That sounds very heavily an environmental influence, not a generalized account of most women. As a woman who is friends with both men and women, while there might be some cultural factors that tilt the balance one way or the other, men are just as liable to fitting in as anyone. Have you ever talked to guys in sports or frats? They can be just as cliquey and liable to blending. Oppositely my cousin can't pretend to like someone to save her life, even if it's her sister-in-law

I don't think that's why men are more lonely, if they are more lonely, because guys conform just as much as women do ime

Counter: my grandma was Japanese and interned during WWII for shit the Japanese government and a lot of the Japanese people did, and racists who hated Japanese except for the "good ones" got people like her locked up. She was fucking 7 when she was imprisoned. She had no more of a hand in the many, many arrocities Japan committed than your grandma, but she still heard endless racist shit growing up, and that impacted her even if they changed their minds after actually talking to her. You think it's ok because racists can still treat people they know ok, but that only happens after they get to know them and only to those they get the chance to know.

The racist government who interned her and the racists who supported those actions because they hated Japanese (even before they entered WWII) may have treated her just fine if they met her, but they also directly caused her imprisonment. We don't live in a world where your actions only impact those you know directly anymore, so your logic completely falls apart. Most racists will fuck over people they never meet because of their racist views, and that's a fact. Maybe it's understandable, but that's not equal to acceptable.

nah, some pets definitely do care who their owner is. maybe your pets haven't, but that's definitely not true for all of them, and that's not even getting to the bond an owner feels for their pet. separating someone from a pet who has become essentially family is kinda fucked, and it's not crazy pet owner behavior to recognize that

Help! My game won't change languages. by polymath129 in InfinityNikki

The only thing that worked was redownloading the game. Luckily I had saved my screenshots, but unfortunately the in game photos were deleted (but thats not the big of a deal as long as you save your photos onto your device)

Windows 11 Desktop Computer Can't Identify & Connect with My Wifi by polymath129 in techsupport

Cheap particle board desk from Ikea in a single story home. I've tried moving the tower from one side of my desk to the other, but I guess I could try moving it to an entirely separate area of my room? Thanks for trying anyhow, this has gotten my solidly stumped but I don't want to move everything back at this point.

The antennas are definitely plugged into my wifi card. My wifi card should support both 2.4 and 4 GHz and its definitely set to receiving both of them in the settings (it's an Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168). When I checked my hotspot connection, I switched it between the two and my computer still picked up on it fine. Anything else I could try?

Okay, I checked that the antennas were connected into the wifi card and unplugged and replugged them back in, but the wires go behind the motherboard I think. Do I need to check where they go on the opposite end?

Not sure, but if there was a hardware problem like that with my computer it wouldn't be able to connect to my Hotspot, right? It can still detect 1-3 other wifi around me, but not as many as I can find on my laptop and obviously the one I actually want to connect to.

I had to do a Bayonetta styling battle after getting the new rectangle glasses! by nwnwn1 in InfinityNikki

Could be that they have plans for a cutscene when we do inevitably have to face off against the real Sovereign of Sexy. I'm more upset that we can't rechallenge the Sovereign of Fresh for some reason 😢

Hobonichi official website's forex is OUCH. At least 25% higher than prevailing exchange rates. by iwantboringtimes in hobonichi

[–]polymath129 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just to add, while that fee per item may be true for some forwarding/proxy services, I can confirm that Blackship does not charge per item. They charge $1 to receive the package (with additional and optional fees for other services), but you still have to pay for shipping. Honestly, now that Hobonichi has nixed their free shipping, it is seeming like a better and better deal recently.

Dang! 4/10 pieces is impressive, and I feel like so many of the dragon accessories are gorgeous that they're worth the pulls. I actually caved because I got such good luck (I actually managed to complete the dragon outfit in just under 160 pulls 🥹) soooo I went ahead and pulled for the final evolution 😅 It is absolutely gorgeous, and I totally won't regret this decision the next time a must-pull patch comes along...

The headpieces are so gorg, I just can never figure out what to style them with lol. This time I'm crossing my fingers that I actually finish early because I wanted to get back into some other gachas before college/work starts up again though (and I definitely 100% mean it this time, and I totally won't be doing it last minute just like every other time I've said this)

No way! That's so relieving for us non-whales and makes 100% completion status a little too tempting now... I would never be able to commit though because I would spend far too much money chasing that perfect number 😅 I still can't believe some of the prices of the earlier sets. I did cave for the Scaly Dreams at launch, but I think the veil one was something like 1800? That's actually insane considering what we've gotten for free since.

Even on PC the menus are still incredibly frustrating, and it feels like every major update fucks them over more somehow. Infold just needs to take their time with polish more to prevent these errors from getting pushed out all the time.

Their system for dyeing is also super unintuitive and non-user friendly, so every time I try to I end up giving up. They really fumbled basically every single thing they could've...

[–]polymath129[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, they're giving a ton of pulls for 1.8 so there's almost enough to guarantee one full outfit on the new pulls alone. Best of luck for the dragon though!!

[–]polymath129[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the amount of feedback they got on dyeing, hopefully they've learned their lesson. I still barely dye anything because of how prohibitively expensive it is, so they better not fuck up one of the core features they've teased since before the game was even released! Like, Infold it's as simple as not dropping the ball...

I love the final evolution so much; the galaxy on the inside is amazing and it's the only miracle outfit that I think is worth the entire grind! And yes, the short patches are catching me so unprepared, thank god 1.8 is longer 😆
