Because mango juice is delicious?

[KingofstarrySkies]

now i have none left, japa

[Tawa]

Well, yes, but you would have run out anyway. Better than having food but dying before consuming it.

Speaking of drinking a lot of something, I did that with beer last night.
A more expensive binge than one of mango juice, that's for sure.

[Egan_BW]

and clearly inferior in flavor

[KingofstarrySkies]

idk dude good manjo juice ain't exactly cheap and beer can get pretty low in price

[Eric Blank]

Theres always alcoholic mango juice to smooth out the decision making process

Theres always alcoholic mango juice to smooth out the decision making process

why would you ruin mango juice

[Rose]

Wait, I just need to be sure of something before we continue.

Is the mango juice fresh, or pre-packaged?

The feel when you play Overwatch for the social interaction but the people you know don't play very often and have become incredibly bad.

Starting to remember why I haven't played Civ4: Caveman to Cosmos for such a long time. Getting near the end of the renaissance era now. Game turn processing takes 3-4 minutes and rising (plus the game crashes every 2-3 turns because civ4 has memory issues). I should have gone with a standard map instead of a huge one. I forgot just how much time all those friggin barbarians and (mostly marine) wildlife take on game turn processing.
I've now ordered all my privateers to stop pirating, and start hunting. Probably won't help much.

YouTube rolled out another update. There's now a few more animated thingies, it takes another full second to load a page and everything is noticeably less responsive.

I can barely look at the Internet anymore with all the solid primary colors and sans-serif fonts. Every website has a big full-screen stock photo slideshow on the front page while all the things you really want are relegated to a mobile-style sidebar you have to pull out, or a tiny little link at the very bottom, or worst of all--it dynamically loads once you scroll down. Everything you mouse over makes a lightbox or some other huge UI element appear. Facebook photos have been literally unusable for years due to "theater mode," which doesn't even do anything except make a dark background appear but it still takes forever to load. Nothing just appears anymore, it has to fade in or slide in or grow from the mouse pointer or slide out in a drawer or fly in on a flaming fidget spinner. An article on a news site isn't just an article, it's part of an endless feed that scrolls up or down. Not everything has to be fucking animated mobile-friendly scaling WebGL NodeJS modern retro metro sleek aesthetic minimalist zen tex-mex user-friendly bullshit cockfuck dick.

I hate modern web design, I really do. There is so little information per page nowadays that it's pointless to look at a modern website until you're two or three pages deep. I had no idea I was so upset about this until I wrote this post.

Hear Hear. Modern web design is painful to say the least. At least Bay12 is still part of the old but gold category where stuff makes more sense.

My budget is excruciatingly tight this week. Excruciating because there is a lot of stuff I need to do and a lot of life I need to live, and none of that is exactly helped along by the constant awareness of my financial situation niggling away at the back of my mind.

EXTREME BUDGETING GOOOO

It's a shame how terrible web design is these days, because I honestly kind of like the minimalist aesthetic awful webpages like those have. If they didn't get bogged down with needlessly fancy page elements trying to make everything look like a computer in a science fiction movie they would probably load faster than the alternative.
