And what do those things cost somewhere that isn’t using the dumb member card system?

You’re not getting a deal, non-catdholders are getting shafted while you pat yourself on the back and the store sells shockingly detailed data about you.

Missed the part where they said “with your local area code” huh.

Well, file taxes and tell us how that went. Because if you didn’t keep the receipts as a record of the exact amount and proof of those donations, you don’t get to submit them for a tax break. Vibes and memories don’t cut it for tax deductions.

So yeah the customer technically gets that tax break, but its more work than it’s worth to actually claim it.

So you didn’t actually watch past that first five minutes, then, to the part where he talks about how LNT completely breaks at low dose levels and shows, with multiple sources, how low doses actually correlate with lower cancer rates than even baseline no-dose groups.

Tell me you didn’t watch the video without telling me.

It literally addresses Japanese cancer rates and the correlation with radiation doses.

What we know is that in every situation where that data IS available, people handle it well. What you’re saying is “but what if there’s a mystery variable that we have no evidence of that would make it a disaster.”

Even if you had heard of it, an overwatch copycat is hardly a premise to grip the attention of the masses.

Pick which one to save and which one to sacrifice. Smash the sacrifice with a hammer to free the other, break them both and realize this is just so like you and every single thing you try to do starts with a half baked plan, then goes off the rails and ruins everything until you’ve nothing to do but pick up the pieces.

It’s not even necessarily that people can’t afford the space, it’s just that the space is being required in the first place. Being able to afford it is just one facet of why I’m not setting aside a whole room for VR.

If the primary benefit was reduced electricity usage, then that’s not a function of crypto mining, that’s just less heating. You would get the exact same results with an electric heater maintaining the same temperatures. You have demonstrated that turning the heat down by a few degrees can save a noticeable amount of money.

You got some crypto out of it, about $13.50 worth, at the cost of whatever wear and tear and reduction in life your computer systems may have suffered, but in the end all you did was just put in a whole lot of effort to turn down the thermostat.

If I wanted to interact with AI content I would be on Reddit.

“Join us at the jihad rally as we assist @ICEgov in deportation efforts,”

They really don’t even see the problem do they.

I also don’t like that I’m not doing the things I should be doing. Yes, I absolutely do see that those things need to be done, no I don’t think someone else is going to do them. Yes, I wish I would just get up and get it done too.

Fortunately I absolutely get to refuse service to anyone giving me that kind of condescending attitude.

Hotel.

I plan to go to work like it’s any other day, including not getting any holiday pay. I will try not to roll my eyes as customers tell me it sucks I have to work, even while they themselves are the reason I have to work.

A big part of the problem hasn’t been the engine. The problem has been that games that made the fact that they were using Unreal Engine 5 a core part of their marketing did so because they had fuckall else worth saying, tying perception of the engine to a bunch of truly mid games.

Alaska has Ranked Choice voting.

The existence of other candidates is not the same thing as any of them having the slimmest chance in hell of winning, and the way our cursed voting system works, they’re going to end up drawing votes away from the “major” candidate that most closely aligns with them. As a result, the “major” candidate they most oppose has one less vote they need to overcome. That means that until and unless a 3rd party candidate manages to completely overshadow one of the major political parties, which is effectively never going to happen, a 3rd party vote is just one more vote your most opposed candidate doesn’t need to beat.

And no, 3rd parties are not going to overshadow the major parties. It’s just not going to happen. Look at the absolute dogshit circus that is Trump, look at how many lifelong Republicans have vowed to never vote for him, how he’s absolutely obliterated any little shred of legitimacy the GOP had as a governing party. Now recognize that with that utterly weakened, vulnerable position, that best chance ever, no 3rd party has managed to even come close to unseating them as one of the inevitable 2 contenders. If it hasn’t happened now, it won’t happen ever, not with FPTP voting.

No, Salvation Army can get fucked. You couldn’t pay me to shop there.
