It’'s not just the big cities with homeless problems, it’s basically everywhere that’s not RURAL, and even then you still see them

When other places send them here, it’s gonna be a problem

I get that you’re trying to be uplifting and motivating and whatnot but executive distinction making it quite literally impossible to motivate myself to get up and take those first few steps is the problem here.

That’s nice and you’re very lucky. My PCP told me to schedule an appt with their drugs and mental health department (3 month minimum wait) and that he’d not renew the prescription I’d come to him with.

Then my next Dr was telehealth and kept warning me I needed to see her in person, but never had an appointment open.

Then my next Dr was 45 minutes late to every appointment.

Then my next Dr tried to get me to do IT troubleshooting on my end when he hadn’t joined the fucking Zoom call.

Unions should always back the due process rights of their members…

That’s not what’s being talked about and you know it.

Cool, Nintendo, now stop hindering them with piss-weak hardware and pissing off fans with your anti-fan behaviour

I mean, neither of those bother me anymore now that I exclusively pirate from you, but for other people

Many of us also lived through the era where any 13 year old could steal Mommy’s credit card and rent a botnet for that ezpz

My MC server a decade ago was tiny and it still happened every few months when we banned some butthurt kid

I really love all of the proton products…

Except their VPN. I’m sorry, but their servers trip CAPTCHAs and cloud flare warnings more than 95% of the time for me no matter where I connect from. I really wish it wasn’t like that because it makes the Internet fucking awful to use

Mullvad will just keep getting my 5/month on top of my proton sub, I guess…

I really wonder if enough of us with those exact desires pooled our resources if we could manage an old truck conversion service.

Was gonna turn my dad’s old Ranchero EV when I inherited it before the turd totalled it, it’s shockingly simple all things considered just pricey

God I’m so glad I live in California. We’re not perfect by any means but:

I used to live about 2 BLOCKS from a refinery and never had that experience. The one time there was even a vague issue that “might” have impacted health the FD came by and were like “GTFO were evacuating the area” and I went home that night to a safe and mot-covered-in-bullshit home.

And the supreme Court thinks making that normal everywhere is bad.

I can’t afford that many paper books, man, sorry

Do I have every book for DND pirated as a PDF so that I can reference them, though? maybe

Do I have a digital backup of the Cyberpunk books? totally

Do I have an esoteric collection of random magic items and mobs I’ve seen as I browse over the last 15 years? oh fuck actually did I accidentally delete this folder I literally just realized as I typed this oh no

I just don’t have to time to figure out which is the right one for me, installing it, configuring it, etc

Ah, then you want Mint.

I mean maybe someone smarter than me can tell me a linux distro that will work with world of warcraft, steam, final fantasy xiv, etc.

Mint, ive had no issue with any of those except WoW, whose issue is that I do not play it to test it. it even handled modded FNV better than Windows ever did once I figure out SteamTinkerLaunch

Dalamud (QuickXIVLauncher) even is on the distro software hub for easy download to your system, works great.

So many people go boomer argument mode over this because they don’t like change, but their anger is clearly misplaced. The 3.5mm is not the king of audio connectors and never was, it’s death could very easily have been a good thing.

Why the fuck didn’t headphone makers start offering USB-C devices once phones pulled this move? My PC mobo from 2017 has a C port that could be used for this, I’m certain computers could have easily adapted (and they’re the way smaller market anyway). Is it just because apple had to be special with their lightning bullshit? If so, they’d better start it up now!

Instead of being able to buy new cans with the wire that my phone uses I have to snag an adapter. Not a BIG deal but this change is over 5 fucking years old, we should have these devices as the norm now to avoid all of the fucking issues we’re currently looking at

Until I upgraded to Linux Mint recently I actually DID use a Soundblaster card (modern one from 2018) to drive my super nice headphones and speakers

Too bad mint weirdly hated it despite recognizing it, but the new speakers have a fine DAC so…

have you ever considered not being a dick about things?

Says the guy actively laughing at people he thinks are dumb for using words he doesn’t understand.

the constant hashtags and the way these people write most certainly makes the dense sections difficult to parse

Just ignore the hash tags, imagine they’re a silently pronounced letter.

Do you just like, burst into flames when you encounter dyslexic people?

No, because I am one.

Motherfucker you commented on how the buzzwords make it an impossible to understand word salad and thats what I commented on.

Now suddenly your problem is that a symbol before the words is triggering dyslexia for you so hard that you find it odd that non-dyslexic people can understand it? Pick one

Sorta, it’s more like having your rich parents pay for everything but the “rich parents” is your employer, which is just the corporation you set up to run everything. They usually use a company credit card as their daily use card and leave it to AP to manage

The exact details are of course prickly as fuck but that’s a really basic overview of the idea

Eventually either the IDF will find all of the hostages or Hamas will release them. Then it will end.

Lol, good one.

I’m sorry, but what? All of that is perfectly straightforward and understandable even to someone not steeped in AI buzzwords

Everything said boils down to “we added more AI with a longer memory to some accounts here. It’ll also use a couple of fields from your profile to shape it’s responses better”

Like, it’s really simple tech speak, not buzzwords at all?

The things they do daily (food, travel, clothes, haircuts, etc) are expenses of the charity because they work for them and are the “image” of it

Dump their money tax-free into a charity and then use it to fund themselves anyway

He doesn’t need to control the UN to do what was claimed.

You have no idea when they got COVID. If it was well after Bill’s bullshit then yeah, it’s at least partly his fault.

Masks somehow are very offensive to people.

Somewhere deep down they know that they were wrong and that those death numbers are partly on them. Many of them knew people who died and are likely the potential connection in the chain that killed them.

Rather than realize they were wrong and try to make up for it they turn incredibly hateful towards it in extreme denial. If they admit masks work then they admit they killed their friends and family for nothing
