Any pronouns. 33.

Professional developer and amateur gardener located near Atlanta, GA in the USA.

I'm using a new phone keyboard, please forgive typos.

    • Don't discuss advertisements with friends like people did in the past

    This one is big and I never noticed it until a few years ago. My wife and I never got cable when we moved into our own place. One time my mother in law was talking to my wife about some commercial and my wife just said she hadn't seen it. My mother in law got really weirdly upset or something, like my wife was trying to be condescending or something. But she was talking about it the same way people might talk about a funny skit from a show. It wasn't until being away from it for years that I realized how odd it is.

  • Wait, that sentence has been said before? 🫪

  • I suppose while doing weird things is a wonderful time to notice it's a pattern for your family.

  • It's the logical conclusion of trying to prevent trans people into the rest rooms and changing areas that match their gender.

  • Which part do you think is incorrect though?

  • Nah to which part?

  • I feel he's comparing streaming to white collar jobs, not blue collar jobs. I often refer to my white collar job as my first "real job" because it was the first job I got involving my degree. Prior to that my blue collar jobs where I worked as a "janitor" or in a deli were just part time work to get some spending money.

    Ironically, or perhaps not depending on your perspective, having every statement you make over analyzed because your profession is just constantly making statements live can certainly be soul sucking. I think this post is evidence of that. You have to constantly make sure you don't say things that can get clipped in a way that will make you look bad.

    Judging by his other statements, I find it hard to believe he's saying that hard manual labor is easy work that isn't soul sucking.

  • Life is like a hurricane, you know, twisty.

  • Yeah, I think if Space X sent a crew to the moon then the reaction would've mostly been the same.

  • This is 100% why Reddit made the API changes the originally brought many of us over. AI companies scraped the web, made LLMs, and Reddit missed out. They wanted to make sure the next ones paid them.

  • I've often said most Internet ads are ableist. They, quite literally, are meant to rip your attention away from what you're doing.

  • Holy moly 🫪

  • Soldiers ≠ Cops

  • What I hate so much about the modern versions is that not only do they try to make him not a bad guy, but they out that stupid scene with Jabba in right after it. Narratively it serves the same purpose as the previous scene and the dialogue is nearly identical. Plus it really cheapens how big of a threat Jabba should be. Han steps on him. Jabba was throwing people into a pit just for shits and giggles. Why would he let someone step on him? Some scenes really should stay deleted.

  • No! And the reason I say no is because Greedo didn't shoot at all! In some versions they both shoot and in some Han shoots first and in some second. In the one I grew up with (VHS box set, face edition) he is the only one to shoot.

  • Oh that's interesting, I wonder if it's easier to get heartburn in space? It's common to need to sit upright to keep the acid down.

  • Efficiently packing 17 square cows.

  • Obviously when discussing milking cows, we assume a spherical cow universe.
