The recall is redundant, it should just be a notice that butter contains milk, and stickers for any leftover inventory.
Collecting it and destroying it like it’s poison is silly. If your allergic to milk, you probably should not be buying butter.
Firefox lets you set default site settings, make the default site setting disable autoplay audio and video.
For sites where you know you trust the video, you can do a per site permission in the URL bar saying autoplay is allowed for like YouTube
It’s a good video, the commentary was well thought out. Thank you for posting it
Never go to a place because it’s popular, if you wouldn’t go there if nobody else was there, you probably won’t enjoy it when other people are there.
If you have a deep and strong interest in a place or a thing, it’s great to visit no matter what. Low season might be better
true… but you could say that about anything, just trying new strategies

Don’t eat a entire box of thin mints.
Inform their family, depending on how nice the local police are - ask them to do a wellness check.
For your personal mental well being, I would recommend going low contact with a suicidal person, they will drag you into their drama and pull you down.
Its kind of live action, and you do roleplay whatever you want to be. But yeah I agree it’s not the perfect use of the word.
Cyberpunk is a role-playing game in that you have a role to play, but it is not a role-playing game where you determine your own destiny and have significant impact on the outcome.
I don’t know if there’s better ways to express that thinking, ARPG versus CRPG? But that lacks nuance as well
Year 1 you buy it for X
Year N you sell it for Y
Y>X, so profit? Not exactly.
What else could you have invested in? A low cost whole market index fund for example has an average rate of return of 7%. In fact, it’s the gold standard of returns comparisons.
Money has opportunity cost, time in market is important, money invested in gold, cannot be invested in other things. So you have to factor that into the profitability calculation.
The theory about gold, is it holds its value, so if you could buy 10 Big Macs for x dollars in year one. In year N when you sell for y dollars, you can still buy 10 Big Macs. That’s the goal. You have more dollars then you started with, but you have the same Big Mac purchasing capacity. Because your real world good purchasing power didn’t increase, it wasn’t a profitable venture.
Technically speaking, gold is not an investment. It is a hedge. The theory is gold maintains its value very consistently, but does not grow in value.
Gold appears to have growth because The price increases over time, but that’s just a function of inflation in whatever currency you’re denominating it by.
It’s pretty good. I don’t think it’s $30 good. But it’s pretty good, I would put it in the class of interactive fiction, an in-depth visual novel.
As far as role-playing goes, it’s good for LARPing, but you don’t really get to craft your own story. There’s lots of rails, there are narrative branches but they all come back to the same place.
Kind of like a very well done Bethesda narrative environment, some okay storylines, some amazing storylines. It’s all on rails, you can do it in different orders. It’s a good immersion game.
I genuinely think they are. Look at how they frame their question, they didn’t say they were on the verge of suicide at this moment, they just implied it heavily. That is a tactic to manipulate people and conversations. So I think their assessment is accurate.
I know you’re being extremely sarcastic. But identifying you have a problem is the first step to recovery. Knowing you are a way that you don’t like being, is great, now you can form a plan on improving it.
Let’s take the easy example, if you know you’re a very negative person always putting people down. You can deliberately try to find something nice to say everyday. Maybe not a lot, maybe it won’t change the trend, but being more mindful and having an objective is a way to improve. So yes flip the switch. The switch will be very rusty, it’ll require a lot of elbow grease, and you’re probably going to have to wiggle it a bunch. But flip the switch, because you want to flip the switch.
If you just decide, I’m an asshole and there’s nothing I can do about it, then you’re just going to be an asshole. But if you’re trying to be a reformed asshole, you’re an asshole with a heart of gold
That’s great! Keep up the good work!
If you don’t want to be an emotional abuser, and you’re aware that you are, why not change your behavior?
