- Comment on Warner Bros. Cancels Planned ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ Game Expansion 2 weeks ago:
So are you going to make a bad faith argument that Microsoft, Google, Apple, Sony, Nintendo, Steam or who is a good company to buy platforms or games from? Note, most games brought to Linux happen because much of it was funded off selling off those platforms as well. So in todays world if you want Linux games, you have to hope people keep buying them on those major platforms.
Or are you just going to take the low road of describing yourself as better than everyone else because you only play niche unprofitable games that most people will never hear of and therefor most of society who doesnt have large amounts of time to invest in games likely won’t ever see.
- Comment on Rocky rock rocking 2 weeks ago:
My first thought was it being an incorrect first line and my brain went “and I’m getting stoned.”
“She got a rock And I’m gettin’ stoned”
But then had that very programmed feeling of you shouldn’t say that because you aren’t getting stoned and you don’t want people to think of you as getting up and getting stoned on a Saturday morning. Talk about being programmed to fear what other people think.
Anyways Eric Church has a couple songs I liked
- Comment on What exercises should i do at the gym to correct winged scapula and rounded shoulders? 2 weeks ago:
Good luck out there, be kind and no matter what anyone else thinks I’m sure you’ll look good anywhere you go. Insert kindness is beautiful quote here haha
- Comment on What exercises should i do at the gym to correct winged scapula and rounded shoulders? 2 weeks ago:
Dumbledurp put a site above that lists exercises for various areas. Deltoids was one he mentioned for the back and deadlifts actually fell into that category. I know fuck all about what is healthy or not for the gym, but that site does appear to have information on there that could help point you in the right direction and then do some fact checking to make sure.
- Comment on I present my girlfriend's daughter. 2 weeks ago:
I do very often on Lemmy as well because I used to have trouble with the app I use (works great now) but when it first came out accidentally clicking the wrong button would sometimes crash it or knock me back to page before or my home feed. Then I’d realize I lost 2 paragraphs of text I typed and I’d say well fuck if it’s long enough that you don’t want to find that exact comment again to respond to and type it over, it probably wasn’t worth typing anyways. (Which unfortunately decreases interactions for users on the site, which ultimately hurts how many active users we end up with.).
Now I’m just making excuses for myself being feisty with my keyboard.
- Comment on I present my girlfriend's daughter. 2 weeks ago:
I can’t seem to learn this. I’m so used to being able to edit messages post sending them that I just use the send button as a save command. Type something. Ctrl S, go back and edit.
It’s dumb, but I still do it.
- Comment on The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme 3 weeks ago:
They hurt everyone else involved intentionally do to a sense of self richeousness. It’s a textbook definition of narcicism. It’s narcissistic for you and I to defend any of their actions as well. As you said. It’s narcissistic for us to think something is always someone else’s fault.
If someone calls the person they are going through a breakup with a self richeous dingbat who likes to tear down everyone around them in a private chat it’s not a nice thing to do. It also didn’t hurt that person until Derek brought it to their attention in an attempt to hurt the speaker while upsetting/hurting the person who was called names. Especially digging up things from years ago. These people aren’t running for office, they are kids dealing with life in a place of privacy. The number of people I’ve heard call soneone a little dicked asshole who isn’t good in bed is around 50. Never once would I think spreading that information to them or their friends group would be for the greater good. The person is hurt and lashing out. It’s often best to let them recover and sort out their own situation. If they were making plans to harm someone that’s another story, but that isn’t what happened here it appears.

Is the person who made the comments a narcissist, yes. Is the person who screen shorted it and shared it also a narcissist, absolutely.

