I see that

Sure I get that. I’m thinking just in a situation where I am describing a stranger. Like “hey front desk person, a dark skinned man with a blue hat dropped his keys but I didnt see what room he went in. I have to leave so I’m leaving them with you”

I think its better to just bypass all of that unless you actually know where they are from and just say, dark skinned fellow. Light skinned woman. There is nothing wrong with using a descriptor.

I find nothing wrong with mentally challenged.
Side note, this is one of the biggest reasons people hate the Left. Like, theres bigger shit to worry about than a word.

Yeah, pisses me off they made me waste my young years thinking this. If only we could reset. Oh well, I still got time.
- Comment on How come when paying cash for gas, it is not like a coke machine where you can insert your money? And when it hits that limit it clicks off? 5 days ago:
No, you have to put the extra gas in your pockets for later, like a buffet

- Comment on Disc drive needed 1 week ago:
Yeah idk. Burned CDs can go bad easier ofc and theyre harder on lasers than factory made
- Comment on Disc drive needed 1 week ago:
I keep hearing this but Ive yet to find an unreadable disk. I think they are way more robust than most think. Same with vhs. Never had an issue even after being stores in non climate controlled storages for years.
- Comment on Disc drive needed 1 week ago:
Still doing it today. Its not an old thing. I have hundreds of Cds. Best form of physical media for me.
Especially with insanity HDD costs. I did the math, and while ridiculous, buying blank DVDs vs a 12 tb hard drive is only minimally more expensive and discs last longer. HDDs die all the time.
Obviously I still use drives but disks are definitely viable especially as data centers continue to ruin everything.

Must have had an annoying intern that day 😉

“Why are you booing him, he’s right”
You may just not deal with these same insufferable young folks that actually ARE priveleged and are upset they dont get everything handed to them. I’m not talking about the average Lemmy user with a masters degree struggling to put in 400 job resumes. Not the same people.
- Comment on I need a break 1 week ago:
I mean, its predictable I would say I wasnt actually an idiot asshole at a young age. I always loved learning and could usually decipher wrong from right (in general at least). Maybe thats just cuz of the 'tism, but I was basically 40 when I was 9 😅
- Comment on I need a break 1 week ago:
As usual, young people are idiots 😅 I do the same. We dont need to be addicted to our phones. These kids cannot survive 5 minutes without it and it broke their brains.
Tech is fine. Addiction is not. This coming from someone with 20+ game systems and 200 steam games lol. And like 6 PCs. Tech and learning is great. Social media billionaire funded brainrot, needs to die.

Get a few CRT TVs. After a while you won’t be bothered by background noise 🫠

Yikes. Its really sad that I bet this is EXTREMELY common. Further degrading of human society.

First ive heard of it!
- Comment on What am I doing wrong with Linux/NAS permissions? 2 weeks ago:
Ugh I have the same problems. My synology nas whenever I Mount it I can’t do anything to it unless I open the folder as root. I also can’t download directly to it because of this. Its hard.

- Comment on Anon is 23 2 weeks ago:
I keep telling myself I need to get off the computer and get into the garage and do some real shit. I just really enjoy computing in general though, especially learning Linux. The other issue is that “real shit” allllll costs money. Its free for me to learn Linux all day. It costs thousands to to an engine swap. Even building some wood shelves…hundreds of doars in wood and screws. Plus its hard on the body…idk man. I’m glad I’m old so I dont have to think much about future shit. If I were graduating now I’d be ultra depressed.

Yeah mechcanic is a dead job. You want to be an EE or CS degree, cars are rolling spyware with a billion chips now.
However, body work will always exist!!
- Comment on Anon is 23 2 weeks ago:
Yet folks on my Lemmy post said its the best time ever to start a business and everyone can do it. I do not understand how. Even though I have hard work ethic and a ton of ideas. I do not get how it works.
- Comment on Is there a ranting or venting community? 2 weeks ago:
I use rant or vent. Idk, I have a lot of rants though and no one cares even though they directly affect our lives. No one wants to hear it

Imagine a 20s baby experiencing this. They’ll realize what was taken from them , hopefully.
- Comment on Me_irl 3 weeks ago:
Sure, but it will be used for evil more often than good, so I’d rather not have it at all. Never once did I notice my ps2 game needed any sort of patch or update. And guess what, they all still work perfectly. And if the disc goes bad I can covert to SD or Ethernet .
