Sorry, I think I didn't express myself properly. My point was that the people involved in those movements unfortunately are not allowed to stop caring about them, as the problems they denounce won't magically go away.

There is way too much to unpack in this comment, so I'll just laser focus on how incredible it is that you somehow managed to rationalize "we are ok with trans people existing" and "they should live by the rules of the m

Out of curiosity, why does being an immigrant make you lean towards conservatism? You realize one of the biggest conservative talking points in the past 4 years is how immigrants are “stealing” their jobs?

Must be nice to be able to not care about those things.

I am most definitely talking about Sims 2. I play the Origin version through Lutris, from when they gave it away for free.

We're in agreement then. My ideal world is one where we have cities designed for public transportation (including walking), which would eliminate or at the very least reduce the current problems those methods of transportation currentl

The problem is we're currently living in the opposite situation, one which is so normalized most people don't even realize it. We have entire cities built around and for cars instead of people, with public transportation treated a

It wasn't even 30 minutes ago that I read someone defending a nuclear war as it would (paraphrasing) "solve the problem of overpopulation while also taking down some commies".

I like the regex example, but the others wouldn't pass code review from me, unfortunately. Reducing a couple lines isn't worth the code being less obvious.

The reason why I'm against self driving cars is simply the fact that they're cars at all. I sincerely have no idea why we are collectively spending so much time and resources to avoid the solution we've had for years: public

How do you know people want these things? Do you actually think “yay! I love that this new game has a battle pass system and lootboxes” is a common sentiment? The point is that there is no choice . Sure, companies are very likely making mo

This might sound like an extreme take, but I want people who don’t work hard to be able to live.

The down payment is probably more significant than what your comment lets on. While I haven’t experienced this, it’s not uncommon to hear young people complain that their rent is more expensive than a lease and there’s nothing to be done ab

It’s not conspirational to assume that advertising and marketing is part of forming the status quo, by virtue of those fields literally exploiting human weaknesses to do so. If they simply reflected what consumer want, not only would they n

I took a sabbatical month between jobs, living in a (somewhat cushy) emergency fund, and while we were traveling my partner got sick with something and had to be rushed to a hospital. I called an ambulance at 7AM, and by noon she was back i

Who is "us" here? Abusive customers? I can't fathom someone coming into a store being nice as expected and a retail over fucking them over just because.

I'm not entirely sure what the point of updating Wine is in the first place. If you have a version that works with the game you're trying to play, why not pin it? Things definitely tend to break with Wine upgrades by nature of wha

I’m a huge fan of Wine, but there’s no reason to run Factorio under it. The native Linux version works flawlessly from my experience, and I’m even using a distro where problems with native binaries are common.

Google Meet is a browser app.

For desktop, I guess. On mobile I have to zoom and pan, which isn't a great experience.

I'm not entirely sure I understand your comment, but I'm advocating for the opposite. The ROI for a vacation isn't negative, because you're usually paid during those. In the situation that you're not, it just streng

The company I work for now has a similar approach. I showed a personal project and eventually got an offer. It's not even a particularly great one, as I had not worked on it in a couple years.

I stopped caring about this by having home-manager do all this for me. I don't really care where the files are anymore because I change them through Nix, not directly, and I can choose where that is located.

Everything is slow when the goal is to just complain about things you don't understand.

I played it for a bit but the combat felt like it was optimizing for spectacle rather than depth or satisfaction. Diablo III delivered the top-down grindfest fantasy better for me, so all throughout I kept asking myself why I wasn't pl

Taxes are the least soul-sucking aspect of this. I've spent an unreasonable amount of my life playing MMOs, especially the Korean ones, where most of the time the goal is to make (in game) money to get strong enough to take on the next

That was my inclination as well, but the grand parent comment being said unironically wouldn't be the weirdest thing I've seen on this website :p
