@lemmygrad.mlI'm in my 30s and more than a few of my childhood friends are moving back in with their parents because rent is so fucking expensive in our area. When I was younger there was that "haha you still live with your parents??" sentiment but it feels weird to think that now
For the past ten years… I don’t think I ever ended a session of a player vs player match - “happy.”
Yeah I had this same realization a while ago when I used to almost exclusively play competitive games. When I lost a match, at best I just felt bad, and at worst I was pissed because I got my ass kicked by some little shit taunting me over voice chat or something. When I won I just felt okay or maybe relieved, but not really good or happy. Either way when I stopped playing I was usually in a worse mood than when I started.
Now I mostly play single player games and have a lot more fun. After I close out of the game I feel satisfied and like I genuinely enjoyed the time I spent playing it. No more getting needlessly stressed out or having my day ruined because of a game. Also it helps that when I need to answer my phone, get a package at the door, etc. I can (usually) just pause the game and come back no problem.
idk if he has since changed his views but at one point he said he'd be okay with bombing the DPRK again
I’d expect the same out of a machine I might potentially have to, say, deliver a pregnant wife to the hospital in.
lol first thing I thought of too. I've been in emergency situations where I needed to get to a hospital immediately and if my car did this I'd be fucking livid. As dangerous as motorcycles are at least I know that mine will never fail a software update or some shit, and if it doesn't start I can just bump start it to get it going and then figure out what's wrong later.
I'm no luddite but there's beauty in a machine that's designed to be as simple to operate and maintain as possible
the r/games thread on this has no less than three comments calling it "aUtHoRiTaRiAn" lol
it's so funny how many examples of these dueling headlines there are lol. it's like a new meme format
I know it's reddit so of course it's gonna be racist but I feel like the last few weeks have been especially bad on r/linux. I swear in that time span I've seen like 4 posts that basically amounted to "Distro from China... DAE China bad???"
You'd think people who were interested in open source would be more open minded but instead it's just a bunch of libertarian STEMlords. Also I guarantee if any other distro's twitter account like Fedora or Debian reposted that image none of these losers would bat an eye
god this gives me flashbacks to a few weeks after elden ring released when I got downvoted into the negative triple digits for daring to criticize the game in r/eldenring lol
we saw it when Obama had a supermajority in 2008 I believe; they just said "it takes time to change things" like expecting the dems to do anything during it was expecting too much
