and as far as I’m aware, I would probably be unable to buy a PC or console ever again.
I don’t have any suggestions but I am so, so sorry and I really hope things turn around for you for the better.

The problem with some of these is that once you would end just being extra-judicially targeted yourself.
You don’t want to end up like Gomer Pyle getting beaten with socks full of soap. Your coworkers will know your name and have tools to find out more info on you. Don’t turn yourself into a massive target unless you’re comfortable with that.

Just kidding, nice to know there’s something out there.
There’s also Duolicious but there was literally no one within a hundred miles of me and most of the people using it were about half my age so it felt fruitless to pursue.

Plentyoffish mostly stinks but still has a free tier where you can message one person a day.
Also, on the page where you look at people who have viewed/liked you, the photos are blurred but if you use the Web Developer Inspection Tool:
Right click on one of the images of who you want to see and click “Inspect”:
From here, you can usually find them in your list of potential matches, in your “meet me” swipes, or in the recently online list. This way, if someone swipes right on you, you can find them without paying and can decide to match or message.
Cheers and good luck!

- Comment on Microsoft to lay off about 9,000 employees in latest round [Seattle Times] 4 days ago:
Right, socialism doesn’t necessarily say that markets themselves are evil, but rather that the workers should have direct control over their own workplaces and reap the value of their labor instead of being siphoned off to a parasite class. A socialist business owned by the workers would still be selling their goods in the marketplace. It’s just a fairer distribution of control of the company through democracy and a fairer distribution of the value generated by the labor.
As I often say, it’s not like Jeff Bezos can deliver every Amazon package or manage every AWS server on his own. No, the value he has is leeched from all the workers who make his business function. Without the workers, he is effectively useless on his own.

We have come so far that we have gone from “maybe the world should be a better place” to “if we are really going to do this capitalism shit, could we at least follow the fundamental foundational concepts instead of a corporate free-for-all where the rules of the game have been tossed out?”

But seriously this is tragic as hell for all the people losing their jobs and seeing all the work they did on the game go up in a puff of smoke.
- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 4 days ago:
I mean I always stay home because I’m an introvert, but yeah, mirroring what other’s have already said in this thread, I haven’t had much to feel patriotic about since at least the Dubya Bush years. So probably more than 20 years of not feeling it.
- Comment on Young Americans Are Spending A Whole Lot Less On Video Games This Year 4 days ago:
Are there even any good games coming out this year?
Further, didn’t the Switch 2 already break sales records? 5.4 million consoles? 1.8 million of them in the US?
Also, looking at the roster of games that have come out so far this year, it looks pretty barren for genuinely quality games. Maybe people just haven’t bought a lot of the kind of forgettable titles? The only games that seem popular that aren’t remakes or re-releases of previous games are Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Blue Prince, Split Fiction, Death Stranding 2, Kingdom Come Deliverance II, Doom: The Dark Ages, and Elden Ring Nightreign. Of those, only the first four listed score above 90 on Metacritic. Even stuff like Monster Hunter Wilds has been deeply panned.
I think it’s probably a mixture of high prices, lack of money, Switch 2 sales and waiting on better Switch 2 titles other than just Mario Kart World, as well as a lackluster roster of other quality games.

First, the most fascinating detail to emerge is that it appears the NSA was talking to the giant telecoms about handing over customer data a full seven months before 9/11. Documents show that Nacchio met with the NSA on February 27, 2001, at which time Nacchio refused a request that he deemed illegal. If true, this would seem to contradict the Bush administration claim that any laws broken by the telecoms were hasty mistakes made in the confusion following the terrorist attacks.
Nacchio still needed to get nailed for insider trading, but this got swept under the rug during the Bush years.
