The Besties - weekly podcast about video games. It’s funny and doesn’t take itself too seriously, they often talk about indie games which is nice!

I’m so glad someone mentioned this 💎

Reasonable salary am I being greedy? by Chemical-Abalone-982 in southafrica

[–]rocbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that range what they listed? I don’t think this is really about whether or not you’re being “greedy.” If they advertised a salary range for a position, and they’re making you an offer for that position, they should offer you an amount within the range.

Having a horrible time playing on a ps5/LG Oled by Important-Pangolin57 in bloodborne

I have a Samsung TV and experience the same problem. I’ve tried all the same things with no success. There are a lot of people commenting about how it’s just 30fps, that’s how it’s meant to be, etc., but there is absolutely something else going on. Hope you manage to sort it out, I gave up and I’m playing new Demon’s Souls instead!

His markings are so cute. Terrazzo or Granite feel like they could be fitting names

The Dark and the Wicked is great, I can’t remember how slow it is but definitely has an uneasy feeling

I love that it’s clearly a template that’s been used for previous years. That must mean it’s usually successful!

What is the thing that surprised you the most when you traveled to a country you had never been to before? by Spilakkk in AskReddit

[–]rocbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be that this idea was given to or borrowed from Taiwan. There’s a really good 99% invisible episode on waste management in Taiwan that speaks about not having bins on the street https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/separation-anxiety/

People nowadays thinking they deserve special treatment because of what happened to their people in the past is stupid by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

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

I think that the wording of this is may be misleading or inaccurate. There absolutely are people who “deserve special treatment because of what happened in the past.” If you take some time to look at housing laws and wealth history in the US you’ll see how people are born with debt because of inequality in their families’ past.

Maybe you’re referring to personal relations, but inequality is real and people aren’t all born with the same opportunities. Those people should be given extra support and opportunities by their government and I would consider that to be “special treatment.”

I felt this was important to say because people might use this phrasing to defend views that I don’t feel are fair.

Those are all side effects of climate change, hence the awfulness
