It’s frustrating how many assumptions people make about your beliefs just because you are trying to make a purely fact-based correction. Like if I try to say something like “the victim was actually armed when they were shot by the police” (made up example) people just instantly assume I’m a fascist bootlicker when I’m really just trying to get the facts straight. It’s just that misinformation that goes against prevailing opinion gets instantly swatted down but misinformation that validates people’s opinions is tolerated way more than it should be.

Yeah suing his therapist is NOT what op needs to be doing here

They really had something there with Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn. The aesthetic of the movie is cool, I didn’t hate watching it in theaters even though it’s pretty dumb.

Illegal take but I actually do like smart TVs. Unless you never use any streaming services, it’s a useful feature that would otherwise require an external device to do the same thing. Now if you have your own home server or something, that’s cool too, but that’s more hassle than I want to deal with.

Hmm how about CRT monitors/televisions? Not that common these days but they are basically little particle accelerators that shoot electrons at a pretty good fraction of the speed of light (like 30%). But I guess that’s not really an answer to you question unless you define electrons as objects. I guess my other answer would be airbags which deploy at about 300 kmph

Haha just reading your comment cou

Women watch more lesbian porn then men (as a proportion of their total porn consumption). And women apparently make up 37% of the viewership on pornhub so that’s a very significant amount of lesbian porn viewership, if not an outright majority.

It’s not 1960 anymore

“Like your job. Love your wife.” - Dell from Trains, Planes, and Automobiles. You can generalize that to say, your job is just a means to an end. Don’t work a job you hate, but look elsewhere for true fulfillment in life.

Upside down smiley is used as like a smile-through-the-pain, everything is fucked kind of reaction, similar to melty smiley. Similarly the blushing smiley is usually deployed ironically. Or maybe my friends are just really sarcastic haha

You’re getting apples for 10 cents a pound at a grocery store?! Nah there can’t be right

Depends on the thing and the mood I’m in. Sometimes I just have to be pragmatic - my life will be better in the long run if I do this because I’ll keep my job, my house will be clean, etc. Sometimes the thing I’m doing is just really fun. Sometimes it’s fun to just check boxes, like your completing tasks in a videogame. And finally, once you’ve established a habit like exercise or stretching or learning a language, it just feels wrong to not do it every day.

Everyone knows 67 = basketball star Lamelo Ball’s height (6’ 7"). It’s a reference to a song that talks about that. It’s now just a silly in-joke reaction to hearing/seeing the numbers 6 and 7, literally the exact same thing as millenials and 69.

Well not everyone knows that I guess - just everyone cool!

Also how weird is it that 2 of the biggest memes of the past decade - the dab and 67 -are both made famous by sports stars based in my hometown of Charlotte, NC (not exactly a cultural mecca)

Seven Devils by Florence and the Machine is a fun one :)

Ok, well I wouldn’t call that “grift” to be honest. The video you linked repeatedly says “Sabine is not a charlatan”. I do think she leans into science controversy a bit more than she should, and branches out from where she’s an expert, but those are less serious “crimes”. I also think her gripes about academia are not completely without warrant and I can’t blame her for acquiring a following of people that are trying to use her criticisms to further their own phony conspiracies.

I used to subscribe to her a couple years ago but stopped. What do you mean by grift?

We’ll see I suppose. I will add, though, that exclusive games absolutely do drive people to Xbox or Playstation (or Nintendo). Not a deal-breaker for most people, but a factor for some people.

Part of that is probably all his apps got nuked?

Nah I still don’t get it. Windows PC gamers don’t have to think about compatibility at all right now - every major game release is compatible with windows, apart from some Nintendo exclusives. You dont even have to think about it - when a new game is announced I know I will be able to play it on Windows without jumping through any hoops. Even if it’s a simple check mark for every game it’s still more work, and many games are gonna be blocked because of anti-cheat.

I also think that very few casual phone/tablet gamers are going to be purchasing a dedicated Linux gaming machine that isn’t a daily driver computer. Heck, most Americans don’t even have a desktop nowadays. I don’t think there’s a price out for the steam machine yet but we’re talking over $1000 right? Probably more like $1500 once you factor in peripherals? That’s a TON of money for a casual tablet/phone gamer to drop on something that they won’t also be using as a regular computer.

I guess, but anyone buying a steam machine is gonna have to research the specs anyways, and more exhaustively, check to see if every game they like is supported. I get why open-source enthusiasts are excited about this project and I am to, but in my opinion the cross-section of people who a) aren’t willing to build their own PC or even research different options and b) are willing to daily drive Linux are pretty slim. Especially when they find out they can’t play BF6.
