i’m surprised stories like these haven’t been all over the news with constant tech layoffs

or worse, it could introduce unfit behavioral factors into the gene pool

i literally gave up on the last boss after 100%ing the rest of the game. just a brutal experience and there’s no carrot left to make me grind it out for a couple hours.

shut the fuck up. let me die in peace.

it’s gravity’s rainbow not gravity’s bilbo

i appreciate the old ones! it’s interesting to see why someone would revive an old post, and there are some (usually active community drama) that can keep going for days and wouldn’t show up anywhere else.

it occurs to me this most closely mimics old web forum sorts.

i like the new comment sort since it’s like a hybrid of new and active. yes, 0 comment posts will show up there.

i cycle between this and new comments, good mix of heavy hitters and diverse diaspora

HHHHHHHUUUUUUUNNNNNNNTTTTTTTEEEEEEERRRRRRR

imagine that

absolutely perfect response

this is so insane on its face that the first place my mind goes is, were they about to unionize?

your forefathers gave the universe a name, and you speak it.

lol they are the lab rats for unholy ultracapitalist social experimentation in the quest for endless growth. we hit diminishing returns expanding outwards a hundred years ago so now we’re colonizing human eyeballs and attention spans and it’s not looking great for the colonists.

lmao shoutout to riot not putting a mention of legends of runeterra into the league client until after its pvp mode was abandoned

wfh 99.9% since 2020. my slice of software dev has really embraced it as part of the culture - most job opps are still remote, enough to filter out any in person or hybrid. love it, could never go back to commuting and socializing in person. i struggle sometimes with productivity/adhd but that happened in the office too. so many days just spent fiddling on my phone with one ear listening for footsteps. i keep getting hired/promoted so despite my shortfalls i must be doing something right.

legiterally

1. karma is meaningless to seo outside of account restrictions. the people doing this as a job aren’t doing it for imaginary internet points

2. it doesn’t matter what individual instances do as long as the largest ones have open signups

lol better get out there and start demanding alcoholics hand over their licenses then
