I’m right there with you. My luck came a bit later in life, so I had 10 working years of income tax actually paid close to 0% as I made little and had huge student loan debt from an attempt to get a degree.

I finished the degree and 10 yrs into a well compensated career and I’ll gladly pay thousands to the government. The wealthy people that complain about paying their share have zero perspective. They’re basically spoiled brats.

I’ve also lived in a state with lower taxes, and now one with higher taxes. You get what you pay for. I hear people everywhere complain about the roads where they live. Not everyone has had to replace whole wheels due to the stuff that some places are calling roads. Again, zero perspective if you don’t get out and see the world at least a little.

Humans are apes.

Poor VR, all the way at the bottom below shovelware.

Like I said, I help design them. I’m interested to know why you think that. You work with them? How old are the ones you work with?

Big iron means a mainframe. The Ferrari of servers.

I design big iron. The hardware is great, don’t blame us.

I love Obra Dinn, but not top 10 love. I think the fresh style in an industry of samey games using the same few engines made it really stand out for me. It’s retro styled, but also goes beyond that to show you it’s world in a new way.

If the art style doesn’t do it for you then you might not enjoy it as much.

Sumatra pdf viewer. Much faster than adobe ,and free.

These examples of soul sucking jobs will be the loudest recruiting companies, because no one wants to work there. They can sometimes pay well too.

Highly skilled people are needed in a lot of practical industries that pay a bit less (but still well enough). You just need to seek them out.

Council isn’t the word I’d choose,but I feel you. Maybe “united canvas admins,” to show emphasize the federated nature?
