No. If something is too expensive I simply move on. I get anxious simply conducting commerce in a regular environment, like my desire to buy this thing is an intrusion on the shopkeepers day.

I also refuse to buy from places, usually burger vans, where the prices are so small as to be hidden until you get to the front of the queue. If you’re going to say “what do you want” at the exact moment I’m weighing up the price/object ratio, I’m out.

I had the same thought with cape and peninsula

You’ve obviously put a lot more thought into this than I ever will, but I’ve never reached a point of claustrophobia, more the opposite, like agoraphobia. Every time I learn a little more there’s references to things I don’t know yet so need to learn those to understand that. But surprise! That topic also has references and underlying details I don’t understand and haven’t heard of before.

I get very intimidated by the awareness of the sheer scope of my ignorance.

I know the one you’re talking about and to me that’s the least egregious of them all. It’s contextual and thematic, even if it is just shit.

I’ve been looking over my daughters shoulder as she watches YouTube shorts, and a regular clip of brain rot will announc its using the greenscreen effect. Hidden behind all the username/soundtrack/description will be a teeny tiny brown man’s head muttering punjab almost imperceptibly quietly.

Not sure if they’re better or worse than the dickheads splitting the screen in two and passively pointing up towards the video that is also showing.

I’m disappointed with it, but that’s my problem. I can’t put my finger on why, I think my expectations have changed. Somehow I was expecting it to blow me away like the first time I played it and obviously it just can’t do that.

Still gonna sink a fair few hours into it though.

“You jinx it? Believe it or not, jail”

At the risk of doing some kind of ism, it’s weird that normal people do it.

I can see the merit giving them to someone who is a drug addict or otherwise mentally enfeebled so they can get the intended gift with a little more agency over specifics with less risk of them spending it unwisely.

Gonna go ahead and show my ignorance here, but why is this such a bad thing?

That’s what he’s trying to do, just doesn’t know where to go for that.

Now that I’m thinking about it I’m surprised there isn’t a dragons den type thing for software development.

I feel that so hard.

All that ended up happening was I’d learned not to bother trying. If I didn’t try I’d still beat everyone else. Then real life started and it turns out the only lesson you needed to learn in school was to learn how to try.

I’m sure they’ll be labelled inside too.

They’re waiting for you, OP, in the test. Chamberrrr.

I don’t understand the intricate details, but ultimately their property ownership is just some words on a piece of paper somewhere right?

Surely we can bust the tippex out.

A suit?

Knowing literally no other details other than your ages and the fact youre asking strangers, I would say bad idea. It might be a phenomenal idea though with more information.

The oedipus offensive

Bitcoin wasn’t wrecking us fast enough

Nothing will ever beat the windows XP menu formats. They’re ugly and dated now, but I can’t imagine anything more efficient.

Edit : that said my favourite is grid for media. I’m having difficulty remembering names these days, and I can more easily spot what I’m looking for by remembering the rough colour/shape of the game icon. It’s basically lost forever when they update it and the image changes.

Actually planning to live on the moon. Still didn’t get my hoverboard.

I’m pretty out of the loop on that sort of thing, but the games come with inbuilt game editors to make your own mods really easily right?
