That's effectively why Microsoft's plan to restart Three Mile Island is stalled out. They want it to be paid by taxpayer dollars despite (as far as I know) having no plans to provide the generated electricity to taxpayers.

I think this may have leaked online at some point (at least one of the cancelled 3D remakes did), and if I recall right it was just an incomplete attempt to remake a few of the game's most iconic battles in 3D.
Might be lurking on an old PC backup on one of my hard drives. I'll have to take a look.
At least we have the Chrono Trigger Plus romhack now, even if I'm disappointed that they haven't implemented the DS version's extra content that linked things better to Cross. And we have a translation of Radical Dreamers (short text adventure game for the SNES that was a pseudo demo/preview of part of Cross's story).
Outside of the original Metal Gear 1 and 2, I'm not sure what other notable games are on the MSX. That said, more cores are never a bad thing. I just wish the price for the Analogue Pocket would come down.
Is it islamophobic to point out that their holy prophet had a bride that is widely believed to have been between six and nine years old when they married, and to have been nine years old when the marriage was consumated?
I get that isn't explicitly encouraging it, but I've never heard of any context that in any way justifies their prophet having sex with a nine year old (not that any possibly could).
Fair enough, but I honestly find it ghoulish regardless of the surrounding terminology.
There are plenty of worse ways for people in good health to make money, and I understand the desire to improve one's personal health and prolong life (assuming you have one you enjoy), but there's just something I find deeply unsettling and intensely objectionable about it all.
Especially when there's all these "adrenochrome" and "vampire" crazy conspiracies giving them air cover so to speak.
Edit: I think what bothers me is that if it does work, it's restricted to the elite, and if it doesn't then we're negatively impacting the donor's health for no reason.
You didn't specifically account for the edge case I personally identify with, which means you're just the absolute worst!
I only skim read your comment and missed the context, so now I'm going to attack a strawman you didn't say!
What frustrates me is that it's not 100% insane, just 95%. There are Silicon Valley CEOs and others that regularly get transfusions of blood from younger, healthier people as a means of improving their own health. The New Yorker wrote about this and some other crazy life extension stuff happening in the Silicon Valley in 2017.
So no tortured babies or adrenochrome, but we do quite literally have people taking blood from the young in an attempt to extend their own lives.
Most people on Lemmy prefer Mastodon, as it's not run by a corporation, and is federated like Lemmy. It's also built off the same underlying protocol, meaning it's interoperable with lemmy.
Fuck everything about that. A family emergency is an emergency. This is only within the ballpark of reasonable if you don'g have the time off to spend and need to have the hours in.
Apologies if you've heard this before:
Something useful to remind yourself is that if you fail to do something you agreed to do, that's you failing.
If your boss can't find someone to do something they need done outside of normal hours, that's them failing.
Likewise if you tell them you can't get something done because you're only one person, it's their responsibility to fix that, not your responsibility to bridge the gap. If it was truly so important to get done, they would have more hands to get it done. Otherwise they're just blowing smoke and it can wait a day/weekend/week/until you actually have time.
More features for our employee account lifecycle automations. The coding isn't as much the hard part as keeping track of all the different moving pieces and how it all interacts.
For example, when using Azure Enterprise App user provisioning to sync data into AD from an HR system, it can only set the Name (separate from DisplayName) property when creating a new user. This limitation isn't documented anywhere I can find, and it doesn't even show as an error in the logs when it tries to update an existing one and fails.
It's the curse of "one man army": this shit is too complicated to keep it all in my head at one time, and also too complicated to bring anyone up to speed in a reasonable time frame. So I'll continue soldiering on with it on my own. Thankfully the end is in sight.
Don't do this sort of shit for any boss that isn't worth it. Mine has no overtime expectations, is very obviously training me to move upward within the team, and each of the last two years I've gotten >10% raises.
Oh neat! I seem to remember some of the blob monster tech being found a long time ago, I think it was datamined from another Valve game or something.
Nice to see it officially aknowledged and some real footage.
