I got a Qidi for my first 3d printer about a year ago and honestly it's been pretty painless overall. The only time I really have trouble with it is when I go too long without cleaning the bed.
I'm running a pure gaming PC in my living room with Bazzite and I love it for that. In pretty much any other situation though it doesn't make much sense.
There is absolutely room for both approaches as they have substantially different end results.
The massive development cycle of something like RDR2 or Cyberpunk 2077 lead to an immersive experience that is less about quick fun and more about becoming a character within a world separate from your own. I know multiple people who play only games like this.
On the other hand, sometimes you just want a game that is all about the gameplay, no worrying about story, or lengthy, actionless experiences. Some people only want to play games like this and that's also totally fine.
You make it sound like they live on the moon. While there might be no easy "law abiding" way to get to them, this doesn't exactly sound like a law abiding conversation.
I'm 42 and uncircumcised, born and raised in America. My entire life the total sum of what it's amounted to from locker rooms to relationships is pretty close to "huh, ok then". I can't promise it will be the same for your son but it's been a total non-issue in my life.
I generally agree with you but my last two jobs transitioned to unlimited while I was there and the amount of time I took off was not impacted at either. Both of these jobs were client focused billable time types of jobs so I do think that has something to do with it, as long as I'm hitting my billable targets and contribution goals they don't care how much time I have off really. I once took December off at the end of a super busy year.
But people are more than 7" thick. It depends on how you interpret it I guess, I read it as moving 7" in any direction which means you'll still overlap with your own body, but if you read it as there being a 7" gap between where you were and where you are now then it would work.
In absolute terms you're right that Democrats aren't the left but we're not in an absolute situation, we're in a relative situation. Until someone comes up with a plan to actually get sufficient support for a new party or ranked choice voting we're going to remain in this situation where Democrats are the only real option to the "left" of Republicans.
I completely agree about Mamdani, first good thing to happen to the Democratic party in a long time! Which is why it's so telling to see how mad they are about it.
On a related note, thank you for the reasonable and well thought out response. All the best to you my friend.
I can't speak for everyone but for me personally I'm less angry about the whole "both sides are the same" argument than I am about the total lack of a plan over what to do about it. I agree with what you just said but it gets really old hearing it from people who seemingly think that simply saying the line is enough to actually effect change. Absent of a plan it really feels more like a conspiracy to divide the left than a path towards real change.
Fuck man this is hilarious. I just want to share with everyone but I don't know anyone who would get it so instead I'm just gonna sit here chuckling to myself about it.
Hey! I actually agree with everything you said so that's kind of fun for us! The big problem I see is that the people who decided to make a stand in the last election really had to plan to ensure group buy in so there was no real path to success, just moral high ground for those that refused to vote for more of the same.
Assuming that it's not too late at this point we need real leaders with a real plan to get real people behind a movement for change. If the next four years end in a vote that ushers in change with first destabilizing the entire world then I'll happily admit I was wrong but my fear and the fear of most everyone else who voted for Harris despite it being more of the same is that we won't get a chance for real change without a full on coup now that Trump is in control again.
Yeah, that would be a good argument if it wasn't a blatant case of emotional manipulation and a poor metaphor on top of that.
Like it or not your life comes with responsibilities, one of those responsibilities are to those around you. Your gun to the head metaphor implies that you are the only part impacted by the consequences of your actions, but that's obviously not the case here. If you imagine 100 gunmen have guns to 100 people's heads and then tell on the them to start marching or else they all get shot, then it would at least be a little closer. I can understand and even sympathize with the unfortunate situation the marcher is put in but that doesn't mean he still won't receive some of the blame when he decides for the entire group that enough is enough and he'd rather just end the whole thing then and there.
I think this is what the rest of us see as the core of the problem and what you all seem unwilling to see; refusing to vote for the lesser of two evils is inherently selfish, even if it is understandable.
My situation exactly. I get pissed off thinking about how unaffordable everything is for the majority of people right now.
Nice! Don't see nearly enough Venture Bro's references out in the world
Butterfly reference or Venture Brothers reference?

Is this from something or do you just wander through life dropping awesome prose like this?
1-800-OKFACE!? THAT'S NOT EVEN THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF NUMBERS!

Hopefully the Cardinals can get some more offense moving and really shut them down!
