This is a reference to Warhammer 40k, a tabletop gaming / book / video game franchise

The Orkz in the setting paint their war trucks red because they believe it makes them go faster. And it does, in fact, make them go faster

I'd be okay with that. The key thing is we need to do more than we're currently doing because the system is broken

You know what would be way better than a symbol for "healthy" food would be requiring manufacturers to label food that fails to meet standards as "unhealthy." Bonus points if you tax it to death so it's no longer economically viable to sell garbage and label it "food"

Like, shit, the public perception is that I can't afford healthy food anyway. But at least if the unhealthy food was also labelled it'd be easier to avoid

I heard someone remark once that "If it's clean enough to put back on your body, it's clean enough to be put back" and that changed how I look at things

Although in practice, I either hang stuff up on hooks on the back of my bedroom door, toss things on The Chair, or use half-dirty laundry to cover up the shame of the unused exercise equipment. Old habits are hard to break I guess

"Winter holidays" that's a good one, excuse me while I cry in capitalism

In a high court judgment handed down in May, Mellor said that Wright presents himself as an extremely clever person, “however, in my judgment, he is not nearly as clever as he thinks he is”. He said he was an “extremely slippery witness”.

Sick burn from the judge

You can't teach a computer to feel because computers lack the hardware for emotion.

You might be able to emulate a feeling in a convincing way. This means that computers will always be somewhat sociopathic.

So to your question, I think that means they can mirror their inputs or fake feelings according to their programming

Dream big, Irwin. I know you've got it in you

I haven't developed for mobile, but I have played around with pixel art in games. Here's a guide which probably outlines the why of it better than I can.

It sounds like to git rid of the black bars, you want to open ProjectSettings/Display/Window/Stretch and set Mode to Viewport and Aspect to Expand.

I grew up near the mountains, and now I live near the sea.

I find myself missing the mountains, there aren't really any near here.

The sea has its perks though. It's influenced a lot by the weather, so it feels like it has its own character. If you're close enough, it has its own white noise too.

I've been through the prairies of Saskatchewan and let me tell you that view's a trip. They say if your dog gets out you have three days where you can watch him go before he's lost

I've just received a couple cases of clementines which are approaching the end of their life.

I've never cooked with them, normally I just peel and eat them. I'm not sure if I'm up to the task of eating all these in the next few days. So if you've got some tips on something I could do to make them last longer I'm all ears

We have this phenomenon where I live where people won't leave your house. Just as they're getting up to go they'll start telling another story. They'll put their shoes on and have another tale to tell. Then with one hand on the door they'll be reminded of something else.

Please get out of my house. I love you, but go.

Image Transcription:

Everett and Mrs True are entertaining two guests. One of the guests stands to leave: "Well, True, I guess we'd better be going home."

Everett rises out of his chair, knocking it over: "I'm glad to hear you say that! I'm tired and sleepy and I have to get up early in the morning! For heaven's sake, don't sit down. Good night, GOOD NIGHT!!!!"
