  • I love RDR2, but the combat was shit. You're such a John Wick/ Max Pane badass that by the end of the game you're only vulnerable in cut-scenes.

    The worst part is that there is an excellent quick-draw mechanic that's hidden away in a few side-missions.

  • Freedom

  • As a user, I hate when an OS gets in my way. Or insists that there is one right way to do something.

    As the tech support guy in my family, I'm grateful that windows denies permission, has big guard rails, and forces you to do updates.

  • Where I live, there are American cockroaches. The good thing is that they don't nest in homes, so their presence isn't a commentary on your cleanliness. But they do wander into homes looking for food. And guys, they're huge! Like you can hear them crawling.

    I asked the pest control guy if there was a way to be finally rid of them and he said "move".

  • A cousin uploaded a video to YT of her 4yo daughter playing with her friends in one of those inflatable pools. Just for family and the like. It was getting 500 views a day before she took it down. Creepy!

  • My first real girlfriend got pregnant soon after we broke up. Sometimes I wonder how my life would have been different if I did a teen pregnancy.

    At this point in my life I'd barely traveled out of my red State; believed in Jesus; and the only contact I'd had with politics was Rush Limbaugh. Honestly, not ending up a Trump supporter with my demographics is like Neo-level bullet dodging.

  • Yes, Currency is constructed. Just like laws, sovereignty, borders, human rights, customs, norms, culture, institutions, and government.

    Currency isn't the opposite of bartering, it's advanced bartering.

  • Never let these cocksuckers like Brooks forget that they accepted the human cruelty and lawlessness of Trump. It was only when daddy tipped over the stock market that these men of reason started to wonder if Trump was qualified after all.

  • Bear with me:

    Suppose there was a concentration camp that was basically an involuntary hotel/spa. Where the guards waited on the internees like servants. Even then, the existence of Auschwitz or Bergen-Belsen with their incredible threat of violence would hang over every internee who might get transferred. Therefore even our imaginary pleasant concentration camp enforces order with violence.

    In the antebellum South, the phrase for this principal was being "sold down the river" where enslaved people who cause trouble were offloaded to worse conditions. So remember that if you ever hear about "kind" slavers.

    It's not surprising that apologists for confederates and apologists for Nazis are working off the same script.

  • If you've got a revolver and read Sowell, I'm going to assume you are MAGA.

    Though it does give me enormous pleasure to know conservative economists like Sowell and Laffer are alive and well to see Trump drive our economy into the ditch in the dumbest way possible.

    What's a good legal "explainer" Youtube channel?

    I'm looking to drop Legal Eagle because i believe their accelerated release schedule prevents the kind of depth coverage I'm looking for. You guys follow any legal channels that dive into the history and context of the legal issues of the day?

    Suppose we learn the CEO was killed over something ordinary and the shooter was a basic murderer. What does the reaction to this death say, if anything about this moment in history?

    Remember: the SUX 3141 Ti is 60% slower than the SUX 3141 Xt. because it's 5 years older and has no components in common.

    Native German speakers: Are Hitler's speeches particularly compelling?

    I've always been told that Hitler was a masterful public speaker; that his support can largely be explained by his compelling, if not mesmerizing hold on crowds. This narrative is not common, it's universal.

    Sometimes I think this is emphasized over how much the crowds approved of the content of his speech.

    How do native German speakers feel when they view footage of Hitler? Do you think the reputation is earned?

    Why is sucking better than blowing?

    I use a box fan to help dry the dishes in the dishwasher. Recently I mistakenly pointed the fan away from the dishes instead of toward them. This appears to be faster and more effective than my normal method. Why?
