They actively nerfed xp to make things take much longer and at the same time the end game is very repetitive and even more grind. They don’t give you anywhere near enough storage either. I’m sure there is more I’m not thinking of. But essentially the game is good up until you hit endgame really and then with people leaving and it being designed as an always online game you end up having to solo things intended to be done as a group.

Hey. I thought I’d give this a shot, just a general chat thread about running… eg. How was your run today, how are you tracking, how’s your training going for that race that you decided to go for etc… if it’s popular, maybe someone knows how to write a bot to post weekly or monthly? (I don’t)
First time running in over a year today. Recently lost 40 lbs 5-10 of it from having covid the last couple weeks but I managed to go 2 miles and only felt like dying a little lol. So I count that as a good start.
My first guess is that it was something they had to agree to as part of a deal. Like to keep the government open or something like that. Could very well be wrong though.
It just feels so out of left field for the administration. I’m not saying the Biden administration is perfect cause its not, but border walls are not something he has ever given any indication of having as a priority.
I have had zero desire to use Netflix for years. I used it to watch older shows and movies so when they started losing those and making half-assed original stuff I canceled my subscription and haven’t missed it one bit.

Elon lied about the monkeys — and he shouldn't be trusted to put his Neuralink chips in human brains.
"They are claiming they are going to put a safe device on the market, and that's why you should invest," Ryan Merkley at the Physicians Committee, told Wired. "And we see his lie as a way to whitewash what happened in these exploratory studies."
Really heartbreaking reading what happened to the monkeys.
People quite rightly think of Elizabeth Holmes as a fraud for making false medical claims about what the Theranos machines could do. So why aren't Elon's claims at Neuralink being held to the same level of scrutiny?
Honestly, interface chips in our brains would be a logical step at some point in the future. But hell would need to freeze, then thaw, then freeze over again before I trust anything of elons being inserted in my brain.
Ah damn I didn’t think of that. I feel for them, but elon is the last person they should trust for that. I don’t honestly know who they should trust these days. But techbros aren’t one of them.
That only works if there is a path already in place to do these things and a willingness to take that path. People are sick and tired of trying to go through “official” channels to fix things when it’s obvious those channels are designed in a way that completely works against them. Yes, this potentially could destroy the livelihood for some and if threatening waste of oxygen management that cares nothing for others is the only path to create change, than it’s a great time to be a vendor selling pitch forks and torches.
I’m just saying, they are the ones making it so the peaceful options don’t work/are ignored. If that’s how they are going to be then it’s time for torches and pitch forks. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
If people did it your way we would still have slavery and women wouldn’t be able to vote or hold jobs. There comes a point where the people preaching the reasoned approach are simply helping the oppressors. I’m not saying people should go out making death threats, but expecting people who’s livelihoods are threatened by greed to shut up and martyr themselves or go through broken channels that don’t work is stupid and not going to happen.
You don’t get to decide what others allow on their instances. It’s regular people hosting these servers and these same people having to moderate and manage those instances. They are the ones who face backlash and the repercussions for what’s posted on their servers so if they choose to make the decision to defederate to protect the instance community as a whole then that’s their choice. Long story short, tough shit. Don’t like things being defederated, create an account on a different server. Or better yet, create your own server than you can choose who you do or don’t federated with and what happens on that server can be your own responsibility.
Someone asked a question about how frequently young people have time to socialize and it made me think about what people do with their evenings.

Lol, tell us how it was so much better back in your day grandpa. Shoe us how out of touch you are and how worthless the opinions of people like you are 🤣
Finland schools aren’t being gutted by right wing nut jobs and being shot up several times a week due to more fascist nut jobs who would fuck their guns if they could.
I feel like the point at which you are transporting kids regularly is the point you shouldn’t have things like that on your car. I mean, it’s trashy even before, but the trashiness increases exponentially when you add kids into the mix. Just my two cents though 🤷♂️
Your links keep contradicting your own point and your response is that we are confirming our own bias? The mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance you go through on a regular basis must be a real bitch lmao
