This is what Melee players look like on their way to the local tournament. Gotta get that venue discount for bringing your own setup.

Step 1 - Create a depression unlike we have ever seen and make people desperate for any job they can get.

Reminds me of something I read once. If you want to get out of work. Like you’re at work, and you really really don’t want to be there. You can get out with 4 words. You swallow your pride, walk into your bosses office, and proclaim “I shit my pants”
You will have the rest of the day off.

Really depends on what I am doing. Whatever I was previously doing has been been put on an indefinite pause until I can get new clothes and probably take a shower. But I have kids, so the day must go on.

But… But line. Line go up.
Youre telling me that exploiting the workers, making life horrible and expensive for the middle and lower class while giving tax breaks to the ultra wealthy makes the line not go up?
B… But line. Line go up!
It is a question. The answer is always “Aight”

I used to be really good at video games, but now I just don’t have the time. I remember being able to jump in any CS lobby and jump to the top of the server. I got kicked for supposedly cheating all the time. That was always a good feeling. Knowing that I’m kicking so much ass that people assume I must be cheating.
My crowning achievement is beating Super Ghouls and Ghosts - both times through (second time with the farie bracelet). This was using an original SNES, no save states or anything. Dedicated an entire summer of my teenage life to it. Game is hard, man.
Computers used to be a hobby but I turned that into a career. I’m a principal systems engineer and I like to think I’m good at what I do.
I got really into cooking, and it was maybe a hobby at some point, but now with a family it’s more of a necessity. A lot of the things I learned while cooking as a hobby turned into skills though. I’m not sure how to explain it, but like having cooking intuition. Knowing when to add more or less of something just by knowing. Also just being able to freestyle meals out of what is laying around or knowing what can be substituted with what or how to make ingredients out of other ingredients.

My thoughts exactly. If we could make solar panels more effective and cheaper in addition to having a way to store and quickly discharge that energy safely, we could power houses, cars, etc all without emission. Would love it if the batteries didn’t have short lives as well.
Theres some cool solid state battery tech on the horizon, but it always seems to be on the horizon and never actually showing up.
Hah. I just got my first one today. I immediately chalked it up to spam, but didn’t know it was so widespread. Hilarious.

I like AI for a couple things here and there when I elect to use it. When I am forced to use it and I did not elect it, I fucking hate it.
I’m not sure if you’ve realized, but that means nothing. It has become abundantly clear that the law (and lawsuits) are used by the ruling class and not against them. When used against them, it doesn’t matter. They either ignore the fines, pay the pennies, tie it up in court, or in some other way get off scot free.
I’m all for protesting, but make no mistake, people will be made an example of, and it won’t be the oppressors.
I’m not even sure I would call it “low income households”, more like “older building/houses”. Plenty of expensive apartment units are in old buildings (I’m looking at you NYC) without proper ventilation.
I own a unit in a co-op in a building that is over 100 years old. I have a gas stove. There is a vent on my above-range microwave but it’s just a filter that blows it back into the room. I do a lot of cooking. I’m in danger.
That an corporations don’t care about their daily numbers unless they are trending. Like, people won’t buy stuff today, so they will just go buy the stuff tomorrow. Monthly and quarterly profits took no hit.
Why is nobody talking about how dirty that power strip is? And one of the plugs isn’t all the way seated. That thing poses more danger than Luigi.

I used to have this as a kid, but with very thinly sliced apples in there as well. Damn now I kind of want one.

ABYXABYXBABAYXXABYX - infinite thermal detonators in one of the Star Wars SNES games
Everylittlethingshedoes - unlock all magic in Warcraft 2
BEWAREOBLIVIONISATHAND - something in Turok 2. I think all weapons?
These are two different things, and it’s usually worded as such:
Expiration Date: we cannot guarantee that eating food after this date will not cause sickness. Eat at your won risk, and we are not responsible if you get sick.
Best By Date: basically means nothing. We think it tastes better before this date but there are no actual health implications after this date.
Fuck “Best By” dates. I’ll decide if it tastes good or not, and if I don’t like it, I’ll throw it out. As long as there are no actual health implications. You usually only find expiration dates on dairy meat, and sometimes bread.
