Sorry to disappoint but its not a blowback. Its a Tanaka Works M40A1 with a wooden shaft.

Airsoft rifle with shell ejection. Wildly impractical, massively overpriced, ridiculously fun and a real conversation starter.

It’s not being produced anymore so it technically is a collectors item.

I I’m faced with 2 or more choices I used to overanalize them. Thinking logically through pros and cons and choosing what looked best on paper. But more often then not I came to regret my decision at the end.

I came to realize that often when faced with choices I had my mind already made up but I still felt obligated to look at things objectively - not just listing to my gut feeling". But this hindered me to actually do what I wanted to do in the end.

“You” know what “you” want - logic sometimes gets in the way of that.

I didn’t just blindly started to trust my gut on everything. But now, when I’m faced with choices I take note of the first impression I get when they are first presented to me. I use my gut feeling as a “weighting factor”.

Often times when it comes to “This looks better on paper, but this stuck out to me more when I first heard it.” I go with the latter, not the former.

Nvidia’s biggest finacial achievement in their gaming branch was fairly simple, getting rid of the “Titan” nomenclature. That’s it.

Before we had the XX80’ cards and that was it. All you ever needed for gaming was a XX80 Ti. That was the top of the food chain. Nobody ever expected you to have lr need a Titan card - that would have been ridiculous. The Titan card was a mix between gaming GPU and buisness GPU. It was for people who didn’t want to buy a Quadro Series for work and additionally a GTX/RTX Card for gaming. The Titan was the best of both worlds but came with a high price.

But now the XX90’ Series is essentially what the Titan Series was. Except now owning a XX80’ Series doesn’t feel like top of the line anymore. Simply by having a card in a generation with a higher “number” than yours, feels like there’s still a higher tier to achieve or like you’re still in “mid” tier, essentialy. Enough people fell for it and started buying the XX90’ Series as if it where a requirement for modern gaming. And after the XX90’ Series became mainstream, game developers stopped optimizing their max setting for the “mid” tier cards. This I why cards like the 4070 Ti or 4080 S still dip below 60 FPS on 1440p on maxed settings in some titles. 60 FPS on maxed is reserved for a 4090 - maximum settings, maximum graphical fidelity, maximum power consumption, maximum price.

Cops saying “Just a few bad apples”.

Remind me again? How does the full saying go?

I said it one and I say it again. I hate being called “funny”. I want to be called anything but “funny”. Being “funny” to me, is a coping mechanism. I want to be called “dependable”, “compentent”, “smart”, “compassionate”, “a good listerer”, '“charismatic”, “easy going”, “creative”, “strong”, “emapthatic”, “loyal”, “a good friend”, “kind”, “iron-willed” or “good company”.

I know that I’m “funny”, “funny” is all had, have and will ever have in my life and you don’t need to remind me of that.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

What about weakness exercise?

All that for just 40km of coastline access, so couple of filthy old dudes can get even richer.

You escape by finding the six-shooter in the office desk loaded with one bullet.

To be fair, the whole gaming industry has been on its last HP point for the past half a decade.

Didn’t it drop yesterday by like 20%?

The main risk is that you might like it.

C’est la vie. Because it is what it is.

I could go on a 6 paragraph rant about Breath of the Wilds inventory system.

Keep wondering.

Who said anything about the US? Elliot Page is Canadian and I’m talking about a European perspective. Europe even gives you a free offical name change if you receive your citizenship.

Its just a unique circumstance where a male and female name are almost phoneticaly almost identical and not taking advantage of that is kind if an oversight to your own fortune.

It’s like missing a curb by an inch and then getting out if the car to scratch your rims by hand anyway.

What do you mean “when”? Everybody can choose their name at any time, it cost like 300 bucks plus the fees for new passports and the drivers license. Then it’s just a matter of calling all the official faculties to inform them of the change.

Its not some gracefully spiritual thing.

Plus actors and actresses can choose an additional stage name when registering with the SAG.

Only Capcom games. Their demos give you a pretty good idea of what the fully game is going to be and are usually even improved upon. So preordering is mostly a safe bet. Plus you get some early access goodies (which you can also get after release for some extra shmeckles).

Capcom feels like one of the only multiplatform devs that are actually still making games for gamers not for shareholders.
