Omniscient perspective is easy if you’re making a 2d game.

Define clean? If there are dishes, you do them yourself. If you make a massive mess you clean it yourself to avoid fees. At the end of the stay you generally do something simple like toss all used bedding into one spot. Sometimes they expect you to start laundry by putting all towels in the washer. So, yeah, sort of, but there’s a massive difference between cleaning up after yourself and starting the laundry compared to sanitizing everything, vacuuming everything, etc.

Let me put it like this. I hate house keeping. It’s the worst. I’ve never viewed the check out requirements at any of the places I stayed as too much. Sure, there’s the occasional nightmare scenario, but hotels have nightmares too.

Yeah I am very annoyed there aren’t many (or any?) very compact adapters.

The problem is that getting a new standard is gonna just mean more of the same shit with like a good ten years of swapping because USB is so widely used. USB ain’t perfect, I dislike a lot of things about it, but starting from scratch isn’t gonna improve things.

If it was the sort of magical scenario where everyone swapped overnight, hell yeah.

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking of.

Rent a house instead of a hotel room. We’ve used that and other services like VRBO to rent cabins in the mountains. There’s nothing really “special” about it and it’s not really different from those other services like VRBO that came before. I think originally the difference was letting people rent a spare room, but I’ve personally never met anyone who has used that functionality (leasing or renting side).

Like the old USB micros sort of?

You end with

The “fistful of different cables to keep track of” is only getting worse as we head into the USB4 era and it needs to be kicked in the head and replaced entirely.

But started with

need an entirely unrelated team to invent something entirely new to replace it

You want more cables?

HDMI does not have screws.

It’s very annoying to have managers say their hands are tied when they very well could go to bat for you with their superiors. I was lucky to have one manager really push for me in the past like that. It’s rare.

FREE ME FROM YOUR GRASP, CURSED FLOWER!

The worse things get in my life the more I feel like this. I believe it’s a consequence of being raised Christian. (Though I am an atheist now.) When I was younger I believed God never gives you more than you can handle. So when things got bad it felt like God was breaking that promise. Now that I’m older it feels like “bad writing.” Like, really? This many bad things in such a short time period? It’s a little on the nose, isn’t it? It’s why I can’t rewatch I saw the TV Glow until I know I am in a very stable mental place.

The irony being that I have been going through a bit of a gender journey for a while and knew the movie had themes to do with that, but none of that really hot anywhere close to home as the rest mentioned above. I’m just glad I planned to see it surrounded by friends.

The idea that there’s an escape hatch on reality is so alluring. The idea that all the bad things in your life are the fault of one person, even if they’re a metaphysical entity, is so appealing. The sad reality is that it’s all random and sometimes we just get unlucky streaks.

Yeah, no shit, thank you for repeating what I said. The point being I never cared about the money and didn’t even understand it was only about the money. I only wanted recognition.

I fought for getting a 4/5 rating at an old job and gave lots of examples. Their argument was that I didn’t deserve it because those were just expected. I pointed out my work compared to others in my team and was told that it compares across the company, not the team. I kept causing a fuss about it because I was so angry about it and finally my manager said something about the bonuses has already been communicated and people would be angry to get less. I was confused because I didn’t want more money, I was just offended they said I was performing on average when I was going above and beyond every day. It was also really embarrassing to me. If they’d just said the rating doesn’t affect anything except your bonus I wouldn’t have even cared.

The whole thing is all BS.

OP, just use hyper focus as a super power!

/s obviously.

I had someone saying this one. That hyper focus is a super power. As if I can ever control what it’s focused on or when I get it. I really dislike when people try to make ADHD seem like something useful and quirky instead of something debilitating.

If only they’d put all the slop under one sub domain!

Why is OP searching for it?

It’s YouTube.

I think a lot of forms of ads are ableist because of this. You are not alone. They’re so distracting. It’s infuriating.
