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.
They work in my town just outside a large metro area in the US.
That said, no one seems to actually use them here and are always crossing traffic at the worst times.
It’s really frustrating to watch people of every age playing chicken with cars daily.
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’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.
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
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
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
FYI, lots of people have different grocery needs so a broad statement like “grocery trips are $N these days” is pretty meaningless without the context of your purchases or needs.
A better example might be “my grocery bills are up 50% this year with no changes to what I buy!!”
My grocery budget has changed the last few years, but from $65 average to now $85 average. That said the supplemental food I buy (occasional orders out, etc) has risen significantly more, probably upwards of +60% at times.
Fastmail supports aliases as well. I’m not sure how they are from a privacy side overall tho
I’m also the moderator of a community that Stamets has quit, so I know that losing him is a blow, because he posts a lot of content
Eh no worries, not really a loss when most of the posts were a deluge of low quality content. My feed instantly got better after that block…
Smells a lot like “Funding secured” or any of the other insane promises he’s made.
There’s the hyper loop, the cyber truck missing deadlines and quality concerns and range lies, all of the Tesla delays, etc
That said they did FDA approval for human trials last May https://www.reuters.com/science/elon-musks-neuralink-gets-us-fda-approval-human-clinical-study-brain-implants-2023-05-25/
That’s kind of hilarious since 20 years ago, western gamers were rejecting games for being “too anime.”
Today too! I’m still not really interested in the anime art style. I’m glad the enjoyers do have lots to choose from though.
Rae Drummond has a reported net worth of approx $65m as of last year.
The top 1% of United States net worth starts at $12m. She is just inside the top 0.1% of us net worth which starts at $62m.
I think there are many others one could point to more accurately, including Yahoo who purchased and then resold tumblr.
While Tumblr has made a lot of changes, some of which were walked back, they are still a well used and beloved site today. There are many now-dead or barely alive behemoth Internet companies that are better examples of “poster child for running a terrible Internet business” imo.
