Speak for yourself. Being choosy with clients and jobs is a good chunk of the reason I work for myself, when I could instead be making/tweaking/re-designing the carbon-fiber exteriors for predator drones for about 3 times the income.
I loved everything I saw of that workshop, except the clients and the end product. I prefer to be able to sleep at night.
I Love plot myself, but I DESPISE poorly executed Rails.
Weirdly, ebooks are one of the few things I’ve kept backed-up to Drive, media-wise. Some of the larger categories in my collection are the works of Marx, Engels, and just stuff about Socialism and Communism in-general.
Maybe they assume I’m just harmless crank, since I’ve also got anything I could find related to the PoleShift Survival Guide?
One thing I actively made sure to keep away from Google was all the stuff I grabbed from DEFCAD/Defense Distributed. That would almost certainly cause a ban.
Normies and weirdos have odd ideas what a normie or a weirdo is. That’s kinda OP’s problem. The spaces they think they should feel comfortable in aren’t comfortable(enough) with them.
Sounds like they aren’t comfortable enough in their own skin, and the people they try to get to know catch onto that quick, to be honest. That, and/or they are allergic to feedback/criticism.

I love everyone in all branches of this thread now.
Wait. Were we somehow expecting more from a live-action MODOK?
I’ve hated his guts since he started speaking out, but that’s because he’s just correct enough and has the moral standing enough that I have nothing to use against him and his pro-gun-control platform.
He’s a DNC shill, but whether he’s a kool-aid-drinker or just using them(no sign of that, but this coin-operated boy can hope), I can’t help but wish him the best after what he’s been through.
His progress is exceptional, but far from impossible, without doping. He was in the right age-bracket for it as well.
The corpos’ owners’ own “need” for shell-corporations, astro-turfing, bot-follower-accounts and such will torpedo this. The internet is going to suck for anyone that spends too much effort on playing by the rules, but that’s already true.
Oh, and don’t get me started on the inevitable impacts on advertisers’ bottom-lines and corpo-providers’ exposure to liability.
Basically, those who have the power who might toy with thinking or saying they want this, don’t really, and those who are most certain they want this have neither the power nor understanding to make it happen.
Thanks for reminding me I’m not being loud enough at night. Gotta keep them potential Luigi’s sleep-deprived, I guess?
35lbs is the single heaviest weight I have at the moment, and honestly, that’s for workouts, not precise measurement. In all honesty, I mostly brought up weights and measures to explain what I meant by “reference materials” as a seperate category that happens to include some books, and is far from confined to them.
All that said, the single most extreme or “esoteric” such thing I own is a 24x36x6inch granite surface-plate I got free when some jackass abandoned it in his girl-friend’s garage. No idea the quality or weight of it.
Literally me. The only wealth I put stock in is family, friends, food, tools, reference materials and books.
No, I didn’t list books twice. There’s a lot of shows I keep copies of, also posters, weights, standard measures and such.
There’s a new IU Medschool downtown.
Three now. Assuming you count the med-school.

… yeah, I like your way better.
I always felt Eville was a better fit than “e is for everyone”, which while technically not a lie, implies everyone here is friendly, when its more like, everyone can find a niche if they reeeaally want to.
Their supreme pizza is good enough, I’ll allow it. Bar patrons are bound to order weird shit.
Android has it. As does Windows, for taskbar icons anyways.
Unclear, but they are saying it will affect side-loaded apps, and no way to bypass with Developer Options, so I would assume so.
