Miles O'Brien

Honestly I can go 3 days without playing Rimworld and I’ve completely forgotten what was happening, and half of my mods are unfamiliar again so I have to start over.

I was ranked in the top 10 for pistol kills in modern warfare 3 for over a year and a half.

Then I lost interest in fps games for a few months. Tried to come back and play with some friends, and completely sucked ass.

I saw a post asking the same thing the day I joined lemmy dot world with my first account.

That was a couple years ago now. I think I’m on my third instance?

Smeagol/Gollum wasn’t quite a hobbit, according to Tolkien.

So either way, no evil hobbits.

Even Lobelia Sackville-Baggins.

Flour + water = hardtack

clack clack

:D

If it isn’t proof they target children, I don’t know what is.

Microtransctions prove they should be illegal every time I read any article about them

To me it’s felt more like “look at me I’m so unique”

“God told me to do it.”

The first time I heard that as a teenager, I made sure nobody ever felt comfortable saying it around me again.

Some mild stripping, knocked over glassware, and “speaking in tongues” later, sorry god made me do it.

“are corporations whose sole purpose is to extract as much money from the masses as possible with no thoughts to anything else up to and including destroying the house it occupies in order to maximize profits to blame for the world around us? Or is it those dirty fucking people with all their bad gross nasty purchasing of the things the corporation shoves down their throats?”

I’m sorry but did a CEO write this?

I’d love to be able to repurpose my old kindles. I have 3 of them that have been gifted over the years and another two that I could probably just ask for since family members have newer ones.

Ideally I just want to have a simple ebook reader and nothing else for at least two of them.

The only issue is from the (admittedly small) searching I’ve done, they aren’t easy to root or install custom roms due to the software version or how new they are. I’ll admit I don’t exactly know what I’m even looking for.

I’d rather reuse things I already have than buy a new tablet just to read books on, especially since it seems like they’re just overpriced generic crap that all looks and mostly feels the same.

Having a grimy, fingered little brother is always fun.

Look, he may be grimy, but kink shaming isn’t cool. He can be fingered whenever he feels like it.

If I had the money and ability to trust strangers I would hire people to clean my house for me.

I love the loop of “feel bad for not cleaning - depressed - don’t clean - stare at floor - feel bad for not cleaning…”

On one hand, I have adhd and depression, and my parents definitely have at least depression. So I’m used to messes everywhere up to and including not seeing the floor for a week or more at a time.

On the other hand, I feel bad when someone gets in my car and I have to move one or two items off the seat.

go fuck a duck

Poor duck…

On one hand, I have a coworker who clearly angrily scraped his trump stickers off the tailgate, and on the other, I have a coworker who straight up held a nazi salute with an audible “heil” when he started talking about his favorite band, Rammstein.

Now I don’t know anything about Rammstein and their political views in general, but I’ve known a few Germans in my time and they all held very strong (negative) views on the nazi regime.

Most coworkers have stopped talking about politics and such in general during breaks though.

Let people have their harmless fun. This hurts no one.

And what about very old fiends?

You’re still more patient Than I.

It’s great that they’re rational enough to change their views in the face of evidence, even if it takes more evidence than it usual.

bit my tongue to not torpedo our relationship

I’m so glad my wife is basically no contact with her parents, because I never have to play nice with them.

I guess Google just says “fuck 'em”?

Yes, 100%, absokutely correct.

Google is a company.

Companies do not care about you. You are not a person, you are a number.
