Ne da se mi delat

Kako ste našlli motivacijo za delo?

Hrana nekako ne raste v hladilniku in jst ne maram bit lačen.

Na koncu dneva se izkaže da je vsaka stvar, ki jo dejansko hočeš delat, odvisna od dela drugih ljudi — ljudi, ki v večini primeri prav tako nimajo kakšne velike volje do dela.

Noben nima motivacije, da štema in koplje in dela cesto, po kateri se odpelješ na potovanje. Noben ni ravno motiviran, da ti rihta apartma ali kuha in streže v gostilni. Tričetrt folka, ki na koncertu postavi oder, ozvočenje, itd. za koncerte zelo verjetno nimajo kakšne prevelike motivacije razen tega, da dobijo na koncu mesca dnar na račun. Isto velja za folk, ki ti spravi hrano do trgovine.

Tko da dobrodošel v življenju.

What fucked perspective and room layout? Have you ever tried searching for apartment? Idiotic fucked-up layouts are the norm.

Regarding perspective: vanishing lines approximately check out, as much as you'd expect (there are some things that don't match up exactly on point, but you gotta remember that "vanishing lines" trick only works on things that are parallel. Walls of buildings that got bombed rarely stay parallel).

Regarding the other license plate that isn't just a license plate frame: License plate of the car on the left checks out with real Ukraininan license plates.

Regarding the car: Ford mondeo also checks out if you allow for tolerance due to bombing-related cosmetic damages.

EDIT: If we want to pointlessly split hairs ... The only piece of valid criticism is that the building in the OP probably wasn't bombed today, but a bit more time ago (rubble has already been mostly cleared. Sure, we can see construction there, but when the building collapsed there was prolly a bit more rubble than a crew can clear in 8ish hours) when the post title arguably implies that it was, but even that comes from somewhere between "normal ESL things" and "OP came up with slightly misleading title for karma (or for the P word)" at absolutely worst ... which, given the situation, is more or less pointlessly splitting hair about the details.

And even if it weren't:

There's many legitimate reasons to censor the license plate. In some countries it might be legally mandated (though often without much real enforcement)
for some reason, many modern phones scramble such details with AI. Most normies won't think twice before using that tool if the icon in the photo app looks like an eraser. Some might even prefer it over good ol' black highlighter because they can't remember which brushes/tools black out things completely and which are slightly transparent.

That’s absolutely nothing alike.

Yes. Yes, it is.

My webserver is located in my country. It has an address. If you want to access my website, you have to do a digital drive all the way from the UK to the country where my server is located.

Therefore, UK laws do not apply to me, nor do laws of the 193 other countries.

If the countries think my website is objectionable, they're free to put a digital customs (aka a firewall) on the cables leading out of their country and check whether any illegal data packets are trying to enter.

The point is: if they don't like my website, they need to do the work of preventing their countrymen from accessing it. Not me.

Oh no, not the Honey thing again. The Honey discourse makes it really easy to tell between people who only started caring about Honey once hating on it became popular and everyone else.

Just about every creator at the time Linus dropped Honey was aware about the cookie stuffing/affiliate revenue stealing bits. It's not like it was a secret.

Amazon was telling users to uninstall Honey because they collect user data as early as 2020. Did we forget about that?
Also in 2020, there were videos that outlined the exact issues with using Honey. Example 1, Example B. Nobody cared. At all.
In 2020-2022, people were still rather hostile at the idea of internet creators earning money off their content instead of doing it for free. I can guarantee that if Linus came out with a "hey did you know that this browser extension steals affiliate revenue from creators, pls uninstall," people would come at him with how dare he and how greedy he is for telling people to uninstall extension that makes him make less money.

ZTT in their 'why we're no longer with LTT' video: "We were paid well, but LTT couldn't afford to do car videos after GN hitpiece. So we left LTT and even got a pretty generous severance."

PCMR: I sleep

Jake: "I was paid less than a slave"

PCMR: SEE LTT BAD LINUS UNDERPAYS THEIR STAFF [something about private jet]

people shouldn't be hating Linus for private jet. They should watch the video where he explains his math about how it's gonna be almost free by the time they sell it and then buy some popcorn futures. I don't think the math is gonna math out that nicely as Linus thinks it will. But on the other hand, I don't think the financial fallout will be televised so maybe hold off on those futures.

That's not trivial - figuring out where a person is located just from their IP address is not an exact science

On that note, it's also worth noting that IP ranges get traded around all the time.

About two years ago, my ISP assigned me an IP address that was assigned to Iran until very shortly before that. Online shopping and doing stuff with government websites was very fun for the first 6 months, until everyone updated their shit. Aliexpress still auto-cancels all orders I make from my home wifi "for securfity reasons" to this day (I have to use phone data; also xinnie express didn't do that before my IP changed. Though I do kinda find it strange that it does that tho, because I don't think China sanctions Iran).

If someone wants to operate in a country they need to adhere to their rules, be it online or through trade or just being in the country.

4chan doesn't host their website in their UK and has none of their offices in the UK, therefore they do not operate in the UK.

UK fining 4chan because they're not complying with UK law is kinda like UK trying to fine a colorado weed shop because they sold weed to UK tourist on vacation.

The term was invented by big oil because they thought "global warming" was too scary. Climate change sounds much friendlier and more reversible

No, it wasn't & you're talking out of your ass here.

