Your brain is an electro-chemical machine, it gives of waves and electromagnetic signature. That’s your soul. Upon death if we captures that signature and held it in a containment field (like soul in a can) you could then disgard it because its useless.
- Comment on Is there any other meats that are a good comparison for the taste of venison? 1 day ago:
Have you had wild game before? As an analogy wild game is like the difference between iceburg lettuce (farmed beef) or fresh Arugala (Moose). It has actual flavour and people aren’t used to it.

Lol. I have a mouse and keyboard switcher that has the USB ports upside down. It is very frustrating.

And if that is the situation, at least skip some pleasantries and contribute to a fund that has growth so you can afford rent later in life. That’s the issue I see, people with get to 65 and have a tiny government pension that won’t cover groceries and such, let alone rent

This. I was going to mention the depracating property. Our place needs a new roof soon. I have seen people skip it as well as lots of other outside water shielding maintenance and the place is a rotten mess 50 years later

It must be a personal issue because I have been a screen starer for 35-40 years and don’t have this issue. One of my kids got itz and the remedy was morning and night eye washing.

There’s a middle ground somewhere between the extremes… I was lucky that I got out of school at a still good time. But it still took sacrifice to get what you wanted.
Like sometimes I was cutting mold off the bread to make a sandwich for work, and only home cooked food, and no budget for entertainmentn expenses. It got us a two bedroom house for the, baby, plus car and motorcycle. That was on one salary, but I realize that ain’t happening today.
But also I have seen family members of the young generation order a smoothy on skip, purchase $300 concert tickets, while racking up debt…while complaining of cost of living.
They aren’t getting a 2 bedroom house on one salary with 5% down, but they certainly could be saving for one by making some spending adjustments.

The bubble could pop though and you lose out. The market has softened near us and there are people that have lost 100s of thousands in equity already, and are upside down in the mortgage

They mean if they sold it now they’d have 50 years of rent now, instead of waiting 50 years to accumulate that amount. All that money now is worth more then getting it later.

Can confirm. Every job move upward is because I knew a guy.
- Comment on Is it possible to change your IQ? 2 days ago:
You can definitely educate yourself where you might score higher on a standard test because the concepts presented aren’t as seeming obscure, but IQ is supposed to be a measure of underlying thinking I’m not sure that improves over a lifetime.

- Comment on Why are some Linux community so toxic? 5 days ago:
The loudest voices are the ones you hear. There’s a lot of young angsty kids who have gotten into Linux and then become the vocal majority, while wiser folks are off doing other activities that don’t entail berating new comers.

Ha I know of a couple where this fits. Asian guy is living in Canada brings over his asian wife from mainland.
Their life consists of take out food and watching crap videos on a phone, with garbage piling up in a single bedroom suite.
I think those were probably her exact words.