- Comment on Is 33 cents a small amount of money? 4 weeks ago:
To be more specific the first 100,000 isn’t taxed at 28%. The 44 to 100k range would be, but below that will be taxed at lower percentages. The first ~10k you make is taxed at 10%, and then it increases throughout.
- Comment on does someone who lives very far away from me (for example 1900 miles) see the same night sky as me? (as in moon, stars, etc) 5 weeks ago:
Yeah it’s 7000+ km from Florida to London, yet they both can see the Sun at the same time. You can’t see every star the same, but much of the sky will overlap.
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 5 weeks ago:
Is this a joke or did you just state these places exist without naming any?
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 5 weeks ago:
That’s great and all, but you do realize that in the end that ends up being pro large corporations and limiting freedoms of the people. Cities and towns would be best built that way I agree but the chances that we can completely revoke capitalism is verryyy slim. In such every convenient/grocery store in those neighborhoods would be bought up by money and reduce prices to run out small owners. People not being able to grow their own food or raise their own chickens reduces ones ability to feed themselves independently. Communal neighborhood farms are an alternative which I have seen before, but they are rare and require space as well
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 5 weeks ago:
.25 acres? Can we up that to at least an acre. I need a place for my chickens to roam and to plant my gardens, and I prefer to have a fire pit with outdoor patio furniture and a grill. Many places an acre is the standard plot size.
- Comment on This letter from "Friends of Zion" my grandmother received today 1 month ago:
The Hannibal directive was used by Israel to intentionally target and kill any Israeli prisoners being taken on Oct. 7. Israel has come out and said it. The attack was horrible, but every action by Israel was about wiping Gaza off the map. They were just looking for “acceptable” ways to accomplish it. As for torturing people, many Palestinians who were not part of Hamas were held and tortured. The people who returned to Israel all seem to be saying they weren’t tortured and were mostly bored sitting around waiting. It very much seems like a situation where a group was marginalized, constantly poked and proded, and then when someone responds they use it as reason to invoke further marginalization. Over and over until a “terrorist” organization was formed. Without such treatment, Hamas would have had no reason to exist. Zionism appears to have caused the entire issue.
- Comment on HELP! How do I help educate my son about his body when I know nothing about boys?? 1 month ago:
Yeah, people make stupid decisions no matter their gender, ideologies, or whatever else. I think one of the things I wish I would have learned more about at that age was the absence of structure. School is all very structured. Everything is about checking a box. Get this prerequisite, go to these classes. Be there at set times, get a set grade level and you will be fine. Get a certain score on the SAT/ACT or what not and you will be fine. Everything is almost definite. Once you leave high school/college there really isn’t any of that for your life unless you create it yourself. Get a job sure, within that job they will have structure. Nothing is telling people to check these 3 boxes and then move out of that job in 3 years and into the next step, as the steps no longer exist and staying in a single job is unlikely to land you where you need to be successful. Loyalty to a woman company doesn’t mean you will get raises or promotions. I wish I would have spent more time creating the maps and goals I want to achieve outside of the structure given to me, and work on achieving those goals and creating timelines they need to be done by. A certificate to move up/diagonal in my field, map it out and when and where you want to throw those 100 resumes out too and hope one of them will come back. Then already be working on other structured steps curated for my life aspirations.
I procrastinate on many of those things, because there are no due dates. It’s go to work, work, make dinner, clean, mow lawn, take care of chickens, blah blah blah to get to the next day week year, but then you never get around to improving yourself because I never set required boxes for me to check.
- Comment on HELP! How do I help educate my son about his body when I know nothing about boys?? 1 month ago:
Yeah it really wasn’t the response I expected to a teaching your child about their body. Not sure what that person has been through, but it did seem random. I expected responses like how to properly clean oneself.
- Comment on HELP! How do I help educate my son about his body when I know nothing about boys?? 1 month ago:
It does happen. Had a woman poke holes in all of the condoms in my nightstand when I was 18. She later admitted she thought I was going to leave her because I was going to a University and she was going to the state college. I’m sure it is rare that such happens, but I wouldn’t fully dismiss it. I was paranoid after that and always went to the bathroom after and filled the condom with water to make sure they hadn’t broke or had a hole in them after sex. It wouldn’t do anything to prevent it at that point, but at least I had the peace of mind I guess that I knew it wasn’t leaking and could get a 9 month head start on planning.

- Comment on What keeps Americans from being mad about the state of their country? 1 month ago:
What do you like most? The rampant corruption, the oligarchs siphoning money directly out of your taxes, the farmers being hurt and some who are yet to know it, or just the growth of racism and sexism brought on by this?
Number of working class people hurt: millions Number of billionaires helped, hundreds Number of idiots who think the trickle down effect works: To many illiterate people. Helping China and Russia daily.
Mothers of our kids and those kids, hurt daily. Enjoy yourself. But everything I said is true and some day maybe you’ll see it. Until then, your ignorance is bliss

Thanks for this comment, this actually made me want to play with one where I had kind of just waved it off before. Any recommendations for one that is very light weight and can be used offline. Wait times are fine but those configurations I’m sure I’ll need to find a reference manual for.
