• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I know Mormons can't have alcohol, but couldn't they just dip their tongue in a glass of beer and not move it?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That was the joke about Baptists in my hometown. It was impossible to only invite one since everyone knew everyone’s families.

  Thanks for this blast from the past. RIP Gus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #2932: Driving PSA⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  it sucks that is a common revision in most cities I’ve been in. Let’s just have a highway with 8 lanes and have a tiny turn lane in the middle into a major road without lights at the turn it’ll be great. Not to mention it splitting the city in half and pedestrians who don’t want to walk a mile to the next crossing cross this 8 lane highway splitting the city in half.

  Yes, they are guaranteed the normal minimum wage. Sub minimum wages are doo doo

  States do have their own minimums. Washington State for example, is tied to something(I don’t have what it attached to rn) and it’s at $16.28. Fun fact, some states even have a tip wage at $2.15 in which it’s usually put on the customers goodwill to make their wages match the minimum in that state which is usually the federal minimum wage.

  Which side has the better tax benefits?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What will happen to large companies once poor people have no more money to use?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Currency will still be used. Unless everyone starts to absolutely own nothing, there will be bartering with something other than a fancy note with a promise of value from your local government. For example, food has been a staple currency for as long as agriculture has been a thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nightmares are just your brain doing combat readiness drills⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I am so ready for that giant snake that bursts out of a wall of my childhood home while I am wearing a sharp looking suit. Been running that drill since the age of 7.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Sacred Hole⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I miss doing things for the sake of just doing them. I don’t have enough of that in my life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube is increasing Premium prices in multiple countries, right after an ad-blocker crackdown | You either pay rightfully for the video content you consume, or you live with the ads.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have thought about this but haven’t seen anything about whether or not they will regulate the ads better. I enjoy not having obnoxious, repetitive ads. I also enjoy having no ads and directly supporting the creator of the media I like.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube intensifies fight against ad blockers showing pop-ups, and users are frustrated | Blocking ad-block users⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You should see his most recent video about a video aggregator app.

  It does feel like astroturf.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unity’s new “per-install” pricing enrages the game development community⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They guess.

  We leverage our own proprietary data model and will provide estimates of the number of times the runtime is distributed for a given project – this estimate will cover an invoice for all platforms.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do younger people go home earlier now? Or go out less? Is it since COVID?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I would say from personal experience it’s nice to have an evening to myself after events. I’ve stayed out late playing shows at bars in my early 20s while working a full time job and it is a godsend to have time that isn’t for sleeping to spend my own way. Again not everyone yearns for that introversion time.
