Yeah it’s a good thing homework doesn’t exist.

Burgers are greasy, that doesn’t bother me. Brioche buns are sweet and too thick, that’s what bothers me.

Stop putting sugar in everything. I don’t want a sweet Burger

Only for marketplace. Haven’t posted anything in years, and before that never anything meaningful.

Seems like something along the lines of “everything is hopeless so don’t bother trying.”

An odd way to word that, but they’re not necessarily wrong. The way all forms of media have become long running franchises and contained boxes has worked as a constant distraction to the majority, and allowed for very easy information control. Movies, TV, news sources and radio stations are all owned by a few big companies, and the internet is really just meta, Google, and Microsoft. If every other website disappeared right now, the majority of Americans wouldn’t even notice. It’s not their fault, it’s just a captive industry designed to appeal to as many people as possible.

It seems like the Roman empire is too busy with their carnivals to see it crumbling around them.

They’re large flippered dog like creatures that take over docks and harbors.

You’re supposed to vaguely imply the existence of those, not just give away secrets in public bruh

It replaces paying for Spotify because its possible to download Spotify premium. Best of both worlds. Use Spotify or YouTube to find stuff, send it to a seedbox, load it later at home.

Biggest downside is most phones don’t have SD card slots anymore.

If we want to get conservatives on board with environmental protections, we should just start a conspiracy that the perceived rise in trans people, gays, and autistics is due to plastic ester groups in the environment. Then tell them that these groups are represented in the media so much now because the petrolium companies don’t want us to see it as a problem when the science breaks.

Brb, gotta go convince some trumpers single use plastic is making their kids gay.

Well yeah fuck that guy and this program and it’s implications, but this particular issue doesn’t sound too unexpected considering the scope of the procedure.

I’m all for the science, but you know this is going to be some directly streamed ads hellspace we’ll never escape from if it comes to fruition.

Here’s a good rule for this sort of thing to move forward: No implants before right to privacy and freedom from advertising.

I though it was shitty games done quick. I would check that out.

Line from a solid song by a local band i found when i was 16. Oddly enough, it never occured to me how much i liked it as a name until a decade later.

I’ve played most of the metroid games, and i know theres a ton of nostalgia for super metroid, but to this day nothing has matched the feeling of exploration and awe from Metroid Prime. Every place in the game was so radically different, and the ability to scan and learn about the environment was so unique, and exactly what i didn’t know i needed. Learning the lore and finding out what happened to the planet only by analyzing everything made the world feel like it had died, and it’s death was a tragedy. All the enemies you encounter are just local animals that don’t know better, or had been corrupted by pollution. That is, until about halfway through the game when you meet actually hostile, malicious intelligence, and the combat steps up exponentially.

It’s fantastic. I still remember being amazed at the fogging and raindrops showing up on the visor the first time you step off your ship on Talon IV. I had never seen graphocs so good, and such attention to detail, and the game was already 4 years old.

The only game i’ve ever played that felt similar was subnautica, and while it had the wonder, it lacked the melancholy and insane combat.

Prime is the best in the series, hands down.

And the answer to vacant cells is to congragulate the population on their low crime rate, but the for profit system in the US just finds reasons to put more people in jail and keep them there longer.

Focusing close regularly doesn’t make you short sighted, not getting enough tourquoise light on your retina from staying inside makes your eye keep getting longer instead of stopping when the focal point is correct. Well, that and genetics.

And losing the ability to see near as you age has nothong to do with pressure. Your lens is constantly adding new layers to itself to stay clear, and after 40 it’s become so thick the muscles that pull it to accommodate near vision can’t stretch it enough. By 58 it doesn’t stretch at all any more. That’s why everyone eventually needs bifocals/progressives.

Don’t state things as fact if your not sure of them.

I’m sure that’s just a perk and not indicative of the new age of captured information wer’re currently living through.

No, it’s a freeway loop, so there’s never a jam, and it was like 10pm. Took the normal way back and it cut 12 minutes off a 30 minute trip.

They’ve been secretly doing this for years. I switched out after I realized the weird roads they were having me take weren’t to avoid traffic, but because every corner I turned at had a 7-11 on it. The roads in my area are set up like a grid, so there’s many ways to get everywhere. I’m thinking like 3-4 years ago I noticed the change. I would check with my friend’s phones, and notice Google would give them different directions than mine. Last weekend, a friend was giving me directions to a spot in a neighboring town, and it avoided the freeway to have me drive through the business district of both my town and the destination. I work in the town I was heading to, I know how long it takes to get there. It told us to go literally the worst way possible.

Not that it’s not a shitty thing to do, but it also seems like the last person you would rely on for the value of an object is the person selling it to you.
