First wish: kill my wife

Have 2 wishes left

As an enthusiastic idiot, why is it apparently so difficult for linux to provide basic telephone functionality? That seems like an oddly low tech thing to be struggling with.

Ahh that makes more sense then!

You got like 50% fairly popular opinions in there, and then some hopefully deeply unpopular ones, lol.

Super unpopular around these parts, i’m sure

Piefed had its own recent controversy lately. Leave yours? 🙃

Another example that maybe makes it clearer coming to mind: warhammer is a massive business, for decades. But why do people like to buy unpainted little plastic models and then do a usually mediocre job themselves painting those, taking forever? They could just buy them fully painted by professionals, that would look obviously much better.

But the enjoyment and emotional attachment comes from doing that yourself. It is your little sci fi army even if their lines are smudged. You look at those figures and remember the hours spent painting them, progressively getting a little better with each. It is the same with the instrument, the husband fixed it up, spent a lot of love and effort on it, learned something in the process. Now thats all gone and instead he has some product.

Cant you see how someone might value an instrument they repaired (and probably taught themselves how to do that) themselves a lot more than a store bought, flawless replacement?

There is value in doing things yourself, even if you could get always a better result by paying someone professional to do it for you.

Guess thats alright then 🤔

It’s only “plain” because we use it in almost everything since it is just that delicious.

You have to consider that they have to ask this question in the most neutral way to get the most accurate responses. If they tried schooling the people who think reality is fucked, but are not full on socialist (yet), that shit never works. And would skew the responses.

Good. I love the alien movies and setting, but that movie was total bullshit. Virtually all of it is nostalgia bait, like when the android quotes Ripley ("get away from her you bitch) and the crappy ai Ash remake.

Even the not very beloved prequels were more original and interesting.

Well you see, if there are fewer drivers included there is more room for user friendly features, such as persistent ai intrusion. You probably also gonna update them anyway, might as well download fresh 😇

Actually, here you go:

Thanks for making me think of an old teenage memory, watching these guys do stupid (and funny) shit on mtv

Fair enough, i am not really invested in the deep lore so to say. Just seems that there is permanent bickering going on in some way or shape on my feed, which is entertaining, but also gets old fast.

Why the hell is it that this place is so overwhelmed with stupid, petty drama lately?

The tesserqct dev, i think some blahaj mods are fighting over a dead community, whatever the fuck this is now, piefed dev being a turd, holy shit is it annoying. I am so grateful that my instance seems to be entirely drama free.

Actually ☝️🤓, that is a common urban myth. We have mapped virtually everything down there, we were not everywhere with submarines and cameras but as far as i know virtually all of the deep sea has been mapped from the surface and the general consensus is that there is nothing spectacular or extraordinary down there.

Maybe an unusual or unknown species here and there, but nothing like some unknown frontier for mankind with potentially revolutionary discoveries.

Why do you keep repeating this throughout these comments chief?

Being self important is not a political act and so far there is no indication of a political motivation, just that the dev somehow got the idea of appointing themselves secret online discourse admin. If it turns out there is some financial goal behind it i’m with you tho.

I will have a look at this, thank you for sharing your work! But also, i hope you listen to the other commenter and reach out if you need any help an online stranger can provide.

Do you sometimes look in the mirror and question the life choices that made you a person who talks about worshipping feces on the internet?
