The current gas prices are normal, a year ago they were very far below normal.

This was true in 2019 as well. We were at 5% unemployment, now we're at 6.1%. Everyone collecting unemployment right now is tracked in that unemployment number. The idea that we're in some kind of crisis compared to say 2007-2010 is laughable. Despite COVID and our best efforts to fuck up...

There's just no fucking subtlety or nuance in nearly any writing. It's why cartoons like Rick and Morty and Bojack Horseman are refreshing; they're actually well-written, where most of the shit we get from these big budget, live-action streaming shows so utterly dumbed down. I've been watching...

You didn't actually counter his statement. I definitely noped out of fooling around with a trans girl who was clearly very interested in sex when I was not very interested in sex.

I think most of the things that get complained about are not actually the things holding the game back. Conduit energy is stupid, but it doesn't impact everyone. Covenants being a difficult meaningful decision is not a game breaking issue. Most of the veteran players I know that came back to...

My ETHE Greyscale shares are stonksing all the way to the moon.

You're missing the point, still. Is that 10% of 450k creators or 10% of 2mil creators? There's a big fucking difference.

Okay so now chop 3 quartiles off those charts off and they look a lot like a normal pareto distribution.

Probably not a big deal since overall pie is growing at such a rapid rate. So there should still be around the same number of AAA games a year even if their slice of the overall growing pie is smaller. A lot of these annual releases can be shifted to a F2P model and no one will care.

You're missing the fucking point. "2 million creator accounts" is not "2 million active daily creators." Those numbers don't mean what you think they mean.

How is Onlyfans a pyramid scheme if there's no barrier to entry? 2 million would-be whores created an account, probably 80% of them posted between 0 and 3 photos and never logged in again. The fact that 300 thots have become millionaires is astounding. In the traditional pornography model, I...

No I meant the stock market in general. Robinhood has gotten kids investing big chunks of money in the stock market at much younger ages than they normally would. Especially the kids who had nothing to do with their fun-money all pandemic.

Zoomers playing around on Robinhood is what's propping up the market.

I had no idea so many people had gotten themselves banned.

They are really pumping out content.

To me, the coins are meaningless; you're investing in a technology upon which a future payment processing and/or smart contract validating platform can be built. I'm convinced that Ethereum is likely the future of both.

I'm not concerned about the wallets, you're either intentionally misunderstanding the problem or stupid.

I know how all the pieces work but I'm not looking to fuck around playing the 2021 equivalent of Dopewars for nickels. I'm investing over 100k in Ethereum and all that bullshit is way too insecure.

I've lived on the internet since 14.4k modems existed and I find the process of buying and selling crypto to be extremely obfuscated and riddled with ridiculous fees and not worth it. I ended up purchasing tons of greyscale ETHE shares instead. I imagine the crypto market will explode when an...

lol I'm about to paperhands the fuck out.

Yeah I went back and added Fury Road before I saw this.

Update: I reduced the level of bias by 100%.

What is the best movie of the past 20 years?

There never should have been more than 5 books. The basic structure is a 3 act story: Act 1: Guy is warning people about the winter/white walkers (aka climate change) but petty, shortsighted people just want to play politics instead. Act 2: People continue to play politics, white walkers show...

Are you seriously surprised by this? It wasn't obvious from halfway through the first book? Are you just fucking dumb?

I wanted to buy a house around here but they're all 1.5 million dollars.

Speaking of which, someone in one of my high school programming classes made his final project a side-scrolling Gradius III clone called "Scrotius VI", and the end boss of the single level was a giant ballsack, but the graphics were a mix of low res and ASCII so the teacher either didn't even...

I wasn't talking about you lol, I was talking about the picture.

lol facebook nope.

They're really nice actually. The perfect keyboard for me would be a K70 TKL with the K95's macro keys but they'll never make that.

WOTC should definitely make a new NFT-based digital collectible game. Maybe one with digital figures that roll truly unique stats. It'll either be the next big thing or a huge flop but they have the means to do it and they might as well try.

Where do original arts go up for sale?

I bought so much ETH specifically because I thought the gamblers would flee doge to ETH after the hype.

Video hosting costs a lot and isn't profitable if all your customers are smart people who use ad-blockers.

Well, that's assuming there aren't a bunch of things that reduce the cost of dragons. :P
