  • Now that it's Christmas Eve, what are you all planning to do for either Christmas or Christmas Eve?

    Jump

  • I’ve taken my partner and kids interstate to see family we haven’t seen in 2 1/2 years, whilst bushfires are burning not far from our home.

    We’re due to fly back on Boxing Day, and not sure what we’re going back to yet.

    I’m putting on a brave face for our kiddos, especially our 4 year old who is really into Christmas this year, but we’re terrified what things look like in a couple days.

  • To be fair, Daytime Me is no saint, either

  • It’s easy to lose an entire night to Terraria

  • NSFW

    what's the difference between classism and racism?

    Jump

  • I have to ask, are you trying to be obtuse? I can’t tell if you’re aware of what class war is but pretending not to, or if you are just looking to kick start a bad faith argument?

  • Endorphins

    Jump

  • Absolutely. A very nice chili for sweetness.

    Last time my parents visited us my mum had some smoked jalapeno sauce because “it looked like we were enjoying it so much”, and afterwards she thought we were trying to kill her.

    My dad just said something like “no thank you, I’ve seen people eat those things on the footy show. Stupid.”

    Jump

  • My parents think a jalapeno-based sauce will kill you, and they refuse to believe there even exists anything hotter than that.

  • What do you like most about the Christmas season?

    Jump

  • Seeing how excited my kids get. If it wasn’t for that, it’s just an extra busy time of year.

  • Recommendations Needed! Looking for some lesser known comics to read.

    Jump

  • I think you’re going to have to dig into the wayback machine (because I don’t think they’re actively hosted anywhere anymore?), but Nothing Nice To Say by Mitch Clem was a great punk rock web comic from the 2000s.

  • Beethoven

    Jump

  • It looks like it’s 3 letters. Deafass? Never heard that before.

  • What are the rules of using the toilet in school in different countries?

    Jump

  • You had to ask permission, but only so you could be given a toilet pass - this was so if any other teachers or staff saw you walking around you had evidence that you were allowed to be out of class.

  • Worst Bug Ever, Literally Unusable Linux Distro [Video]

    Jump

  • It absolutely doesn’t work when 98% of content creators out there use this type of graphic unironically.

    It just adds on to the list of videos to avoid, so they’ve achieved that.

  • Interesting distro to try, or to try again

    Jump

  • Void is one I’ve often thought I’d like to try if I had time to dig into it.

  • Can anyone help me understand why Hasan Piker is so popular in leftist political spaces despite his immense privilege?

    Jump

  • I only see one person who questioned if you were trolling. And the response you’ve largely gotten are because people don’t agree with your point of view.

    It’s good to have advocates in positions of privilege. If we were all to rely on someone like yourself to try and change hearts and minds, how quickly and widespread can you move that message and get people to understand the plight of workers? Not as quickly as someone with privilege and influence who can help with that.

    I don’t know this guy or his politics, just examining this discussion and (as with the other responses you’ve gotten) not really sure where you’re coming from with this. You said yourself your co-workers listen to this guy all day, you can see that kind of thing is important right? (If it’s the right message he is pushing of course)

  • IT'S DECEMBER!!! CHRISTMAS SONG LIST TIME!!!

    Jump

  • So what holiday projects are we all working on?

    Jump

  • Free standing clothes shelf. Four shelves and some pegs for hanging shirts. My partner needs more space in the wardrobe.

    Also need to finish making a small play table for the kids that I started 2 years ago. I didn’t have the tools I need to flatten it properly, but it’s still sitting there.

    Then I’m mostly going to be just looking at doing some home repairs since I’m out of work for a little while. Back verandah is rotting and could use some reinforcing.

  • New TV

    Jump

  • We still have a fair bit of 360p content, it looks awful on the 4K tv in our lounge room.

    On our old 32” 1080p screen in our back room it looks just fine. So we’ve been watching different content in different rooms 🙄

  • Should one give money directly to homeless people?

    Jump

  • Are you serious dude? Fuck me.

  • Should one give money directly to homeless people?

    Jump

  • Yes of course. And if they go spend it on a pack of chips or coffee from the 7-11, that might be just what they needed to get through the next few hours.

    Only they know what they need right then and there, and I hope we’re past the condescension of people refusing to give money but offering some food item they believe the person would benefit from (because “if I give money they’ll just waste it”).

    Sometimes they might want to talk if you can spare some time too, to break the social exclusion they’re feeling.

    And they might not be appreciative, or they may have a as bad attitude, that’s the way it goes. They’re dispossessed, they’re looked down on, and they could be sleeping on the side of the road on a rainy night wondering how long they’ve got left. They may have lost families. They may not have it in them to say “thanks mate”.

  • Drake Claims Universal Music and Spotify ‘Artificially Inflated’ Kendrick Lamar’s Numbers for ‘Not Like Us’ Diss Track

  • “UMG did not rely on chance, or even ordinary business practices,” the petition continues. “It instead launched a campaign to manipulate and saturate the streaming services and airwaves.”

    A music conglomerate like UMG would never do anything to saturate the market. Never.
