  I love it but the generated quests make this game boring for me.

  So basically I really really really want to like this game, but I just can’t :(

  (I have 200ish hours in it anyway)

  If my cable printer would make a noise I didn’t recognize, I’d shoot it.

  I spend 15 minutes on trying to figure the title out, but no luck. If someone here recognizes the title, please share

  Or clinical psychiatrists.

  Im not arguing anything. Im just saying that progress in sience does not matter if it comes from goverment, or billionare, or dude in a barn.

  Ah. I see. Yet you failed to include an example of a progress made by a billionaire. And made 3 typos in that sentence, but who’s counting.

  Im trying to fight urge to say, “i bet you are often confused.”

  And fuck you too I guess.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The existence of billionaires is a policy failure⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sorry, what are you trying to argue here? I’m genuinely confused?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The existence of billionaires is a policy failure⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  imaging improvements used to scan moon

  But that wasn’t privately owned company but public one though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The existence of billionaires is a policy failure⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  medical innovations

  In the past ~30 years (I haven’t read older data) no drug research in US was privately founded. They all consume massive government grants for it. The “cost” the big pharma is so loud about is manufacturing and treatment testing. But the actual research is founded by your taxpayers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The existence of billionaires is a policy failure⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, I read the OC idea as a symptom cure. It’s not as good as curing the cause, but symptoms need to be addressed too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The existence of billionaires is a policy failure⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no problem with the rich. In fact I love them! I’d love to have as many rich as possible.

  Unfortunately, that means, the gold hoarding dragon monsters we have currently at the top needs to go.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The existence of billionaires is a policy failure⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d go for 200% after 5 bil, because their wealth needs to be lowered.

  and had a reputation - deserved or not - as a shining beacon of freedom and democracy.

  As an European, I believe it was always only in USian minds. Noone on the continent thought so, we always saw you to be weird religious nuts who keep legal slaves to this day. Oh, and you’re warmongers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Discover Weekly feature has been quite effective.

  That used to be me.

  I listen mostly to old swing, jazz, etc. It was fine. How can you mess it up?

  And now I’m getting damn AI slop, pretending to be 1930’s music.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hmm breakfast⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Scrambled eggs or pancakes are the limit of the imagination I’ve seen from Italian restaurants. But most places have pastry or some variation of a sandwich that’s going to be mostly bread.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hmm breakfast⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Granted, I know Italy only from a tourist perspective.

  Every damn restaurant closes in the summer in the middle of the day. So do many shops.

  Italy rarely have breakfast restaurants - or at least what I’d consider a breakfast restaurant. Some variations of a premade ready to go sandwich ain’t it. And the good places ain’t open in the morning, but rather during brunch hours and serve brunch/lunch more than breakfast.

  brioche stuffed with ice-cream

  I know you’re joking. You’re kidding, right? :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hmm breakfast⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Coffee and sweat pastry, or Coffee is something I commonly saw in Italy (and only Italy)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hmm breakfast⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  While we’re shitting on breakfast culture in Europe I think that Italians have the worst. They have messed up daily rhythm (siesta and then dinner late in the evening)… Actually no, that’s not an excuse. They have garbage breakfast culture, period.

  Literally everyone else’s breakfasts are awesome.

  The one with a damn cord, you ageist bastard :P

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm blue ba da ba da dee da ba dieee⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the emphasis was on you calling it the normal town, instead of “boy town”.

  Calling it “normal” and other “girl town” means that the “girl town” is abnormal.

  I’m 35. Math major. Work in STEAM. Well educated.

  I hate analogue clocks. Why use subpar way of reading time if digital is so much better?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Velma can't math.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The new Velma show gave birth to THE best fanmade animation about Scooby Doo youtu.be/inJUFqeJehE

  So while I didn’t enjoy the show, I’m grateful for it

  Image

  Lemme clarify - do you mean just this (this is a normal window to me, common like sand).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They have a right to feel smug⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just get a detachable screen? We had them at my family home?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They have a right to feel smug⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why is a normal window there? Or does it do something special?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hope his set doesn't bomb⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you making a point that slaves in USA are treated better than slaves in Saudi Arabia?

  theguardian.com/…/us-prison-workers-low-wages-exp…

  800.000 legal slaves in the USA make more than $11 000 000 000 (11 billion) of goods and services annually.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hope his set doesn't bomb⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  USians have slaves, I don’t see anyone screaming about boosting an oppressive regime?

  Thanks. I keep forgetting how utterly rubbish the Mercator map really is. Greenland real size is what, 1/3 of Europe?

  What’s that landmass in A?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'My Advice to Users Is to Accept Reality and Tune, or to Not Play' — Randy Pitchford Is at the 'Get a Refund From Steam' Stage of the Borderlands 4 PC Performance Backlash⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wonderlands

  Interesting. To me that game was just the worst:

  Unskippable, long, very very very long, boring dialogues.

  Shitty weapons, but fantasy. E.g. no oomph feeling when you hit the enemy with a large ice explosions. It just scraps a little of their health.

  Boring, unchallenging fights.
