  • People show you how they feel. If it seemed like your partner didn't care, that's probably the case.

    If feeling wanted and valued is your prime criteria, don't compromise. I'm not going to promise that you'll find that, but I can promise that it's easier to find happiness alone than with something you settled for behind sunk-cost.

  • Top five reasons to use Windows:

    1. I need it for work
    2. I need it for my games
    3. I need it for my hardware
    4. It's what I've always used
    5. I can turn all that crap off and run Windows like an operating system that I own and control at least until the next security update installs Copilot into my mouse cursor.
  • This whole height thing is an artifact of dating apps.

    Of course women are going to judge based on one of the 6 data points they have available. It's not that they're shallow by "nature".

    Women will almost never confront a man face-to-face with the reason she rejects him because to do so is physically dangerous.

    I saw a meme on reddit today that suggested that an obese woman could have all the partners she wanted and that only men suffered from being rejected because of their body and this incel shit is gotten out of hand.

    EDIT: here is the meme: https://i.redd.it/yyp4m7axn25f1.jpeg

  • JP is an atheist, but he recognizes the value in other people believing in Christianity. This is because the myths and symbols reinforce his worldview to people who (he views) aren't smart enough to get there with reasoning.

    Also, like all Western Chauvinists, he can't let go of the idea of "Christendom".

  • News reports that Musk is a heavy drug user suggest that he self-medicates to cope.

    Elon knows all the money in the world can't make him a real boy and that warms my cold dead heart.

    Bonus: Elon's dad is exactly the kind of POS you'd expect, but his one redeeming quality is that he heaps praise on Elon's brother while regarding the world's richest man as a disappointment.

  • Nintendo is actively hostile to it's customers. They want hardware to work just like software. You pay for it, but you don't own it.

    They even surpass Apple with the switch2's booby trap to brick modded consoles.

  • Windows users are a revenue stream, not customers. M$ views it's users as a sort of raw material that can be processed with dark patterns for ads and subscriptions. And like everything else, Americans are treated with the most disrespect and coercion.

  • I installed Ubuntu back when that was popular, and insisted on having all the graphical bling, like 3d cube that would spin to change desktops. And windows that shook like jello when you moved them.

    Of course all this messing around by an amateur did nothing for stability and after 3 or 4 frustrating issues I went back to Windows.

  • Transphobia is not like other bigotries.

    To get past anti-black bigotry, one can sympathize with what it's like to be disrespected or judged unfairly. To get past anti-homosexual bigotry one can sympathize with what it's like to have a sexuality that you didn't choose. In these examples, you have to reexamine how you think of other people.

    But for a cis person to get past transphobia, you have to reexamine your ideals about sex and gender; you have to change how you think of yourself. This is threatening to identity and ego. If you add in the rigid and strict gender norms of reactionary thinking, it's threatening to the order of all things; a rebellion against God and country.

  • It's important to use a regular shop for routine maintenance because you'll build a relationship for when something major goes wrong. The extra cost is worth it.

    Plus, imagine what kind of "mechanic" works in these places. Accepting low wages implies they can't get a job at a real shop because they suck, or because they have no experience.
