Your brain doesn’t even finish fully developing until around 25 so like dude give it time
You are going to grow internally, and the external details of your life will change a lot as well
This is not a movie you jump into that’s all I’m saying
Give it at least 5 years

I’m just here to point out that I look down upon everybody, as I have some arbitrary consideration in my mind that makes me and the things I think, more next-levelier than all of you and what you like

Try working in social services.
All female-dominated services and agencies, the hatred against men is appalling.
The irony is so thick you could cut it with a knife.
In short, all systems of power, regardless of the identity of the people who make up those systems, reject ANYTHING that disrupts it.

- Comment on I'm doing my part! 2 weeks ago:
I’ve ranted in various places over the years but it’s 100% true in my city in Canada.
Decades ago we built a massive publicly-funded recycling system because the City could actually draw profit from the collection and sale of materials.
But about 15 years ago China stopped buying the waste, and it became a new shell-game of collecting the material but literally unable to do anything with it or sell it, so it any that gets does get sold mostly ends up in the down-stream recycling economy, where the bulk of it ends up being burned. The rest goes into the regular old landfill. Even waste cardboard has no value anymore.
People who separate recycling in our city now, are just pre-sorting it for the waste management company and keeping it out of their regular waste (profit) stream.
We do have our ewaste centers but knowing people that work there, I can say anecdotally I’ve been informed that the metal and rare metal waste is collected and sent for processing in Ontario, the rest of the bits (all the plastic which is 90% of eWaste) goes into the regular waste stream where it’s buried or burned, but never recycled.
Notice how Pepsi and Coke don’t use recycled plastic? If that doesn’t condemn the whole recycling “meme” as a sham, I don’t know what would.

Nothing.
There is a massive gap between the aspirations of online consumers, and actual consumer behavior.
People will never ever support creators, that’s the bottom line. People are greedly little fucks and they like it. Don’t fool yourself.
I say this as a former massive streamer will millions of watched hours. People. Are. Shit.

I got banned for “advocating violence” in a comment that simply said “I work in support services and I can personally attest that women can be extremely physically and emotionally violent, and to continually portray men as ‘the violent ones’ in our society, we tacitly deny protection to all people”
Banned for expressing this horrid thought.

- Comment on The Steam controller was ahead of its time 3 weeks ago:
It failed because it offered too much customization. Really.
Physical construction was shit tier. I should know, I early adopted November 2015 and in total I went through 17 not counting the 3 DOA. My ear actually became attuned to the specific mini-crunch that signaled the impending demise of a shoulder button.
It also had undeniable layout and design issues. The D-Pad they implemented was a joke. Fanboys wouldn’t shut up about it but truth is, it was completely unacceptable to put a track pad in it’s place and it was more or less unusable. Other buttons and inputs were juuuuust a little cramped or off-kilter and it was common to input mash accidentally.
The configuration software was also a nightmare. Ever try setting up a Mouse Region for a twin stick game? Sweet jeebus. They tripled the efficiency of the configuration screens in recent updates and it’s still a nightmare. It’s 30 inputs just to tweak something like a deadzone, then you have to menu out… then test in game… then drill allllll the way back down to tweak a little more.
But back to my assertion at the top. It made SC gamers literally unfairly better. Gryo aiming, effectively programmable macros, mode shifts, radial wheels, action layers, targeted mouse clicks, button toggles, sliders, regions, I can’t even remember it all from back before it got heavily neutered. It got out of control to the point where you could bypass “cheating” standards and macros in big online games, etc. You could simulate inputs.
Design iterations would have fixed the other issues, but it became a deadly-unfair device for competitive gaming and a lot of companies hated how the Steam Controller hardware and software customization… basically allowed people to “cheat” their systems in a sense. It opened a huge fucking can of worms. Something like it will probably never be seen again for these reasons.

Linux people need to get a fucking grip. It’s a shitty tool for EVERYBODY except developers.
The year of Linux on the desktop was 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025

Give it up.
Lengths required for this solution: purchase computer and use it.
Lengths required for Linux: spend 10 years understanding all the technical underpinnings so that you can get a basic install going and then realize you can’t accomplish 98% of what you need to because it’s a piece of shit not made for desktop use.
- Comment on If you have cut off mainstream music streaming, how do you discover new music or artists and songs like what you're listening frequently? 5 weeks ago:
The way I have done it for the last several years and it has brought me amazing new dimensions of sound experience…
Find an artist that you like, look them up and find out who produced the album and other group members.
Then do a little Wiki research into the discography and solo work of each of those performers or producers.
Follow up on interesting threads, and you’ll be exposed to all kinds of amazing new stuff.
Although I’m definitely out of this listening phase now, an example that worked for me was I got very obsessed with Talking Heads band. Looked them up and found out that Brian Eno produced them.
Started to notice from other bands I looked up that Brian Eno was mysteriously involved in so many of them.
Started to look into all the bands that Brian Eno produced and worked with over the years, and then started to look into the music of Brian Eno.
Starts to give you a realization that the true talent in a band is generally not the performers, but rather the veterans with decades of experienced who guide them.
Another example is Buckethead, started to see this dude buckethead appearing on literally hundreds of different album credits! Did a lot of research into the guy and the various bands he’s worked with, and that opened hundreds of new experiences to me.
This comment is getting a little outside of my original point, which is to actually do some research on your own, go out and find the lesser-known works of artists you love.
Basically just follow different Wikipedia links, and then when you find an album in a discography that you think might be interesting, look it up.

I’m just leaving this whole platform.
It’s nothing special. Every fucking idiot you’ve ever met in your life on Reddit is coalescing here.
Have you had a meaningful conversation here? An informative one? I’ve been here 2+ years and I can honestly say no.
Have you seen a link that isn’t effectively a complete recycling of what you already know to be true?
It’s the same recycled bullshit you have seen for the last 20 years.
The whole format of a “democratic” link dump site is fundamentally broken. I see that now.

Hell, they are almost designed to break. They are utterly shabby in terms of build quality.

I am not lying when I tell you I have been through 17 of these controllers. It’s the right bumper almost every time.
I have a giant handful of the dongles. I was saving them thinking they would go up in value but now like $2 knockoffs are available LOL
