I somewhat got your arguments. I just don't feel the same about current day powertoys. They are not needed, don't add anything useful and don't work in a lot of setups. Current day powertoys are not what powertoys of the past where.
MS being focussed on the wrong shit to soon: well that has been true ever since the company existed. In the end looking back each and every innovation they did was needed but just years too soon and way too rough around the edges. I Guess we'll see the same with ai. Some things will stick and be used by others but refined.
If you don't have the time to read a book,watch a movie or play a game you should not start it.
I'm over 50, like you only have a few hours, i have a tremendous backlog of games i just have to play and a family to provide for.
(mechwarrior clans is the first one which comes to mind but i have dozens)
But i came back for this event. You miss nothing. Every weapon you can "buy" does not really alter the game or changes anything. The standard liberator is still one of the very best primaries.
Some people, especially teachers, burn in your memory.
I had a same"ish" thing with a teacher who tried to flunk me but failed at his own math. Funnily the guy who couldnt count and divide gave general economics, business economics and business administration. He hated my guts and I his.
Anyway, My average was a 8.5, he gave me a 3 for an oral exam thinking he flunked me as it was half of the total average before the written exams.
He Glee fully shared my grade with the class. I reminded him as emotionless as I could that 8.5+3=11.5/2=5,75 so still a pass. And with the written exam on the horizon, which I would not screw up because I was good at it and he would be unable to screw me over on it because written exams are checked by several other teachers as well..
He just lost it. He bursted in flames, started raging and kicked me out of all his classes for the rest of the year. This was in december/January, the exams where in may.
Naturally I passed all his classes with even the highest grades of the school for the written exams. It was very clear to every one he tried to fuck me over when seeing the grades.
Every teacher congratulated me. Asking me how the f i did that without any lessons. Except he. He saw me at the exam presentation, got all red and just fucking left.
I laughed at the loser he was. I still remember the law prof smirking as well over the situation. And his name i cant remember. But this guy who tried to fuck me over because he just didnt liked me.. his name is burned in my brain forever.
And I remember all this to this day. This was in 1994. What an ass that guy was. It was also my first experience that most Adult people are not honest. And that them being nice is mostly a charade. And they will fuck you over for looking the wrong way or especially for a small percentage.
Oh thats what it is being drafted. Choice. Or being given the "choice": stay in prison with a few more years added or take this chance at freedom after a year while being paid.
Yup. And someone is very proud about killing him, safely from a seat far away while sipping Coffee.
And then post this shit.
I dont care who is who or who is right. Pics and vids showing murder (because thats what this is, there was no military gain for killing a single soldier walking alone in the open)
should not be posted.
We will never recover from this new form of warfare. Like the first ww with it's use of chemical weapons. Or the 2nd with its missiles, firestorms (Dresden) and ultimately the atom bomb.
Drones are just as disruptive as those things. They're scary. It borders on terrorism. You cant truly defend yourself from it.
I dunno, I still find m365 family a great deal. 5TB cloud storage for less then 100 euro a year? And get the best most complète Office suite as a bonus?
If you compare that to the competition it's a slam dunk. I need cloud storage. I need an office suite.
Same goes for prime here in NL by the way. Unlimited photo storage, free games monthly, streaming, Luna, free shipping for less then 6 euro.
Never. I sold these things long ago and learned quickly back then they are just scams.
You being lucky is an edge case.
