You’re conflating the meme’s argument with a whole host of problems designed to segregate and let companies profiteer off of single-family housing.

Anything from Mischief Theatre! They have their “Peter Pan Goes Wrong” for free on youtube atm.

I never stated I don’t personally agree with the premise

caused some controversy from what I’ve seen

If you look up “Capitalism is good Sabine” on Youtube you’ll see all the videos I was referring to. I was actually giving the original video the “benefit of the doubt” versus how many counter videos were out there.

While all of that is true, I don’t feel like that’s a stance I wish to take. How do you bridge that gap so that other’s can come out of that space? Berating a child for their beliefs does little in the long run if they have an echo chamber they can retreat to. I completely understand if that’s not your concern and you would rather not waste the time with science deniers, it can be dangerous and frustrating as you’ve stated.

Very true, any recommendations that you enjoy? For the most part as I stated it’s useful for certain topics that come up when someone’s discussing some woowoo, it’s hard for them to sit down and go through a whole course when the context of what they’re discussing doesn’t come up. There’s also the problem of being slightly educated in a topic but then falling down a rabbit hole thinking it’s all legit (quantum subject matter seems to be particularly susceptible).

I’ve watched that channel in the past, been meaning to check out that latest “capitalism is good” video that’s hit my feed and caused some controversy from what I’ve seen. I’m hoping there’s just context that’s being missed and the video is actually decent.

The 3 that stand out the most for me thinking back on it

Typer Shark and Mud’s (typing skills)

Really helped me get down my typing skills which translates to a lot of pc based games (even just chat). Mud’s were some of my favorite fast paced games (multi-user dungeons). Godwar’s was my shtick and as a Drow character you had a lot of powers you had to get out before an opponent could notice and respond to your presence.

MechWarrior: Sega Genesis (team work skills)

This was a crazy one I would play with family. There was a co-op mode that allowed one person to control the bottom half while the other person controlled the top half of your mech. You really had to cooperate and work together so it didn’t turn into an actual physical brawl because of the frustrations.

Call of Duty: Zombies (game mechanics)

This was probably my first game that I really got into game/enemy mechanics. To survive to higher rounds you had to adapt and know what the zombies were gonna do. Later iterations kinda destroyed that feature with zombies stumbling and etc but I get they were trying to stay innovative and fresh, still killed the genre for me though.

Honorable mentions are the great RTS’s that were everywhere in the 90’s. Starcraft for sure but even blizzards previous Warcraft’s and then of course C&C and even Dune (another sega game but solid RTS for it’s time). Really though the skills for RTS’s don’t translate as direct to other games anymore (just got me better at the RTS’s that I love) as more and more they become hero focused like what they did with WC3.

edit: grammar

Can you recommend any good soldering gear for an intermediate level? I’ve done plenty of soldering over the years but have always used crappy low end products. It’s always been a struggle to properly do a clean-true solder (not just heating the solder like I see everywhere) even though I try to meticulously maintain my equipment. I’m hoping that it’s just the equipment I use and a higher end one will make things a breeze like I see the professional’s use.

It’s really a pain in my ass. On top of maintaining the equipment I have whole setups I’ve constructed to hold wires and equipment snugly so I can properly apply heat. I purchased a high temp kit but it’s cheap as well and still sometimes run into the same problem, with the smaller components and projects though I’m afraid to use it and overheat something that can’t handle it.

It would explain my dentist. Definitely an expensive hobby with what I get charged.

Eventually they might be concerned with our mental well being and find simple tasks we can do to keep ourselves busy. To make it more efficient they could construct indoor spaces where we can be with other pet-humans doing tasks until they’re ready for us to return to our cages.

I was simply replying what I thought the OP meant since no one was responding to the “Why?”. I do not condone or agree with the original unpopular opinion, but it’s nice to see that downvotes continue to be used for agreeing/disagreeing with statements instead of their intended usage.

I think it’s something along the same vein as an overweight fitness instructor. I think it’s an innate requisite that if someone is presenting as a professional, that has instructions for us to follow, that they at least have the appearance of following their own guidelines.
