Its still around IIRC, been through like 5 versions now. If you're in the military you can use your .mil address and be marked in game as actual military for better or worse lol.

The most surprising part of the whole thing? It was actually a really fuckin solid game. (The original, can't speak for whatever version is out now.)

You CAN take steps to limit your exposure in varying levels of effort, the problem is a lot of that means "not using the thing" (ie gmail, Facebook, etc) and most people are not about that life, gripe as they might.

I've paid for private email hosting for over 5 years, run grapheneOS on my phone, my fb is deactivated with messenger having limited perms on my phone and kept in an isolated container on desktop, self host a number of services like password management and storage - etc etc.

Am I safe from big tech? Not completely. There's still 1000 ways your business gets out and about, and on desktop I still use YouTube logged in and all (no yt on phone though.) They're still only getting a small fraction from me compared to other people though.

This is the part that annoys me. If you want to avoid politics in a space, not "take sides," (say, as a business owner) I totally get it. However, if you allow A to be said but somebody engaging with that is "too political" or "rocking the boat" you're very much picking a side - You're allowing speech A but censoring speech B. Thats the definition of taking a side lmao.

I grew up in the country and I don't mind the shit you're talking about at all, but I never got this whole zen bullshit thing people claim to get from it lol. Wood needs to get cut, I cut it. GG.

I'm just a few drinks in spitballing, but I'd argue a pro mental health men's group would be valid, men dont have a lot of "unique" issues (that I can think of) but the demonization of MH would definitely be one IMO.

Capitalism: free markets are the only way if you dont like Nazi shit go somewhere else librulz

Also capitalism: Its literally illegal to not give us money and if you take your money elsewhere we'll sue you!

BuT i ToW (once every 3 years)

Isnt it a Chevy pulling a jet in the old ad making the rounds? I'm sure that Chevy would be fucked after doing THAT a few times but it would handle your stupid uhaul sized trailer just fine.

And then if anyone mentions it or posts about some of them will go on a tirade about how they're actually the hero cause if they don't take up 4 spots they're going to stick out into the lane/street.

Was it an act of nuclear terrorism when Russia did it?

Plus those corrections only show up as a footnote on articles without it being altered or removed. Its laughable.

I don't remember which game, but there was one that it came out that they straight up lost the files for and had to download from a ROM site to put on the virtual console thing

I pirate cause I can 🤷‍♂️ I spend a lot of money on media and gaming, sometimes I'm not $60 interested though lol.

I graduated high school in 2004 😭

I'll take $1, tell you to give the other dollar to someone in need, then reap the rewards of social media vitality for my kindness.

What I came to say. They know precisely what he means and they support it wholeheartedly.

I'm commenting on weird car habits in a "fuck cars" community, lines up pretty well if you ask me. Are you sure you're in the right community? I'm sure there's plenty of pro-car communities on Lemmy for you where you can enjoy discussing centering your life around your automobile over your home.

You claim I have zero empathy but you're the one arguing "fuck healthy or productive coping mechanisms living your life in your car is just as good and fuck you for saying that people should seek better options." GTFO with that nonsense.

Thats super popular at the Greenway parking lot near me, but honestly where its at I always assume "drug deals."

It doesn't bother me but it makes me laugh when I walk by lol.

That doesn't make it healthy. As someone who is hyper isolated due to living on a pension, it only compounds itself.

Thats possible I reckon. I live in a fairly conservative Bible belt "city" so I'm used to being surrounded by all the things I find insane, counter productive, etc 🤣

I'm going to ignore you now for your bad faith arguments. You don't know my experiences, or the behavior of people in my area.

I think its weird and unhealthy, coping mechanism or not, and I refuse to pretend it isn't to make people comfortable. Check out exercise or therapy.
