I think you touched on how to make pay it forward work: make it as low effort as possible.

In this case, while you had lots of work, the people “paying it forward” had almost none. Thus the chain was able to go for as long as you were willing.

Yep. Prior to last year if person X told me person Y was antisemitic, my opinion of person Y would have dropped.

Today? It’s about a 33% chance for each of X, Y or both being pieces of shit.

Wanted to see if I could do anything exciting with the new Satisfactory dedicated server API. There’s no documentation of it anywhere online, but there’s a random markdown file documenting it in the installation directory. Got it working but turns out it can’t do much. Oh well

Ignoring the obvious, I was not expecting that kind of money being dropped on the interior based on the photos of the exterior.

I think that’s my main complaint with the game. Once you find a way to beat the boss, you just go for that build every time. It’s so punishing and the path to get there is so long, that it’s a massive disincentive to try new things.

Negativity bias is real! I was reminding myself just today that for every act of hatred, there are ten thousand acts of love or kindness happening unreported all over the world. In homes, on the streets at the store…

Don’t let the news get you down. Things aren’t as bad as all that.

I’m currently using Unraid for pretty much every thing you listed, and I love it so much. I really appreciate being able to set up almost everything through the web interface. It makes my hobbies feel fun rather than just an extension of my day job.

That said, I bought the licence before they switched to a subscription model. So if I were starting over I might look into free alternatives.

You can still buy a lifetime subscription for Unraid, it’s just a lot more expensive.

100% this.

For me I got so immersed in the world and character that it didn’t even occur to me to save scum. This RPG is so good that I actually felt like I was living the story. The only game that ever managed to accomplish that.

I dunno… Anytime my kids see these pouches at a store, they beg us for them. We’ve never bought them at home either. I think kids just like the novelty of drinking out of a bag.

Agreed! The most promising standard is called matter. Vote with your wallet!

Soon we’ll be able to remove peoples clothes in real time. Truly the future we all aspired to.

Terrorism is when the weak strike against the powerful. Oppression is when the powerful strike against the weak. Both are deplorable, but the latter is much more insidious due to the target population’s inability to stand up for itself.

So it’s very rich to hear you lecture others on not knowing their history, when you apparently just ignore the over half a century of oppression that led to these acts of terrorism in the first place.

You also say all Palestinians are undeserving of sympathy, because of these acts of terrorism. Is that because you think all Palestinians are terrorists? Or just because you think Palestinians are subhuman and undeserving of sympathy by default? Either way, there’s a word for that, it’s called being a bigot.

Imagine risking your life to capture a video in portrait

Sounds like maybe your work place is understaffed tbh. I recognise I’m saying this from a position of privilege, but that sounds like the company’s problem. Not yours.

Though as others have said, the law doesn’t prevent you from working overtime if you want to. I hope the pay is worth it at least.

Aww, lay off Jonathan. He’s a pioneer for gay rights, which is much more than can be said for any of you lot.

Due to his advanced age, Jonathan spends his days doing almost everything with his mate, including eating, sleeping and mating… The sex of Frederica, … his companion since 1991, was cast into doubt in 2017 when island veterinarian Catherine Man indicated that due to a deformity of its plastron its sex could not be verified,[4] and is now known to be male, being renamed Frederik.

I wouldn’t recommend talking to your cat about Satanism. The best bet is to just hope they never find out about it.

Lol it’s definitely a jab at America (says a Canadian)

I think I’ve listened to every Canadaland episode since like 2016 or so, and I’ve yet to hear him say anything even remotely approaching what people accuse him of.

That said I don’t follow his X account or anything.
