It’s shit like this that I hate YT. Garbage content just get boredom clicks. Fuck YT and fuck the people who harass employees who probably hate their jobs without pranks.

Instead, and replaced EPA standards for greenhouse gases and burning COAL! Cool -__-
- Comment on Do you still believe in having friends despite there being long, long gaps of time between the last time you communicated or hung out? 4 days ago:
Absolutely this. I tried keeping in touch with people, but social media made that actually harder to maintain, then evolved into the shit pile it is. I jumped ship in 2015-2016 and went back to my core group of friends
My “friends” are the people I’d bend over backwards for whether they’d do the same or not (don’t need them to reciprocate), but I’m sure they’d do that for me if needed. With all of us having kids 1-10 years, and living up to an hour apart, and working different schedules, we still make efforts around breaks or holidays to hang out or visit-however brief.

Yikes, and I thought I hated my LG fridge with the stupid compressor issues 4 times in 5 years across 2 fridges.

- Comment on The Steam Frame Is More Than Just Another VR Headset - Aftermath (Chris Person) 2 weeks ago:
I loved my Lenovo Explorer WMR headset. When everyone else struggled to get much beyond 1080, this was 2880x1440 in 90hz. It also had the dots for tracking on the controllers, with 2 cameras mounted so you didn’t need room sensors. Beyond its time.
My 2x GTX670 SC 4GB in SLI ate every VR experience I threw a it!! I miss Pavlov VR, Assetto Corsa 2, and the freebie Steam game with mini stick figure people where you’re an archer shooting other stick people protecting your castle!! 🥹
- Comment on Apple's rumored gaming controller for iPhone could feature Beats branding 2 weeks ago:
Well it’s more PSA for anyone who’s unfamiliar.
Usually I find the best companies are often the longstanding ones you’ve not heard of. Like Sennheiser, it was one I discovered years ago purely by accident when using Pro equipment and fell in love. Far better than anything “Bose” or “Beats”.
- Comment on Apple's rumored gaming controller for iPhone could feature Beats branding 2 weeks ago:
Beats is owned by Apple now iirc, and all that is, is a licensing ploy for more money. There’s nothing fancy about “Beats” anymore and hasn’t been for a long time! Like when HP had beats branded speakers, they just had to use better quality audio and a certain software, and they licensed the name. Beats didn’t make anything.
Same goes for car audio. 99%of the time, Bose, Infinity, Rockford Fosgate, Harman Kardon, Alpine, Pioneer, Sony (🤮), etc. They’re licensing the name only, not truly being made by said audio companies. At most, there’s a certain standard of sound quality that needs to be met, but that’s it.
- Comment on It'll fit 2 weeks ago:
Sort of. Let’s say the 16 were to the brim and it won’t zip with 17. You could fit an extra 4 by stacking it on top of those 16, and while it’d cause more “empty space” around those 4, there’s enough “slack” in the baggie to allow it to fit.
- Comment on It'll fit 2 weeks ago:
So, y’all just pack baggies 2 dimensionally?? I get it’s a shitpost, but, this is shitty shit…

Damn, touche.

Hey, last I checked, you have omnivores, vegetarians, and vegans. Pretty much no one is purely carnivore. Besides, I’ve never heard of an omnivore complain about having to eat “plants” (spices), unless it’s a child who doesn’t like broccoli or something.

Yes, but really, no, in this situation… Look at the other comment pawb.social/comment/24159500
This is likely the case, done like the matrix where there are differing scenes, exposures, coloring and/or filters between worlds so the viewers can differentiate.
This is proven bc I can watch old HP on my old 2011 FHD TV and it doesn’t look entirely different than my newer UHD HDR screen. It’s that way on purpose. Otherwise older films would all be blown out with coloring or contrast too, and they’re not. Only retouching when going from VHS to DVD and/or DVD to Blu Ray, etc. Format changes do usually get a remastering.

Doesn’t matter if it’s staged and he doesn’t also outside, Bear does show you how to do stuff. Les would never jump into quick sand nearly to his neck just to teach you how to get out. Bear would, and did.
- Comment on Minimum wage isn't survivable anymore 3 weeks ago:
And just think, iirc 19 States still utilize federal minimum wage… So, less than half of $15/hr.

Watch, they’re going to spend over $1t to advertise to get Americans to “feel healthier” just to raise the age… They won’t actually do anything beneficial.
- Comment on Why is USD susceptible to counterfeit in comparison to CHF? 3 weeks ago:
I believe something to full with how USD of note widely accepted across multiple boarders/countries. It’s been the standard for a long time when trading oil iirc too.
Sounds like US currency is easier to fake, which is another reason it’s sought after by counterfeiters. Why try to replicate something like Swiss Francs that’s less accepted and harder to replicate?
- Comment on Is ASHDOL a good company for an external cd/dvd drive? 4 weeks ago:
LG, Asus, Sony, or Verbatim would be reliable brands. Even Dell & HP make a couple.
I wouldn’t use anything else, especially the weird letter grouping brands on Amazon that try to sound like a brand but are fake.
- Comment on What is the best and worst USA state to live in? And why? 4 weeks ago:
OK cool, not a pissing match. I’m just saying Illinois isn’t great, I said not much to do outside Chicago. By living outside Chicago, you’re still stuck with some of the highest property taxes in the nation while not earning big city money.
Also, like NY and CA, very anti 2A, which kind of sucks.
- Comment on What is the best and worst USA state to live in? And why? 4 weeks ago:
How? I’m not in the city, but unless you can get a city job and love in the suburb, I don’t see how it affordable! We pay nearly $7600/year in property taxes, and further towards the city, it’s over 10-12k+. That’s $1k/month in tax alone.
