or even worse than that, I’ve seen so many listings that are just training AI to eventually do your job. like they have a human there to ask why and try to understand how to perform the job function, but they’re teaching both the human and the AI at the same time.

job market is in a really shitty place in the U.S. right now.

because other places aren’t hiring at a similar salary and benefits

I mean, I think it’s fine as a gimmick for wealthy gamers, and it’s been at that level for awhile.

As the future of gaming though? yeah, never gonna happen. M+KB is the best controlling scheme for tons of the genres I play, and controllers are great for a bunch of others. There’s actually not that many genres that are improved by full body motion tracking, they’re pretty much all first-person games, and they often turn a relaxing gaming session into a workout. It’s not that the technology isn’t there, it’s that the concept it’s fundamentally flawed.

The issue is that anyone with a functioning prefrontal cortex has known he’s a pedophile since at least 2016, when it was released that he would regularly walk into the changing rooms at the child beauty pageants he would sponsor.

This whole controversy has really just been about desperately hoping the MAGA crowd would accept a single fact in their life if maybe it didn’t come from mainstream media. The issue that I see is that the right-wing propaganda machine has completely given up on getting the Epstein files released. They’re not gonna cover it, they’ll call it a fake news attack by the Democrats, and that’s the last thought the MAGA crowd will have on it. There was a very brief moment where they did care earlier this year, but Trump and specifically Mike Johnson have successfully delayed long enough.

the other issue is even if somehow it did break through and galvanized the MAGA base against Trump… so what? Trump has already made it abundantly clear he doesn’t give a fuck about his base, the law, rules and norms, or really anything beyond consolidating his power and acting like a king. Would that base actually go so far as to vote Democrat in the midterm elections a year from now? Would they vote Democrat in 2028, assuming we even have free and fair elections by then? would they even still remember? at the end of the day, I think they hate the mythical idea of “The Left” that they’ve been sold too much to ever actually fight alongside us, so hoping the J6 crowd would try to actually save democracy this time is absurd.

I dunno who needs to hear this, but minimum wage workers do not care about you. They don’t have the time or energy to judge you over silly stuff. If you make a minor faux pas, they might chuckle about it for a couple seconds at most, and then they have to get back to work.

In my experience working a few different fast food jobs, the only customers I still remember are the ones who were incredibly rude assholes or straight up threatened my life. If someone was generally friendly and came in like 10-12 times a month, I would maybe remember their name. Typically though, the only thing that was on my mind was making it through my shift, and trying to figure out what food I could steal so I could eat dinner that night.

I’m a big fan, but I would also not categorize myself as a power user. I want my computer to “just work,” and I have more than enough storage space that I’m willing to accept a trade-off in storage size to not have dependency issues. I never really notice and issues permission-wise though, if something really should have access to other files on my computer I just use Flatseal.

I haven’t quite hit thirty yet, but my friend has. She’s taken up boxing, which might seem counterintuitive, but building up your strength is a great way to avoid having a weak core and knees. It also means she does regular stretching.

don’t worry, I also have a full-time job, but unfortunately I was born in America so it’s not enough to cover the rising costs of food, healthcare and housing!

hey if I’m not channeling powerful femboysmell into these panties, how am I gonna be able to sell them to wealthy perverts in order to pay my rent? Checkmate showerers.

You’ve basically reinvented torrenting, but the first step of that is you need to save local copies of that art to your machine. Once you have it, peer to peer sharing will be the only vector for distributing it.

The U.S. balkanizing is what I expect to occur sometime in the next few decades. Divisions have just grown so strongly that there already are functionally a few different Americas, even if we’re still bound together for now.

In terms of the current shutdown though, I suspect it will last through Thanksgiving, and we will see the mother of all air traffic catastrophes. Multiple high profile crashes, tons of airports fully shutdown, lots of airspace shutdown, all amidst one of the busiest travel times of the year. Afterwards, there will be enough pressure to get the Reps to agree to a clean continuing resolution, which will fund the govt through January, and then we’ll do the whole song and dance again.

of the home in Whitestown

you can’t make this shit up

he also 100% existed lol. Yasuke has tons of historical records about him because he didn’t exist in like ancient Japan, he was the bodyguard of Oda Nobunaga during the Sengoku era. like you said, racists are just idiots and can’t stand actual history that goes against their stupidity.

Y’know, when I first watched episode 1, I really didn’t expect this show to be about puberty.

:x

how on earth were you doing that? do you have a Linux phone?

Yeah none of those reasons were why people hated Shadows though. It was entirely racists. They aren’t gonna make any more improvements to their formula because Ubisoft doesn’t innovate, they’ll just wait for someone else to add an interesting twist to the open world formula and then steal that.

Ergo Proxy is so mysterious that I’ve seen it twice and am still not sure what the fuck actually happens

Damn really gonna disrespect Naruto that hard?

I actually think there’s gonna be a swerve where Teach gives up on the One Piece to claim the Ancient Weapons Neptune and Pluton. It seems like Teach’s focus should be revenge on Imu than caring at all about fulfilling Roger’s will.
