I'm suddenly reminded of when people used to give out doge coins as a meme

I mostly agree with you, except that The Pirate Bay is mostly regarded as risky for software. https://rentry.co/megathread-all-purpose under "untrustworthy websites".
The only LG phone I ever had, it just randomly decided to not boot one day. Apparently it was a common issue, and they were not giving any refunds, at least when I asked. I swore off of LG then, and I wouldn't be surprised if many other people did as well.
I think the phone was the LG G4: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LG_smartphone_bootloop_issues
Hold on, I'm not familiar with Star citizen, but do you have to spend real money to get ships in this game?
The MISC Hull C added with the Alpha 3.20 update costs an eye-watering $500
Too relevant, given that uptobox shut down yesterday and alldebrid torrents don't work right now
Even as someone living on the east coast of the US, I'm always surprised when I visit the Midwest and Central US to see just how much "nothing" there is. At least compared to the relative density of driving up and down the northeast corridor
Maybe I'm the odd one out, but I've never felt like moving to a different country to work. I can barely imagine moving from the east coast to the west coast. Perhaps I'm missing something, but never once have I visited a place and said, "I would love to spend 8 hours of my life every day in an office here."
But I am at the ripe old age of 30, so maybe I'm past that demographic
I was with you until you said diablo 3 had one of the most compelling stories. I don't think diablo games in general are good at storytelling. But I do agree with you that the d4 story kinda sucked
I think the original FIRE was much more radical- basically the plan is to save up only like 700k or so, move to a low cost of living area, spend less than 20k a year, and try to live off of stock increases and interest.
But honestly that life sounds kinda shitty, so people stopped talking about FIRE what all the other conditions and it just became more "save, invest, retire eventually"
If they pay me more to go back into office, then I'll take the trade if the money is high enough. Everything has a price, as they say. But it better be worth all the extra shit you have to deal with, least of all being the sick people at the office. I haven't gotten sick since COVID started basically
That makes me think- will the AI see a kid that's about to run out from behind a parked car? As a human, if I see a kid run from the house into a row of parked cars, I know he's still there and will slow down before I get there. But would self driving make that same leap of logic? I'm not sure what the range and capabilities of self driving cars are right now in terms of scanning, but hopefully it would be smart enough to take preventative measures
On a tangent, and nothing to do with you, but I don't like how these streaming companies are being called "streamers". Streamers are those people streaming on twitch, not a company like Netflix damnit.
