its ok, i understand. ever since the same thing happened to me reckless driving ceased to be much of a thrill, and thats how i learned. sometimes learning comes with a heavy price

its strange tho, even if what he did was stupid, and even though he wasnt as close to me as he was with others, i still had the thought of "it should have been me instead". 80 miles an hour and i walked away with no one knowing. 50 miles an hour and he ended up in a tree

Oh wow, you live in the same state as me. Athens isn't even that far from where I live.

Wifi gets easily overwhelmed, my ethernet is stuff due to a problem with my computer and tends to die at random for a few seconds to a few minutes. I basically use wifi as a backup to ethernet.

Not really. Ion engines are a thing that are used in exactly that scenario.

That might have been what they were referencing then.

how are you making your lines?
most of that image was automated, but it's not too hard to put together decent lines by hand either with some work, and there are a lot of different ways to do linework too

Freehand pen over featherd line sketches. Problem is that for that I need thicker lines, since thinner lines need more precision to look good, which makes every line longer than like 8mm a loving challenge.

This is actually pretty cool. I knew there were electrical engines, but I was under the impression they sucked stuff and were only useful if you let them accumulate speed over years. Apparently my info came from extremely outdated sources.

I wish I could make lines look clean like that, but for some reason they look really weird and unnatural when I use vector tools.

I built a precision bomber that can beat all the levels. It's cute. It also beats all the new levels.

The Five nights fanbase is like condensed autism. It's like autists got bored with lego and minecraft, so they had to find something else to obsess over.

Looks interesting, not a big fan of the flat, minimalist design though. The drawing function seems a big gimmicky. I can see use but I sure as forget won't be drawing all over my webpages, I have GIMP for that.

probably because downloading games uses a lot of bandwidth. kinda goes without saying

Downloading as well as playing. Not to mention automatic updates.

Yes, but we also need more jobs for the lay workers, which is why we need to go into space. Space mining is the future, send a ton of robos into space and have people control them to mine asteroids and stuff. It would be totally rad.
