The US music industry has always been bullshit, going all the way back to record labels. I would feel bad for the artists, but I don't give two shits about the distributor who acts like they own the music and feels entitled to all monetary rewards for someone else's work.

Starcraft 2 is super fun as a randomizer in the RTS format, but I do want to see more done with that IP. The problem is, like you, I will never give Blizzard a single penny ever again.

I live in the US and I dont trust US companies with my data either. They either sell it or are handled by easily exploitable systems developed offshore in India.

So, in that sense I do not trust the US, China, India, or Russia with my data and avoid software developed in any of these places when feasibly possible.

Having a prime number in the box makes fights more likely since it isnt divisible. If you are sharing, somebody is going to miss out.

The cost of a 2 bedroom apartment has doubled over the last decade. Groceries are up 50% and I have found that the food I buy is spoiling way before the best by date, as if stores are not properly handling their merchandise due to cut regulations.

Despite getting small yearly raises my spending power has not increased at all.

Im fairly quick to block, especially if the person is clearly acting with bad intent. Id rather have slow and steady high quality content than mediocre garbage every few seconds. Social media does not consume my life and I lived in the era of forums. I am used to waiting for good content.

This is by design. They dont want EVs to be popular, so they make them unaffordable to prevent widespread adoption. They dont even sell entry level EVs in the US. The Leaf may be the only exception.

If it works I will not be picky.

Exactly my thought. I got into software development because designing and writing good code is fun. It is almost a game to see how well you can optimize it while keeping it maintainable. Why would I let something else do that for me? I am a software engineer, not a prompt writer.

AI is actually SUPER good at this and is one of the few places I think AI should be used (as one of many tools, ignoring the awful environmental impacts of AI and assuming an on-prem model). AI is also good at detecting code performance issues.

With that said, all of the fix recommendations should be fixed by hand.
