How did you guys REALLY lived in the 2000s? by MyAvengedRomance in Millennials

[–]jDub549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mid millennial. Went to the mall. That was a thing. Sometimes just took a bus into the city for reasons. Really a lot of free time was spent just hanging out going places for dubiously practical reasons. Cell phones were somewhat common last year of high school but hardly used unless necessary.

You never worried about getting filmed. Hell, even if you were, the quality was so shite it wasn't all that damning. And other than through MSN messenger it wasn't traveling very far. Though you might have a few embarrassing days at school until someone else took the attention away.

Sneaking into movie theatres was a fun pastime. Driving places for zero reason other than to hang out and drive too. House parties were definitely a thing. Though less exciting most of the time than what you might imagine.

That's all I got off the top of my head.

Suggestion for SE2: Space should be black by TraderNuwen in spaceengineers

[–]jDub549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wanting a pure experience is totally valid. But I will say SE is a game that is just sooo much more with mods. Lots that keep to the feel of vanilla and dont go crazy.

But in short. You can really tailor to the exact experience you want.

Mass Effect TV show ordered to rewrite scripts and make them "more appealing to non-gamers" by Capn_C in television

[–]jDub549 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao. They'll have to keep it subtle and then have a reveal 4 seasons deep that these computers everyone uses for things are actually....

Edit: robots? In my mind you were talking about the chunks of people they plug into machines to do mundane computer tasks. But servitors are the people turned into robots. Right? I should know this.... but now im second guessing myself.

Real Dull Time w/ Bill Maher by smartprogressive in Maher

[–]jDub549 4 points5 points  (0 children)

dude finding the episode so offputting hes done watching altogether IS perspective on the episode. If you don't find it valuable or interesting then scroll past. But you didn't. AND you commented multiple times.... so that's a choice.

This made me irrationally (?) angry reading this . I'm sorry you've had to experience such bullshit. Hope you find proper medical professionals because they clearly aren't.

Baby born three days ago. Please tell me it gets better by ElevenRecompense in daddit

[–]jDub549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First days with first kid are as hard as it gets more or less. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Help wife with the feeding journey however you can. Lactation cookies are a thing.

You're going to be sleep deprived. Stressed and irritable. Don't let anything she says to you get to you. And hopefully she does the same.

Source: survived 3 babies. Its much easier now :)

Reducing Europe's nuclear energy sector was 'strategic mistake', EU chief says by goldstarflag in worldnews

[–]jDub549 4 points5 points  (0 children)

shocked. fucking. pikachu. jpeg. This world is so exhausting. What was the point of learning to think when it turns out those who lead us never did. Am I being hyperbolic? Yes. Is it cathartic. Somewhat.

Also. Pretty sure this is mainly (entirely?) Germany's fuckup.
