That’s an interesting perspective that I really hadn’t thought about much but you’re totally right. Glad I was always more of a lurker there.

It’s not exactly that I’m buying into it disappearing is a foregone conclusion - just that if something doesn’t happen to proactively protect and improve the system, than yeah, it’s in big trouble in the next decade. And my personal bias puts my main concern on the people who rely on it for disability insurance since they are some of the most vulnerable. Of course I want what I paid into it myself later in life, but at least I can see it helping those close to me for some consolation if it doesn’t.
Millennial here and I have a few family members that rely on SSDI so I just like that my contributions support them. I’ll figure things out myself for retirement. But an estimated 7.8 million people rely on SSDI and taking that away from them could very well be death sentences. We have to do better.
I stayed off of Reddit near totally the first month or so and have been visiting it more again lately and there is a definite drop off in quality all over the place.
I hope to see a bigger push across all tech for this. We can’t possibly do better in the fight to improve the climate if we keep using gadgets that have to be replaced every two years.
It’s a truly perplexing design choice but at least they are being up front about it I guess. Hopefully they can get it sorted sooner than later.
Reddit is Fun.
Unfortunately I don’t think anything like this exists in the game yet. Looks like they will be introducing the 'Scroll of Amnesia" as a seasonal item to reset your character, but that reads like a one way one time thing.
Agreed. Bluetooth wasn’t great at first but has been fine for years now.
Only level 64 but this accurately describes the bear druid experience. With any luck you get the shockwave aspect early but I didn’t until mid forties. Once you get it together though it kicks ass.
I switch between swiping and typing. It works pretty well most of the time.
Monopolies are generally bad but Microsoft does seem to be doing a decent enough job with all the other studios they have scooped up. If we can get Bobby Kotick out of the picture seems like a win to me.
To be fair life in sanctuary looks awful so it’s safe to assume anyone you talk to has it bad.
I think some people don’t even realize PhD and MD are different things.
You perfectly describe how it felt on Reddit to comment and what turned me into a lurker after the years went by. Doing my best to be more active on Lemmy to help get this thing growing!
Vampire Survivors on the steam deck.
It’s a good idea to check in on this every so often just to make sure your employers are paying their contributions too. I recall some horror stories when this this been posted before.
Smelling C-diff for the first time is something.
I long for the day when they are just normal everywhere. Easily one of the best things to come out of the pandemic and those wild toilet paper shortages.
