it's a good idea to keep some drinking water in your car as well if you don't already.

Globally disabling autoplay in my browser brought me so much sanity. It's worth the small fraction of sites that behave badly because of it

I was expecting this to be about some recent online game, but nope... PSP...

Elite:Dangerous is sad for its own reasons, too, and I have a similar count of hours logged. Glacial pace of development and a lack of strong game design / sense for balance. I'm still stunned by how much of a selling point the background simulation was, and how limited it actually is in practice (it did get some love over the years, but far too little too late IMO.)

Odd, I've never had that experience. Maybe you're using a VPN or something that makes your IP look more suspicious.

Validation level is set by server owners, you are unlikely to need to verify a phone number except in the biggest (and therefore spammiest) servers

They're replacing chain link fence, not installing it, you may have misread the OP

Of course it's Nexon.

The defendant is CNN, not Discovery /s

John and his writers are a treasure

That's the best part, you don't need to explain the creation of the universe. It doesn't need to make sense; we're here regardless.

Morality is pretty self-evident and emerges from basic empathy. That's one of the most worrisome things about religious people IMO, believing morality is imposed rather than inherent makes them come off as wanting to do a bunch of heinous things were it not for the idea of hell.

An omnipotent being choosing to let you do wrong so that it can punish you if you do, is sick and twisted through any lens. The usual response is "God can't be understood by mortals" but that's a thought-terminating cliche..

"Be free or be a slave" is a false dichotomy. It is very easy to imagine a being that has free will and a huge range of creative and artistic expression while also being limited from doing harm. No limitations could apply to an omnipotent creator, so the only reason for the status quo would be its choice. And frankly if there was intelligence behind this design they could have done a hell of a lot better.

God is a fiction humans created to personify the apathy of nature so that we could cope better with our existence.

If a god exists the way Christians describe it, it's a sadist and will be getting a very stern talking-to from me.

It should be so easy.

"God created doctors. Therefore, abortion is also part of God's plan."

But you can't logic someone out of a position they didn't logic themselves into.

Huh. I never saw that used as an excuse. I always took it as, "normal" people show their true colors when they feel divorced from consequences for their actions/speech

I got a microwave with an inverter magnetron.

When you set your microwave to, let's say, 20% power, a typical microwave will cycle the magnetron, so that it runs at 100% power for 20% of the cooking time and is off in between. With an inverter, the actual power output of the magnetron can vary, so it's actual 20% power for the whole time. It does an excellent job of gently reheating things like sandwiches and cooked rice without drying them out or scorching. Also, if something has instructions written for a lower wattage microwave, I can just turn the power down until it's close to that wattage instead of doing calculations to modify the time.

Undertale gives you the option of being kind to nearly everyone you meet, and you can befriend several characters as well.

This is too infuriating for mildlyinfuriating imo lol

This was a painful comment to read, well done. 💢

how many other car company CEOs buy social media sites to troll and shitpost? not many I suspect
