I have to be oncall sometimes, and my teammates know that when they hear "kburgugh", that means I'll be online in a few minutes

Do you mean Subverse? Searching for Subspace is just redirecting me to Subverse, but maybe I'm missing it

I love IRC. I run my own instance where my friends and I hang out. It's super easy, and a lot of fun!

Maybe. As a buyer, I've had a few things never show up. Not stolen or anything, the tracking info says that they never showed up. But eBay still refuses to give me a refund.

You mean the other side that has been building up and supporting these systems that keep them "powerless", even when they have had power? The same side that keeps capitulating and trying to "reach accross the isle"?

Did it? All of the laptops I've gotten in the past 5 years still have those ports. But I don't buy Apple stuff.

- Comment on Game prices should have increased with every new generation, former PlayStation US boss says 2 weeks ago:
The costs only ballooned because the companies keep bloating themselves. It's gotten cheaper to make games, but more expensive to run giant companies that pay ludicrus amounts of money to executives.
- Comment on Anyone else from Europe feels the same while browsing the "All" feed? 2 weeks ago:
Agreed. When I tried Lemmy, it didn't have filters, so that was an immediate no for me. I just don't get the appeal of being fed a list, and not being able to filter out the noise.

Spiders would be great at that. They work super hard!
- Comment on Xbox Series X and S: Microsoft Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 30 Million Consoles This Generation 3 weeks ago:
I've been saying something similar for years: Consoles going online was the worst thing to ever happen to them. Their selling point used to be that you'd put in a cartridge/disc, and it would "just work". Now it has all the downsides of PC gaming, with none of the upsides.

Mine eventually did too :(
I'm on the lookout for better headphones, but I feel like I'm going to be stuck with a cable for a while, since BT is so bad

Huh, weird. I haven't dated in a looooong time, so I cant say if anything would be off about that.
- Comment on Admit it. WE all do this 5 weeks ago:
I've always tried to phrase it as "What do you do?", skipping the "for a living" part. That opens it up to more than just work. It could be "What do you do for a hobby?*", or "What do you do *for fun?*", or "What do you do *in your free time?", etc.
Sure, it's not the best conversation starter, but when I know nothing about someone, it's a good way to get the ball rolling.

The first time I heard it called "brain" was in the movie Waiting.
WARNING: There is some language in this clip that hasn't aged well, just like most of the movie.....

I'm all for people being able to bone other consenting adults, married or not, but these two clearly think that cheating is bad. If they had open relationships, then why would they care if they were seen together?

iI've heard variations on this for years, but here is where I found this specific version: https://jessicadavidson.co.uk/2016/03/04/how-long-does-it-take-to-become-enlightened/
A Buddhist monk approached his teacher and asked the Zen Master, “If I meditate very diligently, how long will it take for me to become enlightened?”
The Master thought for a moment, and then replied, “Ten years.”
The student then said, “But what if I work very, very hard and really apply myself to learn fast. How long then?”
The Master replied, “Well, then it will take twenty years.”
“But if I really, really work at it. How long then?” persisted the student.
“Thirty years,” said the Master.
“But I don’t understand,” said the disappointed student. “Each time I say I will work harder, you say it will take me longer. Why do you say that?”
The Master replied, “When you have one eye on the goal, you can only have one eye on the path.”

There was a candidate against it. If you'd had paid attention at the time, you would have noticed that. Also, voting against something is actually the opposite of voting for it.
- Comment on I'm gonna mute this one 2 months ago:
I will not, as I voted against it, which is more than the Democrats can say

I always read it as "It's not a big deal, as long as it's my team doing it". See also: Sending immigrants to torture prisons, rape, caring about corporations more than people, suppressing the working class, war, etc.

You mean the genocide that Harris said that she was going to support?
It's always amazing to me that Democrats get mad at people who couldn't stomach voting for genocide, instead of getting mad at the people who ran a pro-genocide campaign.
