"It's a tactic of the Liberals who want to trip us up on social issues," said another. "If we put too much emphasis on this issue, we give them a stick to beat us with."

Those dirty Liberals using our policies and opinions against us. It's not fair!

Lara had a shotgun and assault rifle in the original games. What seemed wrong to me was the DIY bow and arrow and reliance on the ice climbing pick.

I remember how much everyone hated steam at first. The WON was fine why ruin it with this stupid steam thing?

Number of hours doesn't really come into it these days compared with how fun the game is for me. I'm nearly 40, and whether or not a game is engaging is most important. I've got about 50hrs into Avernum: Escape from the Pit (a retro style isometric RPG), but I've got nearly 80hrs into Teslapunk, my favourite Shmup(completing the game takes about an hour).I Iove Dark Souls 1 and 3, Bloodborne, and Sekiro, but eventually got bored of Elden Ring and its open world.

Ultimately how fun a game is combined with how painless it is to get started is what I'm most interested in these days. I don't have enough free time to be worrying if there are enough hours of gameplay.

Sometimes it's better if your employer doesn't know everything you can do. If you're not careful you'll end up Inventory Controller/shipper/IT services/reception/Safety officer, and you'll only ever be paid for whatever your initial position was.

I'm definitely around 10 years. I can't say for sure though as I lurked for the first 3 or 4. I haven't been to reddit since the final day. I logged out of my account on the final day, and as soon as my brother texted that RIF no longer works I uninstalled it. Haven't been back since. Lemmy was originally.... not disappointing exactly, but not "as good" as reddit, but it's quickly improved. I like it a lot. It feels like reddit, if reddit was part of the old internet.

Yeah no.

Don't be so hung up on getting a job you hate. The secret they don't tell you is that pretty well everyone hates their job. Get out and pursue things that seem interesting to you, and don't be afraid that you won't be good enough, that was my big downfall when I was younger. Since then I've held many wildly different jobs.

I started pursuing IT since I love computers, but ended up hating being an on-call computer janitor. I did fire surpression, then IT sales (hated that too), then randomly got a job on the railroad. After bouncing around the railroad I have now ended up as Jack of all trades master of none handyman that does maintenance for a nonprofit, and I love it.

I was more surprised than anyone to find out that I preferred working with my hands, and working outdoors. I had always dreamed of a cushy job with a nice office where I could wear fancy shoes. But now I'm a nerd for workboots who absolutely does not thrive in an office environment.

But essentially I'm saying try not to sweat it. It may take you a long time to settle into something you like. Don't be afraid to go outside your comfort zone because you just might like it.

I worked for for the railroad. Nothing is fixed ever. I witnessed hundreds of code violations every day for years. Doesn't matter if a rail car or locomotive meets code as long as it "can travel" its good to go.

When an employee inspector finds a defective rail car management determines if it will get fixed. If the supervisor "feels" like "it's not that bad" then the rail car is "let go".

Both is the answer. You do look hot doing chores. Also chores done is a turn on. It's like oysters and chocolate, but your house is tidy and it's not gross.

As a man who mildy electrocuted himself working on his own house yesterday I must say I'd rather be an influencer.

I bought a little town house 12 years ago. I didn't really want to. My wife talked me into it. I was worried that I'd never pay it off. With the cost of housing now I couldn't possibly afford to buy. I have a house, and a nice nest egg for retirement one day. Thanks wife!
