Not again! Ugh
I think they just want to kill Russians anywhere and everywhere. That’s one less that will come to Ukraine. I don’t blame them
Oof. I feel like it’s my generation’s fault somehow, but I don’t think we’re old enough to have kids that are that old. Maybe it was gen X? But I just can’t see either melleniels (my brain can’t spell it right now for some reason) or gen x teaching that? But maybe I’m wrong. Or maybe it’s the greater society that instills it instead of their parents.
Jesus . Did nobody ever teach the kids, if you can’t afford it, do without? (Not counting necessities of course). Like I thought the keeping up with appearances thing wasn’t that big, but I’m starting to see that it’s very real. Like the idea of debt terrifies me.
I see this so much from my coworkers. I could never. I’d rather do without or just steal if I really need something. Credit like that is a trap. I learned that from growing up poor. I’m 36 and debt free and I’m not going back. I’m not buying every day things on credit. I can wait a few paychecks if I need to.
Wait until they learn about zoom lenses.
They smell like a strong chemical smell to me, like sulfur
I mean it’s the same with racist assholes end up having mixed grandchildren. Flips them completely From what I’ve seen
Oh we’re seeing all the bad will caused by the CIA throughout the 60s-80s and countless wars in my lifetime finally catch up with us. People in the Americas and Africa have learned what we did in their countries to keep murderous despots in power in the name of fighting communism and protecting business interests.
All China and Russia had to do to get them to start flipping was a little money, and not even that in some cases.
Just try to live my life like I did during all the bad presidents I’ve had over my life. I grew up protesting against George Bush Jr and my friends still died in Iraq. now I just try to live my best life, and love and help protect others. I’ve always been lower class and on the outside of middle class suburban America, so I’m used to just going about my life, no matter what’s taboo, or illegal at the time. Hell, DnD was the devil when I was growing up and I still played it. I still smoked weed when it was illegal, and I’ll still love a man even if they say I can’t.
The Machine is better than a lot of that stuff lol
What I’ve seen from the average person, torrenting safely is for techies and most aren’t bothered with the effort of it. It’s a low hurdle that most people don’t want to waste time on. Building a local collection takes a shit ton of time. I’m currently rebuilding my music collection to roll my own music streaming server and I’m questioning the time value. But I’m sick of music I like getting deplatformed due to licensing
This so much. Put it up there with Lockheed
Ok I know I’m going to get ripped for this one, but I have a sincere question. I don’t understand how a food dye can create behavioral problems. What chemicals are in red 40, and how are they directly linked to behavior, not just through correlation? Like is there actually proof of this that we’re ignoring? Because I only hear really crunchy moms talk about this, and I take their opinions on diet with a Boulder of salt.
I’m holding my judgment on AI assisted content. I already feel ai writing and image generation is still shitty, I’m less interested in something more complex like a video game.
Also, my 20+ years in the workforce has taught me that large and small companies suffer the same exact problems and both are greedy. Ai will be used to not hire workers, but to increase worker output , not lighten their load.
I trust indie companies to maybe make better content, but I expect them to rip off workers.
Not that I’m defending EA. There’ve ruined so many franchises.
Do you have android or Apple? I was the only one with an Apple. Not saying they’re better, I’m just trying so see if there was a difference or if it was a software thing
It’s criminal that it’s still illegal places. I owe getting off weekend binge drinking to thc.
