Have you seen Elysium?
Yeah…pretty much that. In some form or another. It won’t necessarily be the wealthy people blasting off to a space station, more likely just hiding away on luxury islands while the rest of the world continues to go to shit.

The OG Playstation had, by far, the biggest collection of games that I consider my favourites.


Weren’t expecting what?
Choice?…A succulent collection of choice?


What’s to stop them from just going a generation back and using DDR4 instead of DDR5.
There is no one who can convince me that it makes any noticeable difference anyway. When I was putting together a new/used desktop I specifically looked for DDR4 for precisely that reason and I would take any bet that a performance hit would be measured in numbers too small for any user to even notice.
Constantly needing newer hardware with only fractional improvements is the biggest scam in tech. They took their lesson from Apple and Samsung.


When I was a teenager and I liked a girl, I’d do everything I could to impress her.
I can’t even count the number of bands I was suddenly “into” because the woman I was interested in at the time mentioned them in passing. 😂


silly 4th grader
Silly would have been the nice way to put it. I fully admit that I was a absolute ass-hole child.


I feel bad for the civilian, of course. But there’s no way I could blame the female cop if she was the one who shot him. He literally snuck up behind her in the middle of an active situation. My instinct would have been to immediately fire as well.


I was using “you” in the royal-sense; as in “anyone” or “oneself”. Didn’t mean to imply that you specificially do that. I apologize if it came across that way.


Alberta incel shithead.


To each their own I supposed. But I firmly believe you retain more knowledge, the more senses that you use when learning.
If I’m reading the material (sight), highlighting the notes (touch), and listenting to the prof (sound), I’m triggering more synapses and as a result hold more of the information in.
Letting an A.I. summarize it for you, or just recording in on a laptop voice-to-text while zoning out for the hour of that class, is completely useless because you don’t actually learn anything except how to ask the computer for the answer.


Your country is being run by a man who behaves like I behaved in fourth grade when I didn’t want to admit I hadn’t done my homework and just compounded lie upon lie upon lie hoping to outlast the teachers somehow.
For the record, I was a total shit-head in fourth grade. I was ducking and weaving, adding more lies to the narrative (even going as far as blaming my sister for stealing it, and STILL not backing down when they brought her in to call my bluff). Somehow, my idiot brain just thought that if I kept spinning out more and more convoluted webs of bullshit, it would eventually hit the magical “they believe me” mark.
Here’s the thing though…I was in FOURTH GRADE and I GREW OUT OF IT! What the fuck is Trump’s excuse?


Is this actually a legitimate question they’re asking?
It’s the most obvious answer on earth. The people making the laws don’t work for the voters anymore. They vote for the donors.


Going to university in the late 90s/early 00s, when not everyone had home computers and especially not laptops. We had the computer lab in the basement where were could go to print out essays, do research, etc.
There was the library as well with a few computers on each floor, but those were always taken, and lab access came with our tuition anyway.
Other than that and a rather simple cellphone, we were device free. We still took notes by hand, copiously highlighted lines in ridiculously overpriced text books, met with friends at the coffee shop to study, and essentially kept technology compartmentalised.
Do I miss it? Oh hell yes.


Arrest a bunch of random people with great fanfare in order to preserve the optics of his claim. Then quietly release them with no media attention because there’s obviously no evidence because it’s all clearly covering up for incompetence.
Here’s where that’s troubling…
It’s a very small step between releasing them and making them disappear so that they don’t talk to the media afterwards


That is a gorgeous guy. Love his coloring on his muzzle.


This is what happens when you have one side that sits back and plays some machiavellian chess, and another side that shits on a checker board and makes everyone roll around in it.
China is far from an honest actor, so don’t think I’m saying this as a compliment. But China knows when to shut up, sit back, and let the other guy fuck themselves over.


Thank you.
Dogs are what more people should aspire to be like. Non-judgemental, and just happy to be included.


The snoot print was a surprise from the company that handled the cremation. I knew they were taking a paw-print and I knew that I had ordered an upgraded urn that allowed me to post a photo in it. But I wasn’t expecting the nose-print.
When I pulled it out of the bag, I’ll be honest…it broke me all over again.


Serious question? Has there been any study into why the stats are higher there?
I’d be tempted to say it’s because giant trucks that cowboys tend to prefer have both a) lower pedestrian visibility, and b) higher mass, leading to greater damage in a collision with something soft and fleshy like a human.
However…I’m the first person to admit that correlation is not causation. Was just wondering if studies have been done.
