I see it as a state of mind. Because a “well traveled” person typically have a good understanding or appreciation for culture not their own. They can see both sides and form opinion based on the world as a whole and not just the country they live in.

I think it’s why people say to go travel to broaden your horizons. It helps make you a better person.

Absolutely. I don’t mind it and don’t not subscribe out of spite. Just my timing for deciding when to subscribe is dependant on the content. Sometimes I sub half way through. Or sometimes the same creator gets targeted to me and sub before watching

I don’t think I’ve ever subscribed when any YouTuber tells me to subscribe

I would love a slightly narrower and overall smaller steam deck. It’s great at home but I think twice about bringing it when flying already with a laptop and iPad.

My absolute most hated one is when signing in and using a two factor Authenticator. If you don’t use the Microsoft one. Every time you log in it “recommends” you to use their own. Fuck off.

Before anyone says go Linux. This is a work comp. I use Linux and Mac at home.

It’s such a perfect game already. I really should finish it. Dicking around for hours on end led me to put it down and take a break a month ago

This is good design.

Exactly. It’s the same with any diversity and inclusion push at any level. It exists because the current system favours a specific group of people. If we can put down any prejudice and hire people for their work and passion and account for people with less privilege. It exist still because we still do it. But also it exist now to try and right a wrong.

A minister for men is to do what? We had our time in the sun for the entirety of human existence while pushing women down. Men are at risk of losing anything. The shit men are I hope.

My passion projects are few and far between these days. But overtime I think I’m mostly proud and happy with everything I made. I look back and understand my skill set and mood in how and why I set to make it. It’s a snapshot of my youth and I love it. I don’t have to see it I just need to think back to the experience of making it. These are paintings, short films, photographs and such.

I work in creative. The work on the other hand is a different story. Some I’m happy with how it turned out but I definitely don’t look back at it the same way as personally projects.

I had a software that ripped gta music and ads and shuffled them so you can burn a cd to play in your car with the same in game radio.

Loved cruising around with k-rose on from San Andreas. The ads kill me every time.

There are theories about climate lockdowns to slow down pollution seeing how well it worked during Covid unintentionally. Personally I would froth for a periodic lockdown where everyone stayed home and chilled
