Let's play the rich get everything. The rules are the rich get everything. participation is mandatory.
  • You're "free" to die in a cardboard box under a freeway

    Actually... They made that illegal. You're free to rot in prison for being homeless, though!

  • Generative AI is reportedly tripling carbon dioxide emissions from data centers
  • And even if it doesn't, it'll still make hundreds of trillions of dollars doing it, so it was worth it in the end.

  • Lemmy is the best social media
  • Goderator?

  • Teens say they learn more in school about frogs’ bodies than their own
  • But the frogs are gay, so if our kids start fucking the frogs, they'll be gay, too!

  • If you don't work IT, retail, or food service what do you do for work?
  • Healthcare. I'm the senior Pharmacy Tech for our little independent psych pharmacy.

    Before joining healthcare, I worked both food service, and have my degree in Computer Science. I try to keep my passion of food alive in my home kitchen, and mix CS into my job responsibilities, and hobbies.

  • Divide and rule
  • American dream of owning a home is dead, majority of renters say
  • My take? Young people have no money, interest rates suck, but when a home becomes available that is affordable,

    We had an offer for cash, as is, and took it

    Sounds like an issue of being unable to get into the market (that you continued to propogate). Young people are poor, so they're unable to compete.

  • How many other businesses would we be fine with operating like this?
  • I work for a psych clinic where the head doctor rarely turns down same-day appointments, while his schedule is fully-booked to see multiple patients/15-20 mins. We've slowly bled providers over the course of the last 3 years and haven't really replaced any of them. Turns out, it's hard to hire when you have a reputation for low salaries and nefarious contract negotiations.

    Each specialty may have their own story, but we definitely see constant issues of being overbooked AND understaffed.

  • The children yearn for the mines
  • Can't spell "minimum wage" without "minimum age!"

  • 17-year-old shot and killed by officer conducting welfare check
  • It's like using a gun to make Swiss cheese!

  • I dislike the King
  • Stupid is as stupid does. Flint, MI, is still dealing with the fallout of lead in their drinking water.

    Maybe Stanley should start putting uranium in their cups, too.

  • should i??
  • Back in the day - it was certainly quite the deal! I remember that even Pump Speed division at WPF would DQ players for so much as touching the bar. In retrospect, it was such an odd thing for us all to be so particular about - maybe just the newness of the game and maturity of chart design?

    You may be interested to know that while bar play has become the norm, some players are still recognized for choosing no bar play at very high levels.

  • should i??
  • Somebody clearly hasn't played dance games since 2004. The old bar-vs-no bar argument has since been shored up with "just play the damn game." Regardless of original intention for the bar, it's even highly suggested/nearly required for high-level play anymore.

    I haven't actually read machine manuals for recent releases, but does DDR Ace/SMX/Pump Phoenix still outright state not to lean on the bar?

  • The lazy, entitled millennials trope just doesn’t hold up. Whoopi in hot water again...
  • Make it retroactive so that everyone that's already retired has to come back and work an additional 3-5 years. Lazy boomers won't do it.
