  We have one particular brand here that does “Milk, ice cream & more” that has their milk in glass bottles. It’s this ridiculous super premium thick milk, I get some of the chocolate sometimes.

  I think it’s about $6per (half gallon/4pint) which is considerably more than average but it’s like drinking chocolate ice cream.

  I get what you’re saying but unfortunately $1M isn’t even that much money these days. Once you figure in a house, any retirement plans, vehicles, college funds, etc. A lot of people are “millionaires” on paper but still gotta make their commute every day and stick to their budgets. The reality is even with a million dollars, if you make a misstep or stop chasing you’ll end up in medical debt or homeless pretty quickly. Shit is brutal out here and capitalism doesn’t give a fuck about us.

  But I don’t like introducing myself to the neighbors even if I’m only worth $10, it’s just awkward.

  Same, came over during the first API fuckery wave and haven’t gone back at all. I might not have much but I have principles, fuck em.

  I love it. They have more than they’ll ever need but can’t help but continue to gorge themselves. Half of them probably miss out on sleep or family or other healthy activities in their pursuit of more wealth. Financial obesity is a fantastic term that paints a very accurate picture.

  Sounds like you spend a lot of time hanging out with men. Nothing straighter than some men spending quality time together.

  I’m kind of on the same page as you, as a concept it’s really cool but all the hype and techbros around it are a huge turn off.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What actions are you referring to? I appreciate Steams contributions to the Linux ecosystem but that’s about it, and even that is completely self serving. Locking everything on their platform behind DRM? Taking a 30% cut of everything sold after monopolizing the PC gaming market?

  He’s a big proponent of microtransactions and was one of the first to introduce lootcrate mechanics for skins. Skins that you can buy/sell with real cash off-site. There’s a billion dollar online casino ecosystem where you use skins as chips to play games that’s basically targeted at kids. Valve is completely aware of it and it breaks their ToS but they profit greatly so they look the other way and continue to push shitty scratch off ticket loot boxes to kids. There really is no such thing as an ethical billionaire.

  Unless you know about some great philanthropic work he’s doing?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I understand and don’t necessarily disagree with any of that but let’s not pretend GabeN is anything other than another greedy billionaire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And they purposely target kids with addictive loot crate mechanics and look the otherway while loot/skins are sold on 3rd party sites.

  Maybe GabeN really needs a 7th yacht but maybe he’s just a greedy bastard who wants all the money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When it hits you....⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone who was an adult when it came out but didn’t see it until years later.

  It’s an adequate live-action adaptation of a classic piece of animation. With Christmas coming up you should probably go ahead and give it a watch, if for no other reason than to say you did.

  I prefer Jims acting and the roles he’s chosen, but Adam seems like he’s probably a nicer person.

  I love seeing the explosion of interest in pawpaws over the last decade. They’re very good, a bit of a cross between mango and a banana. I’ve actually seen them at a local fsrmers market this season, I was pretty surprised.

  You can do private lobbies but you gotta have friends to have people to play with.

  On the PC front GTA-RP servers are alive and thriving and very safe and stable at this point.

  Same, moved to kbin then hopped around some after it went into limbo. Ended up on .zip and appreciate its kind of hand-off, user-deals with it, federation/blocking.

  RIP kbin you were a real one and I hope all your devs (Ernest) future projects go well.

  I had a couple friends and we all used to dial into each others computers after school and play Doom (and Duke Nukem 3D and later [Descent](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descent_(video_game) which was mind blowing at the time).

  It worked just fine, it was a blast.
