I actually still like some LTT videos. I just find the thumbnails off-putting … so unless the topic interests me I don’t typically watch anymore.

I really enjoyed the Emily/Anthony bits too.

I hate the Steam Deck! /s

I mean, I’m half joking but I used to sleep in bed and now I waste like 2-3 hours on Balatro instead of falling asleep at an appropriate hour.

I think a lot of these “cab companies” use the tips to pay the drivers now and take more for themselves.

I just bought it based on this alone. Early-access and FPS games aren’t typically my thing, but I like the cut of this person’s jib.

I wonder how his listeners can keep hearing this same message for years?

Crash Course too!

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBDA2E52FB1EF80C9 - Crash Course World History was one of my favourites.

Yup. I’ve just been purchasing games without the Verified tag now because I’ll just be like: “yeah that seems like it’d work and it typically does”.

I made the mistake of installing Stardew Valley on it for 1.6. Oof, I’m playing it everywhere. Very bad when you can’t handle your addictions well.

Yup, I didn’t buy the Steam Deck to do 4K ray tracing at 120FPS. I bought it so I can pick up any Steam Deck Verified game and play it without relative issue. Being able to suspend the game immediately and just knowing things work beats fiddling with Windows on a handheld.

“some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses”

Not really new but probably not that popular for everyone. It seems it was coined in 2010: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_pattern. In the web dev space I was using it like 8-9 years ago, more or less.

What is it about all these rich people that need to do this type of stuff? Consensual stuff too boring for these guys now?

I’ve had to remove a lot of recommendations. Man, PragerU, Crowder, Shapiro and Joe Rogan were in my feeds. Jeez.

Definitely struck a chord with him 👀

I’m too tired to look it up, but I remember someone saying that resilience or grit was one of the best indicators of success. Someone replied that actually the best indicator of success is if you came from wealth.

A few months ago my director started discussions on return to office mandates. No one else really paid any attention.

I went in today and nobody is here, including my director. I don’t think anyone thinks the commute is worth the value they’re pitching.

I should have slept in an extra two hours.

I have a reminder to cancel Amazon Prime in a month. I never really used the TV portion until a few months ago and was like, fine … the selection sucks but it’s alright. After they introduced the ads now, it’s unusable to me. I’m getting rid of it entirely and not rewarding this type of behaviour.

These are the same people that abuse tax loopholes and lobby and shit. I don’t pirate but I don’t give two shit’s on their holier than thou tone.

I’d be riding an ebike right now, if I knew how I could park it safely :/ do you typically bring it with you?

I think it’s 'cause we know more about him. I think if we knew he was a whimsical dude and legitimately trying to help people instead of enriching himself, we’d see these pics and give him a bit more of a pass.
