I haven’t had that experience, but it’s probably because almost nobody assumes I’m rich in the first place, lol

No, I’m not sure if it works with my mobile browser

I’m surprised this has so many upvotes when there’s a headline and maybe 5 sentences before hitting a paywall

That really sucks, and I can’t tell you why your experience has been different from mine. I’d guess you ended up around shitty people. And maybe it kept happening, making you feel jaded and/or reluctant to share with others, including those who may have been more accepting.

I’m glad you are least recognize that your girlfriend (hopefully “ex-” now) isn’t as loving as she seemed.

I hope that you can find people to keep in your life with whom you can have those deep conversations about your feelings.

I think a lot of societies don’t do enough to teach men about how to communicate and how to communicate feelings.

Part of it might also be men internalizing this notion that they can’t discuss feelings and treating other men with that same standard.

I mean, I get it, it’s harder for men than women. The change needs to start with individual men though, not with society.

Yeah, no, I meant less the surface level stuff and more the “anything complex” category that you brought up.

Not everybody wants to talk about that kind of stuff all the time, and that’s normal. But it has not been my experience that all men want to talk about surface level stuff and only women talk about deeper feelings.

trying talking about your feelings as a man and see how society reacts…

This is odd to me, because talking about my feelings is how I got close to romantic partners. It’s also how I formed a lot of friendships with other men. How can you be close to someone if you don’t talk about feelings?

Why?

Even if that coffee is black and without sugar, that’s gotta be rough on your body and your teeth!

I imagine most do

I don’t think copy/paste is involved. With vibe coding, the AI agent typically has access to your repo/files directly!

Most people who work for evil companies aren’t doing evil things. A lot of the workers also actively try to do their best to make things better for their colleagues or customers. But they don’t make the decisions.

There’s also lots of “passive sabotage/subterfuge” – think of the scene in the original The Incredibles film where Mr. Incredible tells the claimant what she ACTUALLY has to do to get her insurance claim covered.

Which movie?

(There are plenty of people whose humour seems to be based on one movie, lol)

Video game ads were wild around the 90s and 00s.

The DS in particular was when Nintendo was trying to shake its “kiddie” image, but it’s handheld ads have been risqué at times since the original GB

Sometimes if protests are annoying, it drives away people who could have been swayed to your side.

Especially when reactance is a strong and relatively common social phenomenon.

Games you bought in the past seem to not have this issue, but any game you buy from now on will only work for 30 days without an online check-in.

The limit is when someone or something takes legal action against the author

We don’t have soda, but we have a coffee machine

Should I be worried when they take away the coffee machine, or should I already be scared that there’s no soda?

Macs definitely have a way to take screenshots/snips. I know they do, because before Windows had the snipping tool, this was one thing I was jealous about Mac’s having! Haha

For me, it was having a water filter and drinking out of glasses, not cups. I don’t like the way water tastes coming out of plastic or steel as much.

Step two, drink cup.

I think you’re supposed to drink the water, not the cup itself
