I do when I effortpost, or when I write docs for colleagues I like.

He owns multiple megayatchts

Still a single person, still can't use them all at once.

and now a company that make these

You understand that the clientele of a megayacht shipyard is very limited, right? This is a non-issue.

Let's focus on real issues, like the move to nuclear, or finding better ways to do metallurgy than exporting all of it to the third world where health and pollution regulations don't apply, as if it's not the same atmosphere we're polluting, shall we?

Luxury purchases only a handful of people can even afford is really the bottommost thing on the list, short of regulating how much you're allowed to eat beans to reduce your methane output.

ETA: For the sake of checking my biases, I ran the numbers.

If Gabe lived every single day of a year on one of his yachts and they ran the full 1000 gallons of fuel you claim (which I am taking in good faith) this would amount to 77,850 metric tons of CO2 produced. Which is indubitably an impressive amount, until you realise that 32.8 Billion tonnes have been released in the atmosphere in 2024.

So yeah, I don't give a toss about your weird fucking fixation.

It is a lot of CO2, it's still not even a drop in the bucket compared to what we need to actually address, it is off by 6 orders of magnitude, get a grip, he'd have to own 5000 of the damn things and run them all year round to even add up to 1% of global pollution.

wanting it to control your life

Fuck no lol

Definitely partly from the gaseous byproducts of digestion, yes.

Also poop aerosols, but not exclusively.

Still a drop in the ocean compared to any of the actual needle-movers, I truly could not care less.

It's one guy using one yacht and having others parked, and even if he rented them out it's next to nothing compared to much more wide ranging systemic issues going unchecked.

I'll keep worrying about the real issues, you can keep obsessing over celebrity gossip.

Oh damn, that's a lot of layers.

No, it's a byproduct of differences in skill and fitness to tasks, it's gonna happen even in centralised economies (that were never tried and if they were it wasn't real communism, I'm sure) it's just not going to be recognised and rewarded if everyone is supposedly equal.

Not necessarily, gasses smell too.

Nah sorry, your fixation on the yachts is still weirder.

Like, shoot me if I ever give that much of a fuck about how people spend their money, y'all are just fucking envious internet town gossips complaining the neighbours got a bigger car again this year while you .

Mind your own pocket, let Gabe worry about his.

You're supposed to dial in the middle hole to fit you "right" by shaving the buckle end, that way you're always within the middle or next up/down range unless you suddenly gain or lose a shitton.

I've had it done with suit belts and with normal ones, it's something they'll even do right in the shop, all it takes is a cutter and a hole-punch, both of which you can buy yourself, and any leatherworker has on hand.

Admittedly the suit belts take more than just that but that's beside the point.

Pareto principle writ large.

That or Sturgeon's law.

Sounds like he's done a lot of research and has kept an open mind. He's also wise in suggesting to go into therapy and see if there may be other causes/co-causes.

Anecdotal, but a friend of mine has ADHD and once she started treatment for that she also lost like 95% of her feelings of dysphoria and decided to postpone transitioning until she could figure her shit out a bit more.

Years later she's decided she's fine as she is and saved herself shittons of money and physical suffering with no real drawback.

It's important not to be emotionally attached to a diagnosis.

The best thing is he apparently actually didn't get the fish sticks joke which, if true, makes Parker and Stone the best satirists of all time on merits.

I mean, you're correct but that meme's vision of what a disabled character should look like in a fantasy setting is probably the most boring I've ever seen.

A manual wheelchair? In worlds where levitation, flight, telekinesis, etc exist?

Fuck, even the X-Men have a hovering chair.

Worth mentioning that the main US senator supporting this, Mark Warner, received substantial donations from Disney, which also poured 1.5 billion (with a B) dollars into Epic Games.

Wouldn't be surprised if some bigwig at Disney pushed for this investigation, too, especially given how fucking flimsy the results were (55% of all hate symbols were fucking pepe the frog).

For me it's straight up the fact that the guy who made Sync is porting it to Lemmy.

It's a great client, and if he picked this I guess he thinks he can keep that quality on this platform, so here I am.

Soon to rebrand from "game" to "merch"

Ah yes, PC and mobile. Two platforms that are both very similar and absolutely core to Horizon's fanbase.

This will go well, I'm sure.

No, they read the meme and interpreted it correctly, that the pathologization of not wanting to be opposed is bad (You know, as displayed by the obviously evil look on the doctor wojak and the giant syringe), thus they wouldn't need to raise that objection.

who eventually got fired for sexual harassment stuff

The source you linked as well as the screenshot you posted of the quote both say HR complaints.

You can get complaints for all sorts of things, such as being uncooperative and that being read as disrespectful to a superior or a colleague, for instance, or going behind a superior's or colleague's back, which sounds like exactly what was going on, and since they could not touch the literal star of the show they canned his only ally instead.

Since you said you thought this was blown out of proportion, don't contribute to blowing shit out of proportion.
