  • Yes and no. I’ve used a Quest to watch movies in a theater with different people from around the world and it was a very social experience. I’ve also attended a few support group meetings for dealing with loss in VR and that was honestly a really positive experience.

  • God it would be great for a huge back catalog of tiktok videos to just be lame tweens dancing in silence.

  • In the middle of one of his concerts last summer he pulled out this gem:

    “When God made you and me — before we came out of the womb, you know who you are and what you are. Later on, when you grow out of it, you see things, and you start believing that you could be something that sounds good, but you know it ain’t right. Because a woman is a woman and a man is a man. That’s it. Whatever you wanna do in the closet, that’s your business. I’m OK with that.”

    The clip ends with Santana lining one hand behind the other, and adding that he was “Like this with my brother Dave Chappelle.”

    Like, if you don't like trans people I guess you do you, I doubt anybody's gonna change your mind especially at his age. But, why exactly do you need to get on stage and disparage a group of people like that?

  • He's turned very much into one of those "Britain for the British" types and has supported people like Nigel Farage and the Brexit movement.

    Real shame, I love the Smiths' music. Sucks Morrissey is such a douchebag.

  • Yeah also Johnny Rotten has gone a similar direction.

  • Sure, but that's just how it goes. Businesses take their transaction fees and roll that up into their overhead expenses and then factor out their retail pricing with that in mind.

    Knowing that, you can try to claw some of that back by utilizing card benefits or not. It's basically the only thing you do have control of in this situation.

  • Reddit's been running ads for a while and has never turned a profit

  • If you’re responsible with them you get a number of perks. Many cards have some mix of the following:

    • extended warranties on electronics
    • fraud protection (I had a credit card stolen and $17k charged to it, all forgiven)
    • pretty easy dispute system if someone fucks you (Iceland Air fucked me real bad on a canceled flight/voucher bs scam they were pulling on people during Covid. I filed a dispute and got all my money back)
    • % back on all kinds of purchase categories
    • free road side assistance
    • air miles
    • upgrades in flights
    • iirc some hotels and rental car companies require them
    • etc etc

    I’ve never paid interest on a single card in my life because I always pay my balance in full. Works out great for me. If you’re bad with money, I’d stay way.

  • Yeah a number of these old rocker dudes have really shown their ass. Waters, Clapton, Santana, etc

  • Yeah had that one a few times, it's a really solid jerk sauce. I like the green sauce they make alright too. The OG recipe is def still my favorite though. So good.

  • Definitely true, but it doesn't account for everyone under 40 who doesn't make it out to the polls. A lot of that is apathy or laziness.

  • People like her and MTG and Trump don't have empathy and are incapable of feeling shame.

  • That wouldn't explain it giving her larger breasts as that part of the image wouldn't have been cropped out. I use Photoshop all the time and generative expand doesn't just go rogue on objects inside the crop like this.

  • Yeah they may have done that in Seattle too because I first noticed them randomly popping up on tables in small diner sorta spots around town when I was living there.

    It definitely worked, I went home the first time I tried it and ordered multiple bottles and recommend it all the time. I live in the EU now and it's harder to come by here but I did just find a site that sells it today so I am for sure ordering some.

  • If you're in the states, also give Secret Aardvark a try. It's not a Sriracha copy or anything but for me it really scratches that itch of a hot sauce that you really wanna squirt a lot of on anything. It's fucking delicious.

  • Photoshop doesn't do that when you resize images. I think if this was indeed a mistake, they ran it through something like Midjourney which does go off script sometimes.

    More than likely they did this intentionally to be sexier or something. Typical trashy news behavior.
