Software developer by day, insomniac by night.
I live in a small town, there’s not a lot of people about, and I don’t really go anywhere with public transit. I still mask up daily for my walkies with my dog. I haven’t gotten sick all year, and my overall respiratory health is better.
Don’t think I’ll stop masking anytime soon. I enjoy it.
I paid for the 4 screen 4k subscription for Netflix for ages, one of the reasons being that I could share my account with a good friend who was a student.
Then they decided to dictate who I can share with despite the fact that I’m paying for the ability to view on four screens simultaneously.
Now on the rare occasions I want to watch anything I find alternative ways.
I hadn’t heard of this. I was shocked to find out that unpasteurised milk could be sold to begin with, didn’t expect a second shock in the comments. Think I’m going to go back to just not touching social media for a while.
I really hated all the moaning about people calling out that both are shitty options. The Overton window is so far to the right. Like, yeah Harris is clearly the better option but neither represent any positive moves forward.
Aye. Famine is a failure in policy. Enough people in power have decided that these people should suffer and die.
I was brushing my teeth when reading this comment and inadvertently ended up swallowing all my toothpaste.
I feel like this is always the case for anyone with any sort of notoriety from the 1900s or before. If they were alive they were most likely racist Nazis.
My roomie is a trucker. He has laughed so much at the Tesla semitruck because it kind of fails at everything a truck is meant to do.
Respectfully, I don’t want to see any trains or buses made under his guidance.
Wasn’t he in hot water for corruption a while ago?
Wow I’d missed that. Honestly we need to throw out the entire parliament. They’re all broken.
Wait, they’re withholding security updates unless you pay? Hope they go bankrupt.
This. Let’s put the critique where it’s actually warranted. Being weird isn’t hurting anyone.
I’m really glad for you, that sounds amazing. I don’t think you’re the rule, though. I think you’re the exception. I also feel like it wouldn’t be unfeasible to have competitive/e-sports poker while still strictly regulating online casinos.
That explains why they all seem so samey. E.g. online casinos never have any sort of physical presence like scratch cards or what have you, even though we have plenty of scratch cards.
I’m honestly not surprised.
I used to hook up with a guy who was 100% convinced that he could game the system. It had something to do with break frequencies from various services and certain time windows for playing. He won sometimes, but he obviously didn’t talk much about his losses. He wasn’t a very happy person, and I think gambling offered an easy release.
That’s my big issue with gambling. It’s a business preying on addicts leaving many in financial ruin, and overall they do nothing for society at large. Here in Sweden it is regulated, but you honestly don’t notice it. There are so many internet casinos vanishing and cropping up on an almost daily basis. If you turn on the radio the adverts are like 40% online casinos, 40% sex toy sites, and 20% various services, like tyre shifting, glass repairs, etc.
That’s fair, this is one part of the story, and it’s not like screenshots can’t be doctored. Any screenshot taken from the web is ridiculously easy to manipulate.

Yikes. That sounds bad.
I’m a SysOps engineer at a fairly large online casino.
Okay all my sympathy is gone. Online casinos deserve to die.
That said, my feelings towards economic vampires aside, the way the events unfolded is concerning to say the least. Cloudflare has been racking up evil-corp points quite rapidly in recent months.
This is fantastic. That said, Mozilla should really reconsider their own CEO too.
Doesn’t matter. He did it.
