Prosmises made promises kept mere hours after the inception I see non English language posts hitting front page it's beautiful stuff

I speak un poco line cook Spanish and I for one welcome our polyglotinous overlords, beinvinidos, atras, cuchillo

In the grand tradition of working with ESL coworkers in a kitchen setting, please offer me useful phrases in your language (mainly just dirty curse phrases) I can use in my daily life

Can anyone good with computers help me out please?

I have a used gaming laptop (maingear vector model number MG-VCTR001-1660TI) I try charging it and it won't turn on no matter how long i charge it for, I think it's the battery because before this it had an issue where it'd seem charged then immediately die after logging on.

I'm trying to see if I can replace the battery instead of getting a new laptop entirely but when I try looking up the laptops info with "replacement battery", only links to the laptop itself show up and no batteries.

Am I looking up the wrong info?

Can it even be replaced?

If it can, can I use any battery that's compatible and how would I know if it is?

I always wondered why people never believed when the proof is right here

And I'm talking about natural causes. Like him just keeling over from being the big moist macburger lover he is

Can you give me a link or a summary to a comprehensive analysis of Chinese economy starting from 90-ies to modern day? I'm doing an assignment for my economy class and would like to not use wikipedia for this one.

We just did an interview with a guy at my oxford house (sober living), and while he did get accepted, we asked him to wait outside.

and everyone starting making fun of him for being autistic and talking about how 'weird' he was. Even my own brother.

the house president was like "its been said hes an autistic"

Me and one other dude were like, lets give him a chance man. He did get accepted, but man i hate that shit

Why are people like this?

So, I have friends that, in this capitalist world, they are forced to often be very busy and have little time to socialize with me. Although sometimes, I wonder if it's because they secretly hate me. But yet, at the same time, when they do message back, they always apologize to me for not messaging back, and they never have anything bad to say about me.

Often, I fear that, every time someone says they don't hate me, they are actually lying. I for one, can't see why they are so fond of me, and I can't think of any positive things to say about myself. I am boring. I am going into accounting, and I have Autism. My special interest is in Fairy Tale Retellings and making them better than that of Disney.

My friends never seem to have a bad thing to say about me, and yet, they are so busy that, if they do have a lover, or other friends, I am often seeming to be on the backburner, or at least that's what it feels like.

So thus, I am forced to go often weeks without talking to another human being, where I am too shy to make any kind of conversation with anyone. I often spend my days talking to myself, having theoretical conversations with myself and my several imaginary friends. To pretend that someone would be fond of me, unless my online friends actually are fond of myself.

Either way, the gist of is... is that I seem to be suffering from the void of capitalism, it's uncaring, heartless nature, and that it seems to be consuming the free time of my online friends.

So what do you think? Could they secretly hate me, or is my mind starting to finally crack from being lonely, friendless and loveless my entire life (I am 24 and had no friends until last year)?

IDK thought that'd be a cool concept, like some guy is trying to change the past, but he can't get to the exact date he needs to, and so has to overshoot to ensure he doesn't pass it and has to deal with whatever time he shows up in.

I'm an amazing shot but I don't suffer from main character syndrome, so I'd be the stoned to the bone quartermaster who cleans all guns just for fun.

Mods take this down if it's too close to JAQing off territory.

Are they meant to be used like any other set of pronouns? What's the possessive form?

... I'm about to see another ZYBERTRUKKK along the wooded road during today's errand walk, aren't I?

With the rapidly worsening of the material conditions of the general population in the 'west', will we see a rerun of the early 20th century? I feel we are approaching the point where the bourgeoisie are so desperate to cling on that the 'democratic' institutions of today might be in danger.

Can you believe my neighbor was just throwing it away?!

Theres enough racist people that hes a candidate

Thats it, lets stop putting our heads in the sand with 'economic anxiety'

Bearded Trump looks like a ship's captain.

A local university has gone full austerity mode in the last two years, firing staff, forcing their work onto others, reducing department budgets, all the while hiring more executives and middle managers. This has pissed off pretty much all of its faculty, from adjuncts to department heads. Now Texas may be a right to work state, but these profs are in a unique position where a lot of them has tenure and the university will have a difficult time firing them, which is why they’ve opted to making conditions worse so that the profs will quit themselves. The remaining faculty wants to do something besides sending anonymous complaints that get ignored, but they’re floundering. Is there a union/adjacent org that they can turn to for guidance?

This doesn't happen on desktop. My phone is, admittedly, aggressively stripped back of as much bazinga shit as I could manage to remove from it.

for every post you upvote, how many do you save/favorite?

(i am )

I never know what to study before exams that are so broad a subject.

I know the answer is going to be "study all of it" but I like to be efficient.
