That’s all my gaming laptop is doing, and it was fully worth the money.
- Comment on Anon uses Discord 1 week ago:
Which is a good monetation system. Premium users barely get anything but still enough to pay, while free users can do pretty much everything too.
- Comment on Billionaires shouldn't exist 3 weeks ago:
People don’t have that much money. They have companies that are worth that much.
- Comment on Billionaires shouldn't exist 3 weeks ago:
How does that work when for example a single company is worth two billion? Does the government now own >50% of it?

Well, we were talking about pet cats, not cats that had to live on their own

Where I live there is practically no risk of them getting ran over. But yes they do catch 2-3 birds per yer.
- Comment on WHY 5 weeks ago:
Yes, I didn’t mean to imply that the other word wasn’t correct, just pointed it out because it means the exact same thing can be either male or female depending on which word you use.

How many of those are left? Two, three?
People outside the USA exist. We have many stupid right wingers too but also many that I can respect (just sadly hardly any of them in politics)

Benefits Health benefits, parental leave, paid time off, holiday overtime, employee discounts, and more.
It’s insane that those things have to be listed in a so-called developed country (except employee discounts, that’s an actual benefit)

I’d say it’s a constant, not a unit

I meant it’s shrinking without immigration, yes. As more and more countries are developed, less and less countries have population growth, so there’s also no population growth through immigration anymore (when one time the people from the few countries that still have population growth are distributed among so many countries without population growth).
It is solving itself if we keep working on helping countries to become developed.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Population is shrinking in developed countries, looks like that issue will erase itself as more and more countries are developed.

As someone without children:
They should, yes. Children are extremely important for our future so especially people who earn well and can provide their children with a good life (likely leading to a successful carrier later on) should be encouraged to have them.
Additionally this kind of culture is needed if we want women to have same chances as men (since childcare still is majorly done by women, and likely always will be (progressive families split it evenly, conservative families don’t or at least don’t split it evenly, for every families where the father does more there’s at least one where the mother does more))

Minecraft not listed?
- Comment on The Witcher IV — Cinematic Reveal Trailer | The Game Awards 2024 3 months ago:
Even if they’d take a decade from now to release it, I wouldn’t mind. If I’ve learnt anything from CDPR it’s that masterpieces take time, and I’d much rather have a masterpiece in a decade than something half finished now.
- Comment on What do we think will be GoTY and which game do we think should be? 3 months ago:
Try it, it’s pretty good
Personally I’d also advocate for going in blindly and only looking up guides when you need them (for example when you seriously get into breeding) but do whatever you want.
(If you don’t play it blindly the first time, you’ll never get to play it blindly.)
(If you don’t have much time and are only playing locally or on your own server you also can boost xp gain, that helped me a bit for the later levels since I just didn’t have time for grinding.)
- Comment on What do we think will be GoTY and which game do we think should be? 3 months ago:
Personally I’d pick Palworld.
-
pretty unique concept (putting the best from dozens of games together as your base and continuing to expand from there)
-
very fun (I don’t seem to be alone with that opinion given how quickly it grew)
-
awarding a DLC (elden ring erdtree) of a game that has already been GotY is lame (and just awarding a DLC in general)
-
over 2.1 million simultaneous players
-
high flexibility, even for a sandbox game (ever wanted to attach a rocket launcher to your dinosaurs? to build a full fortress that basically can’t be taken? or do you prefer a cozy cabin? want to explore to get better? prefer to minmax your base instead? become a master of breeding? just grind money? etc)

- Comment on CEO brains go brrrrr 3 months ago:
Do you think killing for example Hitler would’ve changed anything? He just was some random guy who joined an already existing movement (and even without that movement ww2 was inevitable after the peace treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain). They’d just have picked someone else to lead it
Do you think killing Putin would change anything? He put complete loyalists everywhere, if he’s gone his political line will continue.
These are systematical issues, you can’t fix them as long as a large majority of those who have power to change anything (in a democracy thankfully that’s everyone who’s eligible for voting) simply accept it.
Side note: In the USA’s recent election ~32% voted for the Republicans and ~32% for the Democrats while over a third just didn’t care at all. That’s not how you get something to change in a democracy!
