Shitposting aside: there is a valid point on there. Because we can't see our opposites in any discussion on the internet, we cannot take clues into account we otherwise might have. This leads to far-reaching misinterpretations. Imagine someone with a very weird and overly simplistic political stance they defend with tooth and nail. Now imagine that person to be some activist with a cap with political slogans on it. Okay, and now imagine the person to be not that, but a 15-year-old who just started to grasp the world around them but thinks they have it all figured out (puberty doing puberty things). Your reaction to either of them would be VASTLY different, wouldn't it. Imagine how many stupid internet fights would never have happened if it was known that one of the participants is a literal child that can't have a clue what they are talking about yet.

Yet, not knowing that we've been arguing with a child for the last hour and a half, we will leave the discussion with the impression that there are grown up people out there thinking childish bullshit. Don't get me wrong, there are those people, but they are not as frequent as one might guess from the internet.

Instant PTSD. Only beaten by an error in, say, Line 84 in a file that has 72 lines only

Just wanted to add that part of this may be a culture thing. Here in Germany, you are required to get your employers permission to get a second job or the like. Many of you might instinctively find this corporate BS, but in reality it's mainly worker's protection. No employee is allowed to work over 60 (I think) hours in a week. To make the companies stick to that, the government will come for them if any worker exceeds this number. Your employer has the responsibility to not let you exceed that, even across multiple jobs. That's why you have to get permission for side hustles. There are other (not so pro worker) reasons for this, but that would go too far. Suffice to say that Lütke is German and this might be some thing he brought from Germany.

Even for all who had swords, their primary assault weapon was usually some form of pointy murder stick, usually handheld and horse-propelled

Yes, people who fought against the Russians aren't necessarily Nazis, but people who joined the SS voluntarily are.

So those who misuse company assets to enrich themselves b mining crypto get rewarded by larger bonuses? Sounds like the way the world works for those super rich fellas like Elon "Edgelord" Musk.

That's not "suffrage", that's some power play sex thing and he loves it

Nach der Überschrift und verbrannt von CDU, AfD und FDP habe ich auf den Post hier geklickt und innerlich nur gebetet: "Lass es vom Postillon sein, lass es vom Postillon sein"

Have only read the title. There is this cool font I found recently. It's called comic sans and it's really neat. Just use it with color="red" on a black background! Looks super cool!

Well, let's compare our options here, shall we? We realistically have.two ways to leave this world:

1. Hospital (chosen by most or chosen for most by others)
2. gloomy hot goth girl murder dungeon

If we look at number two which is not the immediate choice for most I think, at least you go out with black candles, pentagrams, music that is somehow too techno and groovy and too emo at the same time and gargoyles and dragons made from black coated epoxy resin all around you, perhaps even with a bit of naughty time.

That's preferable to the bland white room with lots of tubes that go into your natural bodily orifices or have orifices specifically created for them, isn't it?

lemme post this on instagram, send it via whatsapp, upload it to imgur and have it recompressed by youtube real quick!

Idk where this upheaval always comes from when a Youtuber decides to not work for a while. If Dan Smithson in 69 Boredom-Boulevard, Unspectacular-City, Illinois decides to take a break from freelance-work, no one bats an eye. But if a Youtuber does it, everybody loses their minds!

You need to always remember that the patient in such a situation is at the lowest possible point. You cannot make "dead" any worse. So "risks" don't apply in that moment.

Or, as a paramedic I knew said when someone asked him about the same question: "Whatever happens, it won't kill him"

Endlich finden Transpasta und -pizzen mehr Beachtung!

Well, I was in a student exchange to Boise, Idaho about 20 years ago and did a daily walk around the neighborhood for some fresh air. Three days in, I was stopped by a frantic police officer with his fucking gun drawn because someone had reported me as some kind of child molester who was scouting for victims, because someone just walking was a completely alien concept there.

I was taken to the fucking police station because the policeman thought I was making shit up either. My host family had to wiggle around with my German passport and threaten to get the Embassy involved until they decided I wasn't worth the hassle and dropped the whole thing... So I learned two things from that exchange:

1. 'Muricans do not know what "walking" is
2. US police is next level power tripping

Okay, I might not have gotten the lingo yet: I see so many posts about "Rule" and I don't get it. Can someone ELI5?

Thank you for putting in the effort!

Yet... I don't get why using the *Arr stack and Plex is so popular. Plex is annoying as fuck and tries to shill you their paid bullshit at every corner. The Arr stack is buggy and having a separate system for recommendations and requests and for library management is super cumbersome for me. Compare that with Stremio... I could never convince the wife to use Plex with overseer at all. Stremio is super convenient.

Im just saying this because I spent my weekend getting another Arr stack running after years of absence and noticed that the whole thing is as convoluted and fiddly as ever and that really got me wondering why people just take this as the industry standard for torrenting.

That warthog doesn't look too worried, does it?

Well, it's not like the whole world told them that this was inevitably going to happen....

Sänk juh for träwelling
