What’s a jerk sock? Also, if you get use out of it, you arguably did not ruin it.

I thought the FFVII remakes were pretty well received?
I wasn’t attempting to start a debate, just talking about things i saw him do that could be reasons this would get reported. For the record, i was not one of the folks that reported it. I am willing to give some leeway when someone with a huge platform is edifying marginalized people.
Vaush is a divisive person, and has a checkered past. I’m glad to hear he has changed, but I, and probably quite a few folks, stopped paying attention to him when he was doing his edgy thing
I think you read into something I didn’t say. I never said we should remove this video. I was giving context for the reports mods were getting
I mean, he used to rant about how it is OK for white people to say the n word, though he has changed tune on that. He has also miscategorized the land back movement, and called one of his black guests pro-genocide because she dared to talk about black liberation. Oh, then his followers harrased her for it even though she said nothing of the sort. Those are just the things I have personally seen.
I think the issue is the inclusion of Vaush since he has said/done some pretty racist things and his audience tends to dogpile on folks.
Justin Timberlake was caught driving drunk, and on the video footage you can hear him say, “This is going to ruin the tour.”
What tour?
I did not say anything about cis people though? In the paragraph I quoted above, You made a distinction between people that use lower case and upper case pronouns. The distinction You made is that because people that use lower case pronouns are “used to being catered to by society” (which is very untrue in the case of trans people, us nonbinary folks in particular) we have tend to get more upset when misgendered. My point is that this is very condescending, and seems to be saying that people that use uppercase are more reasonable about it. You have been kind of dancing around that point in the last couple responses without actually addressing the condescension.
I think You missed my point entirely. The language You used in the paragraph I quoted is condescending. You may not have meant to do that, but the result makes it seem like You are talking down to people that use lower case pronouns (or have not thought about/care about capitalization). Even if it is only a small part of Your experience, the language used makes it seem like folks that use lower case are more prone to outburst.
Us CPUs have accepted that We’re going to have to ask for Our pronouns to be used, and that it’s easier for everyone if We just let the LPUs have this. Maybe in the future it’ll be different, but I really don’t want to be dragged into an argument by an LPU who takes offense and decides to make a scene instead of just asking to have their pronouns respected. I’ve been in that situation before.
I know You say it is not about a power dynamic, but this statement is condescending as all get out. It makes people that use lower case pronouns seem petulant and childish because we get upset when we get misgendered. It smacks of not leveling the same amount of respect to others as You demand they pay to You
Gene Wolfe, but I am a sucker for a longwinded description of a bizarre world. Definitely not for everyone. As type this I had the thought, “gods I hope he is not a shitass.” BRB, got some searching to do
I’m not saying it is not true, but if it is can we get a better source than watcher.guru? Something about a crypto focused news source screams not credible
The other 5e based game, Solasta has custom campaigns. It is not as polished as BG3, but it is enjoyable
That’s fair. I guess I give just a little bit of room for fucking up and fixing it. I am also not particularly loyal and will ditch companies at the drop of a hat.
Is that still true? The article/github thread cited on Prism Break are from 2012 and 2013 respectively. It seems only to be true of Ubuntu 12.10. The only thing I can from from current Ubuntu versions is the ad in the command line when doing an apt upgrade, and that is from 2022. It does not appear to exist in other Ubuntu based distros since it is an ad for Ubuntu Pro. Not saying it is great, but it seems like non-Canonical distros should be OK.
I’m on Pop_OS and really like it. I chose it because i have a 2080, so the nvidia specific package is great for me. No WiFi issues, but I almost always have it hard wired, so not much chance to have it go wrong
I don’t know if the concerns are misaligned, just the reason for the concern. The app creators specifically said they created it to reduce food waste, but I think the app creators have put too much stock in the benevolence of restaurant owners. If they are selling food that was not leftover, it kinda defeats the purpose. Ultimately is it a horrible thing? Probably not since it doesn’t move the needle in the other direction, but it is misleading.
The one thing I can see making things worse is the last thing you mentioned. If they were going to donate the food to a local food bank, then ultimately the app makes the world worse and doesn’t do the thing they set out to do. Kinda like Imperfect Produce, Too Good to Go could be a net negative.
Anecdotally I took a look at the places around me just to see. I live in a pretty low participation area (not a small city, I’m in the Seattle area), so grain of salt there. Of the 4 restaurants within 5 miles of me on the app, 2 were donuts, which seems like a good use. I took a look at reviews of the 2 non-bakery restaurants, and one seemed like it was using it as intended. The other was called out in reviews, with multiple people saying the employees explicitly told them they were instructed to put specific low cost items in the bag.
Overall I think there is something to look into, but the article just hits it tangentially.
It looks to be reusing a bread bag and an empty bottle, so those would have been trash. Reuse/repurposing is better than just throwing away.
