  • No, I am from Venezuela. It isn’t that level of common, but sometimes you see a biker decide the bottleneck is too much to go between and change to the sidewalk. There is also a few places where it is supposed to be people walking only but some will just get in there for no reason.

    The worst offenders of this are the cops and military, because they usually aren’t on small displacement bikes but massive 1000cc Vstrom and KLRs.











  • sounds closer to my experience, even if there is potentially some regional difference as I am not from the states. I think I was barely high school when I realized I wasn’t christian or even religious, something like 8 years ago. I have to go every Sunday when my mom stopped being inactive in the church. The thing that convinced me was ironically something that was told inside the church. Don’t be a Mormon because your parents are and so you have to, but because you believe and I simply didn’t. The more empirical inclination I had in how the world works simply contradicted all their teachings and realized I was agnostic once I got explanation of what that was.

    Over the years my agnostic belief just got reinforced. Some people need a religion to have hope, to find what is right and wrong or a sense of belonging and just over the years developed those outside of them. Eventually I realized that if I found God is real, it would change nothing for me and if good people shouldn’t get heaven just because they don’t believe in God, is not a worth believing for. So if there is some god real over there and is actually kind, they won’t mind what I believe, only my actions.




  • Doom 1 and 2, and Resident Evil 4 are games just keep coming back with no discernible reason. They are just that good and repayable.

    Side note, recommend checking out MyHouse.wad (ironically, is a .pk3) if you like weird Doom mods. Is extremely high quality and the go as blind as possible.

    Edit: A Link to the Past is also another game I just gravitate towards to replay for no reason. I haven’t played many Zelda games and is the one I like the most.



  • About Linux, I feel Con Kolivas, a former Linux kernel dev said is very accurate. There could be a bug in the kernel that causes desktop use case go to a crawl or freeze can be ignored for years, but Oracle reports there is a bug in the server usecase that causes a 0.5% of performance lost once per month and the same day it will be fixed.

    Enterprise use simply eclipse the focus of the devs to regular people use. Which just only highlights even more why the desktop experience improved so rapidly when Valve decided they wanted Linux for gaming. Simply there wasn’t anyone that cared for the end user experience and wasn’t running their own fork (yes, I am talking about Google).



  • Currently playing Thief Gold and Alien Isolation (depends if I am on the PC or PS4). Alien Isolation didn’t like it much, maybe is because I made the mistake of not playing with headphones, but at the beginning was scared then after repeating the same part multiple times because the Alien (the hospital part), started noticing how it is cheating and the one hit kill made it lose a lot of fear factor. This might have happened because I couldn’t hear the Alien properly and got caught more easily or because the ambient sound is unnoticeable with the overall noise of my house.

    Thief I am liking it a lot, how I am playing it with headphones, I am enjoying the sound design. I can know where every enemy is just with sound instead of relying on a minimap or wall hacks like most modern stealth games do. It has been a really good experience even if it has been mostly playing the first two levels in different difficulties.
