mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What does China achieve from invading Taiwan?English62·9 days agoOf course, Taiwan is kind of protected by the US, the dominant superpower of the time. But they are struggling, looking weak.
Keep in mind that China is struggling as well. Their debt problems are several times worse than the US, so they could suffer a major recession within the next few years if a significant disruption like war happens.
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What should be done with the unemployable people?English2·12 days agoI lean more on the Universal Maximum Income where everything above a threshold is taxed
You literally just described the progressive tax system that every developed country has today
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•A game you "didn't know it was bad 'til people told you so"?English2·27 days agoTo be honest, I think it had a decent chance to be Fallout 5, but in space. Maybe if they doubled the number of companions (read: not followers) and put all the new ones in different factions. I honestly expected the lady who pulls you into the gang in the ocean city would be a follower with how fleshed out she was
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•A game you "didn't know it was bad 'til people told you so"?English5·27 days agoPlus, there’s a “all my homies hate skrillex” effect here; the series is massively more popular now, but the newcomers have a different idea of what makes a zelda game a zelda game.
This is wht I don’t play Warframe anymore. I started back when crowd control was crucial, and played Nyx almost constantly. But after Mesa was added, the game slowly shifted to being more focussed on killing enemies as fast as possible. I finally quit the game from a combination of the mods going crazy and newer players berating me in chat for playing as Nyx despite me dealing most of the damage in the mission we were playing.
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•A game you "didn't know it was bad 'til people told you so"?English4·27 days agoOverall, I enjoyed my experience with Starfield. I just wish I didn’t spend half of my time trying to build the optimal bases for trading hubs. Apart from that, everything was good
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Theory on being nice to Ai?English5·28 days agoJust to piggyback off your comment, Roko’s Basilisk is what created the Zizzians, a group of people who drove themselves crazy with these logic puzzle to the point that they started a pseudo-cult and started murdering people a couple of years ago. There’s a couple of episodes of Behind the Bastards featurinf them if anyone wants to know more.
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think Lemmy has a culture separate from Reddit or is it basically the same?English4·28 days agoYou clearly have never visited r/beansinthings

mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you pay for your cellular service?English3·3 months agoWhich service is this?
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you pay for your cellular service?English4·3 months agoUS, $25/month through Visible for unlimited call, text, and data
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Hope y'all are having a very NULL QA dayEnglish253·3 months agoAh, yes. Little Bobby Tables
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I need relationship advice? This hurts a lotEnglish33·3 months agoThis needs to be higher up. Enough guys on the internet are going to be creeps that it’s something you need to look out for, but that risk gets even higher when they feel entitled to it by paying you for your time.
There are a couple of breadcrumbs in the post that hint that OP’s boyfriend might be a bit controlling, but nothing concrete. Personally, I wouldn’t feel comfortable dating someone that was actively talking to random guys on the internet for money. And OP’s post makes it seem like she keeps going back and forth on whether or not she’s okay with accepting money…
Not saying the guy is innocent, but OP also seems like a mess that needs to spend time to work on themselves before trying to date
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•27F, what to do with my life?English13·4 months agoTo me business and economics sounds like the more flexible one, but that’s not always a good thing cause being less “specialized” can mean lower value, at least for some job positions…
Depends on what skills you’re leveraging. You mentioned knowing 3 different languages, which might be rare depending on where you live. You could possibly go into organizing imports and exports. I know someone who went into that with a bachelors in business
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•A relatable situationEnglish23·5 months agoFor me, sometimes the solution hits me like a train while I’m taking my morning shower. And I usually am not thinking about code either
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a community that advises PC builds?English103·5 months agoNot a community, but I recommend logicalincrements.com if you’re starting with a build. Pick a budget and it gives 3 different, balanced builds that match that budget. Use that as a starting point and modify from there
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there an authoritative BEST secure messaging app for my phone? Is it Signal? It's hard to keep up?English23·5 months agoI thought Russia owned it
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there an authoritative BEST secure messaging app for my phone? Is it Signal? It's hard to keep up?English23·5 months agoWhoever built that website really needs to fix the hitbox on the ‘X’ when you’re done reading the popups. Or instead of trying to show off with JavaScript they can just have a separate page like most websites

For one, polyester fabric and clothes are just terrible
Two, technically you can 3d print a chainmail shirt, but it’d suck to wear normally
