I definitely wouldn’t consider an injured, even broken, wrist anywhere near as bad as paralysis or death. But also, a stainless steel pan works just fine as a bludgeoning implement, too

Quite possibly the most glowing review/recommendation for the book. Clearly a motivated and talented individual, but they STILL need help cooking!

Then you look at the uptime. 247 days. No longer have you been elevated. Now you’re the vilest of vile. You’re the user that lies. You just say what you think we want to hear, don’t you? Well, now you’re getting put on hold. For as long as your uptime was.

I think there’s also an aspect of, previously we had some ignorance is bliss going about. You didn’t know, like we do today, the vast breadth of wealth possible. The near infinite possibilities that some can attain when others are simply struggling to exist. Sure, you had a concept that there are some powerful people with fuck you money out there, but it’s beaten into our heads daily now.

It’s almost reminiscent of kings and serfs, except that the extent of what’s possible for today’s “kings” is so vast that the kings of old look like serfs in comparison. The gulf between the ends of the spectrum has only increased, and drastically.

Based.

Hot. It sounds hot.

To be fair, you should be comparing 2 hands in base 12 to 2 hands in base 10, I. E. 20:24. Still a real difference, but not the 10:24 difference you pointed out.

If it were a fight club, they’d be perfectly dressed in… Pretty much anything, so if it WAS fight club, the guard is just being a guard. At least that’s how I’d interpret their comment.

Por que no los dos?

Ostensibly yeah, the product being offered is a search engine. Realistically, the product being offered is a combination of your data, and your eyes/attention.

I get where you’re coming from, and maybe I was just lucky, but holy hell my note 10+ was a TANK despite the reach around screen. Miss that phone already, I got talked into swapping when I moved and had to change Internet not long ago. A month after having my pixel 7 pro, and one fall from the edge of my desk onto the carpet, and the bottom half of the screen shits itself lol

I’ll take the bait! I definitely wouldn’t say renting is BETTER, but your comment definitely exposes some privileged views. Not everyone has the skills, competency, time, or cash on hand to manage their own repairs. There’s also other advantages to renting. Most obviously is the fact that it’s a lot easier to move - signing a new lease is so much less of a hassle than dealing with all of the things involved with selling and buying a home. This was somewhat mitigated by having equity, but right now it can take 5-10 years to have positive equity in a home.

Don’t get me wrong, the article is absolutely dystopian, dude’s paying 1400 a month for a shoebox. There is a lot that’s ridiculous about his situation, but to throw out all of the actual advantages renting can have is as disingenuous of a take as if I were to say buying is a gamble. Call it copium, or say I’m a cuck, whatever but it’s definitely not a clear-cut victory on either side

Edit: motivated -> mitigated. Thanks autocorrect.
