I am familiar with the concept, perhaps a bit too familiar in that I'm in my late 40s now and have delayed gratificaiton for so long, because it never seemed the time to change habits, that I now deeply regret it. There are ways to over-seek current gratificaiton - never saving anything and stuff like that, but I now think that it's not worth spending even a single year in this kind of situation, and even (legally or culturally) allowing these kinds of jobs in a society is a mistake because it creates pressure for more people to take unsustainable jobs, perhaps longer term.

I would ban this kind of thing were I able to. I would do my best to shame companies that work this way, ideally as part of a movement that would make it not commercially viable to have such labour violations. All jobs must be sustainable and reasonable.

There's everything wrong with this, no matter the pay. What's the point of having a well-paying job if there's no room left for living a life outside the work hours?

Important we keep malware out of games. Raise a fuss, extinguish any hype around games with the Denuvo malware.

Many parts of the world take some time and effort to grok. Analogue clocks, fortunately, are not that. A 5-minute explanation and then some getting used to it are as much depth as people need to reach full fluency.

I'd save my worries for the people who haven't learned to read, or something else that takes some sustained effort.

I use Firefox and Thunderbird. They're nice. I'm not interested in AI, and I don't get why the org would bet the farm on it. I get that it's hard to keep Mozilla funded, and they may need to get creative somehow, but this isn't the way. It's not what people use Firefox for, and it's not exploring an obviously profitable direction.

It's great to see the old Zorks released under a good license, but it's unfortunate that Jason Scott, an internet troll, is at all involved in the process. Best to completely avoid anything to do with that guy.

Latin may be useful. Cursive is worthless.

Are they not doing music anymore for each release?

I'd be good to instead or additionally look into redesigning or banning sports that involve frequent head trauma.

Would be good to see other nations interfere in their mining efforts until we have more comprehensive international agreements around mining and we're sure it would not interfere with any current or future scientific efforts.

I'm sure those keyboards are great for some crowd, but it's not the Model M crowd and trolling by pretending the model m crowd's preferences are obsolete and your preferences are better is unwelcome. Grow up.

Anyone know if it needs batteries while plugged into USB-C?

Just like all the other misguided stuff from this admin, hopefully the next sensible admin will undo all this and potentially push all financial institutions to disconnect from cryptocurrencies.

The energy cost needed to lift people into space is enormous. A lot of this is basic physics, and it's going to be difficult to get around both the resource spend and pollution in that.

(People probably fly too much, and even now somewhere around 20% of humans has ever been in a plane)

A) There's more radiation in space
B) Getting people to space puts their bodies under a lot of stress, and has its own risks
C) Most environments in space are not that clean/healthy even apart from the radiation
D) The costs involved make all this impractical for all but the very richest of people
