scientists work their asses off, its nice to have a little fun and make the endless hours all worth it.

ya its to emphasize my bewilderment!

I like their games but its such a weird company. like... people had been asking for bluetooth for wireless headphones on switch for years and it had just never been a feature. then one day... they like, just turned it on and said hey you can use wireless headphones now! like, that took 4 years! absolutely bizarre.

I bet wallstreetbets is going to pile into shorts out of the gate because who doesn't want to stick it to reddit and its WSB lol. Then after a slumpy start some whale is going to blow up all those shorts and pump it like crazy and then everyone will buy panic calls and the early ones in will fade the top and screw over the call buyers on the way back down. Thats my prediction. Not touching this with someone else's 10 foot pole lol

sex in a canoe, fucking close to water.

For my understanding its more a combo of overwork/underpay. A bunch left the field altogether after having annual increases capped for years, it just wasn't worth it anymore. Might as well go somewhere where you'll get adequately compensated.

Whats insane to me is there is a huge shortage of doctors but I know at least 4 or 5 people in my cohort that are on the 3rd or 4th attempt to get into med school, and these are decent applicants. Then when you do get in you're 6 figures in debt and signed up for 4-8 more years of schooling so of course everyone heads down to the states where you can make 2-3X what you would make here. Add the massive privatization push, awful working conditions for nurses, too much work/stress for not enough money and of course you're going to see a massive exodus out of the system. Its just a mess

God I miss that sub from back in the day, theres nothing quite like it.

I feel like a lot of people wanna short it out of spite and a whale is gonna squeeze them out with a big buy like 2 weeks into trading. If puts are cheap I might grab one just for fun. It'm curious to see how WSB plays it.

Thanks for this! I've been here since the 3rd party app shutdown and this is great!

I'm curious how many people stayed on PS+ after that insane price hike with no benefit for the consumer. I canceled mine mid-way through the news article lol

Honestly thats not completely off the table, the upgrade will give me some freedom and a lot of options so I've been considering a move. Due to the nature of my program I have to be near a hospital, university or major research institute and the best opportunities are unfortunately in major cities, where things are expensive.

Thanks for the judgment and assumptions, that really helped me out! I worked throughout my BSC, so yes that was paid for and a must-have starting point for my field, so no way around that. Then i did my Msc which comes with a stipend so I was able to come out of that with a debt that I paid off in 3 months. Right out the gate I was incredibly lucky and was hired at a top research institute and paid well since I was proficient in a relatively niche field. Things were ok then the pandemic blew everything up, my landlord sold my place from under me, rent is crazy high with few alternatives available, buying is out of the question, groceries and bills are insane... I get your point, I'm not exactly out to collect degrees like pokemon, I'm definitely done schooling after this and never again.

I'm not seeing any lies there. I worked my ass off my entire career and still have to go back to school to get a little piece of paper that lets me do what I do in a clinical setting. I've got 2 degrees already, almost a decade of experience and I'm even decently-paid, but thanks to the cost of being alive I was forced into even more schooling to open up a few more doors in the long run. I'm feeling exactly like this article, I've given life everything I've got and the bar keeps getting higher and higher, its soul-crushing, I'm just so tired.

I dont thik theres any game quite like it, some amazing track designs!

Fzero for gamecube was so fun

Thats just mage hand with pizzazz

I would buy a poster of this

I was going to comment this too, I have two "puppycats" that love hanging out, they're more like room mates than pets.
