That’s not as reliable as you’d might think.

King’s Bounty 2 is on a near permanent 90% sale and the owning company considers it completely done… and forgotten.

Or there’s some weird eternally Early Access games always on a 96% sale, but they’ve been in an abandoned state for years.

See, the problem is that a Marxist and an anarchist stuck around a liberal and a fascist. Not only that, they spent all that time doing nothing, even though there was a gun in the room and two bullets. Looks to me like the Marxist and the anarchist were kinda dumb.

If reality so good, why does the mind prefer dreaming?

Are you sure about that first one?

Can confirm. Do not operate as fuckwit. Minimum level recommended as fuckwad instead.

There’s a VP that could give it a good tumble, if you don’t mind it getting stained.

Ah, but is there foreign interest to allow stability and support?

But I wanna win!

It appeared for me as well. As the second result, under “Limited-time events”, first result was Firefox. What followed below in the “More results” were the rest of the Firefox variants.

Whoa! Deja Vu!

People don’t know legal stuff inside out as a permanent memory. They need time to read the materials and understand what they can do legally.

Thus, ‘malicious compliance’ is resisting by following the laws to the letter and ‘compliant compliance’ is not giving a shit about the laws.

Great speech, really, but why aren’t you getting it? It’s not about you or me or the commenter i started the chain with. This was their comment:

… do people actually do that? As in, is strong jealousy really a thing?

I’d like to believe that each of us builds their life into the exact thing they need, so swapping places with anyone else would be terribly uncomfortable. So I can’t relate as to why anyone would ever be jealous i guess haha

Are you and all the people up voting that comment really unable to grasp that there are people who actually do that? That strong jealousy really is a thing?

You kept deviating with your own sad stories, hope and self-control and get out from the bad environment.

But this is about them, the people that get left behind, that don’t crawl out and escape, that don’t get to build their lives into the exact thing they need. So that swapping places with literally anyone else would be fucking awesome to them.

That’s why I said you’re sitting on a high horse, you can’t seem to relate to them.

God job on making it out though. Though they might have moments of jealousy, I’m sure most of the people that couldn’t do the same are proud and thankful you can be an example to them. (Not sarcasm, if you’re interpreting that way. You only saw those earlier examples and seemed deadset on them being the only kind there is.)

Other post on topic had comment on new shipping lanes near Arctic thawing and already being used by Chinese ships illegally and the rich fucks want control.

You don’t seem to understand. There is no country on this planet that doesn’t have at least one abnormal living environment within. And the people living in such types of environment don’t have the luxury of entertaining your kind of psychological snobbism/elitism.

You talk of ideals, not reality. From the role of an observer, not a participant. Your advice is superficial nonsense from a position of safety and comfort.

I mean, what planet have you been living on until now?

Easy to beat. Just surround him with senators and stab him in the back with his own queen.

An average person doesn’t mechanically compartmentalize emotions and puts them aside because they aren’t “productive solutions”.

It’s good for you that you’ve managed this kind of selfcontrol in order to improve your life. But that’s because you’ve numbed down the things that do you harm.

A person that isn’t depressed doesn’t have that kind of ‘benefit’. Emotions run freely and wild without fear. And cause all kinds of trouble.

Lovers being jealous of outside attention to the point of madness.

Siblings being jealous of biased parental love to end up estranged.

Children in patched up clothes on the streets begging or on the fields working - being jealous of children dressed in brand new school uniforms and going to school together.

Any person in a hospital bed with a terminal illness watching through the window the world living a life they can’t have.

And so many other examples…

Productive solutions don’t mean shit when it comes to strong emotions and jealousy can be very strong at times. Strong enough to murder even. I mean forget about the world-ending news regurgitation, at the local level where the average person lives, jealousy is high up in ranking as a reason for commiting crimes.

Pardon me, but you sound very privileged here, in the spiritual sense of “stop being poor” or “just don’t be depressed” etc.

If that was your intention, you’ve succeeded admirably.

Not necessarily. As free and open as it is, not everyone can add to it. There have been some caught, yet almost successful attempts to insert malicious code in open source software.

Also, the contributors might be passing on the torch thinking in the same way. And far as I remember, the original devs did a similar thing by letting others add in whatever.

So I’d say that until someone says they’re specifically working on it, nobody actually is.

I wish you both well and that you’ll find trustworthy friends.

Remember to take care. There are those online who target children that can be easily isolated, purely out of malice.

As a passerby, my opinion is that it would be safer to find already established groups involving her hobbies and let her participate freely and openly. Then any natural social connections formed can be tackled on individually.
