I gamble very rarely and am fully aware of its expectation value. But when I do gamble I still enjoy it, in the same way I might enjoy an amusement ride. Sure I part with some of my money but it’s just the fee for some thrill and entertainment. Roulette can actually be fairly cheap and a nice way of socializing with others.

If you start thinking of it as a way to earn rather than waste your money, you’re lost.

It kinda makes sense at the back of the car, less so at the front

APK and APKS are just renamed zip files

The key feature is that there’s a mechanism that limits supply. Other than that, value only exists because enough people agree that it has value. Fiat currency is exactly the same in this regard.

I think your questions indicate that you don’t have sufficient understanding of how “ordinary” money works. It’s just a promise of being able to exchange it for goods & services in the future, and its value hinges on people trusting that promise.

Long cutscenes that don’t let you save or pause when anything comes up that forces you to leave the keyboard or just focus elsewhere.

“Control” was the worst wrt this (or was it Quantum Break? Maybe both). I was just about to go to bed when it showed me a “cutscene” that went on for more than 30 minutes. Turned out later that you could actually go back to watch it again afterwards, but there was no indication of that at the time.

But why is it human nature to put a bench right where people are walking. It’s like people in charge get off on creating obstacles for the common man just to feel powerful.

I’m in stitches

Oh they’re “innovating” just not for the benefit of their users

Whoever gets there first gets the banana

They would never admit to being anything that starts with “homo”

What the fuck is missing in the brain of these people. I feel like they are a different species.

What did you mean to say??

I know my limitations so as a rule I always set an alarm on my phone whenever I put a drink in the freezer

He is a little shit, he’s full of shit, ergo he’s full of himself

Wikipedia may even outlive humanity, ever so slightly.

Yes

Is this why I wake up at 3.30 with anxiety over something embarrassing I did when I was 15? It was my memory foam pillow all along.

If you’re into doing these kinds of projects I wholeheartedly recommend Sebastian Lague’s YouTube channel. Each video is a new project and it is presented in an accessible and inspiring way.

“Nice beaver!”

“Thank you! I just had it stuffed.”
