You go see a psychiatrist, who is trained and qualified to tell you your self diagnosed condition doesn’t exist.

They can probably do it in one appointment, but they might have to keep telling you over and over again before you listen

But if you are going to agree to bad employment contracts and let the business people screw you

Hold on, let me get my helmet …

I’m almost positive outlook can be set up to do it on its own, I was just too lazy to Google how to set it up

It’s called a dead man’s switch and there’s not really anything complicated about it.

The thing is, it’s so so simple I doubt anyone has made a full on app to do it.

Like, the people who do that stuff aren’t the type to require an app to do everything for them.

I mean, most posts like this aren’t real to begin with if we’re talking about suspicions.

But they do get engagement so it’s worth popping in with general advice some people do need to hear.

Lately there have been some running jokes about how we’re basically a throuple already, and those jokes have been getting a little more… not-jokey.

Those jokes are almost never jokes…

If the other people were the ones starting the jokes, that’s called “testing the waters” and you might be in more of a trouble than you realize already.

Like, I get that guys don’t learn that as early as women, but most people figure it out

The same as for a comic book that hasn’t left it’s rated sleeve in 30 years, and never will again without ruining the value.

It doesn’t matter what happens after you open it, if no one is going to open it.

The value remains unchanged because long before degradation comes into play, what people are buying is the rarity.

And within 5-10 years, no one is buying it to play…

It’s a moot point.

If the original buyer bought to play, they wouldn’t wait so long the cart goes bad.

And after 5-10 years there’s no reason to overpay for a sealed copy to play.

which presents the obvious problem: if you have sealed games you’re hoping will increase in value over time, these could potentially become unplayable at some point.

It doesn’t matter what’s in the sealed box…

Because after a certain point opening the box ruins it as a collectible.

Yeah, the whole point was to show feudual society was fucking stupid.

No one bout a square meter of land and started going to the Queen’s brunches.

It was to mock the people that unironically wanted to be called a Lord in modern day.

I’m sure there some scams…

But that doesn’t mean they were all scams.

And I sincerely doubt one lone Chinese woman was responsible for all the companies doing it.

It depends where you are…

In Europe (primarily the UK) they sell tiny plots like that because it comes with a lordship.

So you can buy a lordship and token tiny square of land.

But they do that for the title, doing it just for land…

I dunno.

The only way I could see people go for it is if trump sells national Parks and people use this method to maintain it in its natural state.

Why deal with Ubisoft BS on PCs and their Client. Where older games force you to sign in to play them. When I could just have them on one box.

Yeah, but the advantage of PC is games “last longer” graphically.

Old games like those on PC you can max out all the settings and even use mods to further enhance it.

On an old console, you’ll always be playing at the same graphics it was released with

It won’t last forever though…

A lot of the non-upgradability is the pursuit of smallest form factor. But then everyone throws a case on it anyways. Miniaturization has diminishing returns and we hit that long ago with laptops.

Eventually we’ll hit it with phones, and then it’s just a matter of time till a solid “base” with swapable components come out. There’s been a couple already, but they still require a sacrifice of size or speed/power.

That’s why manufacturers are trying to push us to watches or glasses. They need to shrink the form factor to keep up the (insanely profitable) strategy of selling a brand new unit every 2 years.

Apple aggressively throttled CPUs when new models came out.

They claimed it was due to age of batteries and to prevent overheating. But then Samsungs started exploding and I think people just let it go.

Not sure if they still do it or not.

If you’re actually being sincere, you might want to ask people how to articulate your view, you’d have to let them know what your view is though. Or ask for peoples opinion on the question.

but why don’t manufacturers of basic cars just put a fancy-looking exterior onto them?

“Kit cars” are a thing…

Not sure what’s popular these days, but for a while people were putting Shelby Cobra bodies on Miatas.

It’s way more than a Miata, but way less than an authentic Shelby.

So people who just care about the looks have been doing this for decades now.

But when it happens as a production, people don’t buy it because other people recognize it for what it is, look at the PT Cruiser.

So if a couple people do it, it passes as expensive. If a lot do it, it comes off as tacky and becomes a joke.

I’m guessing the other person meant “the way it should be”

That’s a pretty safe guess considering they explicitly said that…

But I don’t think I’m going to make much ground explaining to you why they’re wrong either

Normal is something that’s basically the way it should be,

That is incorrect

Not normal, just uhhh… maybe common.

Either you don’t know what normal is or common is if you think they’re different things…
