That’s one way of looking at it. I definitely disagree though. I absolutely agree time is quick and feels like it has only excelerated, and i havent just gone out without plans on a random night in forever, but I absolutely still love having plans to do things with friends like once a month if not every other month. Maybe it’s because i have 2 kids, but I really need that relaxing time away from all that every now and then and hanging out with some friends is always a good time still and keeps my head straight. It’s also nice to have something to look forward to.

News@lemmy.world•Christa Pike Regains Consciousness After Failed Execution in Tennessee
5·3 days agoThis is so weird… I wonder if she woke up wondering if this is real since I feel like it would make no sense to her. Also that part about her being a survivor, come on really? I feel bad for how her childhood was, and that the other 2 got less of a sentance than her, but do I feel sorry for her or think of her as a victim? Nah not really. From what I read she will most likely get electicution, but there will be years of more fighting now and my guess is she just gets life since I think she will die naturally in jail before that next attempt ever happens.
If anything I feel bad for the family of the actual victim who sees all this and also see people showing Pike more sympathy over it. Meanwhile I remember hearing of 2 cases in the last year that were executions for innocent people that were not allowed to be reversed and ended up dying, those are the ones I really feel sorry for.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•You are undecided on buying a house. But this convinces you to buy it
1·6 days agoYes and yes, but no I never have. Generally I would like to think majority of people use agents that others have used and recommend or they are friends with. As for a lawyer the few times I needed one was either family or research online.
Idk anyone who has seen a billboard and said oh yeah thats my best option, im gonna call them. Outside of movies.
Do you not have agents over there? We can also do this all ourselves, but the paperwork and rules normally make it something you don’t want to do yourself, same with lawyers.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•"Mom, we can just go back to burning wood"
11·6 days agoI moved into an all electric house over 10 years ago and it was awful back then with it being avg $500 a month. This past year ive been paying $1100 a month. I do not have a huge place and outside of a few pcs and tvs i really dont use much so it pisses me off. To broke to change or put solar up. We just decided to move so ill be thrilled when this shitshow is not my problem anymore.
Pretty sure Mac wouldn’t be asking that, if you know what I mean.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something that you want but can't justify to do / buy right now ?
2·8 days agoI put off buy new hard drives for my NAS. I have an 8 bay and slowly filled it over the years with 6tb drives since they were about $200 at that time. Now that I ran out of that space I started replacing the 6tb one by one with 12tb which at the time was around $200 as well. Ive needed a new HD for years now but couldnt really afford it, but now I really need a new one and I REALLY can’t afford it… this hobby is essentially dead at these prices. Ill continue to purge data and hope in a few years some miracle happens and prices drop again. I also hope these current drives hold out without issues…
For the non-obvious reasons that this works is because weed is kind of expensive so the majority of people going are probably dropping around $100 or more, so you know they have the extra money to throw down on some cookies. Adding on another $10 bucks on a want when buying leisure activity substances makes the decision pretty easy in that moment to trap them.

Technology@lemmy.world•Sony patent could let players tap a credit card on their PlayStation controller to buy gamesEnglish
6·15 days agoFirst of all how much easier can it get? I just have my paypal or venmo saved and can’t even remember the last time I needed to update it, it always works and always there.
Second if anything it should be on the console not the controller. Its just another thing that will drain my battery and for something that will never get used. If its on the system i could care less. Will there be options to buy without it?
Idk why, to me this doesn’t sound better haha. Plus I won’t hold it all day either. For the most part my body knows mornings and night and stays that way unless I ate something that didnt sit right. If I gotta go I gotta go ultimately. For how infrequent I do it I honestly don’t mind the hover at all. I don’t really see the big difference.
I may be fucking weird, but I dont sit. In the 40+ years I have never sat on a public toilet seat and never plan to. If it comes to me having to go that bad, which it has, I will hover over it. No way am I ever touching a public toilet.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's one item in your home that's at least 20 years old that you still use?
2·26 days agoIt’s this November. But thats a good path since all my systems before that are older like my original xbox, ps2, ps1, snes, nes, genesis, psp, nintendo ds, game boy advance, intelivision, nintendo 64, gamecube, and Dreamcast. And then any games I have for them all.

Games@lemmy.world•I do not recommend: Marvel's Wolverine (Review) - Skill upEnglish
2·29 days agoMy friend was preaching for weeks now that he absolutely has to buy this game, but already knew it was going to be booty and hated that he was going to waste money on this. Guess he was right.
Haven’t played, but the more I hear the more I want to. Kind of broke for the next few months, plus these next few months are stacked with the most amount of games I actually want to buy in years… so this one may be left till a discount and then buy late in the year or early next year.
For reference I have only purchased like 1 game in the past few years and that was Clair Obscure day one of its release. So having like 5 or so games that I really want to buy in the next 3ish months is crazy. And yes i still play a bunch of games, just been ones a friend will let me borrow or the free games on PS+ which has been more than enough to keep me occupied.

Absolutely, not because I wanted to though. I kind of had to due to responsibilities. As they got older there is some leeway now so its a bit easier to get out, but I don’t push my luck either with the wife haha. I definitely have the urge to go out more, a lot of my friends are either still single or married and never want kids so they all get together way more. For me it probably is my friends that keep me coming back, we have all been friends since high school basically so were all comfortable and know each other well so its always a fun time. Beats 24/7 of kids all the time which is the alternative. Also since were kinda poor getting a babysitter is out of the question so even spending some time with the wife is limited sadly.
We setup a funny group just to make sure we get together every few months which helps and we each take turns picking a good pizza place and just get pizza. I used to love concerts in my 20’s so much i was going like once a week at my peak. Now i barely go once a year but I finally get to go to one in a few weeks. Finally we got a yearly weekend tradition where we rent a place and just hang out for 2 days and cant wait for that at the beginning of december. Thats about it for my year though, not to crazy.
