One of the most insightful blind spots a person can have is assuming that those who created before us were incapable of expressing themselves ironically. Most of our recovered text fragments from society are not grand tracts, but small people in small social spheres communicating to their peers in ironic or comical fashion. A lot of religions encourage this blind spot, while insisting that their belief in an immortal soul is the only thing that can grant common humanity. The reality of religion, the common thread of humanity that we all return to, is shitposting. And death, but while we're alive, shitposting.
Unpopular opinion: I'm glad Jimmy Carter is dead, maybe the US can escape his particularly toxic brand of respectability politics and not lionize an actual genocidal idiot.
After I complete this tutorial series on systems security, I might (slim chance) be able to explain how tradebots work.
Protip: don't store secrets as plaintext. I don't care if the API tutorial says you can do it, I don't care if the CS teacher you had in undergrad said you can do it, I don't care if your cleric says you can do it; encrypt things you don't want other people using.
Explained the Josh/Jessica situation to my dad after he overheard a reaction video. I have never felt so stupid in my life, and I've done a lot of stupid things.

X4 is fun. Hope to stream it sometime after I save up to tune my rig... and also stop dying to Xenon incursions during the early game.
