It reminds me of these old dos games when ran without limiting cpu lol xD Animation goes brrrrrrrrr

One up for that. Espexially that the service was built out of pettyness lol.

I don’t. Embraced english food thought, even if not what they call food over there. Some rocks on my sliced and fried potatos and a bit of the same rocks on my red meat.

One does not eat chicken unseasoned tho. Tastes like cardboard.

See, the commute is meant to be counted into it… xD

I envy you your workplace. Would get in so much shit if that was my approach xD

You go for sick leave when sickness doesn’t allow you to work, not to not spread it lol. I envy you, wherever you work, that they allow that approach xD

Ya all are funny. If I get a text at night…not gonna notice. If you call me at night…not gonna notice. I have an alarm clock that literally requires me to solve logic puzzles to wake me up, because even the loudest alarm wakes me up only half the time, and even then I am “woken up”, aka will disable the alarm and go back to sleep without remembering a thing.

Slept through sirens, cat meowing and the like.

Only things I am sensitive to when sleepin is sounds of electic failure and my partner trying to wake me up. xD

Bull. Don’t infantilise people just because you don’t like licences. I too think they’re absolute bullshit, and even bigger bullshit is that they can be revoked for some bullshit reason but people need to bear consequences of their actions. Sheesh.

Most compamies in my country will also have beef with you over that and I’m european. It’s more american thing with chargebacks IIRC. Most of folk here simply contact customer service/support and talk things out, more often than not getting a refund.

…wait, making field kitchens is illegal in USA? I am not living there so I wouldn’t know. Can’t ya like throw barbeque in your backyard or smth?

Lemmy lol. Answer is simple. Everyday folks don’t like seein’ them, as they consider them lowlifes. City is doing “something” about it, so city is doing good. There are shelters, so it’s not like these people have no options.

Everyday folk don’t think about shelters being overcrowded, homeless being alcoholics/druggies just to cope with their situation and thus not being able to use shelters, or the fact that I’ve seen software devs, here on lemmy, mention being homeless or being in the past.

Most people are reactive, not proactive. They see dirty homeless person, they feel yucky, they tell said person to gtfo without thinking about the fact that it’s a person in the first place.

Yeah, that’s what I am saying, but will they have the balls to do so under the orange shitstain? He’s petty af.

Just a thought but…will Rockstar be willing to go against the orange turd? They satirised almost anything USA related for years, sassing then-current culture and events, but USA never had such a petty piece of worthless shit as POTUS before, did it?

Honestly it sounds like they solved the problem of sharing? Like, it used to be that shit got tied to your account and it’s that or the disc worked everywhere, but was required to run the copy tied to account.

Making the disc simply…move the access to copy to another account sounds actually somewhat reasonable? You can still resell it that way, second hand market can thrive on it and it even feels fair for me so…eh?

All that based on what egregiousRac quoted tho. Ain’t having strength to go actually read this and I’d rather not use AI to summarise the article.

It’s not that I like summer per se. I like summer activities which are unaccesible out of summer xD Swimming in the sea/lake, SUP board, summer night walkies in the forest, wearing short clothing without being cold and, mostly, low amounts of rain not holding me hostage inside home. Not this year tho ._.

Spring and autumn can bite my ass.

Winter opens it’s own fun activities, altho I am not as much a fan.

Goah this saddens me. I barely got to enjoy this summer at all x_x Mostly due to fucked up weather, it was fucking bipolar where I live (cold rain -> huge heat -> cold rain etc.). Thanks global warming.

Same opinion honestly, free speech with free consequences of it community-wise. If you’re an asshole, be an asshole but if people start avoiding you or straight up telling you to shut up it’s a you-problem.

And while on internet many folk became quite intolerant of different opinions, on lemmy especially it’s visible as the whole fedi is built around smaller, tighter knit communities. Which is cool, and I love it but it does tend to create echo chambers and skew perception of norm.

At best it’s encouraging sexual attraction to something that doesn’t exist

Which is literally xenophilia. People want to bonk with weird shit all the time - look at all the cases of people needing to be cut out of exhaust pipes or objects stuck in ass or vagina. Deviancy is normal, even if we all have different levels of it. That was the main part that made the xenophilia explanation work for me. Is xenophilia bad? Honestly not for me to judge, as it hurts no one and is pretty much unexplored when it comes to morality as we, kinda, never met any aliens in the first place. At least not en masse, if we try to keep open mind to conspiracy theories ;p

People want to bonk Transformers and we just give them weird look and carry on. People want to frick Cthulu and again, get weird look and carry on. I am of opinion furries also qualify there - they want to bonk something that doesn’t exist. Give a weird look and carry on.

and at worst those things that don’t exist look like a cross between humans who do exist and animals who do exist and that could cause people to fall on the wrong size of that actual animals part.

Yeah, I get ya there. But also there is a well documented thing of furries staying vigilant and hunting down actual zoophiliacs in the fandom. If someone gets too close to actual animal sex art, even if said animal is suggested to be sentient, fandom tends to implode on them and report them, which supports the idea they draw a very clean line between themselves and zoophilia. Which again supports the xenophilia claim.

About the guy you mentioned, I’m actually willing to bet he had nothing to do with furries. If furries were connected to zoophiliacs it would be mentioned more - people love attacking associated stuff and furries already have a huge target on their back. But almost every single time I saw an article about caught zoophiliac, it was a case of peanut butter and deviant curiosity with no moral brakes.

Heck, I have a furry friend, and while teasing him for shit and giggles once I wrangled the topic into more serious rails and it pretty much resulted in him saying he is still fully attracted to humans (and as dude is hetero, specifically women), it’s just that he likes the aesthetic. Similiar to catgirls, basically, just taken into full alien mode. I believe it’s safe to assume this applies to most furries - they are still attracted to humans rather than animals, they just like said humans having weird traits, basically not being vanilla. Which makes these furrsonas actual xenos rather than animals. Which supports xenophilia claim.

Which is still weird but not morally wrong, so there’s nothing wrong with letting them be. Althought they could actually try to minimalize the porn overflow T-T

Eh.

Kinda with you on that one. Never understood furries and with their porn/erotica overflow on the internet them saying “it’s not a sex thing!” seems pathetic. Especially that this is popular enough to breed a joke about struggling artist giving into the dark side of furry porn.

That being said, the best (and only sensible) way it was explained to me is that they perceive it more like xenophilia rather than anything close to actual animals. They perceive these chars more like aliens rather than animals crunched into human form.

Still feels iffy but I grasp them better with that explanation. Helps that they actively hunt down zoophiliacs in their fandom so there must be some meat on that explanation.

…shoes off the couch, lady! >_<
