  And now I will eliminate Delta airlines from my airline options when I travel, because fuck this shit

  What do you think Walmart does when they enter a new market, the eat losses till the local competition folds and they are the only option left

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My world is so much better because of immigrants⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup, and we have so many different regional cuisines but you’ll mostly just find north Indian and a little bit of south Indian restaurants in the US

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pop it in your calendars⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuckin vertical integration bullshit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My world is so much better because of immigrants⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the Chinese government also supported the Chinese restraunt industry similarly in the US

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pop it in your calendars⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t understand how game dev works, how does a publishing company fire the CEO of a game dev company. Like do these publishers own the game company?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Someone sent me a text message that wasn’t to my liking so I ruined their day and cost them 100s of dollars just to teach them a lesson instead of just telling them not to send low ball overs and blocking him, yeah your dad’s the asshole in this story bud

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Babe can you refill my drink from the cloaca dispenser please?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but the people at the theatre don’t replace the concentrate pouches when they are running low so you still end up with diluted garbage that is mostly just plain soda water

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Babe can you refill my drink from the cloaca dispenser please?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Homeopathic Fanta lol, I’m gonna use this in the future

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Randy Pitchford asks fans if they'd swallow future Borderlands exclusivity deals, almost 10,000 people say just put your damn games on Steam⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t even touch this game when they were giving it away for free because of the privacy issues

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨shrooms⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Username checks out

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Men are opening up about mental health to AI instead of humans⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I never said it was the US, do rules and regulations governing doctors behavior not exist in your country?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Men are opening up about mental health to AI instead of humans⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Getting rejection because of place of birth is worth getting that doctors license revoked, find out which body governs doctors in your location and file a complaint

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that 158 families made up 50% of all US Presidential Campaign Spending⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Plus it gives you a nice excuse to get drunk and ride around in a tiny car like a little boy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But I am mighty!!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Your ancestors didn’t shave

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oh to go back...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I guarantee you the modern “hacking” scenes are just as over the top, people just don’t know any better, Mr. Robot TV show is the closest to realistic hacking and it’s not exciting and there’s no clean GUI with animations, just a terminal and a lot of typing and lots of manipulating people into making mistakes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pimp my ride⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have and they are all pussies, who rage behind a place of saftey, the moment shit hits the fan these pavement princess drivers will piss their pants and start crying that this isn’t what they voted for

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Elder God⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You will never be happy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Always there⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah cause the rest of the fast franchise is so grounded and serious, don’t they go into space in one of these, I mean come on

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Always there⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s my favorite F & F movie, fight me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Operation Narnia: Iran’s nuclear scientists reportedly killed simultaneously using special weapon⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Then who would they lord over and whose hard work would they make their money off of, on the other hand using these threats to bring back slavery feels like the scarier future to me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tough, Tiny, and Totally Repairable: Inside the Framework 12⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The whole point of making a easy to repair and upgrade laptop is that people wouldn’t have to buy the latest model to get upgrades, they can just buy the parts they want to upgrade and swap them in their existing laptop and if the come up with a upgraded Framework 12, they can just add the year it comes out to the title

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨getoffpocket.com, my guide to Pocket alternatives, just got a redesign⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep I knew it would be about this, anything for a buck, I wonder how much he made from these links

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨getoffpocket.com, my guide to Pocket alternatives, just got a redesign⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I’m sketched out that it shows only paid monthly subscription options even for open source self hosted options that you probably don’t need to pay a penny for

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I Convinced HP's Board to Buy Palm for $1.2B. Then I Watched Them Kill It in 49 Days⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Glen Howerton as Balsilly knocked it out of the park with that performance

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Denmark is dumping Microsoft Office and Windows for LibreOffice and Linux⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly recently downloaded Libre on my PC and it looks dated and busy, plus not their fault but every Office doc I open in a Libre app looks bad, the formatting and fonts are off and every change I make it says it can’t save in the office format and suggests converting the document to ODT format, that alone will scare away casual users who don’t understand what an open format is

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you have used this you are immune to all disease.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve only seen these used in the movie 12 Angry Men. That movie feels so modern in many ways that when there’s a scene in the washroom and one of the character uses these, I’m reminded that the movie came out in 1957

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good job⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey apple when you are watching a reel on Instagram and you get a phone call, the Insta reel audio continues playing on top of the phone call audio, why don’t you fix something as basic as that and give the iPhone a real fuckin file system and make it easier to interact with no Apple devices instead of stupid gimmicks like this. I’m not holding my breath though,just switching back to Android once this one dies

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm still not sure how to do this actually oh wait maybe... nope.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I do, it’s just a psychological thing I guess, I’ve started taking my own reusable bag to the grocery store these days to cut down on plastic though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm still not sure how to do this actually oh wait maybe... nope.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I just don’t want anything touching the cart surface, I doubt they sanitize those regularly
