Cats don't like to drink Standing Water. That's why they all have kidney issues.

Buy a water fountain and use that as a drinking bowl. You will be refilling that shit multiple times/week despite it being a significantly larger quantity of water.

How often does your power go out that this is a major concern?

As someone who joined the boy scouts and only learned they suck at Smash Bros.

Your results may vary.

Is this a surprise though?

How am I supposed to feel about my coworker who has a broken headset and I only hear about 75% of what he says, (because it cuts out), and that his absolutely terrible microphone has me listening to him heavy breathing.

He could put in a free ticket to get a free headset, or just make everyone's life more difficult every single time they interact with him.

Or about my "wfh" coworker that is always 100% of the time in a car, or a loud af coffee shop so I have to repeat myself many times during, and after the meeting because they weren't paying attention.

The "glitches" if they are constant are a priorities issue not a freak occurrence.

Ripping Mp3s off YouTube Music Videos is without a doubt the worst method of piracy I've ever heard of.

Anyone can volunteer for tribute

But only a select few will make it all the way to DC instead of say South Sudan, or El Salvador, or a quaint little island they know about...

Well.... Was it wrong?

Who is the they in this scenario?

Because it isn't the people making the decisions. They will be long gone.

I mean the most popular genre in Japan is "get hit by a bus, and start over literally anywhere but the world we live in." That really tells you everything you need to know.

Just want to add an hour in VR is a LOT longer than 1 hour of flat screen gaming. If you haven't used VR then they aren't as comparable as you think.

You're usually on your feet, holding your arms up high, waving them around ,likely squatting - a lot and you've got a screen blaring into your eyes with constant high intensity stimulation.

Most people won't do 1 hour sessions on the regular, forget a 3-4 hour session without being put down to charge for while you take a break.

It's the sudden volume shift.

You turn it down, change channel, out the volume back up and they are none the wiser.

Even better if you have another source of noise to drown it out like a loud fan.

Most people who seek professional help have at one time attempted to self-medicate to resolve their issues.

Stimulants are what you would self-medicate with for ADHD. Caffeine is a simulant.
