lol when I went vegan I used a lot of meat substitutes to get me over it. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good though!

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

I love the 24 hour clock and living in London, UK I used it all the time. However, I remember one time I bought movie tickets at lunch for 17:30 and my brain thought it was for 7:30pm and I called my friend at the last moment saying: “you have to leave work early if we’re gonna make it!”

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

I feel like an idiot. I read “bear” and tilted my phone and squinted and all that. Time to go sleep.

I mean … I saw that for some reason when I logged into Windows 11 yesterday it had the NBA score in the bottom left. Who the hell asked if I wanted that?

Went back to my Linux/Mint box as I rarely use my windows one but that pissed me right off.

How much of that is the NHS getting now? /s

Phind.com is pretty good for programming stuff, it’s AI but it cites it’s sources.

“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?

Urgh, it makes me wonder why people do videos like this and think that Poilievre is going to be able to “fix” all this.

Then again, yeah, if it’s propaganda it’s just about sowing doubt.

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 👀

You’re absolutely right. I was trying to get what I hoped was the salient point out of the person’s post.

I knew a few guys in Europe I think maybe Austrian or something where they came from lots of money but went to school with “others” and they seemed pretty well-adjusted. Although, they have a lot of the other advantages that you’ve listed as well.

I think making the rich mingle with the normal people more would be beneficial. It’s harder to dehumanize the poor when you’ve met them. Can’t call them lazy or stupid and just not “wanting” it enough when you see them work as hard as you and not getting as far.

Although, I think the way things are it’ll never happen though. Nepo babies would dodge everything even if something like this were to occur.

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.

Bullshit. I’ve seen Pulp Fiction and I’ve never noticed that.
