Yeah! It's just neat. Why explain where the variables are intended to be used as a comment when the code itself can convey it, right?

C# tip! You can use "{" and "}" anywhere to make a scope. Variables in it cannot be accessed outside!
While I don't use it in a way that has an impact on what the code actually does, I really like doing it just for conveying intent that I can pick up when I read the code later.

Yeah! I mean, I really liked Eternal tho! I just couldn't deal with two enemies (the arch vile and marauder), 2016 just really, really hit the sweet spot on difficulty where it feels tough but fun to overcome.
Eternal doesn't hit that at all, but the easier mode is too easy.

I wonder if I like it! I absolutely loved 2016, but stopped playing at the third marauder in Eternal.
Maybe I need to pick up that Eternal playthrough, that enemy just sucked the fun out of the game. I guess I have to "git gud" but I didn't enjoy the process of gitting gud at that enemy.

Oh yeah, today is an EU election day. By the looks of it, fascist parties are set to gain much more power across EU now.
So, if you're eligible, please vote, so we can counteract that as much as possible.

Since I abstained from voting last poll, I'm using my extra vote this time to keep both Cheese and Chocolate!

On the other hand, we got this Futurama scene, so all in all I'd say it's a win!

https://content.neuralink.com/compression-challenge/README.html <- Neuralink needs help! They're looking for an algorithm that can achieve...
I kid you not: 200x lossless compression
Obvs this is literally impossible. But I feel it could be a fun opportunity to prank Neuralink by making a program that places the actual data somewhere else on the hard drive, and just fills the "compressed" file with noise and a hidden reference to where to locate the real data.
Problem, Neuralink wants source, so obfuscation would be needed

Oh I just want to vote for two options to keep in your next poll :)

Can I vote none of them and get a free bonus option for the next poll? I'll easily let them all disappear into the void for an extra option!
