I love Skald Against the black priory, and I've also started The wandering Village. Both well under that limit!

And those agents are probably just doing a lot of refactoring perfectly fine code just to have the AI doing something.

Thank mr skeletal

I left work early one day and was driving home on some back roads. I got behind a jeep that started to slow and drift into the other lane. He kept drifting and went off the road, jumped the bank and went into a very deep quarry pond. I heard a splash and pulled over and called 911. While on the phone I heard a yell for help and hung up (I didn't think to stay on the line until after) and ran across to find this guy barely treading water. I swam in and helped him to the bank and talked to him until the emergency services arrived.

Turns out he had some severe internal bleeding and passed out driving. The cold water woke him up, but he was too weak and disoriented to swim.

If I would have left work 5 minutes earlier or later, or if he didn't have the top off on his jeep, he would have died and nobody would have known where. The pond was deep enough that even the vehicle wouldn't have been found.

I enjoyed the demo for Heroes of the Seven Isles. I bought the full game when it came out but haven't had a chance to play it much. Really fun old school point and click adventure puzzle game with hand drawn doodle-style art.

I use LibreWolf, and I do have issues with a few sites (my local utility company's bill pay only works on chromium), but I still refuse to use a chromium based browser except for those specific sites.

It is inconvenient, but it can still make a difference. If sites that have chromium only functionality see that enough FireFox users are trying to use the site, they may update it. I know web devs check those kinds of metrics.

Someone at work made a "who on earth uses FireFox" comment recently, like it was some obscure and inferior / outdated software (our company includes FF as part of the standard image for both PC and Mac users). I did not go into my "why chromium is evil" rant, but I did tell them how to adjust their settings to fix some performance issues they were having with it. I'm pretty sure they still switched to Chrome.

Yeah absolutely. It's a very different experience. I was just pointing out that they are other different reasons to prefer not to do residential service calls that don't apply to retail. There are a lot of extra steps for retail but it's all an established process. The guys I talk to that have done service call work all have absolutely insane stories.

I've talked with people in HVAC who have said the same. It's much easier to provide a service to a business than random individuals.

However, this is different, as this is just a retail product. Micron doesn't have to deal with the person who doesn't pay after the job is done, or doesn't lock their dog up because "he doesn't bite, it will be fine" and it turns out to be an aggressive monster. This is just assembly line production that they already are set up to do.

I get that they have a limited number of inputs and they are just choosing to make as much money as possible. It sucks to see that go, though. Crucial has always been my go-to for RAM.

And then power toys shortcuts conflict with the standard shortcuts and requires a ton of fiddling and customizing configs. You know, the thing windows users always say is a reason they don't want to use linux.

That should also come up in a reviews also. Not trying to imply one guy should get fired as a scapegoat, just talking from experience how much it sucks to know your code caused major issues.

So the actual outage comes down to pre-allocating memory, but not actually having error handling to gracefully fail if that limit is or will be exceeded... Bad day for whoever shows up on the git blame for that function
