I guess I'm lucky and actually find both the native chrome groups and the firefox simple tab group addon that uses hidden tabs equally good approaches.

Specially since the tab groups work with the multiaccount container feature. With Chrome, I generally keep separate guest accounts and windows for that, because the sessions are bit messy otherwise.

Man's 3 poignant inquiries away from peddling Brave. Tread carefully folks.

It's not a joke. But it's not sincere either.

It's a criticism.

Because yes. People DO want brand tie-ins. Literally look at Fortnite. It peaks in popularity during brand tie-ins.

Yeah. I'm of the same mind. I was here to witness the resurgence of Boomer and Movement Shooters. Now, we're in the cusp of the resurgence of RTS. I am very much happy with the state of gaming, without having to focus on sequels.

The last game published by 505 I played were apparently Indivisible, which was trash. I never played Ghostrunner nor Control which basically eliminates most of their notable recent output. I think I can safely say I'll be fine with my continued ignoring of them as a publisher.

I have never been in a company that had it all.

I was in one with all of the proper setup, fucking 10/10 CI pipelines, tests, the works. Someone just made stellar templates. 0 documentation tho and if you need to launch something in dev, get fucked. 0 task management, minimal meetings, barely a trello, and often you'd be like "okay what I do now?".

Just get her into something repetitive but productive. Like knitting or cross stitch. Same motion, over and over. But something comes out of it.

Or speedrunning. Get them twitch bux. Infinite hole to consume someone's mind rather than body

I think some deathcults where the whole point is "live to 50, throw a massive party for the cult and go on a month long vacation, then kill yourself" might get some members. But they won't really be that influential.

Most likely will be the rise of the "work the least possible, care the least possible" culture. China already saw it happen, it was called "Lying flat".

Don't watch kurzgesagt's video on "South Korea"* getting older, if you don't want to know the awful answer to that.

People will have and get social security paid. But the environment wars and mass immigration will be the answer, which means you'll be looking at 20 years of conservatives bitching and whining.

Want to avoid it on a personal level? Emigrate to north europe. Sad, but it is what it is.

* video is more general than that. But they used korea as the clickbait.

Just found out google will mess with you and demand a captcha if you're on a VPN in certain locations. They're absolutely trying to ruin every single aspect of the internet they can.

Why would it need to create energy and mass out of nothing? Why are assuming the energy either comes from nothing or wasn't already there. Or better yet, that nothing as a source is a problem to begin with?

Conservation of energy applies to a universe. There are no such rules written out for imaginary multiversal mechanics. The "but mass and energy" thing gets thrown in the trash long before we reach this point, we stopped talking about matters of mass and energy two paragraphs ago. It's the same as asking "but why CAN you fly in your dreams? What about gravity, what happened to it?".

They don't exist. No one can prove otherwise yet. They're as bullshit as whatever we want them to be.
