SCP-001 When Day Breaks. Fucked me up for weeks. 10/10 excellent story.

What side of this debate am I on if I have a dedicated gaming PC that stays plugged into the TV, that I interact with exclusively through a gamepad? Or my buddy who plays Xbox on a monitor at his desk? This isn't about PC or console, this is about couch vs desk.

It's all too common when anti-phrenology people don't understand phreno101.

this. milk is fucking disgusting.

yes because having assigned reading material directly and specifically relevant to the subject of the class is exactly the same as registering for a website full of shitposts and propaganda bots. remember when you got all that spam from opening your textbook, and there was an entire chapter calling you out for being a little bitch?

that's the stupidest comparison i've ever heard.

"hey there's this thing called lemmy, check it out some time" <- leading a horse to water

"ok you have to register an account on lemmy, it's part of your grade" <- shoving a hose down the horse's throat and cranking the spigot

requiring my students to create Lemmy accounts

No. Nobody likes registering accounts for random services because an authority figure told them they had to, I feel like if it were me I would do the bare minimum of interacting that I was required to and never look at the service again out of resentment.

I've been saying for eight years he'd be more dangerous as a martyr than his stupid alive self.

right now mine has manjaro+cinnamon. i booted my wife's Win11 laptop to it so she could test drive it and within ten minutes she was asking how to get to the installer. i hope to repeat this process with others as well.

I spent most of my 20s alone, and met the woman I married at age 33. It's never too late.
