I genuinely think shit like this is what promotes antisocial behavior in children. As in clinically antisocial, not just a synonym for introverted.

Children learn hundreds of new words and new things every week. That’s their entire purpose in life at that age.

Deliberately lying to them about how basic reality works for extended periods of time is likely what causes the neural short circuits of religion and conservatism.

The problem people have with your argument is not the existence of 5.1 surround sound.

Nor is it that the vast majority of households can’t afford a properly tuned surround sound setup instead of haphazardly throwing speakers around which arguably creates a worse experience than stereo.

It’s that the Dolby implementation requires publishers to license it and pay for an unstoppable ad that plays before every session, while benefitting only the petit bourgeois.

Notice how you reverted so quickly to your capitalist brainwashing. May be a good inspiration to see what other ideologies have been implanted into you.

Watch out on those Levi’s. Many of their product lines are a blend of denim and spandex, which makes them feel and fit great.

Unfortunately it also means their durability goes to shit because one of those materials is not elastic. Being blended means the fabric will just fall apart, you can’t repair them.

Lmao what trite contrarian bullshit, you yourself asserted your high value in this same comment thread.

Get over yourself.

I make more btw, cheers!

I’m hearing a lot of OG Homeworld fans turned off by this one.

Instead of retaining unique charm, they spent a shitload of money on generic video game story #6 and generic wet-looking cutscene render #4.

Simultaneously, many core gameplay mechanics were dumbed down and made more palatable for the masses.

It’s a tough pivot to make, but what else are fans of the genre gonna play hahahah

God these corporations make me want to fucking this comment was removed by Lemmy.

What a waste of evolution. We could have unironically had post-scarcity today if half of humanity wasn’t fucking evil and another 30% doesn’t give a shit as long as they get their daily Starbucks.

My brother in Christ I see the spark of a good and gentle person in you, so as a fellow neurodivergent individual, please at least give this a half thought:

What you are describing is something else other than your autism. These conditions often worsen over time if left untreated, and youth trauma does not help.

People just like you and me spend 10+ years of their lives studying and conducting science to create medications that help people like us.

Please consider looking into a referral for a psychiatrist to discuss these issues further.

As long as it’s for personal use I don’t think Microsoft gives a shit (beyond what is legally necessary)

They care more that you’re using their software and it stays the default productivity suite for workplaces

The problem is for those of us who go out of our way to make women feel more comfortable and safe in male dominated environments, hearing women treat you with the same disdain as a sex pest just makes you stop giving a shit.

Which again, I’m sure has happened with other “women when x occurs” memes as well.

Overall very eye opening. I’ll hold my own doors and stop moderating conversations I guess. Just keeping to my own business.

This entire issue is clearly just another culture war wedge being pushed by right wing think tanks except the target audience absolutely ate this one up as well as the victims.

Imperceptible to someone completely ignoring history and the world around them, sure!

The concept of state sponsored police in the US originated in slave hunting gangs. The US never changed since the beginning.

To your point though there is an incredible amount of brainwashing. Your average North Korean is less brainwashed than Americans, at least they know what other countries have.

Americans think they are the last beacon of civilization and the developed world is in ruins when it’s literally the other way around lmao.

Looks like there is a syntax to set a custom rule to exclude a domain from a particular filter list. Honestly I couldn’t be arsed to figure it out at work and Google has been ruined by SEO but there is a way!!

Mate are you seriously saying System of a Down is a non political music act

In hindsight it was pretty fucking obvious when TD was regularly inspiring terrorist attacks and was allowed to thrive while CTH got banned for saying 17th century slave owners deserve death

I straight up see top comments calling for the death of all black people on front page subs lmao

Yeah that went out the window when American corpos found out during the pandemic they can literally just keep raising prices for shittier product and Americans just… keep buying it

Welcome to the end of human society, we’re just getting started. Should have chosen a birthdate a few decades earlier, too bad!

Mate there’s no such thing as washable healthcare items unless it can survive an autoclave lmao

(In the context of infection prevention and sterilization)

My brother in Christ, those are literally not game DLCs. You can just not buy it and still get the exact same game.

Even IRL multiple different leaders have ordered MAD in multiple different circumstances, only stopped by some peon committing treason by disobeying launch orders.

You are giving conservatives far too much credit to their intelligence.

Iraq was invaded specifically because they had no WMDs. Any sane ruler would launch when faced with death. Real interesting how the rogue nations with proven nuclear weapons capability are the only ones still standing…

Go crazy lol

This is a common feature on high-end microphones. Typically there will be some toggle on the mic itself to disable the feedback.
