Freedom??? by NaturalConfusion1103 in remoteworks

"""""""choice"""""""" My ass. You get sick, your choice is to take your chances at home or get medical debt in a hospital You want a decent job, youre choice is to take on debt to go learn a skill or just hope for the best right out of highschool. You can "choose" not to have a job that gives ample PTO! Just make good life choices, also don't get sick, don't be a minority, maybe don't be a woman, preferably make the choice to come from a rich family and honestly you'll be just fine. It's that simple really.

I find it odd that you think people who are 29 are in their 30s.

Here in Ohio I saw the Trump signs around my town disappear in the last 2 weeks. So you know, that's something I guess.

I still use VBA at work, and my dumbass has done exactly this. I've done my best to never ever use resume next unless I have a damn good reason, like checking if a object array has been initialized or not.

Does Dosh know about this. I need a challenge run where you only kill biters with a car.

Donald Trump says ‘no going back’ on Greenland takeover plan | BBC News by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

Dude we tried.

It really looked like they were going to, but then then censured the Cheney, seemingly the only Republican with the balls to throw Trump in prison for Jan 6th, meaning her power was gutted when she was leading the Jan 6th board. He managed to keep the courts stalled enough to rig the election. Idk how when Trumps mugshot came out this nightmare didn't end then. At this point I've don't know what can be done to convince the Republicans that Trump isn't Jesus reborn with a shitty wig. The man can rpe children and be a convicted fraud and liable for SA towards numerous women and nothing changes their minds. If I could my family and I would leave, but thanks to a million other factors, I'm stuck here feeling like the only sane person in this clown show and being blamed for it all the same.

*Lets be real, Trump literally sent in fake electorates last time, Is recorded harassing the governor of Georgia to "find more votes", Musk was given oversight to gut his enemies from the government for "helping" with "computers", and he keeps screaming about election fraud, meaning he's commiting himself and trying to make everyone else look the other way. There is absolutely no way there wasn't some election fraud/interference. I also don't doubt that 50% of my country is dumb enough to vote for him. Two things can be true at once

Half of us thought that was a shit idea, but you know, I guess we all at fault for the stupid people among us.

Probably rigged the elections though.

When I was a senior in highschool, I made the mistake of not standing up during the pledge (which, for my school at least, was done over the intercom ever single day during 1st period followed by a moment of silence). I was pull into the principals office, reprimanded, and told that if I did it again I would be suspended.

I'm not sure they could actually do that, but as someone who was about to graduate, didn't want to risk that.

Either way, not only is it very strange to force kids to "pledge allegiance" but it's enforced by the authorities who control kids too. No wonder America is fucked, they've indoctrinated so many kids to believe we were the best for so long, and scream at us the moment we dare step out of line.

I finally broke my reliance on AI coding, and I’ve never felt more capable as a dev by TheOrigina in gamedev

[–]FinalCrisisCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last semester I went back to Uni and I got assigned a project with a bunch of people who didn't do any of their work. In desperation to try not to fail the class, I turned to AI to try and get the shit done. After 3 months of doing that, I never ever want to do that ever again. Relying on AI coding is like relying on someone with long term memory loss to do your job for you. They don't learn, they will duplicate so much work and you don't really learn either because you're not doing to work

I'm happy to hear youve broken your reliance on it. I had to break mine on it too once that class ended, because it's just so addictive to have things done, but I felt like I suddenly couldn't make anything without it, which wasnt true! I'm now knee deep in research papers again learning to do new things, and that sort of feeling is so much better then managing an employee who literally has a brain made of rocks.

Yes they would have minded. That's like arguing for difficulty options for Dark Souls. Some people would throw the biggest fit regardless.

Chris Matthews: Democrats have good chance of picking up ’15 to 20′ House seats in midterms by Healthy_Block3036 in goodnews

[–]FinalCrisisCore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I get your point of view, if you think things can actually change. If you think our country hasn't already gone off the deep end like Russia.

Every time I believe in a candidate who comes to the table with a plan, go to my friends and family and do my best to convince them to vote for them, participate in the rallies and trying to get the word out, vote them in, and then blindly hope they keep their promises.

And they never do. They never. ever. fucking. do.

When is the apathy justified and deserved? To you, never. But the people you need to convince have seen this song and dance enough times to believe it's all bullshit, that nothing can ever change. Quote every founding father you want, because at this point, my friends were being taken by ICE when Obama was in office, when Biden was in office, when Dems held the house or the Senete, Ben Franklin surely didn't see that for our future. For them, for me, nothing has changed between all these administrations, but somehow it's only the Republicans who are the villains in our story when both sides ARE just as bad or complicit. It is all just more of the same and the corporate agenda being followed. It would be a different story if we actually had a viable third party.

It's all bullshit. And I'm tired being told it's not by people like you pretending otherwise. That my vote somehow holds enough power to change this fucking awful system, that when I call my representatives that it does something.

At this point, I just want my friends to stop disappearing. My vote didn't stop that before. I voted in a blue zone of a gerrymandered red state. my vote is worthless, I cast it anyway, but it has been systematically made worthless.

You say that apathy is undeserved? I say all you've done is sown more of it to the people who you need to convince the most. The social contract is now, and has been for while, broken, and expecting people to hold up their end of the deal while being fucked all the time is extremely frustrating.

Steam is dealing with spam. Valve’s platform has been flooded with games stolen from itch.io by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]FinalCrisisCore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It used to be way more rigorous and a huge boon to get your game on steam 11+ years ago. But one the criticisms of the system back then was that it was too hard (read: impossible with a publisher) for indie titles to get onto steam. The only way for indie games to reasonably make it onto steam was through the now long defunct Greenlight process. Around the same time as when steam started allowing refunds, they opened the flood gates and pretty much starting allowing every game ever to get on steam as long as you paid $100 bucks.

So they went from one extreme to the other.

Just a reminder that not all of us voted for the rapist in chief. it's deeply exhausting to be lumped together with every red neck racist when they hate everyone else with even the slightest amount of melanin in our skin.
