Just remember that “the economy” really stands for “rich people’s yacht money” – by that metric it’s doing great.


Basically, it’s subjective


Probably will vary with your teeth, gums, age, and the pH of your saliva. As well as what metrics you’re judging “best” by.


We used to say the same thing about Messenger.


Time to teach your friends and family that if they’re going to keep playing on the corporate intranet then they need to migrate from time to time to stay ahead of the tide of enshitification.
Or they could join the free internet that is actually by and for people, but far be it from me…


Yeah I guess I should stop ascribing any kind of communalist value systems to them. The like of you and I aren’t in the group they consider their community.


Ds9? I don’t watch shows anymore, though I like remembering it


The underwater episode is great though, tbf
I don’t know what’s up with my fellow millennials in the comments. I do order food once or twice a week.
How?? I suppose I did this like a decade ago, but ever since I learned to cook / budget, it seems untenable.
It’s Platform Capitalism.
You insert yourself as a convenient middle-man then jack up the rents once enough people move on to your platform to trigger network effects.
Enshittify until basically no one but a few execs and investors are profiting.
And to any engineers who think they’re on the winning team: look at the gig workers you help exploit. That’s the future of your vocation.


Also isn’t it so petty to admit you (would) move because you don’t want to shell out your bit for your community? Like isn’t that incredibly cheap? Don’t you like living in New York? Don’t you like your city?
It’s like the rich guy passing on the collection plate at church type move.


Oh wow I haven’t played since the original Source. I thought you were just talking about how you had to manage an equipment budget in a match. But no, legit gambling scheme with real time and money for what amounts to NFTs that can only be used within Steam’s ecosystem.


The vast majority of their players are just addicts who fell victim to the predatory mechanisms.
I don’t play Fortnite, but the only players I know are kids, and they just play it because that’s what everyone else is playing and they want to play with their friends. I’m not excusing the company for monetizing the shit out of it, but (anecdotally) the players’ behaviour just reminds me of me and my friends playing Dooms, UTs, or Quakes back in the day.


i mean it depends what the job is for


“Thanks for your time, but this job isn’t for me. I wish you good luck finding your candidate, though.”


I think it really does come down to individuals. Neither approach is going to work for everyone.
Not to oversimplify, but I think a big component is that extraverts feel more connected in person, whereas introverts will thrive when they can more easily regulate draining social encounters.
Not most of the people, just their leaders
Depends on the operation. It’s pretty easy in ranger or vifm.
