Fair, but I think given the intention of the study being discussed, my comment is still pretty valid. 😁

Turns out humans are one of those animals that don’t breed well in captivity, and alot of us are starting to realize we’re captives.
He was in the US military and now has the nickname ‘Cheese’ from his grandchild to be known by instead of the mentally abortive attempt his squad gave him?
Dude, take the win and don’t complain. There’s definitely worse things to be known as.
The same thing a cat would do. Look at them both, give a slow blink, then stand up and walk away to go do my own thing.

This feels like a comic about invisible disability.
I feel a little more seen now.

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•Planning on buying a SteamDeck. What should I know before purchasing?
5·5 months agoPower brick, USB-C cable, external battery, earbud headphones.
Sometimes I also add a folding bluetooth keyboard, mini bluetooth mouse, and USB drives, but that’s only when I’m gonna use the Deck as a computer for 3D modeling or typing tasks.

4·5 months agoI have nothing against the original, I used it for a few months and it works great. I switched to a different case when I got a different charger and other cords to use with the external battery I added to the ‘entourage’ for the Deck. The original case didn’t have the room for all that, and things like earbuds didn’t like to stay in the elastic hollow of the original. Wasn’t a big deal, but it was a noticeable change after switching cases.

Gaming@beehaw.org•I have about 55 hours of flights coming up. I’m thinking about the deus ex collection. Any thoughts?
7·6 months agoI loved Deus Ex Human Revolution, it was my intro to the series and still one of my favs. I woild also recommend something a little more sandbox, like Minecraft or Lightyear Frontier, just for the sheer time sink these games can be. Farming and building can make you lose track of hours at a time, great for travel.
I could also recommend something like Be my Hoard. Trying to get over an hour on a run is a fun way to burn an hour, if you like rouge-lite styles.
If you like driving, something like American Truck Simulator or Euro Truck Simulator is another great time sink.

Solving percents. I use this to predict gross and net of my paychecks when I do my budget.
Net X ------ = ------ Gross 100 (GrossX) = (Net × 100) GrossX ÷ (Net × 100) = X Example; 200 X ------ = ------- 250 100 Step A 200 × 100 = 20000 Now 250X = 20000 Step B 20000÷250=80 Therefore X=80 Also expressed as 80% of 250 = 200.It’s also kinda handy when figuring out sales and stuff at the store, sometimes.
Friend, your guild idea already exists. It’s just called a Union in the current day. Many trades already operate this way, from the Carpenters Union to the Iron Workers Union. There’s even a Teamsters Union. The different name doesn’t change the work they do. White- collar hand much less representation with collective solidarity, but that can be fixed by starting a Union at your local work place. I won’t tell anyone it’s easy, but it’s worth putting in the work. A great example is the Starbucks unions that have popped up in the last few years. The reason you don’t see more unions is because employers are terrified of them, and want to continue to freely exploit the workforce through fear.
While I agree with getting rid of at-will policies, I disagree with one part of your idea. Why would I ever want to indenture myself to 5 years with the same employer? How would unions be handled? How about strikes? What about health insurance benefits?
Frankly, unions already solve alot of the problems with at-will employment, and should be protected by law rather then systemically stripped away.

1·8 months agoOf course he is, and just like Palpatine, he will attempt to create laws and organizations that benefit himself. Especially if he feels he can twist the existing ones to suit this purpose.

2·8 months agoI’m not deluded or ignorant, I’m well aware such a thing wouldn’t stop the dictatorial asshat. I’m only pointing out that from a legal perspective, this wouldn’t be an “official and legal” order. Such a thing can already be said of many of the Executive Orders that have been proclaimed and signed. It’s a technicality, I know, but I’m just trying to point out another instance of the law being twisted and ignored rather then upheld.
I’ve actually got a setting/ system that uses this idea as a world building start. Necrobiotic by Penny for a Tale. It’s pretty cool, although i use it as a guide for world creation with DnD games rather then playing in the created system.
