Work? Give me a laptop because I’m not always working from the same spot. External mouse, keyboard, monitor, and it’s fine.

Personal? Desktop is better for games. Most things work on the phone. The remainder fan largely wait until I’m home.

I feel like larger orgs have too many incompetent idiots and useless layers of management to appropriately manage people. So you have people extruding AI slop because that’s optimal for getting some fucking ghoul middle manager to see you. The guy who fixes bugs and writes useful tests isn’t going to impress fucking Joanne who can’t even code but somehow is still in charge of the department.

I think this is a big problem at Google. You get rewarded for shipping something, even if that means killing a better product.

Other than that, yeah I guess it’s a social game. Getting people to like you matters more than you might think it should.

Perhaps you would prefer to live in a dystopia where the bread is full of sawdust and the milk is rotten.

If there are desperate unhappy people it will probably not go well. Our society produces a lot of desperate, unhappy, people.

But as construction moves forward, some drivers say the projects are creating frustration in the short term

Boo fucking hoo.

Would really like these newspapers to not waste time with idiots opinions. Idiot car lovers are not really qualified to speak on the topic. Quote experts. Stop platforming idiots.

Linux has been fine for me for a couple years. Fuck Microsoft.

You shouldn’t be allowed to sell “raw” cheese. It’s unsafe.

The people who did so should face charges analogous to, I don’t know, attempting to poison a bunch of people. Fucking nail them to the wall.

driver was charged with misdemeanor Causing Serious Physical Injury/Death by a Moving Violation.

That should not only be a misdemeanor

These people are horrible and I would celebrate their fall.

Can we play an RPG that’s not DND specifically? Fate is cool and light weight.

Hinds are from Spain https://hinds.bandcamp.com/album/leave-me-alone - they did a great show when I saw them

Arguably not rock or punk, but

I adore this doom from Australia. Holy serpent - Endless. https://holyserpentband.bandcamp.com/album/endless

More doom, from Belgium: https://wolvennest.bandcamp.com/album/the-dark-path-to-the-light

I feel like most of the people with money would just play it up to be super cool instead of a dystopia. And given the Epstein stuff, not lightly edit it so the girl is of appropriate age.

These fines need to increase by like a factor of 100, or key decision makers need to see serous jail time.

One time a former partner and I were doing it in the morning. Sunlight streaming through the window. They’re on top. Everything’s great.

They’re on their period. They dismount. Some combination of biology and physics made my dick like slap back toward my stomach, and flick a huge splatter of blood into the air. In my mind it went in slow motion, shimmering and roiling through the sunlight until it hit the wall. I was like “holy shit that was amazing!!”

They were really embarrassed and ran off to the bathroom.

I don’t pay for any of them. There’s the public library and other options. Fuck em.

It seems like a lot of this comes down to “the bike and pedestrian stuff is better for everyone, even drivers. But some people just don’t believe that, despite all evidence”

We are ruled by idiots

I cleared inner isshin without getting damaged in Sekiro , so I thought I’d play a charmless run. Then I died like 10 times to the chained ogre. So maybe more sekiro.

Cool. I don’t go upstate much, but good for them.

Capitalist hellscape. One of my pets scratched me in an awkward part of my leg. ICE horrors. War. Genocide. Other things removed from my immediate, personal, experience but make me sad or angry when I think of them.

just say i don’t know enough to have an opinion on this

It would be so nice if people could do this.

Also admit that they were misinformed or that they need a moment to think about what you’ve presented. Sometimes it seems like we expect everyone to have an immediate iron clad opinion.
