Not sure it was so much about good feeling. From what I read it was more about booze being less likely to grant you a plague debuff than water back in the days.

Le niveau de dénis est tellement dingue... Entre les "on a connu ca en 34" et les "la PlAnEtE Des FoIs ElLe ChAuFfe" je pense de toute façons ca va pas changer l'opinion polique des gens. Et c'est sans parler des perles sur les migrants / les ukrainiens (ils ramassent pas assez avec la guerre eux apparemment) / les profiteurs du chomage...

How do you know that beforehand? Last I went it was basically always an expectation even out of strictly the food game...

Ultimate online is still by far the game where I have my fondest memories. I could really go for another round of that…

Let’s wait to see the perfs? From my understanding of the specs I don’t regret building my new pc earlier this year.

I don't doubt I'd get the brain to handle the load or die trying... Somehow the dedication in UO felt more rewarding than current systems. Lemme do 1000000 potions to level alchemy and bake 100000 breads.... it was so open.

It's not unknown to have a lill' jar at the countertop for tipping though. But yeah it's definitively not the obnoxious crap like in the US.

That’s raw…

Aren’t like most of the lemmy population in world’s 10% richest? It’s something like a yearly income of 50k isn’t it?

Here’s a point though; to build vertical experience as an expert I’m starting to suspect that one would be less subject to changing companies.

Whereas leaders have no need to stay in place and change more often.

And one typically increases their compensation package much faster via changes of employer.

Just my thoughts contemplating that I just reached the low bar on my function band as a coe lead after 8 damn years into the function. Loyalty isn’t rewarded.

Most cyberpunk read today.

How that shit is not illegal is beyond me. Gambling is already predatory but outside of sports and in fucking armed conflicts is abhorrent.

For me it’s a tale about loss of ownership in a dematerialised world. No one is going to cut a piece of my dining table because I own it and physically have it entirely at my side.

I’ll never own (my locally installed) Spotify nor the songs I listen to. Though for the later I have vinyl alternatives which no one is touching.

Not that actually doing it isn’t absolutely horrible but wait till you have children, at about 7yo they invite 8 of their friends in your house and it’s pouring outside.

The idea of sedating them will eventually come in mind. Then obviously you’ll discard it.

And come the moment of cleaning the mess they inevitably leave you’ll wonder if you should have done it.

As an outsider I fail to understand why the reason to close shops is so critical. Can’t they just say « fuck it we’re done here » at any point in time? What’s the point on pinning the closure on fictional crime level?

Is there a legitimate reason why « we » globally care about their opinion ?

Expensive. Everything is now so damn expensive suddenly.

That’s a bit of an extreme take on the topic… not wanting ads from the broadcaster is one thing, not wanting to be separately presented with the promotional items of the youtuber himself is something else. I like seeing what the guys I follow are putting out. Maybe a 2nd option in ads content would be appropriate for you but don’t throw everyone in the same bag…

Sure but even looking a only the financial produce of one person for a family dwarfs the comical 23k here. And that’s not even looking at the emotional side of things. 23k is straight insulting imho.

I can understand being fine with a nomination that aligns with his personal interests but from there the journey to « party of small people » likely takes a convoluted path.

How nice to ask kids who cannot consent to share pictures with that company…
