Not saying it doesn't happen but I've seen this said a few times now, and have never heard of anyone who actually refuses to clean their arse. Have I just lived a sheltered life or what?

When I was looking for a new phone I gave up and bought a usb c dac/amp from Fiio. Ended up buying a phone from Sony which does have a 3.5 port (and sd card too) but continue to use the dongle anyway as it sounds better. Use it 2-3 times a week

Honestly expected to roll my eyes at the article (especially as it's from the times) but this looks like a great initiative and Kariem El-Boghdadly who designed it, from an admittedly brief search for him, seems to know his onions. Not bad at all

I semi remember an interview with the guy from nickelback who said (obviously paraphrasing) that he studied the songs that reached number one in the rock chart, and noted that, ok they have this tempo, they have a key change here, etc etc, and set out to make a song that had those qualities. very successfully as it turned out.

there's the same sort of essential cynicism (and subsequent success) with the oatmeal

I agree with the point but it is kind of funny to see the oatmeal, the nickelback of comics, complaining about it

referring to your cat as your 'child' isn't cute, it's fucking stupid

regardless of what bullshit gets posted on twitter or facebook or wherever, anonimity on the internet (and irl where practical) is fine and good in its own right and your ability to remain anonymous should be preserved

40 years counts as quite a long time in american history i suppose

this is fair but then why hold a public vote at all when it has next to no chance of affecting the outcome anyway?

Starfield was 60 pretty ok hours on game pass, I personally have nothing against it, don't care about it much. But those who actually give a shit about The Game Awards: why? Slim list of nominees, several categories total bollocks anyway, judges vote worth 90% against 10% crumbs to the public vote ( see 'how are winners selected' https://thegameawards.com/faq )
