It’s a surprisingly useless skill in the modern day if you have a digital watch. Most people just use their phone or a smart watch and those show time with plain digits so there’s no interpretation. I forgot how to read an analogue clock face for the longest time, bought a classic watch recently and have picked up the skill again but if I didn’t then I’d never use it and I’d forget it again. Despite what some people think not all skills are unforgettable, it’s just a matter of how useful it is day to day over a long period.

This is neat, but I’m still waiting for pkpass support. It’s so annoying apple has a standard format for passes and google doesn’t and also doesn’t bother to support them even though their more widely used.

I don’t think any democracy where the will of the majority can be overruled is sustainable.

I don’t think vote to obscurity can apply here. Trump will always have a platform because he is a living engagement machine and that drives the Internet mad. He wins he’s the top story, he loses he’s the top story, he gets convicted he’s the top story. The man is immortal in the worst way possible and the world is basically f*cked.

I’m still amazed judges are so clearly divided into groups. I consider being a judge to require a degree of impartiality and authority that anyone clearly identifying as democratic or republican should be disqualified for. Democratic perhaps not since their more centric than left leaning or far left :/. Point being the one occupation that mandates impartiality is highly politicised. Of course everything is f*cked. The rule of law is not dictated by the majority or enforced by the trustworthy.

We shot it with a lightning bolt and then some weird sh*t started happening. /s.

I feel like mandating a certain number of years in some managerial governmental position would be more effective. Trump is basically a living example of how to get around that. Honestly a lot of democracy kinda assumes people elect competent and honest leaders and a lot of humanity are just brainwashed morons so we’re stuck with what we got :/.

Honestly, too much content not enough time. That and I think a lot of what’s available now isn’t as good as it used to be (I realise that’s probably nostalgia more than anything else). I read manga a lot more now. I find it easier to do, and it generally gets to the point a lot quicker than anime. There’s also a lot more great manga than there is great anime simply because it’s cheaper to make and distribute and less prone to padding things out to reach a predefined length. Vagabond for example would be the best anime ever… if any studio could adapt it. I watch more western live action stuff, it’s cookie cutter at times but easier to consume while focusing on other things (since it’s English, Japanese anime I need to actively focus on subs (I wont dignify dubbed with a mention XD)). I used to watch j-dramas but dropped that now as well as I find it hard to find stuff that interests me. I’ve watched a couple k-dramas just cause I find them a refreshing change of pace.

I will say now I’m an adult its really hard to find the time to just stop and watch things. I legit miss burning through all my afternoons watching naruto and the chunin exam or the pain arc. That sh*t defined my childhood and I’ll always love it, even if I’m not liable to do it again soon.

Huh, maybe. Although my point was more batman is part of that class (albeit begrudgingly) so expecting batman in a position of great power and influence to actively take that from other people is just very hypocritical. Not that he shouldn’t (or someone shouldn’t). Just a very weird position.

You’re aware he is a CEO of a company?

It’s amazing how almost every job not in the government already acknowledges and penalises this as a crime. But because these folks actually instate the rules they have to follow their somehow exempt from the same standards.

You’re assuming that the cops percieve you as a threat and are guaranteed to kill you no matter what you do. I won’t deny that’s happened but its very far from the norm. In a lot of cases the cops are stupid, or negligent or scared and prematurely react without foresight. Add a civillian possessing a gun and and flagrantly threatening to use it and you turn a situation that could be disarmed into a inevitable violent conflict.

Most people don’t wanna kill each other. And shooting back is probably going to raise the likelihood of getting murdered (i don’t have any source for this). That said it is still absurd how the police flagrantly disregard peoples liberties, extra judicially execute them and get away with it with impunity. The societal contract is dead.

I take offence to this. We duel at dawn! /s

Wayne. Was that you? /s

I’d say just sell it. I think the thought that you’re selling means someone else is losing is the issue here, you’re not convincing anyone to buy. you’re not spreading"the scam". If that person wants to buy bitcoin their gonna do it with or without your selling. May as well give them what they want and benefit yourself intern. I have this same sorta gripe with epic games weekly free giveaway on Thursdays. I know it’s just to harvest data, I know I’m never gonna buy anything on EGS, I know some poor schmuck is compensating for my free game by buying microtransactiojs on fortnight. But end of the day it’s free games and me not buying it ain’t exactly gonna stop epic doing all that other sh*t they use to make them available. Take what you can. It’ll be better for your mental health to not anguish over what to do.

Cyberpunk 2077 (with phantom liberty)

This hurts to read :-(.

Uh, yes, definitely. A lot of guys would like this.

You mean a doctor who box? Not one that doesn’t smell like a public lavatory.
