  • I see this argument a lot about choosing between saving the planet and eating and affording rent. Of course that person is barely surviving they aren't making choices for their food. The same can not be said for the middle class and up.

    To instantly dismiss any argument that you as a person don't have any responsibility in this, no matter how small, is ludicrous. We should all be doing all we can. Not blaming corporations but then still buying their products, eating their fast food, etc. Blame a corporation and then do something about it, like avoiding nestle products even if it means going without, especially for non essential items.

  • Worth noting my youtube premium subscription price hasn't changed since I signed up in 2017.

    If I cancel this deal I have and go to sign up again, or change to a family plan then the price goes up.

    I'm not sure if this is the norm, or a special part of the deal I got but just a bit of extra info

  • But who is buying the goods and services these corporations produce? Mysterious figures in the night, or humans?

    Greenwashing is a result of a change in consumer desire, not 100% what was wanted but a change non the less. If the people buying goods actually think before they buy and don't just look at the lowest priced item then change will happen.

  • Usually I have come across this with poorly done DLCs. They offer some bonus item in game.

    So if you buy the game with all the DLC in a sale then when you start the game you have all this extra stuff you wouldn't normally have. I can't recall the game but there was one game where I actively had to not use the DLC items otherwise the first part of the was way too easy and bordering on boring.

  • After so many hours how is to start a new town? Going through the same motions again, more or less. Or do you pick a totally different setup each time to keep it fresh, but by now you surely have done most starts a few times.

  • My brain respons with a never-ending stream of negative stuff to say as a response to any question. Then I have to try and find something half positive to say.

    Much easier just to hide myself away during these times and not have to deal with that.

  • I use my phone for quick notes on the go, or creating lists of information I want to be able to re order and edit.

    I use pen and paper mainly for brain dumps. Getting a stream of thoughts out of my head and on to paper. I find trying to use a phone for this will lead to some distraction and the thought will go before I capture all of the info.

    I also use pen and paper when studying a topic, especially for a test, I find the simple of act of writing the information down is enough to cement it in my brain, even if I never go back and read those notes.

  • That's a side affect, but those retail stores could also move out to where the houses are with some legal changes.

    It would be a nice suprise but I doubt corporate really cares about Jane and Joe's coffee shop, or the local Hugo Boss

  • It is a very similar system in Australia. Must employees have their tax taken out when they are paid.

    You can then claim deductions on certain things, and also make sure if you have multiple jobs you paid the correct tax.

    Most people get some money back every year

  • I wonder if it is possible to add a feature to migrate your user account from one instance to another instance.

    Put in some sanity checks, like minimum time on instance etc, optional application requirements.

  • I prefer glasses, but people treat me different when I wear my contacts. Had people describe it to me that they don't see my nerdy traits when I have my contacts. This seems to help me in social situations and being accepted easier.

    So I wear glasses day to day and contacts if I am going to events.
