- Comment on Not promoting violence or anything. But stupid quest since Iran has an 80 million bounty on Trumps head. If someone would follow thru do they just go to Iran and be like pay up? Why or why not? 1 week ago:
Pretty much my assessment.
I can have 80 million dollars but I have to live my life in constant fear and in Iran.

Not too long after it came out I was good at Siege and I mean good I was ranked in the top 1000 players and I thought that was pretty badass. I got a DM from some guy who was like “Hey I’m from TEAM and we wanted to know if you wanted to try out for our Siege squad?” I said thanks but no thanks, I have a mortgage and a full time and then some job. I dont want to take on the obligation.
I then went and googled the team, I was being courted by serious professional players. I still decided I didnt want that headache but as someone who has always been an underachiever it was like an IRL achievement popup or a level up notification. Like… look what I can achieve when I actually give a fuck and put the work in.

A lot of fun.

Yeah, I used to just accumulate every meme I could at LANs back before people called them memes. I think at the time Id just upgraded to an 8 Gig hdd.
I had memes about Windows 95.
- Comment on Open early for breakfast 3 weeks ago:
That meme is old as fuck. I legitimately burned a cd of “funny pictures” with this on it 25 years ago for a friend in highschool because we both had dialup and sharing pictures was just too cumbersome.

My prediction is that sony and microsoft will have benchmarks 3rd party devices have to hit in order to buy a “PS6 Compatable” logo for their product. So you can buy a Msi Claw 3 or whatever, sign into the PSN and shop the sony catalogue.

In many countries that have socialised healthcare smokers on average contribute 2 to 3 times what their healthcare costs the government in taxes on cigarettes alone over their lifetime. So I mean… you’re welcome.

Because my boss knows if he tries to make me pick between my job and my baby girl… He WILL lose. There wont be a discussion or an argument, he will lose, I might get fired but so be it.
Once people have kids they have more to lose, but running head to head with them instead of making minor concessions is the dumb move. Theres always another job and guaranteed they will start looking immediately if they dont quit outright if you pick that fight. As a supervisor at my job people with kids are also more inclined to bust arse to make sure people arent carrying their load when they do need a bit of special treatment because they still need to provide and have a solid income.

If its a yes or no question “Do you think Brian Johnson should have been killed?” My answer is No.
If you ask me “on a scale of 1 to 10 how much do you care about Brian Johnson being killed?” I’m going to ask if I can use decimal points because a 1 isnt low enough.
I can simultaniously not advocate for people murdering other people over their ideals and really not be too distraught when someone who pretty clearly has some sort of karmic retribution due gets their comeuppance.

Pay attention, you are about to watch whats known as a “smear campaign”
Every edgy facebook post, every website that could be construed as “extremist”, any possible history of mental illness. They are gonna drag him through the mud, even if they have to manufacture the mud.
Ive been saying all along that the best result we can hope for is that he was never found or identified, because before now he was able to be idolised for whatever ideals we wanted him to have. I guarantee they are going to find a way to make him a pariah.
- Comment on Funko, BrandShield speak out about itch.io takedown 5 weeks ago:
Ive had companies call my mom over stuff because the last known contact information they found for me was from when I was still living with my parents. Literally years after I moved out.
The “A.I” excuse stuff reads like bullshit. The mom call might just be old information.
- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 1 month ago:
Your Aunt sounds like she is working with the system we have. Lemmys heart is in the right place but practically speaking most of the vitriol you read on here would need a genie in a magic lamp to come true. We need to squeeze the top the hardest, not squeeze everyone with more than us.
Once they abolish people buying properties and parking them empty just to make money on the property value increasing, then they abolish corporations owning hundreds or thousands of houses while colluding to fix the rental market, then they abolish people buying family dwellings and turning them into airbnbs, then the property developers churning out acre upon acre of McMansions with zero affordable housing, then the foreign investors, then maybe listen to their criticism of mom and pop investors owning a handful of properties and making what is probably the safest and most lucrative investment honest hard working people can make.

Nah fuck them, its fake internet points I dont give a shit.
Squeeze from the top down, not squeeze everyone with more than me. Thats the attitude that pushes the middle class to conservative voting and we can either advocate for sensible changes or scream into the void.

Is that the standard package they all receive? All of them? In every industry everywhere?
Let’s calm down on the “everyone on a board of directors probably needs shooting” energy. There’s am awful lot of medium size companies staffed by regular every day people for every fat cat evil corporate overlord. The guy with a 3yo Audi on a lease is not the same as the guy who has a driver for his Maybach.

- Comment on Scalper economy 1 month ago:
Im advocating for pushing the wealth from the top down. Make it financially non viable to own hundreds of houses, make it seriously sub optimal to own dozens.
A lot of new development is driven by investors, to build a new house you need to live somewhere while its built, and pay for the land and pay for the build in stages as it goes. That pretty much requires you to be able to cover two mortgages at once. Most investors I’ve met are buying off the plan when its a block of dirt or an unleveled paddock and consequently getting it CHEAP. They pay say $500k for a house that will sell for $800k when its finished because average working people cant cover the difference. But the house gets built and adds more supply to the system.
If you destroy property investing as a market, you will seriously hamstring new development and make the problem worse. You need to make owning thousands over the long term nonviable but make investing and adding to the supply be the money maker.
