  • Probably one of the least destructive fetishes, getting treated like a kid, lol. Or perhaps I've just seen too much crazy shit on the Internet after a decade on early 10s Reddit.

  • Honestly, probably a good thing, politics aside. These areas are all ones that are gonna get fucked by climate change tomorrow. My only hope is that it's blackrock's stupid """investments""" getting destroyed in a hurricane or getting turned into a desert.

  • BF1 with standard issue rifles was great. One week had standard issue only, and it was a ton of fun, but a lot of people whined because it was "too hard" lol. (Getting shot generally killed you instantly).

    BF1 was also one of the only games where shotguns were as powerful as their IRL counterparts. Once again, people complained that they'd get dropped by a shotgun 3x-4x the range of a video game shotgun. People didn't realize that shotguns have an effective range greater than 2m IRL, lol. Unfortunately, all the standard weapons were nerfed, all the prototypes or three person guns were modified to be one person, and buffed. And unfortunately, that was the last game patch, so things were left horribly imbalanced in an otherwise amazing game. Still, WW1-era fighting and ship tactics still work.

  • You need to pick them up and hold them like a baby :)

  • All guns should be surrendered and destroyed en masse. They are fun, but society would be happier, healthier, and with far less suicides and DA without them.

    I've seen too many close calls to consider them safe for society at large.

  • It's a very good game! I loved Subnautica too :)

  • That's a beautiful room, I love the starry theme! I also like the cat poking up from the crib :)

  • Balatro!

    Edit: inscryption is WASD +spacebar only, if you can do that with a slight seating adjustment. It's great for planes. The post game content might be even better than the game content, haha.

  • Perhaps it's different where I live, but when one of my friends asked me out, I just told him that I unfortunately wasn't interested in him, but I still wanted to be friends. We stayed close friends, and I actually introduced him to one of my other friends. They hit it off and are still together seven(ish) years later :)

    They live in a different state right now, but we still have yearly get-togethers. I miss them and hope they can move here soon :)

  • Honestly, not much of a difference. Default android is a bit more annoying, and the secure folder is inferior. The cameras are decent. It's a solid phone, and the stylus is pretty decent for notetaking. I use my stylus for grocery lists. The headphone jack and SD card is awesome. The screen and processor are great, and the battery is way larger AND charges faster than my s9 or my z fold 4. The stylus is about the same as the z fold stylus.

    The phone is pretty solid as an all-arounder. For $250-450, it's hard to have any complaints.

  • Huh, mine have been totally fine, but I got a very late model, I believe around October or November. Perhaps they fixed it.

  • Oh man, I'd say just the opposite! Date your friends! You know them well, you become good friends before you ever even start dating, which is great for pacing, and you both probably share a lot in common.

    There's nothing quite like holding hands with your best friend, or quietly reading together. Or going skiing together ❤️

    It's how long term relationships have formed for a handful of my buddies. And it's also how I met my spouse :)

    While not everything works out, having a rock solid friendship can lead to an extremely strong relationship.

  • I'd let it offgas for 24-72 hours at least. It smells awful. It's probably something awful like VOCs, lol. Definitely keep a window open until it gets less stinky.

  • Weren't they sending soldiers to Ukraine to protect them?

    And when is Ukraine gonna join the EU, as promised? If you are gonna promise things, you gotta do them. I'll believe any of these when I actually see it. :P

  • Here's your answer:

    My friends and I categorically refuse to visit states in red. During the pandemic, their refusal to use masks and vaccines resulted in their hospital capacity reaching critical conditions, and they had to export a ton of their sick and dying to Washington and Montana, among other states. This deferred care for resident cancer patients in those states.

    Guess how they thanked the states that bailed their asses out come November 5th? If you guessed "crushing tariffs", you guessed right.

    There are a few good souls there, but they have a disproportionately high number of extremely evil people.

  • This is mostly true, haha. Though....

    I held open a door in Canada and got berated for it by someone in their 40s. He wanted me to slam the door in his face, which I get if it was an apartment on the east side of Vancouver, but this was not the case, lol.

    I'm always amazed that Canada has more extreme personality types than where I've lived in the US. Generally people are more nice, but the mean ones are jaw-droppingly mean, lol. Always gives me a bit of culture shock whenever it happens, which is probably once every 10 visits or so (I visit often).

    The most recent one was someone who was extremely bothered that we rented out a space for a wedding and admonished the groom that he was using a community space an hour before it was set to open (we got permission from the landlords to use it as such.)

    All that aside, Canada is not for sale, Fuck those cunts in the Trump administration, and you guys were fully justified for what you did in 1812. 😎

  • District level heating is actually pretty efficient, some universities do the same thing on purpose to save on bills. Our relatively young city does it with the downtown skyscrapers for the same reason.

    The other nice thing is that when you upgrade the heating system to be less carbon intensive, you can instantly have a ton of buildings all jump instantly to fewer emissions too.
