Not good enough. Google showed their hand and they will try this garbage again at a later date

The new stadiums are another factor that really is ruining sports for me. In my city they are building a new one for the hockey team and it is mostly paid by taxes. So our property taxes are going to sky rocket to build this thing and then they will jack up the game ticket prices so we cannot even afford to go to games.

They sold it to the public as this was going to be a community building, which is such garbage. Am I going to be able to go down there when no games are happening and skate on the rink? Of course not

Last year I went to the league championship of my local lower level pro soccer club. Tickets were $40 each for good seats and it was a sell out. Our team won and it was honestly a blast.

I don’t know that I would have had a better time at a top tier pro sports final that would have cost thousands to attend.

I’m glad you brought this up, because this is another great point related to the time suck. I have two kids now and every hour I spend watching sports is an hour not spent with my kids or being an absent parent. Makes it hard to justify.

Recently too I had a brother in law who skipped his infant sons first time trick or treating because his team was in the World Series. It was a big topic of debate for our family.

I have played it multiple times and it has never hooked me. I keep meaning to go back, but I don’t know if I will

So I’m going to put this out there, why watch this content on a Android that we will have less and less control over as time goes on?

Grab a laptop with Linux on it and go wild. I now have a computer hooked up to my TV and I don’t have to worry about any of Google’s bullshit

This is the type of bullshit bullies say to try to make themselves feel like they are not so bad. If you are a bully, or ever were a bully, you were scum. Accept it.

There is no justification for treating people horrible. If you are having bad things happen to you, it says more about your character if you are able to stop yourself from treating people the same way. Break the cycle.

GTA 6 was something I was already planning to avoid. I’m sure it will be a technological achievement, but the fact that this game took close to a decade and a half to come out, I moved on from the idea of a new GTA game long ago.

Rockstar was happy to milk GTA 5 for that whole time rather than making new games the fans wanted. Sure RDR2 was released, but were fans really only wanting one game in a decade plus? Of course not. Why make a new game when you can make money from micro transactions in your current one. Basically acting like GTA landlords and expecting continued money while offering no real value to an old game. They even put a casino in GTA online, in case you needed a clearer idea of what their priorities are now.

GTA 6 will probably have a great story mode, but the GTA online garbage is coming too, guaranteed. It would not surprise me if the online components even find a way into the single player story. Not to mention the size this game will be on your system. I bet 200 gb - 300 gb and the probably higher price tag.

Now Rockstar is union busting. This is on top of all the toxic work environment flak they got for over working their employees in the RDR2 development.

Fuck you Rockstar, I don’t need a new game from you.

I’m having issues getting the microphone on my sony headphones to work on my steam deck. I was figuring it is due to missing drivers as well

Relationships end for a reason. When you breakup it’s important to always remember why you broke up. It’s easy to only remember the good parts and that is often how people get sucked back in again to the same relationships and the same kinds of people.

Keep remembering what the breaking point was and how you felt at the worst times. Doing that makes it easier for yourself to rationalise why you are not together.

Also total separation is key. No willing contact again ever. If they are gone completely, then it will be easier to move on.

The first one is great. Wild that it is almost 20 years since that came out

Fuck you Spotify

Michelle Williams seems to always be in movies like this

I have always felt that you should be paid for travel time for a job. If it takes 30 mins to drive to work then the company should be paying you that time.

Look at how many bosses/CEOs bill their daily travel expenses to the company

Gonna push me to using a dumb phone and a Linux laptop I guess.

Just more of a case to delete Instagram from your phone

What a joke

When I was a younger I asked my dad this same question and I will never forget how frazzled he was by it. He told me some b.s. answer like, “Oh, I don’t know. You don’t really need to do that.”

He made me feel humiliated for asking. At a certain point I could not ignore it anymore though, so when I experimented and tried to figure it out myself, I did cut myself and there was blood everywhere. I was terrified and thought I was going to bleed out. Luckily it wasn’t really that bad and I managed it on my own, but I remember how scared I was.

After going through all that, I told myself that I would help my future son if he ever asked me a question like that. You are a better dad than mine was in this situation. It’s your job to help them with whatever they need, and it would have meant a lot to me back then if my dad had helped me the way you did. I can guarantee your son appreciated it and will remember how you looked out for him.

It is obvious that they don’t want average consumers fixing these. What parent has the time to take the controller apart like that to change the battery. Nintendo are slime

Not me obviously, but you should look up the accident Adam Devine had as a kid. Pretty serious, but it is hilarious how he talks about it. His leg is so crazy knarley
