Damn that's sad to hear man.

I think I now understand why you believe women are only interested in extracting value out of you. It's because that's how you've been treated. And further, you've accepted this as a universal truth. And when entering new relationships yourself, you start with the question, what value can I extract from this other person? That's probably why you don't have any male friends, because you can't extract any value from them. And you self-select for romantic relationships in the same way. You're stuck in a cycle. If you remain set in your view that relationships are transactional, it's hard to imagine you ever experiencing one that is not.

Do you have any platonic relationships? Like family or friends? Are these relationships transactional for you as well?

I don't think most women are that cynical. Like do transactional relationships exist? Absolutely, but I don't think that's the majority of them and you probably don't want that kind of relationship anyways.

In fact, in my experience, women are typically made uncomfortable when I try to insist on paying for the entire bill on a date.

I think for a lot of women, it's as simple as, "am I comfortable and do I have fun when I'm hanging out with this guy?".

But at the end of the day, women are not a monolith that all think and act the same. Just as men are not a monolith that all think and act the same. So it is unwise to assume all women want the same things out of a relationship.

I agree that we should strive for people to be healthy. But there's a lot of evidence to suggest that shame not only is ineffective but can actually have the opposite effect.

Besides, I think you're being pretty reductive. Health includes both physical and mental, we should take steps to improve both of these. And I get the sense that you specifically take issue with body positivity specifically around fat people, as I assume you don't think being short or tall is unhealthy. In which case, you're ignoring the economics of it (at least in America, there are a ton of government subsidies for corn, incentivizing businesses to load up our food with corn syrup).

The issue is complex and so would any solutions. At least in America, we need to deincentivize the production of unhealthy food, better access to healthcare, and cultural shifts as well. And I'm sure there's a whole lot I'm missing.

Yeah sort of. I think those types of disorders get rewarded in many cases. It's exceptionally profitable to exploit labor, mislead the public, and plunder the planet. When you have a conscience and empathy, that's a lot harder to do, especially if you already enjoy a certain level of financial security.

Very communism of you sir.

Yes, when someone is rude on the Internet this is communism. The more rude they are, the more communistic it is.

While it would defeat most if not all audio DRM, this would result in a lossy capture, whether by line-in or Bluetooth.

Reading comprehension is hard my bad.

Edit: wait no, it's "easy" I'm just dumb.

Most people would probably intuitively answer "no", and most computer scientists agree, but this has still not been proven, so we actually don't know.

I disagree, I think most computer scientists believe that P != NP, at least when it comes to classical computers. If we believed that P = NP, then why would we bother with encryption?

EDIT: nvm, I misread it.

Who said anything about religion? We're talking about an imperialist, fascist ideology.

Thanks!

I'm out of the loop, what's the issue with the current Nixos maintainers?

I was a big fan of the game. Always thought it had potential to be great. I had already quit this wipe pretty much as soon as I hit Max traders. Don't think I'll be returning back next wipe.

Depends on the man. Depends on the women. Orgasm is not guaranteed for some men.

That scan only scans your hard drive once an hour.

To check rss feeds for new podcast episodes, you need to go to the settings of each podcast and schedule it to scan the podcast feed.

There's a mod for Tarkov called SPT that allows you to play single player (by default it is an online only game).

Yeah, obviously the issue can be discovered. My point is that it's not going to be immediately discovered by the cashier or a customer. It'll probably not get discovered until the accountant comes by and notices the discrepancy.

No. The bill given to the customer would still show the correct amount.

And if anyone looked at previous bills from the backend, they would see normally priced chicken tenders. The total for the bill would be wrong though.
