how can something be so courageous and yet so true (slrpnk.net)

Edit: Jesus Christ, people. If you buy a $150 Thinkpad made by slave labor instead of a $1,200 MacBook made by slave labor, you're still supporting a capitalist economy based on slave labor. We all do. We have no choice. The number of smug liberals in the comments saying "well I buy a cheap used laptop" or "well I buy coffee...

Sylvartas ,

I'm no Apple fan but I'm scratching my head at this comment. Would any other brand of laptop be "less capitalist" somehow ? Just because they are less overpriced than macs ?

Sylvartas ,

I was healthier in my early twenties because I actually had time to workout tbh. I need to make the time to start doing it regularly again...

Sylvartas ,

I sort of understand the reasoning behind the tradwife stay at home bullshit but why wouldn't you want your working wife to bring more money for the both of you ?

Oh... It's also about control and exploitation, isn't it ?

Sylvartas ,

Also a planet without excessive billionaires. Somehow the modern tech moguls managed to make the robber barons sound tame in comparison

Sylvartas ,

It's a fantastic game. Can't recommend it enough

Sylvartas ,

Silly you, you should know that it is not allowed to say anything that could be construed as remotely positive about Epic (or anything negative about Valve/Steam, for that matter) on this site.

Sylvartas ,

Ada could never be republican, on the basis that it's named after a british woman scientist. I don't think she's on record as a feminist, but that's about the only thing that would make her "worse" in their eyes

Also why do the democrats only get languages for people who don't care about performances ? /s ^(it's just a prank bro)

Sylvartas ,

I mean I'm pretty sure that if the owner of some IP actually asked them to remove it from peoples' libraries due to them stopping sales on Steam, they would legally have to do it.

Sylvartas ,

Hey in all fairness he allegedly went through a tiny fraction of their physical conditioning and training /s

Sylvartas ,

Typically you need to block neutral/high to block an overhead. So yeah he's getting hit

Sylvartas ,

"Twink" is also an old MMORPG term that designates characters specially optimized to play in the lower pvp brackets with the biggest advantage possible.

For example, back in my days, in wow, a lot of people would play level 19 characters (Levels brackets for pvp were 10-19, 20-29 etc) with the best pvp gear for this level and enchants that no one in their right mind would pay for on a character that was not meant to stay stuck at this level forever.

A non-geared level 19 hunter in a battleground was already scary if you were around level 10, but these mfs could basically only be defeated by other twinks.

Sylvartas ,

I don't blame her, that's a very real risk. I managed to go almost 3 weeks after getting with my current gf before talking about wh40k

Sylvartas ,

Also net weight vs gross weight. I think there's a law that regulates this where I live (France) because it's always specified but I don't see it here.

I assume OP is from Canada because I see English and French on the packaging. I lived there for a few years and was losing my mind over this kind of stuff the entire time.
Prices never include taxes even though you basically always have to pay them, price per pound/gallon/unit is never displayed either and they really try to swindle you with this, I constantly saw "family sized" or whatever packages that actually cost more per pound than the regular version when I did the math. So I'm not surprised.

Sylvartas ,

Respectfully, fuck that. The fascists have been hard at work moving the Overton window to their side. The left should be doing the same

Sylvartas ,

Well, "Talking about it everyday" seems to be the bare minimum

Sylvartas ,

As a fellow Turkish delight enjoyer, this thread has been eye opening.

I'm working on a theory: most commenters are probably American. Their sweets have so much sugar content over here that I'm starting to believe they don't like Turkish delights because they are somehow less sugary ?

Sylvartas ,

I know, but have you ever tasted a s'more or something like that ? Shit will give you a cavity after 2 bites

Sylvartas ,

Yeah. And it should be "un" because pipes are male in french. A piping ("tuyauterie") is female though !

Sylvartas ,

I like when my girl goes on top and when she takes some initiative, but I'm not necessarily submissive. What does that make me ?

Sylvartas ,

Most newer models that automatically make themselves available to all the devices connected to the network they are connected to, and manage the printer queue internally. Usually comes with a ton of shitty "features" e.g preventing you from printing black & white when you're out of yellow ink.
2-in-one scanner+printer machines are especially heinous with this, most of the ones I've used block you from scanning a document if you're out of any ink (yes, even when you're only trying to scan and not use the "copy" mode)

Somehow they found a way to make me miss having to boot the "printer PC" and wrangling windows' god awful printer queue system.

Sylvartas ,

The bad is starting to look more and more like an impending global societal collapse with every passing day though
