@Tsaukpaetra Didn't say it couldn't find it, just said it couldn't open it -- perhaps because it was locked in a way that prevented reading (virus scanner, mark of the web) or writing (virus scanner, concurrent build, loaded into another executable like UnrealEd or a service).

True. I think it's more "I don't want to open it because the Engine is out of date", 'cause I could open it fine and tried deleting them (which worked).
Now, 1988 compile steps later we'll try again...
Edit: Off-by-one alignment.
Edit edit: Fuck didn't work anyways.
Fucked up the flag files that indicate whether the build was successful so it would rebuild the mentioned dlls. That worked.
C++ is fucking magic.

I thought "pussy breath" was a little too on-the-nose. And "vagina breath" is just vulgar.

Status: Why is my wireless driver maxing out a CPU core if my laptop is perpetually (including currently) set to airplane mode?
My bet is on:
- the driver tries to do something with the wireless hardware
- it gets an error because wireless hardware is disabled in airplane mode
- "Mmhh, that function call failed. Let's try again until it succeeds."
- GOTO 1

i believe i have the requisite equipment, and access to a thesaurus so that i could construct a scenario where that would apply.

@Tsaukpaetra I've had that before. Annoying as hell. Repeatedly trying to build fails. "Can't write".
del stupid.exe
in cmd works perfectly fine. And then the build works.

Freedom Day
Is that an Americanism I'm not aware of?
No, they're just days when I can stop paying specific bills.
I didn't account for alot of stuff here...the snowball effect, expected purchases after June 2020, payouts as business me repays person me, potential layoffs, etc. My new year's resolution was to close two credit cards this year. The chart's not encouraging but there's an outside chance that I could make it if I do everything right.
That's "freedom from usury" day. "Freedom from Derpsylvania" day is April 2022. "Freedom from business day" is December 2024 even if I have to spend new year's eve dumping cases of Batman figures in the river.

@Zenith said in The Official Status Thread:
the snowball effect
The debt snowball method is a debt reduction strategy where you pay off debt in order of smallest to largest, gaining momentum as you knock out each balanceThat doesn't sound intuitive. I'm finished for this week so I'm not doing any more math, but I'm almost certain that ordering according to interest is the correct strategy.
The debt snowball works because it’s all about behavior modification, not math.
Ah, I see, guess it's a people thing. Personally, I'd stick to math.

Snowball method was the closest I could find because . The part I use is to keep paying a constant $X divided between fewer and fewer bills. Interest rates are so close it doesn't really matter which of them dies first.

I know the Bad Ideas Thread is , but maybe we could have invite-only groups and categories that are echo chambers for the far-left and far-right, respectively, for those who want to talk about issues the other side consider inflammatory without starting an argument.

Somebody joked “they just tried sounding” “what right here on the couch?”.
It reminded me of you, but they were just playing around with a Harry Potter wand. Everyone has their clothes on.
