They’re not supporting him because they’re worried about his finances. They’re supporting him because they have faith in his leadership. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t care. Lots of CEOs are just empty suits, but Altman clearly has been doing something his workers liked.
Everytime smb. says “you can Google it” I think about googling it and expect some weird niche article from some esoteric sites. But then I think, why didn’t you Google it and posted an link? Why should I try to find a trustworthy source for your claim?
You’re willingly confirming something you rate as sensitive, trying to bring more credibility to it by being an extra shout and referencing a virtually unverifiable needle in a haystack ‘authority’ as Google, but find the sensitivity a reason for not sharing your information.
Considering the person I replied to assumed a cis relationship, I rolled with their assumption, but if you looknat my other comments theybare gender biased.
Getting upset that your romantic partner doesn’t chase you to apologise is childish. Retaliation for not behaving in a way you want them to crosses the line. Both of which are demonstrated in this meme.
Should the person starting the PlayStation have done what they have done? Fucked if I know, as it’s situational. But the emotional manipulation thats incoming (or physical violence towards the gamer or their equipment) is heavily implied.
And that’s only if the argument was for something minor.
I assume you’re basing the abuse argument on the WWE logo in the corner. Everyone who didn’t notice that (me included, at first) just see a girl with a “how dare he?” look on her face. Which is actually pretty funny.
In case you’re wondering where all the downvotes are coming from.
I’m basing it off the trope that the guy starts to play a game and the “I’m in danger” quote.
It speaks to the fact that the gamer is probably doing the right thing and letting emotions cool, where the non gamer is upset at those actions and is in the first stage of an emotional or physical interaction that crosses the line.
Yeah, like, I noticed the WWE logo right away but assumed that was simply where the image of the woman was sourced from, and not intended as part of the joke. I didn’t take any physical violence tones from it at all.
Couple have argument
Woman leaves room, expecting to be chased
Man decides to play games instead
Woman has shocked Pikachu face
The Woman wanting to be chased is definitely childish, and possibly emotional manipulation, but I don’t think it’s intentional manipulation. At least, there isn’t enough context in the images alone to say that with certainty. Definitely a bit of a leap.
It’s not just a big step, it’s antithetical to the movements against domestic abuse, because it’s broadening it to mean “any relationship dysfunction that I feel like throwing in the barrel” which cheapens the term by watering it down unnecessarily.
It’s not necessarily domestic abuse, like the other commenter said. But it does have a flavour of “haha women ammiright?”
It’s not just women who sulk. It’s okay to take space sometimes from an argument but communicate about that. If the relationship is worth it, address passive aggressiveness as it comes up. Both people in this meme are being passive aggressive.
Which obviously isn’t the same as domestic abuse so that’s, Yknow, a stretch.
So do the new posts and everything. But Reddit is a shithole and Omegle got sued to death, online gaming is either a full time job or a money sink, streaming services start to cancel out each other and most of the regular games and their performance suck ass.
Indie games are the only thing keeping gaming alive for me, for the most part. All the AAA games I play are older titles. Doing the GTAV story with a trainer has been a pretty fun time lately for me.
Wait, I just want to make sure I’m getting this. You’re going through five converters before plugging into the tv? Counting the computer->USBc as a converter…
Technically yes. In reality it’s just 2 “real” converters who both need their own power supply. Once from digital to HD analogue, and then from that to SD. For input lag, it’s a lot less than the 20 ms of input lag the HDMI 2 input of my Sony Bravia TV.
Same here. I like the idea of Lemmy but the decentralization makes it really difficult to find the content I want. Reddits centralization, while causing some problems, definitely made it easy to find communities. That lack of ease is what makes Lemmy not as easy to use for new people.
Have you checked out !lemmy411? For some reason I don’t see it mentioned or linked to much, but it’s basically that, which I think would feel much more approachable to new people than pointing them to tools like Lemmyverse (as much as I do really appreciate it).
Another good one for sharing communities you’ve stumbled across would be !wowthislemmyexists.
There’s also the problem where I totally want to start a community (for example: Marble Racing), but I don’t know where a good home would be for it and I don’t think my home instance would be a good home.
I think it does a bit. The obvious one would be for porn on general purpose instances. Alternatively, my primary instance for example is a bit of a niche one related to reading, so a sports or politics community could feel disjointed especially for the admins/mods who manage the community.
Same here. I lurk more on Lemmy but if I want to discuss some niche topic then Reddit is so easy to I don’t use that fucking app though, website or 3rd party.
Try Deep Rock Galactic! It is neither a full time job or a money sink. Any purchases are purely cosmetic, seasons are entirely free and there are regular updates.
