  • Yes:

    • Demystifying obscure or non-existent documentation
    • Basic error checking my configs/code: input error, ask what the cause is, double check it’s work. In hour 6 of late night homelab fixing this can save my life
    • I use it to create concepts of art I later commission. Most recently I used it to concept an entirely new avatar and I’m having a pro make it in their style for pay
    • DnD/Cyberpunk character art generation, this person does not exist website basically
    • duplicate checking / spot-the-diffetences, like pastebins “differences” feature because the MMO I play released prelim as well as full patch notes and I like to read the differences


  • Another way to word this might be “Platform with 8,000,000 monthly streamers/listeners pays less than platform of 1,000 subscribers to view pictures.”

    Think about it for a minute and it becomes pretty clear that shouldn’t be surprising at all

    You subscribe directly to someone on Onlyfans, you subscribe to Spotify as a whole and your listening habits help split the bill. If both are ~10 bucks a month of course one is going to make you more money than the other

    Especially if they’re a lesser known artist. Even if they’re getting listened to, if the same people listen to 3x as much swift or whatever that will impact the lesser known persons earnings

    This article is a dog shit way to bring attention to Spotifys issues, simple as







  • I don’t shame people for it, but I worked at a place where the screw holding the seat broke and it took a week for a new one to get in to the local hardware shop, so any time someone went in for that week someone would say “better not sit to piss” rather than be helpful because we like to do a little trolling around here

    One morning dude comes in clearly rushing cuz he’s a little late, runs in, and my coworker says the line. Before he can finish it the guys already in the shitter with the door slammed we hear the zipper he’s going so fast and furious, hear his ass hit the seat at speed, as well as him and the seat sliding from the missing bolt and falling into the corner of the room, taking the lid of the reservoir with him

    The “GYADDAMIT” as everything in the other room crashed and banged will be with me til I die, it makes me chuckle every time I think of it



  • They want you to consume only from them and only what they approve of

    Not just that, I remember when app stores were new and people clamoured to be on them AND those app makers would often move to ONLY being on the app store, with anything downloaded off-store being a scam

    So a lot of people grew up to use these devices at a time where downloading something off the web was more likely than not to be malware, giving them the ick on the idea as a whole

    Fuck, I’m from the time a bit before all of that and even I have a goddamn hard time downloading shit that’s available off-store on someone’s website out of pure paranoia from those days




  • The Boss, MGS

    Not Big Boss, the man with the eye patch and is a bad guy, the woman who taught him and the mother of Ocelot

    She was such a badass woman that she inspired basically everyone around her to try to mold the world in the way they thought she saw it. Shes a great example of a woman/mother who’s a badass directly because of the skills normally associated with those roles. Yeah, she can fight and kick your main characters ass, but that’s mostly because she’s spent time nurturing him and caring for him to the point where he emotionally cannot fight her. She regularly disarms strong, imposing men (some with superpowers like lightning channeling) by just looking at them sternly and implying she’s about to call them by all 3 of their names in a disapproving tone

    Time and again she does badass things while she’s alive, and her death is technically the catalyst for the rest of the series as those who loved and admired her try to shape the world as she saw it, which isn’t even something she herself did because of her loyalty to her country.

    Oh and she’s voiced by the same woman who does Pearl from SpongeBob, which is wild
