The climate is not my choice and not my responsibility. I have space-time constraints, and I'm solving for them. I don't see the point in living like it's a post-apocalyptic world just to avoid a post-apocalyptic world.

Is it really worth getting to work all sweaty and smelly, and carrying a bag of work clothes?

You may form opinions which are yours to keep. When you enable a hivemind with half the power of the legal system, you ought to bear half the responsibility of the legal system.

If you're running old, unsupported software whose only purpose is to drag technology back, your "shit" is already "broken".

I'll have to agree with Apple defense force posters who downvoted you on this one, getting tazed is the thrill of using ungrounded appliances. By ignoring safety concerns, they can save on components, which saves on CO2 emissions.

Yes and I'm calling that neurotic, illogical behavior. If someone down votes you, they don't care what you have to say. So posting that edit will get you more downvotes.

The worst cpatcha has got to be Rockstar games support. You have to click all the images of rolled dice that sum up to 13, 5 times in a row. Then another 5 for some reason. If you make one mistake, you go back to 0.

Then most people wouldn't be purchasing name-brand AAA software and would likely settle for FOSS or indie apps. Even better, you wouldn't be expected to be using said commercial solutions. Subscriptions incentivize selling program

Your body doesn't need ultra processed foods. It hasn't evolved to needing them. It has, in fact, evolved to surviving well on food within the horizon. If you don't drink protein shakes, you will get as big as nature intended

It's worse in videogames like Dark Souls or mobile PUBG where they simply send you off to the shadowrealm of "like-minded" players. And there's no going back. It's a sign of understaffed moderation teams.

Because I'm only interested in the minimal functionality to use a class. That's it. I don't care and I shouldn't care about the dependencies or statefulness. I'm interested in the before-and-after of using the class

What depreciation? I'm not selling my car anytime soon. Lack of profit is not loss of profit.

You would be thrilled for purchasing a car with heated seats, and paying a redundant subscription for heated seats?

This. I wish more people realised there were about 200 million humans on the planet during the Roman Empire's existence. Nobody was worrying about eugenics or world crises. What I'm worrying about is raising children in a continua

It's laughable how Microsoft can afford to create and maintain OS No. 1 but can't write a chat app in C++.

Deriving happiness from objects and not people is an artificial, superficial, and maladapted way of life. "Status" is a sad remnant of our simple-minded ancestors. This creates a niche where you can stagnate or remain stunted emot

Because it's hard to scam poor people - they are guarding their money like offspring. To them, that pocket change gift probably seems like more of a loan, they are expected to pay back with loyalty to the platform.
