  I too immediately thought of DARE.

  There are a ton of games playable on deck.

  She fucks other dudes and talks about it on TV. She’s his Dom, and an unhealthy one.

  I stopped eating apples and bananas and pears for some reason, until I had a kid and cut them up for him all the time. I’ve now rediscovered how great pears are.

  Or embrace savory cereal and put cheese, sour cream and hot sauce into oatmeal. Trust me.

  How has valve been overcharging when devs and publishers set the prices on steam?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve will face that £656m UK lawsuit accusing them of overcharging Steam customers, as tribunal rules it can go ahead⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I’m at a loss for why valv is at fault here. The dev sets the price of the game. If the game is only available on steam, well that’s the devs choice too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Majority of CEOs report zero payoff from AI splurge⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You are correct. The issue is one of projection. CEOs and MBAs think AI is amazing and can replace everyone because it can replace them. They are the ones replaceable. So they think AI is so amazing and they should use it to replace everyone else.

  Folks doing actual work with meaningful output absolutely can and should use AI as a force multipyer where applicable, but they know they’re meaningful work can’t be fully replaced.

  So that’s what they meant by techno feudalism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can still smell them⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Usually what would happen is the residue builds up on the parts that feed the tape up so it would stick, and lose index. The hammer would land between caps because the tape wasn’t advanced the distance it needed to be.

  If you clean all that off so the tape consistently advanced the correct amount you wouldn’t have issues.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can still smell them⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wasn’t that into noir when I was a child.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can still smell them⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The paper cap guns just need to be maintained. You have to clean out the residue that builds up or the paper won’t cycle smoothly through it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Electric motorcycles with solid-state batteries seem to be coming soon.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I watched that exact video. I still don’t think it’s ever more efficient to have a hubless wheel vs a good central bearing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Electric motorcycles with solid-state batteries seem to be coming soon.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well thanks for correcting me, that is wild. I can’t imagine it’s actually pragmatic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Electric motorcycles with solid-state batteries seem to be coming soon.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The rear wheel of the bike in the picture tells me all of this is completely fantasy.

  We’re Gundams.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I dated a Muslim girl. In college. We were both 22 and she still had to keep it a secret. Her dad called her every night at 8pm to make sure she did her work and was getting ready for bed. I often had to overhear that right before we fucked.

  Don’t be a baby about it. If you want to be with her, be in understanding and do what it takes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone have any experience with eabud batteries?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I had these and had the same battery problem. I ordered some replacement batteries and replaced the one that was having issues. They were great again for a while. Then the other one started having issues. Then I accidentally damaged the ribbon cable while taking that one apart. Now they’re junk. I’m still pissed about it. It would have been so easy for them to make replacing the batteries easy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  No. Ostracizing just seems soo much more harmful. It seems kinda backwards to me. What’s an acceptable response and what’s not. That’s all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  No, I’m asking why can’t I just punch a guy who deserves it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Right! Thank you, this is what I’m looking for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  To clarify: I don’t have an issue. I have a coworker I’d like to punch. The alternative strategies I’m taking because I can’t punch him are leaving me feeling dirty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  My follow-up thought. Would so many people not rather be hit once than ostracized forever from a group?

  Isn’t a punch or a slap or a headlock better any social or mental punishment? It becomes almost therapeutic for both parties.

  Oh please, show me the officer that arrests the workplace bully.
