u have contributed to cathook? big smh (PRs seem like only trivial typo fixes, but it implies u have used it?)

+1 for Good taste. U an eco person?

More science fiction-ish recommendations:
1. The Broken Earth Trilogy! (I've read the first two. Both were insanely good.)
2. U.K. Le Guins science fiction!
3. The Windup Girl!
4. I like Neal Stephenson's books, but some are maybe a bit much.

Personally didn't like the Foundation trilogy too much? I read them off-and-on over the course of like 2 years though.

"Far more likely"? (Not that all or even most cops are racist, but) do you expect a bunch of often poorly educated people in a historically super racist country to not be frequently racist? You're ignoring the near unanimous experience of black people. If those were the actual causes for abuse of power, which seem unrelated to race, wouldn't white people have more stories to tell about it? The worst I've heard is when my dad got a ticket on Christmas Day for driving too slowly...
There's even been a bunch of stuff where machine learning algorithms were trained on historic data and end up being super racist, even when race isn't included as a data point because stuff like zip code is correlated with race (I hope you can figure out why!) This is a real thing that smart scientists are studying! (just mentioning that to affirm that there are people who recognize and care strongly about racism besides 19 year old liberal arts majors) Like... It is categorically undeniable that there are still massive race issues in the U.S.

What if solder had six rockets.

so does your mom

Oh! I actually made a Linux version of this, so I have an idea of how it works! (it works with my mouse and it's a bit incomplete. I was actually planning to fix it up soon for all the sociopaths who game on Linux with mouse accel...)

What settings have you tried? I think you can match your tf2 accel pretty closely.
If you haven't tried them yet, these settings may work:
sens = 1
accel = 1.02 (or try .02)
sense cap, speed cap, or offset all set to 0
power = 2 (it subtracts 1 for some reason. Quake live does this too apparently, idk.)
pre/post scalars = 1
probably (?) no angle/angle snapping.

Still euphoric

AFAIK, modern operating systems will effectively free most memory allocated by a program when it's terminated.
So, maybe tf2 itself isn't causing it because I would think you could just restart tf2 for its allocated memory to go away. Maybe it's caused by a driver or something more persistent that continues running after tf2 is closed?
Definitely use some tool to check memory use though!

in theory, open sourcing stuff is supposed to make it easier to find bugs/exploits because there are "many eyes" looking at it, but afaik that doesn't really hold in practice. I.e., the linux kernel being open source doesn't make it significantly more or less secure than it would be otherwise (though super smart researchers can experiment with testing/analysis tools on the kernel to find bugs, but that's different than this situation imo.)
Something major may be found, but who knows :-/

nice

share your favorite puppy videos for cheering up ;-;

Blaze! :-3

IMO that doesn't really make sense.
1. Biden is probably only running for this term? https://www.politico.com/news/2019/12/11/biden-single-term-082129

2. I'm also not confident that it will be very easy to return to normal after four more years of trump, let alone rapidly implement progressive policies... things seem to be getting worse and worse with him since he's fired all the people who would tell him "no" :-/. There's stuff we still haven't even seen the consequences of. (I.e., we're just now seeing the effects of him axing cdc funding and removing house pandemic response team two years ago)

unfortunately, American politics may affect people in the rest of the world

I'm voting for who ever is nominated :-(. I like Bernie over Biden, but if Biden is nominated he's who I am voting for.
If anyone is concerned with his mental health: trumps mental health
If anyone is concerned with his record: trumps record in like the last six months is worse.

I always thought it was moderators :o

any hobbies outside of gaming and computer stuff?
