• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are most people who avoid turn signals do it to feel more normal? (Imitating their parents, avoiding perceived stupidity of using turn signals when it seems useless, etc)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Since when has using turn signals been the “normal”?

  For the last 20 years, 90% of the drivers are so lazy that they can’t be bothered to lift their finger a half inch even if it means preventing an accident or death…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WTF is a rural town in the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks,

  After thinking about it a bit, towns with a large corporate presence, like a major grocery store etc., but no Walmart, would fall somewhere in between rural and urban. Low or no corporate presence is almost always a rural town.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WTF is a rural town in the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It means the town doesn’t have a Walmart

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Baldur's Gate 3 dev calls Randy Pitchford's $80 Borderlands 4 comments "gross" because it implies the FPS is more important than "making it day to day"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I honestly can’t remember the last time I paid full price for a game. Between free amazon prime games, epic games, gog, and steam demos/freebies: I hardly have time to invest in new games.

  I used to buy Madden/NBA2k every year up until 2008 or so, now I grab one every five years at $10. Includes all the bugs from the previous version.

  I have 1000s of games now and don’t have any time to play them. BG3 is the one game I’m considering spending $40 for.

  I was trying to set up win 11 laptop for my mom and ran into S mode, that took like an hour to walk my elderly mom through the steps to disable it so I could remote in. Finally gave up and grab a MS approved remote desktop app to remote in a disable the S mode, its s for Shit. Of course the other remote desktop app crashed. Sorry family, no more windows PCs for you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if you quit a job you didn't like or was toxic, didn't the financial hit scare you?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Currently at a job where I haven’t slept in 4 days because I am stressed out about quitting. There are too many safety violations and I keep getting in trouble for things completely out of my control. Maybe OSHA will supplement my income for a few months
