It’s likely a scheme to entice people onto their platform because they’re not as trusted as valve or gog. If they become a monopoly then we’ll get to see all the various catches to that.

The effects vary a lot from person to person. For me, amphetamines cause brain fog. I remember years ago when I was first prescribed them, they worked great to treat my ADHD. I never felt any addictive tendencies and could stop using them for extended periods without any cravings or even withdrawal symptoms. Around the end of high school they started to give me horrible brain fog though, it would take me a few seconds to even recognize my name, I had a hard time remembering where I was or how I got there, it was pretty bad. I stopped using them pretty shortly after I figured out the cause of my symptoms. Definitely best to talk to a doctor about it, don’t assume it’s going to work for you.

I’m sure to a lot of people this fact is no surprise, but from my neck of the woods I haven’t even heard of this stuff.

I didn’t read the article, i just want to rant into the void about this thing that itches in my mind when I see this topic.

I don’t want a robot that looks human. Even if they manage to make one that’s convincing and isn’t nightmare fuel, I’m still going to be uncomfortable around it. It’s because of the fact that this robot’s existence would be inherently deceptive, trying to fool you into thinking you’re talking to a human, only for you to find out that this thing isn’t human. It falls out of the visual uncanny valley, but into an entirely new one, a more existential uncanny valley. If you want me to trust a robot, you can’t make it immediately try to deceive me into thinking it’s human. Look at movies and cartoons, the most appealing robots in those media are obviously robots. I’m sure there are a good few Androids that look human and are appealing in their own way, but for the most part you get things like Wall-e, or baymax, or r2d2, designs that are not trying to fool you into thinking they’re human. All of those designs have a charm or appeal to them, and they all look like robots. I don’t know where I’m going with this, I’m gonna go to bed.

This is how I’d explain it. More specifically this is an example of a concept called a “dummy pronoun” in English. Phrases like “it is clear that…” Or “it is raining” are using “it” as a dummy pronoun. They’re used to express a verb without expressing a subject. in other words, [verb] is happening.

I just know that I have neither B)

I rarely actually pirate anything. The only time I pirate is when I’m otherwise forced to go through that specific company to do the things I want due to monopoly shit.

Used to pirate windows before switching to Linux (I still give people I know helpful tips on the process though, not everybody can make the switch yet). Used to pirate MS office and a couple other pieces of software back when I had to use them for school. I would pirate substance painter if a Linux crack was available, but I haven’t been able to find one and I can’t get the windows version working, so I simply don’t use that software. And as for shows and movies, that whole mess of subscriptions, yeah I don’t watch pretty much any of it. I buy physical copies when possible and watch stuff with friends who have the services. I use bandcamp for most of my music, sometimes YouTube for discovering new stuff.

I will however keep up to date on all of the piracy methods because i will not be caught helpless by some shitty company who thinks it’s found a way to corner me.

I wouldn’t complain if we brought back þe thorn.

I feel the pause of the Oxford comma when I speak. Always throws off the rhythm of a sentence when I don’t see it in text.

Idk if you can even get a 32 GB hard drive anymore. I can only find 64 GB drives for around $14

But they don’t have to reach the ground or get in your way, and you can make them light and breathable but also repel water and protect you from the wind, but you can also open them up and move them out of your way by wearing them as a sort of cape which also lets the breeze in… They also look neat. I like cloaks.

It makes me upset that we’re probably going to find a cure for aging before we find a way to get the old generations to adapt to change.

Ooh, do you know of any good ones? I wanna download a car!

I don’t think this is misleading. Misleading is when you use technically true facts to draw someone towards an incorrect conclusion. Calling a plan unlimited then having a limit is more like fraudulent if you ask me.
