No, not at all. Steve is just very excited. Most of the stuff that he eats is uncommonly hard to get and can cost upwards to hundreds of dollars, especially if its in any good shape.

This video is...bad? To summarize, they're worried that Roblox is not doing enough to police content off their platform. They're concerned that Roblox isn't doing anything about young game developers being exploited in privat

Give it 20 years, people will think World War Two was fought by women of color with space age technology. Historical fiction is a very loosely respected genre of entertainment. We pick and prod what we want and let fantasy live out in histo

Ah okay. Now if only the vanity fair article linked in this thread didn't mention this, which got me confused: "Miller got his ham radio license in 1943, founded his own electronics company called Wyman Research, and helped develo

According to your article, that Don Miller got sentenced to prison for 25 years to life for trying to murder his estranged wife. I'm not so sure its the same person, but maybe the article is wrong?

You were right to hide behind a throwaway account. It's honestly quite easy to construct scenarios where cheating is entirely rational. But even the mere idea of such things make people revel with disgust. I don't expect to change

Its misuse is a smaller deficiency over the larger overall benefit of it though. For every oppressed and brigaded youtuber there's dozens if not hundreds of smaller channels that make crap content that don't deserve the algorithm

Sometimes retiring early can happen due to a set of accelerating financial circumstances, at which point you just need to withdraw your money and be done with it. In the past two years alone major indices, were up anywhere from 50-100%.

As a direct critique of the architecture, it's easy to shit on the building for lacking windows. But when taking a students budget and other tradeoffs into account it's actually one of the best places to live on campus. Seems to m

I have a simple question: Is it possible that they were servants and not slaves? I'm not very knowledgeable about ancient Roman history but it seems somewhat presumptuous to assume these are slave rooms. Was there no such thing as a lo

The man is 97 years old, and also one of the richest men in the world. He has done so by maintaining an absolutely-no-fucks-given-get-straight-to-the-goddamn-point attitude.

I'm not up to date on city politics, but I had a friend that used to live in Seattle for a while. She kind of hightailed it outta there once she found a remote job because of the homelessness/drug problem. Told me people protested

I picked up 400 shares on their IPO back in 2019. And then 100 more when they hovered around $14. Suffice to say I'm pretty happy with my portfolio with them today.

To be honest it doesn't really strike me as that surprising. It's a facet of cultural imperialism from prosperous nations protruding into the social strata of the less developed. We all want to try this fancy and exotic brick oven

There is a somewhat strange level of mental dissonance that occurs when people approach the policing of 'the internet' and 'social media platforms'. Internet forums have existed for a long time, and for an equivalent per
