Theyd rather not do extra work and just charge slightly less.
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 week ago:
I meant as a political talking point its relatively new, but I also havent been around forever so it might be a recurring topic.
I will say that in the 90s and 00s, the teaching was that we don’t do slavery anymore. Very explicit that slavery is bad, but its in the past so no worries. This has led to a lot of people born in the 80s and 90s becoming aware of this reality much later into their adult lives.
My guess is most of them still think slavery is “solved” in America. Most people aren’t going to look at most of the brands in their grocery store and think, “slave labor helped bring me this product.”
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 week ago:
Yeah, they sorta gloss over that part in school when we learn about this stuff.
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 week ago:
The forced labour part is relatively new-ish. I think the average American has no idea about the slave labour involved in their daily lives.
- Comment on People who get "happy ending" massages, is there like a common keyword or process? 2 weeks ago:
Hard agree, although mine is a middle aged Asian woman who talks about how fucked up my back is as she’s torturing me. 100% feel better after though, like immediately.
- Comment on time to relax 2 weeks ago:
Its still somewhat toxic at champ and up, even in casual. Usually by that rank everyone knows how to mute someone though, so its extremely easy to shut idiots up without having to turn chat off entirely.
- Comment on Anon doesn't have a plan 3 weeks ago:
You can blame the parents because they enabled this behavior and are actively supporting it. Its very common with drug or alcohol addiction. Just because someone is an adult does not mean they are doing everything by themselves.
- Comment on 'Locking a gameplay trailer behind a Netflix subscription is a new level of greed' — GTA 6 callout Rockstar for 'paywalling' the game's extended look 4 weeks ago:
Social media has caused the opposite effect. If you use Tiktok and/or Facebook regularly, you will get anything popular spoiled as a rule. On top of that, there is negative social reactions to not knowing something as soon as its knowable.
Just another reason social media algorithms are awful for society.

I have people coming into my work trying to build a computer to prepare for GTA6 and its pretty obvious they dont know its not releasing on PC for a while after the initial launch. Dumb people play GTA now, its like FIFA or Madden or CoD.
- Comment on Belgium national team's officialsocial media post after beating theUSA national team in the World Cup:"Overturn this" 2 months ago:
I mostly mean before college. There is definitely a path for american soccer players, but its not in America like you say. World class players still “retire” and then go play in America, which says a lot.
- Comment on Belgium national team's officialsocial media post after beating theUSA national team in the World Cup:"Overturn this" 2 months ago:
American athletes generally are multi-sport players when younger, and tend to follow the best money. The players who have the best chance at being star soccer players simply end up playing football or basketball. The sport being less popular than at least 4 other sports in America is a huge problem for developing homegrown talent for the national team.
- Comment on ESA bafflingly declares private Minecraft servers 'illegal' 2 months ago:
Sort of comes off as an old boomer just saying stuff off the top of their head. I’m sure its not an actual legal declaration. I guess I agree then, they are fools.
- Comment on ESA bafflingly declares private Minecraft servers 'illegal' 2 months ago:
I literally have one running right now. Its unauthenticated as well.
- Comment on ESA bafflingly declares private Minecraft servers 'illegal' 2 months ago:
Sure, but theres a wide range of usage for an unnoficial minecraft server. Some servers make quite a lot of money via gambling mechanics.
The main reason Mojang or Minecraft care is because they need to protect the games image as a safe thing for kids to play. If it was a mature rated game, none of this would even matter.
- Comment on ESA bafflingly declares private Minecraft servers 'illegal' 2 months ago:
Sure, and WoW ships with a file that directs you to the official servers, that you can change to any IP address.
Besides all that I’m simply explaining the companies position. If you want to pirate the game feel free. If you want to allow “offline” accounts to join your server, feel free to do that too.
- Comment on ESA bafflingly declares private Minecraft servers 'illegal' 2 months ago:
The java version authenticates with Microsoft and Mojangs to prove valid ownership and to make sure parental controls are applied to accounts. I believe they are talking about unauthenticated servers that allow pirated accounts to join. Its similar to private MMO servers that are setup in a similar way. Same files, used unsupervised.
Generally this type of thing only matters with games that kids play, because people tend to try to protect kids. Games explicitly for adults seem to be able to be more free with what they allow.
- Comment on Turns out Boomers did have participation trophies 2 months ago:
Shitty rich people have sued most public schools into absurd levels of restriction. Its a nightmare when idiots are allowed to pay to be told they are legally correct by another idiot in a black robe.

Its not that serious my guy.
- Comment on Rough date 2 months ago:
That description is your perspective, which says a lot about you.
You also haven’t denied that you dislike women in general, or that you are against people driving drunk.
Feel free to set the record straight if youd like.
- Comment on Rough date 2 months ago:
Its funny, the words you wrote made people think that.
- Comment on Rough date 2 months ago:
Their posts reads like drinking used to be accepted and okay but now its not accepted but still okay. Also, it was women that ruined it for us. This is some bullshit Charlie Kirk level of dishonest debate.
- Comment on Rough date 2 months ago:
Drinking a pint of liquor in your car before a social event is a pretty solid sign of alcohol dependency.

Its very distinct, chemically like another poster said. Its very specific though, most people won’t know what that smell means.

I’m pretty sure blizzard just paid them to shut down the server. It happens the same way every time with every server.
