    God I hated that change so much. I only play 2v2 ranked with my buddy now. I never play anything else anymore.

    There was no reason to ruin casual like that. I remember all the whiners on the RL subreddit saying crap like “I want to play a full match with a team!” and all I could think was, then go fucking play ranked! They like to drop terms like “not sweating” to justify ruining casual. Really?? If you don’t give a crap about ranking then who cares what ranking you are in ranked matches? Just go play ranked! And if you’re that mentally weak, then yell at epic to let you hide your ranking from being displayed after matches instead of ruining an entire game mode.

    I miss having a zero commitment game mode that I can pop in while waiting for my buddy to take a dump or something. Now casual is just ranked without the ranking. It still has mmr, you can’t leave without bans, it’s absolutely pointless and might as well not exist. Let me go get my ass slapped by a grandmaster! Or let me show off to a bunch of bronzies. It hurts no one.



  • After reviewing the footage, Sedef realized that the bears always opted for the Anzer honey, proving they have very good taste. According to The Guardian, Anzer honey is “produced from the nectar of 90 flowers that grow only in the mountains of the Anzer plateau.”

    This is pretty interesting. Considering Anzer plateau is in Turkey and this took place in Turkey, I wonder if the bear prefers the honey because it’s truly better or the taste is familiar to the bear, being in Turkey and all.






  • Death Note was my first non-Toonami anime (dbz/voltron/etc). It’s the only anime I could get my wife to check out. Truly awesome. I was 20 when I first watched it and thought Light was awesome. Watching it now 16 years later and man does it hit different. I now view Light as a complete psychopath and actively root against him. Love that my view of the characters is a complete 180 from my early years.

    Legend of Vox Machina is freaking incredible and is probably my most re-watched “anime”.

    I spent nearly 6-7 years developing control systems applications in LabVIEW. While I loved working in LabVIEW, I don’t wish LabVIEW was more popular, but I would love to see a graphical programming language take off. The dataflow paradigm is really interesting to work with.



  • Did you ever happen to visit /r/samandtolki before it was banned? They really gave Boogie hell. They documented lie after lie from the dude. It’s sad how much of a pathological liar Boogie is. The worst one I witnessed was him saying people were swating him. Mod of samandtolki did a FOIA request to Boogie’s local police department and got camera footage from the officer that visited Boogie’s home. Boogie was making a lot of suicide claims and a fan called a wellness check on him. One officer showed up and asked Boogie’s roommate some questions. That was it.




  • What’s intriguing about the discovery is that these objects appear to be moving in pairs. Astronomers are currently struggling to explain them.

    I always hate when science reporting does this. Astronomers are not struggling to explain them, they just don’t have enough data to take a hypothesis to a theorem!

    The article even tells us possible explanations:

    One possibility is that these objects grew out of regions in the nebula where the density of material was insufficient to make fully fledged stars.

    Another possibility is that they were made around stars and were then kicked out into interstellar space through various interactions.

    “The ejection hypothesis is the favoured one at the moment,” said Prof Mark McCaughrean.
