Adding to their perspective, as another kid who grew up in a poor family… why not? Rich families were always spending “insane” amounts (aka literally any amount) on food, vacations, extra cars…
$2,500 for a day trip? …sounds insane and unachievable, just like everything else in life. So, yeah, why wouldn’t it cost that much?
When you are poor, the cost of everything sounds insane.
Amelie’s, Charlotte, NC. Used to go there all the time at night. 24/7 bakery, lounge, student study area.
The original building was torn down, which is sad, but I’ll always have the memories.
Good idea, thank you for the tips on how to disable it. Nothing more annoying than someone offhandedly mentioning something I should do and providing no details or elaboration.
Okay, maybe that was harsh, but really, not even an app name or… literally anything?
Ahh, you have skinitis, be glad it’s not boneitis.
They will certainly come here, but as a defederated website we don’t have to defend against them with one approach, everyone can take a different approach, see what frustrates them the most, then mass adopt that. I see this as the ideal… no idea how it will unfold in practice.
Lol. I guess it’s hard to tell when you haven’t seen the site change over time but… yeah?
It uses to be “argumentless” discussions on esoteric tech and philosophy issues… then a few years later it was people commenting the same 9 memes for 9,000 comments… then a few years later suddenly everyone’s anecdotes are praising China, or capitalism, or offhandedly mentioning some product or influencer.
Tbh tho, most of Reddit now just reads like Subreddit Simulator. All of the site’s value regarding sincere, unique, and detailed user content… yeah, that’s gone. They’re just coasting on past laurels, will be fun to watch the wheels fall off as the data stays locked in 2023, before the LLM Ouroboros.
Cast aside alcohol, yearn for the mines.
Well duh, the first statement is in radians.
Could be. If 17 year old me had chosen my life trajectory I’d be having a bad time. Hopefully she has better advisors and plans that don’t have her chasing achievements as a way of life. Or an insatiable infatuation with chasing achievements. That can be a way of life too, just not one I’d want.
All the rigor of school, none of the fun.
Jk, good for her. I don’t envy her life at all though, meandering about the university grounds drunk or stoned with friends was some of the best nights of my life.
Questions. Stupid, no?
thanks i rool
The American system of government is the blame game. For example, few people seem to remember that during Obama’s 8 years in office he had the government for 10 months.
During the 86 other months Republicans exploited that by simultaneously stonewalling everything while going to the media and questioning why the democrats aren’t doing more for the American people. It is a masterfully effective underhanded tactic.
After the lecture on gay frogs sir/madam.
Please respect my time.
a demon from hell, clearly
(jk, hell doesn’t exist, the idea of an afterlife is a placating tactic devised by religious heads to get people to accept a subservient life so they can enjoy paradise in the next one, which doesn’t exist, but you’re dead by then so, mission accomplished. it had it’s place in the times when it was founded to create order bur in the modern era it turns people into subservient cattle for the system. wait, is this a Wendy’s? again??)
😊 Thank you! I am.
Um sir or madam, I believe Bugs Bunny said it does, in case you missed that.
Have you seen what he is capable of? Have you witnessed the trauma of Elmer Fudd? You’re treading on thin ice, I would advise that you exercise caution for your own sake.
Before reading, know that my response is mostly off-topic.
As an American it always seemed strange to me the perception of someone as an outsider. I know other Americans do it too so it’s not like we are some special snowflake country, we have a lot of intolerance of course.
But idk, to me Americans have all sorts of accents, indian/asian, hispanic, african, australian, whatever. I never considered that someone who sounds different wouldn’t be the same as every other American.
Not sure if this train of thought is shared by other countries. I have heard that Japanese people will basically never consider anyone not native to Japan as anything other than foreign. That is a strange thought to me.
I guess I’m bad at being bigoted.
check if you can find customers who have reported receiving notices in the mail or actions taken on their customer accounts. try to find out what the penalties for violating their policy is.
if they are pretty active, you might be stuck resorting to encrypting all of your traffic, aka a vpn
with that vpn and some minor setup in your torrent client you can avoid all of this. for example in qbittorrent there is an option to “bind to interface” and you set it to bind to your vpn interface, so if the vpn goes down all your torrent traffic shuts down.
i use nord, haven’t had a single issue in years, and i have received notices at multiple addresses in the past. thus… had to get vpn if i wanted to continue safely 😞
