The problem is that sometimes it’s not your code that you’re debugging

I am now addicted to BitBurner and I blame you

Care to share what you use to do surveys for Amazon money? How long have you been doing it?

It’s not that my boss cares per se, but I still think people form a subconscious image of your work ethic, and I think it’s always better to be seen as a “hard worker” when it comes to promotion time

An ex gave me an old pair of her’s that she used for work and I’ve been a fan ever since

You realize that a comments section can have more than 1 discussion going on in it, right? It’s not a “distraction” to talk about something else or disagree with a part of someone’s comment.

The point being discussed is that this is a terrible law and an example of Mississippi being a shit hole

This is not the comment I replied to. The comment I replied to was essentially saying that MS and therefore the US are not worth visiting, and I think that’s silly.

“This is fine”

I didn’t say this. I actually agree with you that the MS law is terrible, but trying to push back on the general sentiment of the original comment I replied to: saying the US is the “worst” because of something that Mississippi does.

You’re actually arguing that the difference between being put to death and not is a “millimeter off the floor”? That is some privileged nonsense, frankly.

I agree that the US has problems, but hyperbolic doomerism is hardly conducive to changing any of that.

Do you personally view relationships that way? Transactional? In my experience there is a whole range of people when it comes to how much money matters to them, and seeing it as black and white is really limiting your options.

just go fuck yourself, how’s that?

This also seems incredibly dramatic

I’m not trying to say that the US is perfect, but do you honestly believe that the US is the “worst” place to be any of the things you listed?

There are plenty of places in the world you would be put to death for being gay. Try asking an immigrant from literally any of those countries if they prefer the US and get back to me.

Brother, these are super bizarre examples, and do not match my experience as a man whatsoever.

My past partners (and current too) absolutely would drive me to the hospital, even those with whom I just had a casual and completely financially independent relationship with. I even had an experience pretty similar to this in the past.

How does your world view account for relationships where the woman makes more money than the man?

Seems like somebody hurt you.

the worst country

This seems a little dramatic

Edit: lol downvoted for mildly pushing back against the idea that the US is the worst of the ~200 other countries in the world. Never change, Lemmy.

Those hoo- sorry… who don’t know already will never understand

I’m curious, how did you find out about and start using Lemmy? Most folks on Reddit when the API fiasco was happening acted like you needed to be a tech god to even sign up, so I’m curious if you felt intimidated at all?

His stake in his “media” company is (nonsensically) still worth billions of dollars right now. He probably won’t be able to cash all of that out if he wanted to, but he is definitely not broke.

Anything in particular help you shift away from that?

Maybe one day I’ll get there too, but not today

Maybe I couldn’t find it somewhere online, but is there a structured development roadmap for features you plan to implement? If not, what are the top priorities going forward? What are your long term goals with the project?

On top of that, the Lemmy user base consists mainly of left wing people and tech power users currently. Not a bad thing for me, but it does make me wonder about how effective it will be at attracting a larger user base; I personally think Lemmy needs to simplify/streamline/modernize its default UI/UX and sign up process to something more people are familiar with, but I’ve gotten a lot of pushback when I bring that up

join-lemmy.org needs some serious work if it’s really what people are going to link when others ask about it; it’s really no wonder that we’ve mostly only amassed technical folks. I also think the default UI/UX could use a lot of work to bring it up to standards with other modern social sites. I wish that would be a priority for the devs, but I know they only have so much time to devote to things
