I love this! This is exactly what I think too. It’s just a matter of misses.
Like space-time is so mind boggling that the idea of aliens is most likely just us from a time before but we will never know because by the time they (we) return, we’re already gone. Some sort of paradoxical loop

Going off the ancient alien theory, if real, my belief is that we haven’t been visited again because they haven’t made it home yet to tell anyone about us 😂

But on our planet we find life everywhere with even the most harshest of climates still teeming with life. I’d say we will (if we haven’t already) found alien life in microbial organism form.

Despite the conjecture here, he still sounds awful. Especially if you’re rich and successful and you don’t even help friends who helped you.
Like if I was broke and working hard on some story and my friends helped me in some capacity, and it was always known it wouldn’t be for financial compensation but then it goes off and becomes a success I would definitely help them back. Maybe not like give them a credit on the book but a thank you shout out and maybe something off the record or something… Not ruin my relationships and be an ass

I’m so happy to see a few alternatives popping up already and I hope to see them fleshed out well.
As someone who’s pretty new to things like FOSS, self hosting, etc. I am hopeful that there will be a release that’s more “idiot proof”.
I have a few friends who aren’t going to spend time trying to learn all the small things needed to set up stuff. Hopefully I’ll be able to set up something and just invite them and they just have to make an account in an app type thing to use. Lol

Wow, what a peice of shit human. I’m glad I’ve not gotten into any of his work so I can just simply avoid.
Thank you for providing all this information and sources.
- Comment on Let's take a moment to remember the time period when everyone had to adjust to using dual-joysticks on controllers. 4 weeks ago:
I grew up on n64 and I don’t recall having any issue with jumping to dual joy sticks. Like it was so natural… I probably had a week of adjustment that I just don’t remember.

For the first time in my life I have considered a gun. I agree with your comment, it’s typically something I don’t need or want. I don’t want my neighbours to want them or need them.
But here we are and it’s terrible.

- Comment on Rent is theft 5 weeks ago:
Not sure I follow? I worked for it. I worked very hard to be in a position to buy it and afford it. Some who can’t afford the full price but can pay rent and still get to benefit of a home living lifestyle without needing to own. What’s wrong with that?
There’s a divergence here because some people expect a hand out, not a hand up. There are programs in some countries where people rent to ownership and I think that’s what the government and other private companies should be doing. But I don’t like being lotted in the slumlord scums.
- Comment on Rent is theft 5 weeks ago:
For what it’s worth, I’d like to add that I work a regular job still 50hrs a week. I have a single other property and don’t consider myself a “landlord” because it’s not my career or something I base my sole livelihood on.
If the government wants to make housing a human right and take it over with some fair compensation I’d be happy to not own. Property management comes with its own set of trials and challenges with horrible tenants, bad people go both ways.

- Comment on Ah, customer service 5 weeks ago:
Hilarious and also sad because it’s true. I was privileged to attend a private school for a bit and the grocery store across the street had to ban the students. I also worked 2 jobs at the school so I was able to talk to a lot of the various workers there and got talking to the cafeteria manager.
He told me that the theft at the cafeteria was insane and they had cameras and could identify who was stealing. Overwhelming it was the students from the richest most wealthy families.
Some of us got there through scholarships, some of them got there through money.
- Comment on Rent is theft 5 weeks ago:
What I don’t like is I worked 3 jobs during school, never went on trip and lived very frugal. I was able to save up and buy a property. I played my cards right and also got some level of luck and was able to leverage the first house to buy a rental property. I do my hardest to treat tenant with fair rent and safe place to live.
Yet on paper, I am a “landlord” and demonized because of some bad apples. I hate it because I worked hard to get were I am and now I’m a problem and don’t want to just hand out my hard work.
I think there needs to be an asterisk on these things because I agree there is generational wealth and billionaires are a problem but damn if I had bought a couple of franchises instead and did well that way maybe I wouldn’t be as hated.
