- Comment on How does the Chinese government even work 2 days ago:
The most glaring issue with their healthcare or other benefits is that the decision to have those things at all comes down to one party or even one man. That means there is nothing at all stopping those things from being taken away on a whim.
- Comment on Small Businesses Face a New Threat: Pay Up or Be Flooded With Bad Reviews 5 days ago:
New threat, same as the old threat. It’s the BBB, Yelp thing. Always has been. I bet newspapers in the olden-days did the same.

Also, I don’t know if people train for downward sloped shots. He may have over/under corrected.
- Comment on I Hate My Friend: The chatbot-enabled Friend necklace eavesdrops on your life and provides a running commentary that’s snarky and unhelpful. Worse, it can also make the people around you uneasy. 1 week ago:
I asked what the problem was, and it said, “Your microphone. Maybe your attitude. The possibilities are endless.” Now we were arguing. I asked what its capabilities were. It accused me of being dramatic and said things like, “I’m challenging your assumptions. That’s how we fix real problems.”
Lol, even snarking it’s full of slop.

One attendee who works at a Big Tech company, holding a bottle of wine he had finished throughout the night, joked they should kill me for wearing a listening device. (Not funny.) I yanked the pendant off and stuffed it in my purse.
Silicon Valley is a fucking cesspool.

Brampton man charged with conspiracy, intimidation, extortion and uttering threats: York police
The sub headline from that same article. The word “extortion”. You get that?
- Comment on Do gangs that collect protection money actually do any protecting? 5 weeks ago:
It’s rampant in my city. They shoot out the windows of your business at night. Only certain businesses get targeted and the media hardly reports any of it. But, here’s an example of one that made the news 2nd arrest made in alleged shootings at GTA movie theatres
There was a similar shooting at a business a few addresses down from my work last week.

- Comment on I have some very old CDs, mostly retro video games. Is there a way to pull the games and data off the CDs for preservation? 5 weeks ago:
Be carful when cleaning the dust off. The tiniest scratch could corrupt data.
- Comment on "ok, imagine a gun." 5 weeks ago:
Cloueuse pneumatique
Or pneumatic nailer
I don’t think any of those things are referred to as a gun in French. Just essentially “stapler”, “nailer”, “gluer”, ect
- Comment on Could someone please explain/Tldr the Subnautica 2 controversy? I liked the first one, but I'm severely out of the loop. 1 month ago:
There were some of the lead developers still left. But I completely agree. What I liked most about subnautica was all changed even before release. I wasn’t even going to look at the sequel.

They will instead irrationality believe that it’s working in their favour and be emboldened. They didn’t reach their position by being rational. Don’t let a bully tell you that you deserved it after he punches you in the face.

Difficulty?
- Comment on He is cooked 2 months ago:
The issue most likely seemed to me to be just that plus the fact that the google service would never retry on SMS when switched back to SMS. So your message wouldn’t be sent until the recipient had a WiFi connection. Ridiculous implementation.
- Comment on He is cooked 2 months ago:
Had some android phones that wouldn’t even notify you if your message didn’t send for like 45 minutes.

- Comment on Grandma is on her own 2 months ago:
It’s hard when you work with a guy like I do. He’s 65 and hates absolutely everybody, including his wife, but he’s a coward so he’s very polite. He requires so much coddling that he spends all day sucking up to everyone for whatever praise he can get then immediately turns around and complains about them. He’ll complain about everyone else to the point where they get their breaks, other privileges taken away. Those privileges are also taken from him, giving him more to complain about.
It gets worse, but I’m about to go to bed and don’t want to think about that.
That piece of fucking shit.

Were they the team that did pre-release subnautica 1? If not, not interested.

Maybe it isn’t just fooling ants?
Don’t know the advantage to fooling everything else but they are convincing. Worked in a warehouse that had a bunch of the red ones one summer. Everybody thought there was an ant problem but they seemed off to me. Firstly, they were never in groups, you’d only find lone ones wandering. Secondly, they walked like ants but held their “antennae” strangely. Lastly, when knocking one off a box I discovered they have a tether thread.

- Comment on I guess they hate shoppers (context below) 3 months ago:
I’ve seen three Sobey’s do this for many years. I assumed they didn’t have to right to use the parking lot like some other stores do, since the lots are never full. Totally on them for not managing their stock and making it our problem.
