  • do they really need changing that often though

    i don't go to bed covered in mud so all my sheets get is a bit of occasional sweat at night, i don't get why we should change them so often. they don't even smell!

  • why would he walk around with the everything cops need to arrest and convict him though? the crime was clean, is the same person who committed a clean and well planned crime going to be walking around with the murder weapon and a manifesto placing him both at the crime scene and giving him a clear motive?

    few days ago i said "someone will be arrested and tried for this, will it be the person who actually did it, or someone who has the misfortune of looking kinda like the guy". so far it seems it's someone who got unlucky because, quite frankly, the evidence seems made up

  • alright fuckers let's go over this again (and spread the knowledge please, it baffles me how it's apparently niche info)

    your sleep is on a cycle, each cycle is ~90 minutes, you need from 4 to 6 consecutive cycles to get a good night's sleep, that's 6 to 9h (how much you need depends on your body)

    now here's the kicker - if you wake up at the end or the beginning of a sleep cycle, which is when the lightest phase of sleep occurs - you'll feel nice and refreshed.

    but if you wake up in the middle - during the deepest phase of your sleep cycle - you'll feel like a fucking zombie and are quite likely to promptly turn off your alarm & go back to sleep and not even register that action as a memory because most of your brain is still asleep

    this is also why you can't really have a 40 min nap that leaves you refreshed, you can either have a refreshing <20min nap or a refreshing ~90min nap, anything inbetween will make you feel more tired as your mind now has to wake itself up all the way from deep sleep

    so yeah, sleep in ~90min increments, my personal sweet spot is 7:30h

  • you cannot know which one is which when you see a person shoplifting

    if you snitch on them, there are two outcomes:

    • whoever organised the crime of stealing baby formula doesn't get their daily quota from the person they told to do it, and either helps or punishes the person desperate enough to go and do the actual shoplifting for them. You helped a corporation avoid theft
    • a baby goes without food, and an already impoverished parent is financially, legally, or socially punished. You helped a corporation avoid theft

    is it worth it to possibly make a mother cry as her baby goes hungry, to try to help a corporation?

  • there was nothing short of death that would stop that man from continuing to deny the right to live of millions of people. Money rules the world, do you think even if found guilty of genocide he'd face prison time? Do you think even if he was, miraculously, put in prison he'd go some place else but the most luxurious prison available for the shortest amount of time possible?

    How many million dollar bottles of champagne do you think he drank with the money that he denied those who put their lives in his hands? Is that not a celebration of their deaths?

    How is it wrong, to feel satisfaction that he finally met the fate he wrote for himself?

  • the people we oppose have been widening the wealth gap, shrinking the middle class, and pushing more people into poverty. And in America - not having enough money means you, or your loved one, dies.

    That particular dragon was in charge of denying as many insurance claims as possible without getting anyone too ravenous for his blood. He was playing a game with people's lives, eventually he was bound to lose. His true cause of death was greed.

    Unless you're a billionaire who hoards wealth, you're no dragon, and nobody cares about you until you step out of line of being an obedient money cow

  • i don't get angry at things that don't affect me lol

    i do worry for steam's future, it's only this good because "Lord Gaben" has made many great decisions, it may not be a democracy but a good "dictator" is often more effective than a democracy. But what happens if/when Steam goes to shit for whatever reason? the internet will implode

  • not to mention steam's:

    screenshot manager

    community card trading

    friends & chat

    easy to join small muliplayer (friends can just send you a button that launches the game and joins them instantly)

    highly customisable profiles

    tools & soundtracks

    achievemnts

    and so much more that can be simply small little fun

  • yeah but the thing is, Steam isn't even trying to be a monopoly, all of Steam's competitors just seem to have a hobby of shooting their own foot, repeatedly. Steam is trying to make the gaming experience easier and more fun, and excelling at it!

    unlike some other platforms, Steam doesn't do exclusive deals, literally the only Steam exclusives are Valve's own games, everything else is up to be decided by devs

  • i have difficult & long unique passwords for each of the important things (emails, bank, any official gov or edu sites etc.) that i keep on a piece of paper in my notebook (with a few backup copies). And i also have 3 degrees of difficulty for my other passwords that i use like this: easy "i could not care less if this account got hacked, in fact i know this password has been leaked in plain text before so whatever", medium "i'd kinda suck if this got hacked but ultimately it'd not cause major issues", hard "i do not want this to be hacked"
