Having a toy is just as good for that purpose.
You won’t be treated as if it’s a toy though.
I’m not sure if it’s changed, but in places where the PSN isn’t available, are the players still able to play?
YouTube can burn.
They generate more money than whole countries and you want to give them more? I don’t have to pay them shit for them to make money off of me from my browsing history alone.
I would rather speed forward the enshittification to the point that all creators decide to strike and hop over collectively to another, kinder, video hosting site.
In the meantime Google benefits from my viewing data/history and sells that over and over. They’re making money hand over fist and then when you pay them for a “premium” experience you’re just handing them more. You’re already a cash cow for them with just using the site. Screw that noise.
Give directly to the creator.

C-O-C-A-I-N-E!
Yes.
You know, I can’t think of anybody that might deserve it. Makes me think of that duck’s in heaven joke.
Three guys die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, “We only have one rule here in heaven: Don’t step on the ducks!” So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place.
It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first guy accidentally steps on one. Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest woman he has ever seen. St. Peter chains them together and says, “Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to the ugly woman!”
The next day, the second guy steps accidentally on a duck, and along comes St. Peter, who doesn’t miss a thing, and with him is another extemely ugly woman. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first guy.
The third guy has observed all this and not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly woman, is very, VERY careful where he steps. He manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to him with the most gorgeous woman he has ever laid eyes on: a very tall, tan, curvaceous, sexy blonde. St. Peter chains them together without saying a word. The guy remarks, “I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?” She says, “I don’t know about you, but I stepped on a duck!”
His screen name lol.
But seriously yeah. The guy needs help. Maybe a wife.
Molasses is like honey on steroids. So more honey is absolutely a go.
If they ever do a second season, I’d love it if they refrained from trying to shoehorn in any radical changes.
Ayyyy! Now yer talkin’!
It won’t be a terminator style takeover by AI, mankind will simply lend all of our trust and capability to it rendering us dependant. Even to the point of liking our computer overlords.
I think that particular apocalypse is a long time off and can be avoided, but it’s coming.
It’s because they dissolve within 5 minutes of use after poking them through the plastic lid.
I was gifted a metal collapsible one recently because of my bitching about it and it’s a better experience.
So I become a Sol baby? Everything I have would need to be changed.
The only winners here are the January babies.
We’re comparing China and the USA. That’s the topic.
There’s a reason Florida currently has thousands of vacancies in teaching positions and is one of the bottom 10 states in terms of education.
Teachers are still free to do what they want and express their opinions (i.e., staying and risking prison, leaving the state, not working as a teacher, being politically active, teaching outside the classroom).
Book burning and expressing your opinion are protected rights. It’s absolutely embarrassing that the law exists, but the law will be challenged in court.
Discourse doesn’t happen in China. If the government wanted, you just go to prison and they throw the key away. That’s if you’re not killed outright. No discussion, no politics, nothing.
The USA has freedom. China does not.
EDIT - Ironically, even you and I discussing this online is forbidden in China. You’re not allowed to express your disgust with problems of the Chinese government or state.
Nah. That’s a strawman argument there. Killing someone is not equivalent to saying something offensive or burning books.
Of course they can. They might get in trouble or even fired. But they can still say whatever they want. They are also protesting on both sides of it, too, as is the right. The great American discourse.
Well, book burning is kinda dumb because most of them, if not all, are already digitized. It’s a statement at this point in time. While really stupid and backwards, expression is still a right and freedom that Americans enjoy.
This is unlike other countries where you can be thrown in jail for something even lesser and never have a recourse or trial.
You can still be beautiful on the inside
