That’s generally why when you’re younger people tend to put their retirement funds into riskier investments and over time as you get closer to retirement you move portions of your money into less risky things that don’t have the potential volatility of the stock market so that by the time you retire you don’t have to worry about the stock market dipping and blowing out your retirement funds. At least that’s one way to do it; obviously this isn’t investment advice and you should seek your own professional investment advice.

How about both?

There isn’t any CSS used on that page, it’s all using old HTML only styling and I’d wager that it hasn’t really been touched much since, ya know… 1997.

Would you say the same of a parent that gets drunk at night?

It’s probably just some old keyword stuffing/SEO to get the page to show up under searches for all of those keywords.

I always wonder if maybe the devs are wanting an out from finishing the project but still want the cred for working on it. So they make the announcement fully knowing Nintendo will come down on them which will then alleviate them from having to complete the project.

In a row?

It’ll probably be like anytime someone decides to outsource work to a less skilled worker. You’ll either end up with an inferior product or you’ll have to scrap what you got and redo it at the cost of more time and a higher price thus completely negating the whole reason for outsourcing in the first place. So many people making these decisions can’t see past the next quarter on the graph.

I could, but I don’t personally care that much about Vantablack.

There is a group (person) that makes an actual super deep black paint called Black 4.0 and if memory serves correctly they actually started with a jab at Kapoor by originally making the Pinkest Pink paint and banned Kapoor from buying it. Looks like they have a lot of different paints these days and are definitely worth checking out.

As much as I dislike Kapoor, technically Vantablack isn’t a pigment or regular paint by any means. From my understanding it is actually carbon nano tubes with who knows what else mixed in it and I believe it’s actually very dangerous to be around without proper PPE. So in that sense, it makes sense to me that he “owns” it.

Still don’t like the guy though.

Have you ever looked into psilocybin?

I’ll look them up, thanks for the recommendation!

Yeah, they definitely need some way of communicating better without voice, but I’m sure that’s a lower priority right now.

I agree, the readability of what exactly is happening across the whole game or even what’s directly around you can be difficult, but I feel like UI is probably something thar still has a lot of work to be done and is probably a lower priority right now so it’s understandable.

Yeah, I have a feeling I’ll probably be turning voice comms off soonish.

I came to the same conclusion about my usual disinterest in books stemming from me having Aphantasia. The only kinds of books I’ve been able to consistently get through are very comedic in their writing style (e.g. Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Dennis E. Taylor, etc.). I think the focus on humor instead of visualizing the story and its world is what helps me when it comes to reading books.

Pretty strong case of Aphantasia here, it never even occurred to me that people actually saw things in their minds eye and thought it was more a metaphor or something. I do, however, have a very talkative internal monologue. I have a friend who has no internal monologue paired with Aphantasia, I always enjoy talking with them about their experience and how it differs from my own.

It’s really interesting to me how people’s internal experience can differ and how we can never truly know what these different experiences are like.

Oh wow, this is a 9 year old reddit thread? The author of this article is really digging for content.

I’m no scientist, but I don’t really know how you can have a study of a psychoactive drug and the participants not be able to guess if they had the drug or the placebo.

I think we need a bit more attention on the different heating coils in disposable vapes as well. I do my best to get cartridges with ceramic heating coils (so I’m not potentially inhaling burnt metals), but it’s not exactly easy to figure out which cartridges have them and which ones don’t.
