Bystander effect

As a bike rider, I forget this is a thing. Asked my neighbor, he pays $350/month in insurance alone 🙃 in c/[email protected]

That makes a lot more sense! Tbh I’m not surprised people are paying that much considering how used cars have been extra expensive the past few years. Couple that with high interest rates and you get large payments. Some people have 10% interest or more, guaranteed.

You pay $240/mo for a new Lexus? What was that? 12 years financing? Or did you pay most of the cost upfront?

Say the names together quickly and it sounds like the tire company, Michelin.

I just realized I dated someone with that name as her first and middle name.

Kicking myself that I never realized this obvious joke.

I totally follow you there. I don’t disagree with you.

All I am relying on is my personal experience with Big Macs, which used to be a lot.

These new ones are not as thick as they used to be. Different beef cooks differently, different fat percentages for example.

Also, I guarantee all those frozen patties do not weigh the same. Even if they can convince regulators that they average out to the advertised weight.

I see a lot of people saying it has always been that size. I cannot find official documentation.

I’m comparing that photo to this, which is what mine looked exactly like: https://www.reddit.com/r/shrinkflation/comments/15imuxv/grand_big_mac_super_thin_meat/#lightbox

Patient gamer philosophy (lemmy.world)

So I have a philosophical gaming question for you.

Visual novels are admittedly pretty niche in the gaming market as a whole.

If they don’t sell well enough sequels don’t happen.

So, as a patient gamer, do I pay full price for these games to support further development even though that means buying less games.

Or do I wait till they go for deep discount like I have been and have therefore been able to spread my limited support around more.

If my end goal is making sure these games keep being made as much as possible, what’s my best option?

I am all for the patient gaming mentality and typically wait until games are 50%+ off before I think of purchasing.

Looking for opinions on my best course of action. Thanks!
