- Comment on Video Game Physical Software and Hardware Sales Just Had the Worst November in the U.S. Since 1995 - IGN 15 hours ago:
Physical versions only have value of they are complete and relatively bug free, and originally purposed to avoid big downloads.
Nowadays day 1 patching may be the same size as the install or larger negating half the point. The other half is lost because almost everything is a subscription, multi-player, or delivered with too many bugs as a beta test.
Collecting physical copies is a thing, but is niche.
- Comment on U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday 1 week ago:
Raw dollar value means nothing if it’s not tariff and inflation adjusted. Report total pieces as well.
- Comment on My Religion 1 week ago:
The first is how many think it works, but it’s just a ruse. It’s always the second, and religious magical thinking always results in social positions and votes that are damaging and regressive.

Didn’t calculus solve this stuff?
- Comment on Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers? 2 months ago:
This is one of the only issues I have with the show… Homelander’s leash appears to be super hamfisted in, or in general it makes little sense why corporate has so much control with so little relative power. Lots of people in that world have powers, and it would be total anarchic chaos in reality.

- Comment on If I found voter irregularities in my home district do I have to hire a lawyer to prove it.? Or just let it go and the Florida Orange win? 5 months ago:
Maybe with a schema that allows a one time verify, and then churns your entry. If that verify occurs upon entry synchronously at the time you vote, if possible, that’d be no less safe than the paper ballot you feed into the machine.

No different than how it’s recorded today. We can improve from there but it’s not worse with the upside of a public ledger.

This is the exact use-case for a blockchain, a public immutable ledger where you can validate your vote, but nobody can tie it back to you.

I see a 7/10 in there that seems the most honest.

Why no social connections? Best thing to do is to externally connect and have things outside the confines of your current unhappiness.

Combine that with getting rid of celebrity actors, this would be great. Need fresh faces.

Then fix the interest rates. Set them to 0% and do a mandatory income based repayment with a subsidy reduction from the graduating institution to incentivize them to help place graduates in better positions. If you hit the institutions with non-placement claw-back fees they will help.
- Comment on Should naming your children stupid names be illegal? 7 months ago:
This question should be illegal. Name changes should be simple and up to the individual when they have autonomy. Before then, you get whatever your parents want, because names are just made up nonsense anyway.

Sure but then it’s their call and resolves the if they find out issue.
- Comment on Homer Simpson irl 9 months ago:
He’s not 100% normal, you just haven’t experienced the things he cannot process properly or at all, which is likely a lot of higher reasoning… They just don’t affect his day to day, which gives us clues that day to day functioning is very low level and likely mostly autonomous.

You can tell him he should get a second mri that isn’t bound by your rules.

Aside from some over the counter numbing creams and surgery there is nothing to be done by a doctor anyway. At best you can massage it gently in a shower or bath. You didn’t say how long you’ve had it, but it takes weeks to reduce. Just tell them if you feel you must, there is no magic way to say embarrassing things except for practice doing so.
- Comment on Do you feel like you've reached the end of what the world has to offer? 9 months ago:
I think most in this thread are missing the point. It’s not really about specific knowledge, it’s about day to day existence and entertainment. The average person isn’t deep diving any topic, but nevertheless seeking the next dopamine hit becomes harder and harder and you’ve seen every core day to day thing by like age 20 which you must then rehash for another 60 years. I get the sentiment.

Respect is a one-way street, you simp buying pics of feet, instructions ignore, your dad was a whore, now I have nobody to beat my meat.
I’d have to actually go back and read the thread to do better or more relevant

- Comment on Costco union representing 18,000 workers authorizes nationwide strike 10 months ago:
You’re getting downvoted due to your original post, but the door checkers are annoying. They are membership validation theatre like tsa is. They already scan to validate at the register, and all you have to do to go in is claim you’re going to the pharmacy anyway. The door checkers just make being a member more annoying and Costco should be punished by the members for enacting them.

- Comment on When you die, what do you want to be done with you? 1 year ago:
People think anything matters after they die, like anything in the future at all, but there is no future… You skip right to the end of time. Nothing happens to your body at all.
