I feel like Photoshopped isn't really the right word here, you can very easily do much much better using Photoshop. I believe this was actually done using Microsoft Word, just pasted in the image and dragging the letters on there as textboxes. Maybe even Outlook or something, it looks terrible

HOW CAN SHE SNAP?

Aren't most Christians in the US Protestants? Especially the Evangelical Protestants he's always targeting? Does Trump even know what kind of Christians he's trying to please?

I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't know not all Christians actually follow the pope

I think you mean to say:

"Chat, is this generation COOKED?"

My kitchen faucet is like this. It's one of those with single little stalk to regulate both temperature and pressure. Not only do you need to get it precisely right for the correction temperature, you also need to get it right for the pressure. Not far enough up and you get a little drizzle, too far and it splashes everywhere. And the stalk is kind of sticky as well, as you push it there is no movement until suddenly it moves. So making small adjustments is really hard

He will have the concepts of a plan in a couple of weeks. Literally any day now...

When I saw the mirrors in Duke3D for the first time I wondered how they pulled that off. I had made a couple of Wolfenstein like tech demos at the time, going off the published stuff about the algorithms and techniques used by Carmack and Romero at the time (groundbreaking stuff). So I delved into it at the time and the way they did it was to have an identical but mirrored room behind the mirror. The mirror was just a transparent wall. And they had a sprite spawn in that looked like Duke and was controlled by the player.

Mirrors in games are hard.

IIRC that was part of the mission? They wanted to push themselves to see what could and could not be done with a very strict budget and cheap commonly available parts and tools.

Yeah it is kind of the opposite. If you are the computer guy in your friend group or family, everyone asks you about it and expects you to help and know everything. No I design machines for factories, I don't know how to fix your printer.

But with car people it's the other way around it seems, they always want to fix shit for you, even if it isn't really the best option.

Difference being I'm not a car guy, all the car people I know do their own MOT. I think a chief mechanic for an F1 team qualifies as a car person. And I still take it to people I know, I said the mechanic lives 2 streets over.

Whilst I 100% believe this situation can happen and people working around cars are sometimes very sexist, it's total BS.

ALL the friends I have that work on cars, be it for work or for pleasure, do their own MOT. Not like literally do it yourself, only certified shops and people can do it. But you take it to the guy you know. Beforehand you know what needs to be done, cause everyone knows the regulations and what to look out for. Then when that's done, you take it to the guy, give him a case of beers and you have your MOT right there. If the chief mechanic wants to go get MOT for their car, she would take it to a shop where she knows everyone and everyone will know her.

My father in law used to be a mechanic (now retired) and my brother in law is an engineer. They always get mad at me if I let some local shop work on my car. They say just bring it to us, we can do it for you. But they are about an hour and a half away from me and anything we do on my car involves me figuring out on my driveway exactly what needs to be done, taking everything apart and taking pictures and then buying the components. Then driving to them once I get the components in and spend all day drinking, talking and if I'm lucky we get the car done as well. It's a lot of fun, but sometimes I just want to get the car fixed without thinking about it. A local mechanic I know lives 2 streets over, so he picks up my car and uses it to go to work. Fixes what needs to be fixed and drops off the car when he gets home. My father in law says just drop off the car at his place and drive his car for a while, so he can work on my car. But his car is a restored vintage Mercedes and it's his baby, I absolutely hate driving in that because I'm scared I will break something. I'm a pretty good driver and I know how to handle old cars, and I haven't damaged it yet, but driving that car gets my butt clenched all the way.

When my grandpa used to visit every Tuesday, he would join us for dinner, then some coffee after dinner. We would sit on the couch and chat a bit and at some point grandpa would fall asleep. The rest of us just went about our evening, watching some TV, playing a game, just chatting or whatever. After an hour or so, he would wake up, slap his knee, tell us it was a great evening and head home.

It was actually kind of sweet how that old man would fall asleep. That's why you don't fucking elect grandpa to run the country.
