No the issue is literally the micro rentals. Because before that, we had couchsurfing. Which was all the great things about spending time in a different city staying with locals WITHOUT stupid infrastructure to fuck up the whole country

I mean I don’t like what they’re doing to the housing market, yes, they’re inflating housing prices by reducing the incentive to sell, and there’s a housing crisis basically everywhere right now.

errrr…you said it right here. AirBnB is created to do exactly that. the product isn’t good. the product is designed to create inflated housing prices. to make landlords even more rich and more able to exploit poor people. look at some tourist-y cities, where the original residents can no longer live in their houses, because it’s SO MUCH more profitable to rent per day on airbnb than to have normal rents. airbnb doesn’t provide anything. it doesn’t add anything positive. hotels are too expensive, maybe. but they have a service. they have some guarantees, room service, food, you’re guaranteed to have a room to sleep in by yourself. NONE of these are guaranteed with AirBnB. you can easily rent a room where you have to sleep with another person, clean up by yourself, pay stupid deposits,…

what even is ONE positive out of Airbnb?

not sure? I got one superlike to use for free a week. is that a regional thing? i have never paid for OkC in my life.

I’m holding the torch for OkCupid. I’ve met my SOs there. Many queer folk, leftists, likes work reasonably well and you even get free “superlikes” once a week. Messages are free, likes are free.

So much Love for David Tennant<3

Nah, I’m an okay person. Sure I do bad things. I make mistakes and have problematic behaviour patterns from time to time. But I am working on it. That’s what makes a “good” or “bad” person. It’s almost never about what you do but mostly about intent and willingness to learn

Is there a way to be reminded of that every weekend?

i’ll save this comment to look back on it when it’s actually time. this all sounds so well-thought-out. i’m really humbled by your thoughtful advice

thanks. i’ll look into that. i know about m.2. good advice :)

well, even 2 years ago, my Pc couldn’t run some games smoothly that eat ram. i was a pretty prolific cities skylines player and that thing EATS ram like nobody’s business.

thanks! I wasn’t sure what to expect when asking this. i feel very old and i’m happy that nobody made fun of me but you’re providing help to me in a kind and generous way! have a good one

thanks for your comment. windows is on a ssd, but i’d like a second one to load some stuff faster. my stuff was bought and configured 10+ years ago so my SSD is 128gb

great points. thanks! would you know a price point i should have in mind for a mobo? i am not playing the latest and greatest games and not rendering videos, would like upgradability especially with ram.

i guess I would. my CPU is as old as the MoBo. its a I7 4770K (which came out in 2013 RIP), i think that proves i made a great investment back then for my PC to still run great after 10+ years Oo…

why are scooters practical and motorcycles not? I only ride a motorcycle. any distance too long for bycicle or inconvenient with public transit, I take my motorcycle.

Smalltalk.

Depends. In one way, nothing is old, because we shaped and changed everything. But I guess the foods that humans ate at the beginning of our journey is mostly berries and roots.

so. For dumb people like me (or just for me to be clear), how do I play those games? i watched the video and read the site. there’s a link to the MM gamefiles on GitHub, but the video said you still need the ROMs? or this RT64? I’m old and apparently at some point, you just lose tech savvyness… :( can I get a step-by-step?

Wait. You said “non political music” (as if that were a thing) and then you say SoaD???! Please read their lyrics. They are full of politics. From war protests to the Armenian genocide to anti-science and pseudo-science weirdness.

Music is always political.

there’s something called “I-sense” which makes us humans aware of other individuals, you sense that an other person has an “I” (not in the Freud way). like you sense that a rock doesnt
