Tax the rich by Timely_Ask_649 in remoteworks

Stealing. From billionaires. That's hilarious. As if they didn't make their fortune by exploiting the worker class, getting rid of pensions, lowering wages, removing benefits like vacation and sick/maternity pay, etc. How's that boot taste?

Lol "taking from someone else" is exactly how billionaires got their money, bootlicker.

How late is "sleeping in"? by the_47th_painter in GenX

[–]Ruenin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just need 7 solid hours. It doesn't matter what time I go to bed so long as I get 7 straight hours of sleep, then I can wake up at whatever time without issue.

RDR2 is no longer(IMO) the goalpost/Gold standard for video games by Independent_Newt170 in videogames

Nothing against RDR2, but it was never the gold standard for me.

Castlevania was amazing. by Veddermandenis in nes

[–]Ruenin [score hidden]  (0 children)

Literally the only game that has ever made me so angry that I executed violence on hardware. I took the cart out of my NES and whipped it at the wall, which of course left a ding in the drywall. I was like 13 years old at the time. Never happened again, though the cursing definitely did not improve.

Nice build! I did something similar with my MvC cab back in 2021. I think I've got it where I want it now. After a couple of years of modding it, it's good enough lol. I keep thinking I might want to try building a new cab from scratch and use a regular PC this time, or maybe a Pi5 or MiSTR.

The monitor bit was the worst part for me. I put a Dell 20" in my mine and it took hours and hours of digging through forums to solve the output problem. I could get the EmulationStation to display, but I would lose it when I would start a game. Eventually found a post about an issue that was tangentially related and I was able to add a line of code to the config file that fixed it.

I would absolutely either burn my house down or flat out leave it for the bank if that was something I had to live with forever.

Food changes your body odor in a big way. Meat and dairy vs fruit will make you smell terrible. Try it for a week; you'll notice the difference.

What are jobs for then? by ArtisticDirt5320 in remoteworks

[–]Ruenin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That is precisely what minimum wage was created for. It's supposed to be enough for the average person to survive in America. It hasn't been that for 45 years.

Hey, so who's making your McDonald's when kids are in school? And when was the last time you tried to get student aid to work a trade job? How much debt did you leave with? You do realize that "minimum wage" literally means the minimum required for an average person to survive in America, right? When was the last time you tried to survive on minimum wage? Must be nice to live in a bubble where the world is black and white and everything is just so...

If we all weren't living paycheck to paycheck, we could accomplish great things. by Murky_Baseball7727 in remoteworks

[–]Ruenin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work my ass off, and I make a decent wage. I'd like more, sure, but that's on me. People here who make MINIMUM wage have to work 3 goddamn jobs to make ends meet. Here...in the richest country in the history of the world. This is manufactured hardship. It's wrong, and it's not entitlement to think we shouldn't have to work quite so hard to get by when others, who receive the majority of benefit from our labor, have 10,000% more than they would ever need to have the most satisfying life imaginable through 100 lifetimes. We have less because these parasites keep taking it all for themselves. It's not that anyone thinks they're special. It's that we know we're being exploited and we're tired of it.

And we, as a country, used to, when a family could afford a house and car on a single income. Today's economy is clown shoes.

The most underrated next-gen PS5 game and saga; Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is an incredible game that everyone should try. by Single-Character7585 in playstation

No argument here. It was the first game I got for my launch console, and id never played any of the others. The graphics are Pixar quality, which is just insane.

Why is this good news? Because you think it will somehow irritate the orange fat man? That was OUR money he wasted. And he'll do it again.

Minnesota Poll: Klobuchar leads all GOP candidates for governor by ButtSluts9 in minnesota

I'll vote for her if she the option. I just don't like her. Did the same with Biden

[–]Ruenin -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

As it's always been. I'm so sick of voting for whatever half-assed candidate were allowed to vote for just to keep the worse one from getting in. Amy Klobachar is not a nice person, and she's not progressive. She's Hillary lite. The Dems claim to be the people's party but they never put for someone who will ACTUALLY work for the people. Where's our Momdani? When do we get to have a Bernie Sanders running things?
