  • I don’t personally think we’re anywhere close to this point but I imagine the objective is to eat the corporate laptop market. Outside of developers I think there’s a real appeal to giving business users an AR headset and a phone. You don’t have to worry about monitors, keyboards, headsets, etc. It’s significantly lighter and more mobile. Most of what business people do doesn’t need more processing power than a phone has. You could eliminate cubes and just have banks of seats with small desks. Plus imagine the productivity gains when you can literally watch the user’s eyes and prevent them from even looking at non-work items

    Wow, I got really distopian with that really fast. Of course Apple and Meta are interested in it





  • In America at least most people don’t really consider it until the kid is born. Then in the post birth rush of things happening someone asks if you want to circumcise your kid. Most Dads will say “well I’m circumcised, so I guess” and his dad said “well I’m circumcised, so I guess” and his dad said “well I’m circumcised, so I guess” and his dad said “HE IS BORN OF SIN! We must circumcise him to discourage sinful behavior!”

    Most people really don’t think too deeply about most things, try not to over think it


  • It’s kinda the same thing as “selling feet pics” and “stripping to pay for school”. There’s a common belief that since men are so desperate for sex that any woman willing to do sex work will make a decent amount of money. That’s simply not the case if you actually talk to any kind of sex worker. However, America is so puritanical that most people don’t even know a sex worker, let alone have the bravery to ask them about their work

    The Final Fantasy pixel remasters are all old school turn based RPGs that can be played one handed on the steam deck. Certainly not all 50 games but UFO 50 has a bunch of games made for a non-existent console that are all pretty simple and I would bet a lot of them can be played one handed. Both Crypt of the Necrodancer and Cadence of Hyrule are rhythm dungeon delver games that probably work one handed too, technically so would the new game Rift of the Necrodancer but that requires more skill than I have

    Oh, and for the RPG fan Disco Elysium is almost certainly up his alley and perfect for one handed play





  • is the secret lots of maple syrup?

    Yeah that helps quite a bit. I don’t know if you’ve ever had a maple bourbon chicken or maplewood smoked chicken but chicken and maple does work well together. Obviously maple syrup goes well with waffles too. The syrup really does tie the room together

    I will say that fried chicken is easier to fuck up than people think. As a resident of the US south I have it with regularity and a lot of it is pretty dry which sucks. Waffles however are pretty hard to fuck up. So what I’m saying is the chicken really makes or breaks the dish. Also if you have the opportunity to do it with cornbread waffles then it’s a even better


    1. It doesn’t matter what they do, Republicans will always blame Democrats for everything. They blame Democrats for the results of Republican policy, so why are you concerned about a blame game?

    2. Republicans have control of every part of the federal government, The House, Senate, Presidency, and Supreme Court. As long as Democrats just vote no and don’t impede legislation (which they should also do, but I digress), their messaging should be “look how fucking incompetent your leadership is. They have every tool at their disposal and still can’t run a government effectively.” Why is it the Democrats job to assist them? It’s not like Republicans would do the same

    I know the answer is that Democrats exist to placate people while Republicans continue enriching the wealthy but man it’d be nice if they grew a fucking spine
