There is not much else to say. I got a text from “my bank” that a payment was due. They shorthanded the bank name, spoofed the correct area code, and even knew my normal payment date. Nothing is sacred and that’s the new reality.

Exactly. They fumbled hard. “It has to be your ____, there’s no way it turned out that good naturally.”

Man, it sounds like you’re either trolling or flip-flopping to avoid changing your current habits. You’ll deflect what I am showing, but not what the commentor before me put. Decent question for Lemmy; I enjoyed answering, troll or not.

Take away what you want from this. I support you reading positive mindset material every day.

I mean, you could guess that, or you could google it and find out. #1 ranked yuri series is written and drawn by Nio Nakatani who also makes Touhou Project doujinshi. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nio_Nakatani?origin=serp_auto

I, too, have unskipable cutscenes over my special interests.

“I don’t want to see heterosexual couples holding hands or kissing in public. It’s degenerate.”

From a website that specializes in things that impact the LGBT+ community and perceptions.

Yaoi and Yuri manga have had a profound cultural impact, significantly influencing perceptions of LGBTQ+ relationships both within Japan and internationally. These genres offer crucial representation and visibility for same-sex relationships, helping to foster greater understanding and acceptance among readers. By depicting romantic and emotional connections between same-sex characters, Yaoi and Yuri manga challenge traditional gender roles and societal norms, presenting diverse expressions of love and identity.

It definitely supports them, even if indirectly. The more reads online and manga bought, the higher that genre will appear in lists of top media. Therefore, underage kids who lie and say they are 18 are also more likely to be exposed to it. I’d advise you to just change your opinions and enjoy what you like, but this is the internet and I try to stay realistic.

I tried to have something else lined up each time, but tbh the financial hit from quitting a job where I was overworked was not nearly as bad as how I felt after my job each day. If you have some skills, offer to do oddjobs. Offer to detail friend’s cars, mow lawns, and pump up the quantity of applications.

TLDR: Yes it does.

Awareness and support normalizes behavior that many believe (me included) should be normalized. You should stop doing something you enjoy because of how it might indirectly support others and because it exposes you to thoughts and ideas that aren’t your own.

Easy to figure out? But that plays right into their scheme of making the other party look like they were comitting fraud. /s

Agree. Not enough info for me to judge. Maybe Lemmings shouldn’t make this site into one for snap judgements and witch hints.

Doing the same here for Dragon’s Dogma 2.

I’m not well versed in how Denuvo works, only in how it tanks performance. Does anyone know if there is anything stopping Denuvo from checking purchase validity the first time, and on subsequent game launches it can access a secure folder with a file like an internet cookie saying “yeah, this game was bought legit at one point, let it run” and then not run alongside the game?

Thank you for sharing; yeah, that would be really irritating. Maybe I’m just lucky I’ve never experienced the same intensity.

Ok, I do get that, but what about if it is below conversational volume? Does it still bother you the same?

Aight, someone explain their point of view please. What level of volume severity have you commenters experienced? Someone listening to something has never bothered me, but it also has never been loud enough I can’t have a conversation with someone. Most restaurants play music louder than I hear from a stranger’s speakers. I don’t get what is rude about it. Even the Everett True comic below, several of you are that on edge about a person whistling or humming to themself?

I have scared people with my bike bell before. They almost ended up more in my path. Speakers seem like a better solution to me.

Huh. I only see posting history in the US Auth instance.

Completely legal might be a bit of a stretch, but yes, I agree. It feels like most officers have more crazy stuff to handle in a day that they don’t want to take the time out of their day for smaller violations in my town. Around here you don’t get pulled over for only ten over.

Thank you, Ricky Rigatoni. This is why we always seek your wise council.