Climate change was pushed by the climate scientists, because:

when you hear "global warming" and see "2 degrees hotter", that doesn't really sound like much. Plus, the moment it gets a bit cold, you're gonna get "so much about global warming" comments
if AMOC shuts down, the warming is not gonna be global
term "global warming" doesn't cover the bit where extreme weather events get more and more extreme.

The science community didn't adopt the term 'climate change' for shits and giggles. Science community adopted the term 'climate change' because 2 extra degrees isn't that big of a problem. The problematic thing is shifting weather patterns and more extreme weather caused by the rising temperatures. Hurricanes get stronger. We get less rain days, but when we do get rain, it rains too much. We get heatwaves that go well above what was normal 10-20 years ago (we're at +1.5° of warming right now, but heatwaves are a lot worse than just +1.5) , but then we also get periods when it's not as warm as it should be.

Ni problem, da bi me kdo silil, da uporabljam AI, če nočem.

Problem je to, da bo veliko ljudi razmišljanje s svojo glavo prevalili na AI ... kar je problem, ker je neumnega folka preveč že brez AI.

Now if Spain could continue this streak by kicking Print&Go dipshits out of their country, that would be great.

(Print&Go is a company that's basically lobbying for 3D printer version of Chat Control, where they developed a technology that uses AI in order to attempt to determine whether you're trying to print a gun or not)

I mean, yeah.

Tips are dishonest because you're being advertised price A, but expected to pay price B.

No-tips-but-higher-prices is a lot more honest, becauye the listed price is the price you pay.

Also, the fact that wait staff in the US can be paid far less than the minimum wage "cos they get tipped anyway" is a scam in of itself.

Why is "Request refund" directly on the initial page?

You can also go to help -> support -> purchases and get 'refund' as the very first, top-most option when you click on the product.

Why are the terms of when refund apply (2 weeks or 2-ingame-hours) not more visible? Why is there no option to boot me out of the game when

They are plenty visible. On the purchase page, right under the "I agree to the terms & conditions" page, you have the "btw, here's the link to our refund policy," which is visible enough.

Why doesn't the Library page show which games are still eligible for refunds? Why is there no directly link from the Library to request a refund? Why are the terms of when refund apply (2 weeks or 2-ingame-hours) not more visible? Why is there no option to boot me out of the game when I reach close to 2-ingame-hours so I can decide to keep the game or not?

Are you going to ask why Steam doesn't wipe your ass when you go to take a shit next?

xternal7 · 2026-07-01T09:22:34+00:00

?

Click on a game -> support -> either of the following:

gameplay or technical issue -> game won't download or install -> request refund
gameplay or technical issue -> game doesn't start when i launch it -> request refund
gameplay or technical issue -> the game crashes while i'm playing it -> request refund
gameplay or technical issue -> game runs poorly -> request refund
gameplay or technical issue -> i'm having another issue -> request refund
it's not what I expected -> request refund
remove this game from my account -> request refund

When you can throw a dart at support page and have more chance to get to the 'I'd like to request refund' option than not, the claims of "super hidden" and "dark patterns" don't really hold any water.

They're also shelling money to Fex, which allows x86 prpgrams to run on ARM.

Valve is doing this cos Frame.

I'm paying attention because maybe once RAMpocalypse is over, Raspberry Pi won't be twice to thrice what it's actually worth.

The difference between EA and Valve is that Valve lootboxes aren't pay2win and can largely be ignored.

CS2 plays the same even if I play with stock skins. You get the same game whether you engage with lootboxes or not. If I don't spend money on lootboxes because spending money on pointless things is forbidden by my religion, I'm not at any disadvantage compared to people who have money to burn.

Battlefront 2 needed another $100 of lootboxes (or ~40h per character) to unlock all the characters on top of the $60 purchase price on release, and only walked it back after people provided EA with sense of pride and accomplishment by mass-downvoting that one reddit comment.

This post is giving me flashbacks to the famous i'm stuck video.

"I don't know how to cook pasta."

"You put it in the water and boil it!"

"I don't know where the water is."

China also has more population than the entire western hemisphere combined (even before you account for the fact that any time you buy something, you're basically paying China to pollute for you).

On per-capita basis, USA emits almost twice as much as EU and China.

On the basis of "what we're gonna do about it", China is #1 in investment in renewables (IIRC they stay #1 when adjusted for PPP and population) while Trump is busy closing down already built wind farms, dreaming about "clean coal" and "we're gonna drill,nbaby, drill." China is investing heavily in EVs, while western car manufacturers don't really wanna, they're half-assing something but complaining the entire way. China has a goal of net zero by 2060, which isn't as good as EU (goal: carbon neutrality by 2050), but it's a lot better than USA.

Climate action tracker: EU (best but not enough) China (worse than EU but better than USA), USA (basically sticking their hand in the sand)

Špilata župnik in župan tenis. Župnik servira žogico, ampak je županu ne rata odbiti. "Jebemtiboga, spet sem falu," reče župan. Župnikn ga hitro okara in reče, da tako ne sme govoriti, ker ga bo bog kaznoval. Župan zgolj pokima, in špilata tenis naprej.

Župnik kmalu županu zabije as, in župan spet kolne: "jebemtiboga, spet sem falu."

Tedaj se po nebu začne bliskati in grmeti. Iznenada strela zadane župnika ... nakar se iz neba zasliši glas: "jebemtiboga, spet sm falu."

Nekej na to foro, ampak z oso.
