Ditto on the voices. Male voice sounds like a tin robot and it's distracting.

This is a direct copypaste from a Claude chat. God save us all.

In other words, dropshipping?

It's the opposite for me. I don't use bash.exe on my Windows machine and it is the first match when I type "bash". "Git Bash" is the second best match. I have no other results. Windows 10 Home Edition 10.0.19045.

If most people lack certain things and other people do not, it doesn't give them the right to complain just because of that.

Companies can dictate how workers work, and it's up to the worker to decide whether they agree to these conditions or not.

It may not seem fair, but you have to look at the bigger picture, and understand how the situation came to be in the first place.

So what? CEOs also get paid more. Where is this crying coming from? Create a company, become a CEO, do whatever you want.

Looking forward to my business trip to Portland in a few weeks... The place where I am going is right in the middle of the big red blob, when the "Assault" is selected. Is it really that bad?

You're witnessing the contributions of perhaps a thousand people here on HN, but keep in mind there are millions of silent lurkers who feel exactly as you do. You are not mediocre; you are simply not the best.

high_pathetic — Thu, 25 Apr 2024 20:23:48 +0000

I got slower and can't compete with younger players while playing action or even RTS. The other day I decided to give AoE2 a go and was quickly obliterated (and yelled at) by the online competitors. I have also developed a certain sense for patterns and game logics quickly become repetitive and boring.

Thirties is the age when I actually stopped being a child and started showing signs of maturity. You're still young although it might not feel like this to you. Do not despair, that's the last thing you should do.
