  And nobody forces you to have kids, you know? If anything that’s just saying to make sure to make choices that you will be happy with in your life

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's bad man⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  As you grow you will keep appreciating the growing amounts of personal development

  Eventually you think back to when you were worried about turning 25 and you’ll think “why would I ever wanna be 25 again? I had so much less knowledge and experience back then”

  Externalizing all of the difficult thinking to an LLM won’t exactly make you a skilled individual

  So, yeah, if you plan to go to uni to just use LLMs because it’s less challenging to you, then there indeed is no point

  But there’s never no point in actually learning those skills yourself. Just as there’s not no point in learning how arithmetics work, even though you can just use a calculator

  Lmaoo building the Bob Semple tank, now that’s something

  And herein lies the core of the issue of “business is a warzone/you need to be ruthless”

  It’s in the business’ best interest to treat their employees well

  If you have no allies, who are you left with?

  Yeah but like, the water is just going to clean everything off. Especially turbulent water like a hot tub

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨French culture⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Actually, you’re right, I didn’t even think about it

  If I wrote “I love to read, I read an interesting book every day”, then the way you say the latter ‘read’ shifts from my original example, and it depends on context that comes later in the sentence

  Wack

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨French culture⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “I love to read, I read an interesting book yesterday”

  Seriously, who came up with this shit 😭

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I don't know who The Rizzler is and Im not interested.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would that be a sign of wikipedia’s decline?

  Should they not document a famous figure? It doesn’t matter whether it’s ridiculous or not, value judgement is not an encyclopedia’s place to do

  What do you mean ruined?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Possession⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t read the books (yet), so I don’t know how closely it resembles the condition in reality, but crucially, it’s a real thing, it’s not a magical fantasy possesion

  In other words, literal time travel

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Straight people, do you know what the Grindr notification sound is?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Only older people from what I’ve seen. At least, whenever I hear a ping out in public, it’s always someone older

  So, to answer your question, no, not really

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kawaiiiiiii⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh 😭 lmaooo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kawaiiiiiii⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think vision would fall girly within the realms of physics. I don’t know if you can justifiably call it visual anymore when it incorporates magic

  It’s like, if there’s magic bow that launches arrows at a far greater rate than it normally would, would you say that the energy comes from the buildup and release of tension in the wood? There’s another element there, which enhances the thing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kawaiiiiiii⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That would fall under “nonvisual perception”

  It’s good it didn’t, otherwise it’s possible that all the hydrogen in the ocean would be fused into helium by now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What kind of CAPTCHA is this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lmao yeah, I thought “haha funny joke” but people were genuinely asking

  For future reference, never run any script or code or command unless you know what it is and does

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know about you, but I am very reluctant to insult others, even in private conversations, even if they might deserve it

  I always try to approach things constructively, because in the end, those patterns and thoughts bleed out into the world and your behaviour

  And do keep in mind, even from the person’s who was part of the asshole gang side of the story, it sounds pretty darn bad, and people have a tendency to downplay their side’s wrongdoings and elevate the other side’s. Chances are, it was probably quite bad

  If there’s people in my life that go around talking badly about other like that, even in private… yeah, I’d want to stay the hell away from them too. It’s just a massive warming sign, and you’re going to be the target sooner or later. And you don’t want a coordinated group acting in bad faith against you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mother⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, but I don’t think this was intentional suffocation of the kids. This seems much more as an attempt to get everyone to survive

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He's just eccentric⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And yet, despite people saying what you say, I still struggle far more than neurotypical people and they can’t understand why

  I am diagnosed with both, and do relate to social media posts regarding the combination of both

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe part of it is the whole “greatest country on earth” stuff as well. In other words, a lack of humility

  In the European countries I’ve lived in, pride like that wasn’t really encouraged. And if you’re too boastful or what not to the point of arrogance, you tend to get the stink eye

  And this applies to patriotism as well. Here in Norway for example, despite us having a stronger claim for stuff like “greatest country”, very few people, if any, really feel like being “proud” of one’s own country is something that one should be doing, or it being honorable at all. The best I see is that people enjoy living here and, if they see another Norwegian out there or Norway mentioned, they just get happy to see a fellow Norwegian, just because we are relatively small

  Honestly, most Norwegians I’ve met complain about Norway’s problems more often than not lmao, despite, all things considered, you can hardly find better countries to live in, except some other European ones depending on your own preferences

  There really is just, no culture of like, arrogance. Something that I feel like is very different to the US with its super heavy emphasis on individual capitalistic success

  Maybe that’s a large part of it as well. A consequence of American culture being so extremely individualistic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would world politics be like if the top 100 countries (in terms of military strength) all had their own nuclear arsenals?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We’ve gotten very uncomfortably close to a nuclear exchange multiple times in history

  The only reason it didn’t happen is pure luck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would world politics be like if the top 100 countries (in terms of military strength) all had their own nuclear arsenals?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Until one of them fires the nukes, that is. But sure, it might not happen

  It’s like paying your rent by playing Russian roulette

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The specter of a GTA 6 delay haunts the games industry: 'Some companies are going to tank' if they guess wrong, says analyst⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But also don’t forget that the amount of gamers is larger today than in 2013. Gaming is much more mainstream, and so even 97% of the install base is still disappointing considering steam grew by, what, 3x or something in terms of average monthly users?

  Another source I found is that the amount of total gamers grew by roughly 50% from 2013 to 2025. But yeah, I just did a quick skin numbers are not precise

  But still, 97% is disappointing considering the general demographic was supposed to grow. And then, in reality, it’s just 67% too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Luigi Mangione, accused of US CEO murder, depicted in London mural⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The cost of living crisis is global. Exploitation of labour is global. Everything for profit’s sake is global. Climate action being hampered due to corporate interests is global. Wealth inequality rising is global.

  What’s the alternative? Continuing as we have so far? Doesn’t seem to have worked out so great.
