with the exception of an intense obsession with TABS for a few months, i otherwise haven't bought a new video game since 2006 unless it was gifted to me; tend to just play old games

i feel like if people feel the need to physically fight in the workplace they're completely missing the point to why that workplace exists

criminalizing free rides and shelter is not just infringing on the divine right to voluntary association, but doing so beyond the scope of commerce - one would wonder if that's even constitutional

Judaism doesn't forbid interest, but Christianity used to...

judaism has mandatory debt forgiveness after a certain number of years. 7 and/or 49 i think.

iirc in sharia banking the bank buys x and you buy x from the bank at a certain markup and pay back the bank over some agreed upon period of time, possibly with some collateral involved in the deal

so on one hand the bank still makes money, but on the other hand you don't see that out-of-control compounding interest that plagues american debtors

Dey claim if you don't choose, den dey all will follow you around disney

it logically follows that the best option is not to choose

kamala harris is an interesting politician. sometimes she can be a highly effective storyteller, and other times she just sounds like a markov text generator. this occasion is the latter.

edit: it looks like someone beat me to it.

sonic cd was pure audiovisual vibes, in a league of its own

American history is pretty bad, though probably worse in the south.

ap us history was pretty well executed at my high school; taking it was a bit if a masochistic rite of passage for the student body's overachievers. i was still citing the textbook for tangential filler i pulled from it in my american lit term papers in undergrad.

i was wondering why anyone would buy btc while interest rates are going up but i guess instability in the banking sector is reasonable justification granted they're moving it to cold storage rather than letting it sit on an exchange

If you've ever seen internet comedians or shitposters get modded or suspended, they just devolve into an incoherent "shit fuck ass, ban me, pussies!" mode out of frustration when they get back. This is likely what we're seeing.

it's become an art form on 4chan

i disagree with him at times but i don't dislike him, and i respect his posting enough to not ignore him, so i guess it can be concluded that i think he's an okay fellow despite apparently being controversial here

night owl here, i prefer darker mornings so i don't feel bad when i stay up all night and go to sleep in the morning

also dark mornings are a vibe and early evenings are a downer

he's right though

she's attractive but her aura is discomforting

^see now thats my point. Its manageable to live in the hood if youre a nice guy, you keep your nose clean, and you stay connected with the boys running the block.

nobody likes "the boys running the block." nobody.

their imaginary games cause loud and violent disturbances in residential areas that make everyone fear for their safety, cause property damage, and exacerbate the already ridiculous amount of police patrolling in the area to suppress their activity, never mind a loss of life once in a blue moon that reflects poorly on an area already plagued with "non-organized" crime and other recklessness. the resident ex-og at the heart of the community has an unwritten minimum age requirement of 30 to keep them out of his bar.

Im a loner type personality and my previous dating experiences have been pretty bad.

i haven't been called an incel because of my choice to stop dating though

the world might be a better place if all politicians were engineers

while the motivation was nominally to restore investor/consumer confidence, it should be noted that many/most of the major banks were shareholders of the federal reserve; the fed controls monetary creation, also influences funding or at least lending rates for federal budget among other things

insolvent banks means restricted lending, restricted lending where fractional lending is the source of money likely means hyperdeflation, all hell breaks loose macroeconomically i presume

i could be wrong though; @Questionmarktarius probably knows far more about this than me

with that said, yeah, those ads were hella sexist and i don't throw that word around lightly

not the hood per se but there are definitely hood shenanigans from time to time, esp by unruly youth; it's frustrating but ultimately manageable

i'll move out if/when i'm really rich or start a family, whichever comes first

i disagree

ai will replace "content creators" but there will always be a place for artists

You should not replace anything with chatGPT.

i'm a very busy fellow who found myself at occupied by wedding festivities for a good friend and lacking access to a laptop, so i got on my phone and requested chatgpt to generate boilerplate code for me to later review, test, and integrate into my work when i got home

it's not a replacement, but it's one hell of an asset

with that said, google's become trash over the years and deserves to be replaced

threw up from an accidental interaction between a supplement and a couple beers last year

can't make me use bing, i just use vanilla chatgpt.
