We shouldn't have any bugs in this day and age. For example, if you're missing a dependency then why doesn't your program try to, I dunno, download that dependency to the program's installation directory and use it there? Seriously there are very few problems that are unsolvable! ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────┘ --- #2 fediverse_boost/6405 --- ◀─╔════════════════════════════════[BOOST]══════════════════════════════════─────╗ ║ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ ║ ║ │ maybe i should just work on my memoir... │ ║ ║ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ║ ╠─────────┐ ┌───────────╣ ║ similar │ chronological │ different ║ ╚═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╧══─────╝─▶ --- #3 fediverse/5807 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────── I'm wasted on this century. nobody even believes in magic anymore ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────┘ --- #4 fediverse/1582 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────── @user-698 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9EKV2nSU8w This video is 5 years old but it's relevant ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────┘ --- #5 fediverse_boost/6270 --- ◀─╔════════════════════════════════[BOOST]═════════════════════════════════──────╗ ║ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ ║ ║ │ I am once again begging people to understand that “the government” already knows you’re queer whether you do elaborate online opsec dance rituals or not, and if they decide to just start shooting people for being gay, they’ll do it whether the evidence is airtight or not. is that grim? yes. but you can stop giving yourself undercover superhero identity PTSD about it │ ║ ║ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ║ ╠─────────┐ ┌───────────╣ ║ similar │ chronological │ different ║ ╚═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╧═──────╝─▶ --- #6 fediverse_boost/6357 --- ◀─╔════════════════════════════════[BOOST]══════════════════════════════════─────╗ ║ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ ║ ║ │ External post: https://tech.lgbt/users/paleblueyedot/statuses/115644789217659891 │ ║ ║ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ║ ╠─────────┐ ┌───────────╣ ║ similar │ chronological │ different ║ ╚═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╧══─────╝─▶ --- #7 fediverse/1028 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────── there's this really fun video game I like to play called "Legion TD 2" - it's based on a Warcraft3 mod. In this game, you make tactical and strategic decisions on a fixed term - a competitive game between 4 or 8 players with an incredible array of randomness. it teaches you to work with what you got, and to make decisions based on your opponent's weaknesses. Good luck figuring out what they are, though, as you can't just memorize them out of a book. You need to adapt, in the moment, to the decisions of your foes, while primarily focusing your attention on accomplishing a different task. I really like it because it's taught me to be strategic in plenty of other ways. I used to love the game Overwatch because it required adaptibility. The game was always changing, so no strategy stuck forever, but every match you'd play against a slightly different opponent. but then Blizzard changed the game because they wanted to make more money, and it got worse and worse at what I liked about it.

However I bought it used, and the battery was worn out or something because it wouldn't save! But still I played that single game for months on my gameboy color, trying to see how far I could get. I had a level 40+ Totodile (or was it Crocanaw? I forget) and unfortunately one day I took it on a 30 minute car ride, expecting the battery to last at least 30 minutes, but unbeknownst to my child self there was construction on the way, which turned it into a 4+ hour drive. I couldn't believe it! The battery died, and I lost my save file... I was heartbroken. T.T Next time I played, I learned a lot. I actually read some of the dialogue text, and learned you could use pokeballs to capture pokemon I was so dumb I was using a single character to get through the game. What a n00b. Anyway when my mom heard about my tribulations she bought me Pokemon Gold, which I played quite a bit less. I was focused on other things you see, like Dragon Warrior Three.
