I feel rule

  • What is this from?

    • Singularity for me but not for thee

  • Rampant consumerism and tech saviourism are not solely the domain of "nerds", nor are they true of all "nerds". The group you are looking for is "people".

    Plenty of people you would never consider nerds will throw away their old phone just to get the newer model. They will assume they have no responsibilities to the world or to the community because government/science/jesus will sort the big problems out. They will live in their own tiny worlds never even considering the bigger problems at play.

    Why do you think this is a problem that only affects nerds?

    • I own a brutalist buttplug AMA rule

  • Butter also works

    • Sorry, Deutsch people

  • Saksa be you Germany

    • Biden Claims He's Done 'More for the Palestinian Community Than Anybody'

  • Genuinely read the headline as Trump first time and had to do a double take...

    • The debate gets interesting sometimes

  • It's funny you pull the whole "ackshually I never said that" but I never accused you of taking the moral high ground. I just said the meme perfectly captures the idiocy of people taking the moral high ground. You lumped yourself in that category.

    • The debate gets interesting sometimes

  • What kind of argument is this? "People talking about the current election are ignoring an option that hasn't existed for 4 years" of course they're not?! It's not an option any more! The meme perfectly represents the idiocy of anyone trying to take any kind of moral high ground by not voting. America has made its bed, it sucks but no amount of idealism can change the practical options available to you.

    • I refuse to believe that they made that abomination of a sequel

  • Damn this ruined my whole day

    • There is no point in trying to escape the simulation; Odds are, we don't exist outside it!

  • If you don't exist outside the simulation then for all intents and purposes this is your reality. Might as well make it a good one.

    • Whats your such opinion

  • Just because something makes individuals happy doesn't eliminate the consequences. Most people would probably agree that cars are more convenient for sure, but they are highly inefficient compared to public transport.

    You might not trust your government to manage public transportation effectively and that's completely reasonable, but is that the same as saying public transportation has no value and we should all just get cars and to hell with the consequences?

    • Mozillas petition to get an answer from Microsoft, is it using your data to train its AI?

  • Yeah we should just never do anything if it doesn't instantly fix the problem.

    • Epic Games Admits In Court That Its PC Store Still Isn't Profitable

  • They were saying the Epic Games Store hasn't made any profit from them, not that they never bought any product that makes Epic money.

    "Sure isn't profitable from me" - clearly referring to the store, which this entire post is about

    • Epic Games Admits In Court That Its PC Store Still Isn't Profitable

  • How exactly does paying for unreal games make the epic games store profitable? Epic would still be getting that money even if the store didn't exist.
