Need more details to really make sense of this.
There are some things in games that could be parses as annoying or core, depending on what you’re looking for. Like, some people might say not being able to quick save/load is horrible, and being sent back to a checkpoint on death is bullshit. But that’s fundamental to some game loops
Once, I got a whole pizza pie from the place down the street, and ate it while hanging with my cat and playing some nice single player games.
Another time, a friend of mine surprise ordered me Indian food. Ate it while playing video games with the cat.
Different time, was cat sitting for a friend. She ordered me a pie, which I ate while playing games and chilling with the cat.
All were pretty good, really.
The why was “I’m not that close with my family, don’t want to travel, and I’m not seeing anyone who invited me”
I work at a bad place.
Current system is bad. Capitalism sends profits to people who don’t work. Piracy sidesteps a lot of that, and some people send the money saved to people who do work.
Adding to the chorus: switched to Linux. No regrets. Plays all my video games, watches my media, does my coding and office work.
It sucks for everyone but the people in charge are too stupid or apathetic to change anything.
I applied to an internal role like 2 months ago and they’re just ghosting me. Like, I see them on teams. I send them follow up messages. Nothing. Bunch of AI brained assholes.
They’re not trying to make a good product. They’re trying to get their short term gains.
Normal capitalist bullshit where a handful of people (who probably don’t even do any work) make decisions and keep almost all the profits.
Occasionally. It’s frustrating that most free porn sites are kind of bad at search and filter. You’d think a tagging system would be easy to implement but most sites seem to just have a barely functional search.
The majority of the time you just click play in steam, heroic, or whatever. It’s no worse than windows.
I don’t do any tinkering on my desktop.
Workday also gets mad if your resume has “special characters” in it, like quotation marks. Why they can’t sanitize input themselves, I don’t know. Presumably incompetence.
Shouldn’t be allowed. Companies shouldn’t be allowed to buy each other. We already know what happens with consolidation.
Many companies use workday for the job application process, which wants an account. Workday is a steaming pile of garbage.
WTH is a beat cop going to do though?
Enforce hierarchy
I remember once on a forum a big cis het guy was saying that he’s never seen cat calling on the street. Never him, and never at any of his friends. Someone pointed out that since he’s a big dude, he’s probably not going to be catcalled, and other shitty dudes are likely not going to bother people near him because of patriarchy.
To everyone’s surprise, he came back and was like “ok that makes sense. And I asked my women friends and they told me a lot of stories”
Rare to see someone change their mind like that.
I thought the conservative stance was that there’s no systemic racism.
I mean, there’s no limit to how stupid people can be. But I think a lot of conservatives like to say that the racism of the past doesn’t matter anymore. That a family that was enslaved 160 years ago (just beyond living memory now, but potentially someone’s great-great-grandparent), and then subject to Jim Crow and other cruelties through… generously the 1960s but realistically the 1980s, that family has no long lasting effects.
But really it’s important to remember that conservatives just say things. They don’t care about facts or truth. They care about power, and their emotions. So even if you proved that racism was systemic and had measurable effects (eg: The Color of Law), it won’t matter. They don’t care about facts. They care about feelings.
This is funny because many conservatives say things like “facts don’t care about your feelings”, but it’s well known that conservatives project more than movie theaters.
A lot of people died to get the pittances we got from the ownership class. Decades of
The idea that peacefully asking for stuff on its own is effective is largely ahistorical. A happy myth sold by the people who would be receiving violence.
Trying to date someone who’s not interested in me sounds miserable.
Dating someone that I’m not into sounds cruel to them. Unless it’s clearly a, like, casual or otherwise non-invested situation, and they’re aware, but that also sounds hazardous.
My cat will go under the blankets in bed when it’s cold out. He figured this out after many years of living here. Some nights it still takes him a while to figure it out. He’ll jump on the bed. I’ll lift the blankets. He’ll peer under there like he’s never seen this scenario before in his life. After several cautious minutes he’ll usually settle down. If I try to speed up the process by putting the blankets on him, he’ll run out of the room
They won’t learn. They can’t learn. Their ego is too fragile and too wrapped up in disinformation and nonsense. Accepting that conservative policies are bad actually would break their shitty little minds.
We’re not far off from The Smith Act making a comeback. That “we’re going to arrest people who attended a meeting once” stuff is in living memory. The US has never lived up to its stated ideals.
