Why would you send an invitation to the unrelated “rich assholes” at all?
Free shit, duh?
It’s a “dick move” no matter who you send it to.
Nope. Did I not already say rich? By default making those who don’t work for their wealth share it is never a dick move, and that’s before you count the specific bullshit those people pulled against my wife and I to screw us over with their wealth
- Comment on Would you ever have the nerve to do THIS? 14 hours ago:
My wife and I sent something similar to this when we got married during COVID and could only have 19 total people there (including us), but was about meeting us after for the reception
There were 2 sent out that said the gift thing instead, both rich assholes who weren’t related to us that would feel guilty and obligated to send us expensive shit or a decent chunk of change, and it worked so that’s a win for us lol
Doing this to normal people would be an absolute dick move

Tank controls for movement: forward/back with only “turn” right instead of “strafe”
Resident Evil controls
- Comment on Is there another term for crafted, interactive activities besides games/video games? 3 days ago:
called a video game, but I feel like that’s for lack of a better term
Its the perfect term for it, your definition of “game” is likely incomplete:
A game is a structured type of play, usually undertaken for entertainment or fun, and sometimes used as an educational tool
Note that it’s usually for fun, but does not need to be. Flower is a game by that definition
Adding “video” to it is probably the weaker part of the phrase, “digital” is probably more accurate but I doubt people are going to change terminology like that for something so minor

Trying to hold onto my desire to play FFXIV since I have a personal large house and years invested
But honestly the recent expansion having the worst story we’ve seen in a final fantasy ANYTHING alongside multiple staff members pretending Wuk Lamat’s voice acting was acceptable (and the large portion of the player base that will call you a transphobe for that opinion) has me seriously considering if this is the end of the line for me
Tried picking up GW2 but tank controls disgust me

I think it’s also used to refer to revving up one’s motorcycle
Specifically a hog is a Harley (or really any touring bike now), large, slow turning, and they start with H, and yeah you could call racing the engine (the vroom vroom throttle thing) cranking, though that’s more of an action on older motorcycles you’d do to actually start the thing
The term from male masturbation actually comes from crank-start engines

- Comment on I've noticed a lot of UK job applications use the American MM/DD/YYYY date format and some also say "resume" instead of CV. Does that annoy you if you're British? 1 week ago:
Its the ISO format everyone loves but from the time before digital computers needed to sort our dates, so we put the year at the end as it’s generally the least important if something isn’t digital
I get not liking something cuz it’s different, but it amazes me how many people pretend it’s bad

- Comment on Reactor goes brrr 2 weeks ago:
Everyone wants long term storage, but no one wants it near themselves.
Because of fear mongering, it is not dangerous to stick it in a hole and be done with it
The generation who created this early waste is currently dying away and I don’t think the generation after wants to deal with the problem either
Its not a problem
- Comment on Reactor goes brrr 2 weeks ago:
You’re telling me humanity will able to manage nuclear waste for hundreds to thousands of years
You put it in a hole, done. Humanity is capable of that, for sure
It’s not even a solved problem how to communicate danger with signs
We won’t ever know if it is/can be, due to not ever knowing what future societiesoght perceive. We’re doing our best, and can rightfully assume even a fully wiped humanity will learn to stay away from things with our warning symbols on them after a few die from radiation, if that even occurs
You can also pour shit tons of concrete and other stuff around it to make it clear even without signs that something you do not want is in here
- Comment on Reactor goes brrr 2 weeks ago:
So you’re going to store nuclear waste above ground for a couple of millennia?
Literally yes, it’s not just left out in the open air, they’re stored in specialized containers that use inert gas and concrete to block the radiation from getting out. They can also then be buried beneath the ground for extra protection
And thorium reactors might some day become a viable technology. But that is at best decades away.
It is most certainly not decades away at best unless fear mongering managed to slow research more than it already has done, but that’s not an issue with the technology at all
And what about all those old and aging legacy reactors that are being kept running beyond their design lifespan? Surely nothing can go wrong there.
You update them, which is how they’re operating beyond their initial designed lifespan. Current idea in the field is to replace aging uranium reactors with molten thorium as they’re apparently pretty simple to convert over
To quote you on this topic:
you just show how little you understand the subject matter
- Comment on Reactor goes brrr 2 weeks ago:
Nuclear waste. Long term storage of said waste
Solved issue, caskets can be stored above ground and take up very little space, buried if it starts to take up too much surface space
Dependence on raw materials that are only available in a few places
Thorium rather than uranium fuel solves this
Lack of economic viability
Just not true
Lack of clear timelines for development of new technologies
Also not true
Oh, and the old blowy uppy thing, of course.
Seriously not an issue these days, we don’t build them and run them like the Soviet Union did anymore

Being rejected because you’re hurting someone no matter how careful you are is more mentally/emotionally damaging than people know, for both people

These dual requirements feel a little wonky, wow
Can get to the 7 countries minimum with less than half of the other requirement met? Feels like the total signatures number shouldn’t be more than double the smallest possible 7 countries minimums combined

Please god tell me she uses the modern wax stuff that’s significantly less painful. I’ve done the older tape stuff that just rips it all out at the end on my arm and I’m almost certain that shit would cause actual damage down there, but my wife recently had her aesthetician-in-training sister practice the new wax stuff and I was amazed at how gentle that was by comparison
Also, can’t help but imagine everyone who is an aesthetician by trade as Jandelaine from FFXIV:

I dunno, honestly, I clean both daily and yet it’s my navel that gets linty and full of chunks of dead skin far faster, can’t imagine it’s any less sweaty, either
Then again I shave my balls with a straight razor every day like a real man (this is actually the test to prove manhood, sorry anyone who doesn’t, I didn’t make the rules) so maybe I’m picturing less gross balls because of that
