I live in an area know for having some of the better public transport in the states. My drive to work is about 25 minutes. I can bus to work, but it takes almost three hours and three separate busses, and then I cannot bus home after work.

I mean… They aren’t? Maybe do some cursory research yourself instead of making bad faith Lemmy posts?

Souls games autosave constantly, you can quit out at any time and reload to where you were. The only exception being that if you quit out during a boss fight you’ll have to restart.

Every trans person’s journey is their own, and ultimately it’s about pursuing what brings you, in your life, joy. I don’t believe in your god, but I did for a long time, so I understand a lot about christian doctrine, and I genuinely don’t think there’s any conflict between being trans and being a christian. However, I would posit this: “Biological Sex” is not a nice clean binary, and understanding of it based on the assumption that it is, is flawed. I would encourage you to stand up for your boundaries, for the name and pronouns you want to be called, those aren’t lies. Your happiness is more important than other people’s flawed views of gender and sex.

People’s value doesn’t lie in their ability to perform labor. Being “useful” isn’t important. What should be done, is that everyone should have their needs met so they can do with their lives what they want. There’s a lot of theoretical ways to try and do that, but none of them are of interest in a capitalist society.

I’m sorry, but committing crimes doesn’t mean you don’t still have a right to be treated humanely in state custody.

I disagree. My phone has perfectly acceptable battery life and a 3.5mm jack, I use it all day and get home with over 40% left every day. I need the jack to use my earbuds at work, and to listen to music in my car - and I’m gonna be honest with you something as small as an adapter WILL get lost by me. Everyone’s got a different use case, and it might not be important for you, but your use case isn’t everyone’s.

It doesn’t have to be people per se, find what brings you those sparks of joy in your life and don’t let them go.

“The horrors persist, yet so do I”. The world sucks, but I have things I care about, people I love, some wonderful cats. And I’m not gonna let a fucked up world take that away from me without a fight

eBay. Better not to buy tech new.

I think it’s incredibly overrated. Modern games already look incredible without it, so I really don’t think it’s worth the cut in performance.

Nice try FBI

I have time to play videogames, and it’s my primary hobby - but I also don’t date nor have any interest in having kids. I imagine it’s a lot harder for people with romantic lives or kids.

Or you could just… watch better movies.

It’s sad that so many people are willing to buy new devices with lithium ion batteries in them when much of the cobalt used in the production of them is mined via slave labor in Congo. I’m sorry but open world Mario kart and higher fps in your games isn’t worth slavery.

Sure, but it makes it impossible for anyone that doesn’t have a smartphone with Bluetooth to use them, and makes me have another account I don’t want, among other issues. If the apartment’s WiFi has issues, the machines lose connection and you can’t use them, It’s a vastly worse experience then using quarters or even just a card reader.

Why does every apartment I ever live in now never have laundry in unit, and requires you use a mobile app w/ an account to pay to do laundry. Why do I need to load a digital wallet that requires I pay a fee if I only want to add just the amount for one load? It’s absurd. Let me put quarters in.
