  • If you launch the game outside steam the time isn't accounted for. I know this because I love playing Timespinner with a randomizer. Inside steam I have 40h of played time. If the timer counted my randomizer sessions I'd have at least 4x that

  • Insect armageddon has happened way faster than anyone thought

    I remember as a kid (I'm currently in my late 40s) that the world was full of bugs. Many, many tipes of mosquitos, beetles, praying mantis, ladybugs, ants, cicadas. You rode in a car at night and the windshield would be splattered by bugs every 30s. Nowadays I barely see any around.

    EDIT: the exception seems to be cockroaches. Those never went away.

  • Meus manos tugas, por favor não elejam um clone de Bolsonaro/Trump/Orban, evitem essa dor de cabeça. Governos de extrema-direita tendem a corroer/destruir todas as instituições por dentro e podem ser difíceis de retirar do poder depois

  • Trump is reportedly taking aim at Canada and raising alarms about its ‘vulnerability’

    Jump

  • US has over 2000 fighter jets. In hand.

    And they can't deploy them all at the same time on the same target, unless they risk being vulnerable elsewhere

  • ‘He hoped Trump’s help would arrive’: why protesters in Iran feel betrayed

    Jump

  • The 38-year-old father

    Not old enough to remember Mosaddegh, it seems. But I thought iranians studied their own history in school, looks like this guy skipped lots of history classes.

  • 75% of Americans oppose US attempting to take control of Greenland, CNN poll finds

    Jump

  • Don't atribute malice where stupidity fits. It's quite probable that a sizable chunk of those 25% didn't even understood the question.

    Jump

  • All these involve learning and maintaining skills more removed from power than skills of more industrial professions (monotonous work).

    I tend to disagree. There is something gratifying in making something with your own hands/tools. I could buy a table, or a drawer, or a pre-built computer. But I kinda enjoy making/assembling mine own. There are other people out there that enjoy gardening, and plenty other "monotonous work".

  • If two guys are hanging out and one says “hey I think I think I should take more drugs” and the other says “hell yeah brother do it” they aren’t responsible if the first guy ODs

    They are indirectly responsible. Dangerously close, depending on circumstances, of being criminally responsible.

  • No, I actually loved her at first. Then it turned out she only ever wanted me for money.

    Sad to hear that. I hope you meet someone better in the future

  • You can reach 1 million in assets over a decade or so as a middle class worker.

    This might be true in a rich 1st world country. For a small subset of "middle class worker", most live paycheck to paycheck, barely scraping by.

  • Capitalism, when unchecked, tends to create those giant monopolies you've mentioned. It is capitalism at its end game, total consolidation.

  • I only browsed to see if using “services” would be cheaper than the upkeep on my ex was. It would be.

    This is quite the misogynistic take, dude. Did you marry only to fuck someone? People usually marry for many reasons beyond just sex. Love, companionship, shared dreams.
