  • We got the 6000. It’s on sale right now for 250. Had it for about 5 years now. We never had any mold problems but we’re in a fairly dry area. The beanbag will come with a removable cover that you can just toss in the washer to clean on a normal cycle. I take it to a laundromat so that I can use the big dryer because it’s a lot of fabric. It’ll fit two adults no problem.

    Maintenance wise, the biggest hassle is fluffing it on occasion. Ours is massive, so it’s almost a two person job to move it around so that the foam resettles and you get a cushier feeling. Smaller ones are probably easier to reset. Once you sit in it for a while it molds to your form but it is still fairly adjustable. I give mine a few sharp kicks to remold the seat if I don’t feel like doing any heavy lifting that day. It’s cathartic.

    It is very comfortable. All that being said, it’s a right pain to get up once you’re settled in. It’s not great for people with mobility issues. Sleeping on it can be uncomfortable. If all that sounds good to you, then ultimate sack is a good value. Just as good as love sac but far less expensive.






  • I found the easy money is to get the coords for a planet where a bunch of people have set up activated indium (AI) mining operations from the coord subreddit. Then I just travel there, set up a base for ease of access, and switch my network activity off. Every mine on the planet will be full of AI that you can freely take with no risk of stealing from the base owner since you’re offline. Grab as much as you can fit in your inventories, then start flying around to find a good place to sell the lot.

    The last step tends to be the tricky one. AI is a commodity that responds to surges in availability, so anyone who sold near you or near the mining planet will drive the sale price down for a while. If you find a system that you can sell the AI at market value, then you can make hundreds of millions in one fell swoop.


  • You do you. Personally I found this to be a waste of time and energy. Not to mention that doing this also adds to cybertruck owners’ sense of persecution when they’re out and about, which further polarizes them away from rational discourse.

    Anyone who owns one of those cars and drives it around at this point is likely driving it BECAUSE of the reaction they get from everyone around them. It’s far more cruel to deny them what they want. Ignore them. If you can’t, then laugh at them instead. After all it is funny that thousands of idiots spent 100k+ on this generation’s iteration of the Ford Pinto, except that it looks like shit.








  • In America, not every school is staffed to the point where they can have someone sit on phones all day. Most schools around me are working on shoestring budgets, and I’m in a fairly cosmopolitan area of California. It’s even worse if you’re in a rural area because there’s no incentive to get good teachers there through pay rates or bonuses or anything like that. God help your kids if you’re in a red state. They are giving emergency teaching credentials to anyone with a pulse.
