Eh, being burned out means exactly (most of) that. Especially being rude is a huge sign of being burned out, because you just can't muster the energy to be positive, because everything about your work pisses you off, including your coworkers, customers, bosses and the work itself.

I don't think hospitals do count, being burned out could be an official requirement for the job and you wouldn't notice a difference.

This is anecdotal, but male teachers get a special treatment if the school staff is mostly women.

Yep, this is the reason, the service that facilitates this is called Lemmy Federate.

Yep, just couldn't make it run on Win11 last time I tried, nor Win10.

Both the normal and remastered just couldn't run well.

I don't think he's little anymore.

Well, there are games you can't play on current Windows. Like I couldn't get Fahrenheit work on it at all. On Linux it worked first try no modifications.

Probably not as many as 20% of games, though.

I mean, if ever there was a good reason for blockchain (aka immutable things that can't be changed after being created), it's this.

Digital everything is the future, like it or not, for long term preservation it's better to focus on digital solutions.

I was in a dinopark recently and there were some bone replicas, footprints etc. and I was constantly like "how the hell didn't the scientists see that it's just a giant chicken?"

Some of it is extremely obvious.

That intro song from Lion King, just the initial "haaaaaa".

I mean, not even 500k people in the whole of EU care about this apparently, so we get what we deserve, I guess.

It really looked like it'll be signed quickly in the beginning, I was really hopeful.

Now I'm not really sure it will pass.

I read some researches about certain genes making it more likely to be gay. Though it's been a while, can't remember the specifics.

Another interesting research I read (which I need to check for new info) was that each subsequent male child was more likely to be gay and it was actually the mother's body that caused them to be gay because that lowers the competition for the oldest children.

J2ME are old dumb non-touchscreen phones. My last one was Sony Ericsson j108i. And just now reading the Wikipedia entry, it was actually the last non-smartphone phone by Sony Ericsson! Nice.

Damn, the nostalgia is real. And the design still looks much better than smartphones which look pretty much all the same. Back then, phones had personality.

The Sony Ericsson phones in particular had very advanced J2ME support that I didn't see that much difference between that and my first smartphone (Nokia C5-03). Not that there weren't differences, the smartphone was definitely more advanced, but it wasn't that huge of a leap.

Nope, it doesn't have a controller built-in and its main purpose isn't gaming. You can't run PS games on a Switch, does that somehow magically make either not a console?

You can play Mario on old dumb phones using J2ME emulators.

Another likely cause: you're posting to a non-local community and you got hit by federation issues, while your instance thinks the post got created, the target instance doesn't know about it.

Happened to me a few times.

Everyone also always forgets that they save money on distribution massively. And that the amount of games sold has increased significantly.

It's not as simple as dollars had more value, games should cost more.

It's a console and a PC in one package! Or you feel like the other consoles don't have an operating system in them?
