Haha, I sleep in a hoodie and my wife is baffled by it, she’s a furnace and couldn’t possibly.

I really enjoy having that hood, feels like I’m strapping into sleep time.

Disagree! Sleeping with the windows cracked open in the winter is amazing.

Fwiw they’re just collecting a paycheck. Sure it’s scummy for them to not reject the businesses offering them the money but tbh I really don’t blame them - I’d probably take the cash too.

Depending on the channel size sponsored ad reads can deliver upwards of multiple thousand per video for the creator. If you see multiple channels with the same ads, it’s bc the company advertising got a big budget approved, that’s it.

Imo just skip the ad reads (or get sponsorblock) and forget they exist. Usually the creator doesn’t even give a fuck who’s paying them or why. They are victims of the system too, not maliciously peddling garbage. I do wish they didn’t have to peddle anything, but here we are.

I think there is also upside here by formally allowing renters to positively affect their credit history through consistent renting.

Homeowners and credit card owners can improve their credit via consistent payments, why not renters?

(Yes, I do know there are ways to have your lease impacting your credit but they aren’t a default and many renters would benefit from the credit boost this could enable)

I’m nearly at 7 with my employer and I’ve found the situation to be quite good and I see no sign yet to jump ship. There’s still good gigs out there.

I’m sure the person you are responding to had good reason to stick around 20 years. It’s possible only recently did the math not work out for them.

Yeah, I’m with you. The entitlement around media (games movies TV) is insane to me.

You do realize those are usually exclusive for only a year, right? So EGS pays them out for a year of exclusivity and then the devs are free to launch on steam and others.

The thing is, often if they don’t get that first infusion of cash from a deal with EGS (or another investor) they don’t get to complete or even launch the game at all. So it never would make it to the other markets.

Btw he still has to play the full amount. Just reduced payment needed now. It’s still shitty, but he ain’t off the hook.

I have a pair of wired ath m50x from 2008. They still work well and on the third set of pads.

Pretty sure folks are referring to streaming sites meaning like Netflix. The person you are responding to said “click and go” referring to services like YouTube and Hulu not sketchy “streaming” sites like what you are describing that require some hoops to go through to make sure.you don’t download a virus.

Uhh it’s not like the UK is actually any better in this situation if it’s true that they are sending random migrants to Rwanda

Could you pull the ladder up behind you any harder?

they almost certainly saw you

Nah, there’s not enough info to know that or even assume it. People are not perfectly aware of their surroundings or others looking at them

Not suggesting our system is correct or even good, but have you considered who a person counts as their most trusted advisors? Usually ones immediate family are very important to them and often helps guide their opinions on life.

So when it comes to the president or leader of a country, I think it’s actually a bit nice to see the family, because they will absolutely be involved somehow. Knowing if the family is stable or not in public appearances is fairly valuable to understanding the proposed leader.

So what, we should eat shit and die and suffer and not be excited about things that feel like small victories?

The pov you’re providing is bleak and grim. We aren’t dumb, we know we’re fucked and our election sucks. We can focus on multiple things at a time and we can laugh at our political idiots while also being mad at them.

Definitely try and finish the series first. The unofficial fourth is a direct continuation of some of the in-universe lore/happenings

They tried to stand impartial (my most generous interpretation of reddits in-action towards the donald) and it really fucked them.

It’s so weird how many platforms cater to harmful rhetoric in an effort to stay neutral only for them to later ban the community after the damage has been done.

If I were more conspiratorial I’d suggest the Donald survived for as long as it did on purpose and with the explicit support of the reddit admins/execs…

And then 34 tomorrow. Lol, lmao.

I’d suggest skipping it. While it’s a fun continuation, the writer is not nearly as good as Liu Cixin. It’s definitely a fanfic

For me it was when his videos turned into advertisements blatant for paying the bills. He moved to CA, lost the passion for yt (which I don’t blame him, life happens) but then the videos he would make were soulless adverts in his vlog style.

He seems to be “back” now doing videos with passion and vigor. I hope he’s having fun again
