The problem I have is when a gimmick is forced on me

Yup big cannabis is already doing shitty things to try to get their strangle hold over the space. They will be pretty awful at a state level once fed legislation hits I think.

Yeah like I hate Microsoft, I am migrating to Linux, and the things I read about recall were pretty fucking horrifying to me. At the end of the day though the general public doesn’t give two shits about tech other than it works out of the box.

Your argument isn’t grounded in reality which is my argument, propose a plan that will actually have impact past screwing service workers.

I’m not sure what your point is with labor demonstrations, those people got change though very bloody(not voluntarily bloody) organized protests, not tipping isn’t even close to an accurate comparison. A little more profit to the working class is a crumlet and just doesn’t do shit for service workers, let’s focus on taking the pie back which again not tipping isn’t doing.

Best instance

This only works in an idealized perfect scenario which doesn’t exist. You not tipping only hurts the delivery driver and doesn’t touch the man whatsoever. Furthermore companies are only required to pay 7.25 federally unless state has other laws, which many don’t. So best case scenario you are bumping people up to 7.25 which isn’t even close to a living wage and wouldn’t do a thing for vehicle maintenance and gas.

You are welcome to believe that you are sticking to the man not tipping but the reality is that you are fucking over hard working people short term. Even if everyone unilateral agreed to stop tipping it would take years for the system to fully catch up and again you would be fucking them over during those years.

Switch instances?

I’d rather upgrade a component or two for that price, you know the thing PC gamers spend money on instead of getting a console to play exclusives.

It is a bit but not terribly so imo, but I do hate Sony so I have a bias. Here is a more neutral article on it:

It’s a lot different in academia vs industry for hard sciences. I currently work in industry, we have no options in the things we research but we are funded to the Moon. There is of course some amount of bowing we have to do in order to keep them quiet but that’s about it.

In academia you have to secure your own funding constantly or your project just ends essentially. Academic institutions also look at metrics like impact factor and papers published/time that also effects the availability of funding. I know that people have had to stop pursuing doctorates due to funding issues. Politics in academia is notoriously horrendous.

Yeah but the original cannabis indica described has none of the physical characteristics of what it does today, there is not a genetic difference between sativa and indica that is sold in the cannabis market today.

Same as every year the country gets shittier, keep trudging along, voting, and hoping things improve. The way things are set up here I can’t feasibly leave, even moving in country would be a beast to save and prep for let alone out of country.

The “Freedom” we have is voting every couple years and that’s it. Even then they have tried everything possible to strip the voice of the majority of Americans. We are pretty fucking powerless for the most part.

Uvalde was a tragedy but this has absolutely no merit

WOTC could offer to come suck me off and still wouldn’t give them a fuckin dime. Fuck you Hasbro, you lazy sacks of shit wanted to have intellectual rights to work you didn’t create just because it’s in a rule system you have some IP in. You forever burned the bridge for me.

Yeah I kinda had the same thoughts when I saw it but I do think it’s a solid desktop model. I’m really curious how hard it hits, I used the classic VB1 years ago and liked it.

This packed in a Lemmy post is great, thank you that post is getting saved!

Thank you, I was looking for a syntax list too!

Yeah it’s kinda confusing lol, industry really needs to rebrand it as a wireless head or something.

I thought I recognized that color scheme, can’t go wrong with Grav labs!

Man that is a clean looking ball vape, wireless too, sick setup! I love the way the armored coil looks too, very visually satisfying. I have heard great stuff about the Omega and zeal! I was looking at their website, the kits are a crazy good price. Pretty crazy like 2-3 years ago you basically had to sink $500 or make a DIY. I see sub $300 kits pretty often now! Is this your first baller? I got a pre-order screwball that should be in by the end of the month, so hyped!
