- Comment on Venmo overdrafted my bank rather than use the balance in my account 3 weeks ago:
Yeah it’s a sneaky marketing term. In the worst cases, they’ll charge you a fee and let your balance go negative. I personally would rather my account reject a payment if I don’t have the funds rather than letting it go through and charging me for it.
- Comment on Might be time to find another job 3 weeks ago:
My office provides free milk, but they some times don’t refill it for days, so whether you’ll have milk for your coffee becomes a gamble and then people get pissed when it’s not there. My solution is to just buy or bring my coffee with milk before work and drink tea at work (don’t take milk).
- Comment on What are your approaches to donating? 4 weeks ago:
I give to politicians I really believe in. Occasionally, I give to nonprofits I support. My biggest gripe about giving is getting put on some stupid mailing list, where they send you junk mail. If I could give without telling them my identity, I would be more likely.
- Comment on Christian Selig, Apollo App Developer sits down for an AMA with Digg founder, Kevin Rose 5 weeks ago:
It’s still in development, but if you sign up on digg.com you’ll get access to a community space where you can request access to the alpha build. I think the alpha is mostly iOS now, with android on the way.

- Comment on where are worker rights parades? why are we focusing on very limited issues? 1 month ago:
I agree, I think it’s a strategy to separate the left. We should have a workers movement because it will literally unite everyone that is not a 1 percenter

If I’m gonna die in a car accident, I’d at least prefer it to be my own fault.

Didn’t they also require the curriculum to teach that J6 was not an attempted coup and that the 2020 election was stolen?
- Comment on My password is not accepted because it is too long 2 months ago:
At least they tell you. I’ve had inputs take the full password and then truncate it silently, so you don’t actually know what they saved. Then, you try to login and they tell you wrong password.

- Comment on Doom the dark ages... 2 months ago:
I feel the same. The atmosphere is decidedly less doom-like in my view and I’m a little skeptical of these new gameplay mechanics. Riding flying dragons? I’m also not a fan of the way Marty Stratton handled the situation with Mick Gordon. I bought Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal on launch. I will not buy this game until it is bargain bin prices.
- Comment on Nearly 5 years in, PS5 sales remain neck-and-neck with PS4 | VGC 2 months ago:
Yeah, the hardest thing is really going to be GTA6. The reason I bought a PS4 was GTA5. Needing to wait 2 years to play GTA6 on PC will be a tough thing to swing.
- Comment on Nearly 5 years in, PS5 sales remain neck-and-neck with PS4 | VGC 2 months ago:
This is true for me. I did not buy a ps5, but instead a PC. There are no games on ps5 that I want to play that I cannot play on PC.

- Comment on What can the global left learn from Mexico – where far-right politics hasn’t taken off? 2 months ago:
I think since Reagan breaking the unions and NAFTA, regular Americans have felt their economic power decline. That makes people bitter and angry. They just want to burn things down and throw a tantrum rather than creating any type of country where someone other than them might succeed.

HL3 needs to advance the Half-Life story. Alyx advanced the story about 2 minutes from HL2 because it was a side-story.

They gave him emergency tariff powers. Idiots.
- Comment on LinkedIn’s cofounder Reid Hoffman says seeking work-life balance is a red flag that you’re ‘not committed to winning’ 3 months ago:
Until I have the same unlimited upside as a founder does, I’m committed to work life balance. If you’re a wage employee, there is not point in giving your life to your job.
- Comment on Half Life: Alyx is Five Years Old Today 3 months ago:
You’re able to tolerate moving around without teleport? I have a pretty strong stomach and never get sick on boats or planes, but that just completely fucks me up. I can tolerate it for about 20 minutes, but after that I’m ready to hurl.
- Comment on Half Life: Alyx is Five Years Old Today 3 months ago:
I played it last year. It was certainly interesting, though it showed me the challenges of VR games. Before, I always hated the idea of using the teleport feature because it seems cheesy. However, after several tries without it, I can say it’s necessary. You end up feeling very nauseous otherwise. But, as a player you’re just way less capable than non-VR games. You can’t move around as easily and so you can’t take on as many enemies or maneuver as easily around the map. In most encounters with enemies, you can only fight a max of maybe 3, before you start to feel overwhelmed. Even 1 is usually enough to feel stressed and when those saw drones fly at you, you’ll panic and possibly yank a cable or get disoriented and bump into something in the real world. Crouching behind cover and shooting is pretty cool though — possibly the most immersive part.

I think you’re missing that we are being deeply manipulated by hoards of foreign influence campaigns. Social media has exploded propaganda in the US and divided the population. Some of this propaganda also comes from internal sources.
