Yeah that’s really no contest anymore.

They prompt more questions than answers about how they do business, I’ve gone over that.

Let me know when grocery shopping is cheaper than ordering or eating out. Then we’ll talk.

Guess I’m in for a long wait then if all you did was downvote.

The only gray markets I trust is CDKeys and even that is kindof shady. The thing is, we never know how exactly these people get keys to turn around and resell them. But it isn’t like they’re entrusted with keys like Fanatical, Humble Bundle, GreenManGaming are. These other places, like G2A, has to get them through illicit means which could be fraud and could lead to consequences if some sources take a closer look at what’s going on. Which in turn, could lead to compromise of keys or worse - permaban from Steam.

Regional pricing does also play a part, but it also still begs the question - how and where are they getting that much money to buy keys in bulk? Least enough to warrant staging a site where people can buy said keys from? It’s more questions than answers, but I would still favor piracy than chancing my luck at these sites.

Knowing the people who I ideally want to date or would have a better chance of dating, will forever be out of my reach because of missed opportunities in the past. For example, there’s a couple of friends I know I would’ve loved to date. One of them I could’ve had but nobody said anything to eachother and it had been 14 years ago when that chance came and went. We just mesh well together and can go the distance when it comes to conversing and getting along. But, I’m forever friend-zoned because nobody said anything when emotions were high back then.

And another thing is accepting the fact that you aren’t as compatible with some of your friends when you thought you were. The painful part is realizing this after so long. I had a massive friend exodus last year. I’ve lost friends whom I’ve been with for 15 years, 10 years, 5 years and 3 years in that order. And it was simply because at somepoint, we just ignored the part where we weren’t as heavily compatible as we once were. And it showed the more times we were at odds with eachother. Hell, I lost another friend this year who I had hit it off well for 3 going 4 years and it’s the same example.

It’s a matter of keeping the plants contained. I have witnessed cut down bushes and trees multiply than how they originally were before they were cut down. Try managing that in a home or somewhere smaller.

Most of them. They require not only the right ingredients and even the right brands. But the amount of tools you would have to go out and get, just to make that thing. I currently am struggling to make homemade butterbeer, from harry potter, because I spent like a combined $30+ in materials and ingredients and that’s only by one recipe. Which is another thing, recipes vary and have their own way of doing things which again is going to require having to spend more just to make it.

It’s a no-brainer why people would rather have take out or go out to restaurants.

There are a handful of legendary singers that haven’t written even their best material. Frank Sinatra (My Way), Johnny Cash (Hurt), Madonna (Material Girl) and even Elvis Presley (Hound Dog). But, being a vocalist is like having an organic guitar. You wail, scream, screech, growl in various tone and octaves. And it is matter of making the song work. Some of the songs done by those artists I’ve mentioned, you would be hard pressed to find anyone else to fill their shoes, because they are what made the songs.

Is it too much to ask for America to have someone who’s only quality is that they’re not Trump? How about credulous capability? How about a spine to tell corporations to shove it? How about an actual move to progress things that should’ve been apparent in the present X amount of years ago?

Simply just not being Trump is not enough. Because what you do not care to realize, is that sets a low bar. You’re saying, you’re okay with someone not Trump even though they may not be any better. Don’t mix my words around, idiot.

Nah, Democrats failed us again last year. Instead of focusing on what matters, they played the exact same play out of their playbook from 2016. Which was to attack Trump over and over. They didn’t promise much of anything, only that “well, we’re not Trump so vote for us!”. We did that in 2020 with Biden and the best Biden did was nudge things but he didn’t do that grand of a job. We voted for him because he wasn’t Trump. When it came time for a fresher candidate to make history again, what did Harris do? She caved and went the whole “AT LEAST WE’RE NOT TRUMP!” towards the end of her campaign and that didn’t do wonders.

And the fact that the Democrats allowed for Republicans, unchallenged, to take the Senate and House? Dude, no balls on them.

Reality check should’ve set in for you the first month he was in office. All of the things he’s been saying that he’ll do if he got elected again. He did more than a quarter of those things within the first week. We have 4 years with this asshole now and the only silver lining is the mid-terms, provided there will even be a mid-term election next year.

He has already done 32% of the things he’s promised to do and that’s just all within one month. Do you think he’s bluffing? When he said he was going to throw tariffs on countries he feels is at fault for the problems in america, he did so. When he said he was going to fire lots of people, he did. When he said he was going to pardon everyone possible for January 6th, he did. There’s still more to come, too.

And you think he’s joking?

All that we’ve ever asked from Mozilla is three things:

• Focus on the performance of your browser so that it is not a hog.

• Upkeep privacy

• Keep it secure

Out of all of those things, Mozilla fails at all except maybe the last thing. We didn’t ask for AI implementation. We didn’t ask for Firefox accounts. We didn’t ask for whatever feature flavor of the month that Mozilla got a hair up their ass about that they just had to throw into the browser. We asked for simple things and Mozilla overshot them. How are any of these features meant to uphold the values once held by Mozilla?

If you want to talk about a nothing-burger, think of all of the reasons that Mozilla had danced around to excuse itself by throwing these things in. And the cherry on top was the Terms of Service. Truly, they are tone-deaf.

We know and that’s why I dumped Firefox after 15+ years.

LibreWolf and Floorp is all I have. Oh and I kicked Thunderbird to the curb too for BetterBird.

I’m going to go out and say you are partaking this in a bad faith and dishonest manner. You can’t properly respond to people’s critique of your post.

Do they not realize who has the Senate and House? It’ll be like the first term all over again, where Republican will kiss his ass to protect him.

You pricks wanted him too, because you donated to his campaigns. What’s wrong? Is he TOO GOOD for you?

between the two leaders.

I’m sorry, I only counted one.

We’re going to be in for quite a generational gap and it’ll be noticeable.

Generation Graduates and Generation “Uhhhhhhhhhh…”

Man I can only hope that if we even survive just one year of this lunacy, that we’ve smartened up by 2026 to get a majority of these clowns out. That’s our honest and best chance right now.

I don’t think so. Mods have a sensitivity crisis, they don’t like it when people praise Luigi and feel CEOs should get theirs. Or that is considered “ADVOCATING VIOLENCE!!111” because I guess it’s okay for CEOs to play god and fuck with everyone’s lives on a regular basis but we can’t cheer for them to get shot.
