No, see, you don’t get it. God decided that I am worthy of living as a white male catholic in a country that hates women and minorities because I’m just a good person. Being poor or brown or female means you have some sort of moral failing. It’s truly justified that children die of starvation because God decided that they deserve it for being inherently evil. My white hands are tied.
The fun with contract work is that there are often laws in place to protect the employee, but there’s always some caveat that the employer can use to just not extend the contract anymore.
In Australia the law is that you can only extend a contract worker once, with what I assume is the intention that you would then hire them permanently if you liked their work enough to extend them. What actually ends up happening is that contract workers are now looking for jobs more often because companies LOVE contract workers, but hate the idea of offering anyone a permanent position. It’s cheaper for them to roll through inexperienced contractors.
Ah, these images have been a staple in tourist gift shops for decades! Fridge magnets. Tea Towels that are for looking at, not for using. Stubby holders. Keyrings.
THIS is Australian culture.
And this comment is why women often do not go topless, even if the laws in a country allow it.
I can see the train of thought that these dunderheads would have. “We arrested you because we thought you were the shooter. You weren’t, and because we arrested you, we let the real shooter get away. This is your fault.”
This mindset from people is what makes online multiplayer games unplayable for me.
I don’t get a lot of time to play games as an adult. When I do, I don’t particularly want people telling me how I should be having fun. There is this weird competition that happens where you need to know everything about a game before you are allowed to partake in the game. It sucks to have missed out on so many experiences, but i guess my not playing sub-optimally made someone else’s experience better, so it’s all good.
I love the devs previous game, Another Crab’s Treasure, for its tough but fair gameplay, and really well implemented progression. I was a little disappointed to discover that Peak leans more into the multiplayer, emergent gameplay, “eternal beta” feel of many indie games today. The concept seems fun, and it can apparently be played solo, but all of the gameplay footage I have seen from non-devs is people screaming frantically at each other about some new feature while nothing happens.
I might be a hypocrite though, because I am interested in the upcoming game Big Walk from House House.
Reddit has had issues for years, that’s why so many of us are here.
Oh, you meant the aws thing.
