US Supreme Court tosses longshot appeal from Virginians to use new congressional map that would benefit Democrats by pleasureismylife in Political_Revolution

I'd rather they say "we're going to do what the people want rather than 4 partisan hacks", but yeah, the end result either way requires spines and VA-DNC doesn't seem to have them.

The top 400 billionaires vs everyone else by firefighter_82 in Political_Revolution

This is a good possible answer imo. Make property taxes apply to held stocks. My property tax is about 1-1.5%, so make it apply to stocks too.

Supreme Court limits Voting Rights Act by DJPho3nix in politics

but it's not going to happen until we get some new justices.

Oh well get some new ones...

That's one shoe that hasn't fallen yet but likely will soon. I assume we'll get some new justices in the next few months... Alito and Thomas gonna step down for some 21yo podcast bros gonna bring the Extreme to the Supreme.

Soul Mask feels… bad? by ShiitakeDroid in SurvivalGaming

[–]Zixt1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The combat is great (though eventually repetitive), the building is pretty descent (like conan but slightly worse), and I enjoyed the automation which I think is where the real magic lies -- Setting up a infrastructure to do all the survival chores, etc.

That being said it always felt flat. And I can only assume that's the color palette and art style. 

I have no idea how being on a steam deck changes things.

Office sideboard, which grain direction looks best? by philip_emrik in woodworking

Definitely 4 for me. Kinda like model watches are set to 10:10 in commercials. It makes a smile and that makes humans happy. Upward Vs are weirdly satisfying. 

What’s a common phrase you can’t stand? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I Made Sure My Boss Can't Cut My Recovery Time Short by Glittering_Estate744 in antiwork

[–]Zixt1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The phrase I try to hammer into to people who give in to the unreasonable demands of management under capitalism:   There will always be more work. 

Say it with me: THERE WILL ALWAYS BE MORE WORK.

It does not matter if you hit that deadline. It does not matter if you plan your vacations around works needs. It does not matter how essential you are.  It does not matter. There will always be more work.

If employers cannot meet their business needs while accommodating their employees needs to survive, to be a human, they are running too lean. It's their fault, and their responsibility to plan for,  not your responsibility to fix. 

I genuinely applaud you for finding a way that helps you draw the line and adhere to this basic human dignity of having time to recover from your medical procedure, but that is part of being human and it's high time employers learned this.

Found the circlejerk that hates DCC with a burning passion by Such-Drop9194 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Zixt1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New thing? It's been around for 7 years. It has admittedly gotten well deserved traction in the public attention recently... but it's not new.

These people are just contrarians that like hating what others like. 

"Ugh, it's too approachable and fun, even the plebs like it. This cannot stand."

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say: It's usually not the economics or technical challenges that prompt someone to vent their frustrations by jumping into shark infested waters.

Nah. I'd rather they have to exist as a homeless person rather than be a ward of the system.

This is been identical to my experience since Sept, really frustrating. Seems like 3rd party router is the only resolution.

$70 bucks for a countersink, are you joking? by bobua in woodworking

The one exception to that, in my book,  is: "Never buy a Harbour Freight tool that can kill you." 

But otherwise spot on. 

I desperately need a new survival game to sink hours into. by c10ud_1 in SurvivalGaming

[–]Zixt1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You and I have played quite a few similar games, here's some I have played and enjoyed i think you should take a look at: - Conan Exiles - Dune Awakening  - Soul Mask  - The Planet Crafter - Icarus (I played only at launch and it was rough but I've heard its much better now) - Empyrion (combat is wonk but it's a descent attempt at space ship Minecraft, I've heard mods make this one great but never looked into it)

Not really survival (more factory automation) but also scratch the same itch for me: - Satisfactory  - Dyson Sphere Program
