yeah but thats the point of X. its not R. I mean clock work orange is all kinds of effed up but its a great movie. X means graphic sex, or violence, or worse. I think they had another designation at some point that was like super X but I think folks never really paid attention to it.

This seems dumb. Give it an X rating or whatnot and limit it to adult purchases.

- Comment on Microsoft finally admits almost all major Windows 11 core features are broken 1 day ago:
This was talked about even 15 years ago. The os does not make them much money over office and azure so it was thought they might get out of the os game. I mean they do a fair amount on other peoples mobile oses.

this sounds like the housing market stuff. you want folks to spend then get them jobs that provide for food and shelter and utilities and health insurance and then enough extra to spend on stuff.

Coming from the us there seems to be three types of people. People who see the country as on the razors edge of becoming an unacceptable place to live for any modern person, those gung ho about it, and those who are aware but yeah day to day is day to day.

as said common in usa but I swear I saw a tech to like burn print things with peels to make these unnecessary. Feels like if it worked well enough we should be seeing it by now.

Got me. I get a little annoyed with subgroup specific stuff like veterans and cops. Its like how bout we help everyone equally? Nope can’t do that. I mean we don’t have universal healthcare even but hey if we can’t do a citizens income how about universal snap.

Its a dodge.
- Comment on Do you have a flagship phone or a car that's 2021/newer but are struggling financially? 1 week ago:
Our discussions go on for some years because we will need to save to get to the point of replacement. Its more like. Gee the car is getting up in years. They sorta ruined the model so we have to start thinking about what we would want for a replacement. We need to carve out time to do some test rides of possible models.
- Comment on Do you have a flagship phone or a car that's 2021/newer but are struggling financially? 1 week ago:
nope. Although if I was not struggling I would likely be discussing cars with my wife as ours is 10 years old.

They pretend that its not a zero sum game but they act like it is a zero sum game.
- Comment on Valve Reveals New Hardware Lineup: A Controller, Compact Gaming PC, and VR-Ready Headset 1 week ago:
yeah but it means heavier than needed because of what had to be put in capability to run games. I would rather they make a belt holder for the deck and keep the headset as light as possible. Also would prefer something that can be worn with glasses rather than getting special lenses.
- Comment on Valve Reveals New Hardware Lineup: A Controller, Compact Gaming PC, and VR-Ready Headset 1 week ago:
darn. I really wanted the vr to conentrate on external screen and being light as possible. working with the deck or pc. sounds like its trying to be a device in itself.

do birds chirp on a loop near you? Mine keep a certain cadence but its always unique.
- Comment on People who don't wear earphones outside - why, and what do you do instead? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t listen to things necessarily day to day. If I commute regularly on a train I may. I may be in my head or I may pay attention to the world. I do like trying to be present. When I walk my dog its about walking my dog so I let her go where she may, mostly, and watch her and wonder about what she is experiencing with her superior sense of smell and if she will notice that person and animal way over and be happy to see a friend. When running errands I think about what I need and where in the store I will go to retrieve it. I check the price per unit maybe doing a bit of math to determine the best value. While waiting in line may people watch a bit. Can think about something I read hear or saw on the news or how I will approach the next segment of a game im playing.

- Comment on Sliced off the tip of my thumb, what are some good one handed games? 2 weeks ago:
if they are still active the mmo’s champions online and star trek online are tab targeting and even allow for some scripting. I actually had posted on reddit that I would like for people with disabilities to know about them. the right builds can be done with input every so often that does not need to be split second (some roles do require a bit more timing but if its just one handed its toatlly doable)
