does not suffer from desyncs
Not entirely true. IRC can have network splits (I believe they were referred to as netsplits if I remember correctly) where one network can drop out. You can notice this when you see like 50+ people leave a channel at the exact same time because the network they were on disconnected, it’s kind of interesting imo lol but also I’m a nerd so maybe that’s why I find it interesting.

What would it be called?

I don’t think it’s fair to blame it on bad education. I’m pretty sure almost everybody is aware that having emergency savings is better than not having emergency savings. The cost of living keeps going up, inflation rate going way up, but salaries are just not increasing enough to keep up. Everything is becoming more expensive and people can’t afford it, let alone having enough money to set aside.

True. But the meme is wrong. It’s expenses not income.
The idea is you should be able to survive without working for 6 months.
Yeah, I get that, that’s why I meant I doubt that more than 25% of people can survive without working for 6 months.

I bet less than 25% of people do this.
- Comment on There is one uncleared level remaining in Super Mario Maker, with 18 days to go before the servers shut down 1 month ago:
That’s a good idea tbh. I should probably do that.

Many years back, I manually dumped thousands of Mario Maker 1 levels and uploaded them to the Internet. It’s sad that the servers will be shutting down, and I knew this would happen, which is why I did it even though it took a long time manually downloading them one-by-one and then copying them off of my softmodded Wii U. Still though, it was worth it, knowing the game will live on to some extent even after the servers are shut down.

Don’t forget private games, it’s a win-win because customers can buy games they don’t want to show to their friends and Valve get more money because they get more people buying those

I used to end every sentence with lol
I mean, I still do more often than I’d like to admit lol
- Comment on What a feeling that was 1 month ago:
I remember when games didn’t need updates, they just worked, or the bugs they had were cool. Though I guess it makes sense that since games are more complex and larger now, they end up having more bugs and need more updates.
- Comment on Activision/Blizzard QA workers form the largest US video game union yet 2 months ago:
This is great news. This is probably one of the companies that most desperately needed a union. Sure, I was laid off due to (bragged about) nepotism at my last dev job, and maybe a union would have helped, but according to my lawyer they didn’t break any laws firing me. I’m just glad I was able to bounce back and land on my feet in a higher paying job.
Even considering all of that, I find it hard to think of a company most desperately needing of a union than Activision/Blizzard.
