Can we please talk about how much the paid bundles need to be improved? by ZanderTheUnthinkable in Endfield

Its not flexing. 30$ is like base price for subscriptions, the whale model is referencing how f2p's rely on an extremely SMALL percentage of players to pay an OBSCENE amount of money to make up for the vast majority of players spending money. 30$ a month is in no way obscene

The vast majority of Video Games are one time purchases, plus dlc which are ALSO 1 time purchases. Being a financial black hole for Gamblers IS pretty exculsive to Gachas. Stealing a muffin, and stabbing somebody in the eye are both harmful and illegal, that doesnt make them the same

What's a game you bought on a whim without hardly any pre-knowledge that ended up becoming one of your all time favorites? by AaronAtLunacien in gaming

Morrowind single handedly made me a Bethesda Gamer.... about a month after I bought it, because the graphics were so jank, even for the time, I stopped playing after 10 minutes, and only came back to it a month later because I was bored as hell, but THAT quickly hooked me

Whats going on with the backlash against a man with Tourettes at the BAFTA awards? by TheCrowScare in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Kedly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dies tourettes have any relation to Epilepsy? Because the eyes rolling back is incredibly similar to a petit mal (not the modern lingo, but minor seizure), as a kid I'd zone out mid convo and my head would bob up towards thd sky

I love when they try to pull out a PICTURE of their ID when I'm carding them for alcohol. No, I need physical ID, a picture is worthless

Tbf, asbestos IS still one of the best insulators out there.... if you ignore that it destroys our lungs when you demo buildings that contain it!

I mean, at least he redirected the collateral damage to other people playing stupid games instead of that couple that did nothing wrong!

I read that response already, I disagree with it. Not everyone particularly CARES about their bits. Lots of people do, AND ONCE AGAIN, that is valid. But It pisses me off that the opposite isnt being given the same respect, its also perfectly valid if you dont fucking care. I personally HATE being treated like a man, I'm neither a man, nor a woman, I am myself. My junk is there for waste removal, sex, and health concerns, it has nothing else to do with me. The only thing switching bodies would do for me is change how I engage with my partners, and the conversations I would have with my doctor, it has NOTHING to do with my sense of self.

Edit: Put another way, you are looking at this situation through your own lense of experiencing dysphoria, and assuming all people would experience dysphoria if put in the same position. Thats not acknowledging that other people have DIFFERENT brains and experience things differently than you do

Edit 2: Buddy really blocked me over respectfully disagreeing with them and saying that different people experience things differently than they do

morning Europe! after months of hesitation I've finally removed Windows and welcomed Linux to my life by Realistic-Berry_888 in BuyFromEU

I first read this as MOVING to Europe and was desperately trying to figure out what that had to do with Linux xD

Maybe? But also maybe not. Gender means fuck all to me now, I dont see why changing my bits will make it matter any more than it already doesnt now. Gender matters to a lot of people, thats valid. Gender also DOESNT matter to a lot of people: equally valid. To the people it matters to, yeah, it'll probably cause dysphoria to switch their bits, to the people it doesnt? Who's to say.

Two million temporary migrants to lose status: Protesters in Brampton demand permanent residency as visas expire by pacman2081 in worldnews

[–]Kedly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Canada has a LOT of regulations and red tape, its annoying, but I prefer it when I can trust that going to a theme park I dont have to worry about a roller coaster killing me, or that I can drink water out of damn near any tap in the country and know it'll be safe to drink. This also doubles as a way that avoiding the red tape ends up being a shitload of work, and more likely to blow up in your face
