  • Their comment stands. Too many Americans remain too comfortable, at least for now. The standard of living in some ways might be declining, but it's happening at a sufficiently slow pace that it is tolerated. And, so far, the bread and circus is compensating

  • And the whatever-they-were-called issue with their parents was known to boomers. Hence the whole 60s and 70s attempted rebellion

    Each generation is successively subsumed by this paradigm we've been living in. It happened to millennials, it's probably going to happen to gen alpha who btw already show the same disregard for millennials that they in turn do for boomers.

    Why is that? Because that's part of the manipulation: twisting and deepening the perennial divide of age against us.

  • But from the videos I've seen online it looks like Americans often look even better than here

    Let me assure you that this is not the case. People of Walmart might be a better representation of much of the U.S.

    I'm looking to buy something like a reverse wheelbarrow, what do I call that?

    I'm looking to cart products around to sell on foot.

    Basically I want a box on wheels with bars in the front that I can lift and then walk forward. Similar to the idea of a rickshaw, but instead of seats for people, a container that can hold ~200lbs of weight. Or the type of thing you'd connect to a bike, except I want to just pull it on foot. The added element is that I want to be collapsible or able to be dismantled when not in use. Surely this must exist but I have no idea what term to use to search for it.

    "Rickshaw" mainly brings results related to pedicabs. The closest I got was "utility cart" like this for example. But the problem with these, unlike a rickshaw style design, is they don't scale well with the addition of weight where two wheels is easier than 4, depending on the surface. Also, versions that can be taken apart of collapses aren't rugged e

    Just played Area 51/Maximum Force at a retro-arcade. Are light gun shooter games still a thing? Any recent versions available for PC?

    And, if they are, any recommendations for a gun controller?

    If you donate to a service, do you so anonymously?

    Like if you want to donate to a website that maintains trackers, or files, do you take steps to make it anon, or just use paypal or whatever? If you do, how do you go about doing that?

    There should be a term for people who never really returned from the pandemic's social isolation

    People who haven't really resumed socializing at levels they used to, people who lost the capacity to regulate during interpersonal interactions, people who lost trust in others... I encounter lots of partial returners out there

    Is there a way to crop the field of vision / frame of the webcam?

    I'm on a Legion Lenovo Slim 5. The webcam shows too much area around me during video calls (the browser based teleconferencing tool that I use doesn't have settings to adjust this).

    I tried the cameractrls app, but it doesn't offer any way to crop or zoom in. Any other suggestions?
