I'm partially memeing bc i get that it's a game from like 3000 yrs ago, but its a very easy modification. Is there a reason why this isn't done? Or changing the colors to something else? (Blue vs red, which seems to be video game standard)

As a poor person, maybe most useful advice for other poor people is water bottles. Tap water is colder than the air so I try to keep a plastic water bottle in my hand or pressed against my skin and it helps a lot. If anyone is in a bind, post your situation and we/I will try to come up with a simple enough solution. My irl qualifications might be useful for the first time online lol: I was homeless for 2 months and have been poor af for my whole life, so i've had to ghetto innovate a lot of stuff.

Like there is a alert button that leads to a blank page.

Me - when I'm lonely.

I often use YouTube/invidious over odysee or peertube due to my devices lagging either due to the device being low spec or internet connection or something else. A bunch of Odyssey and peertube videos are only available at 720p or 1080p. I'm consistently told I don't need a gaming computer and 100 Mbps to play 1080p videos without lag, but 1080p videos have been a problem across every device I've ever owned in my life, and the best device I've owned was a pixel 6, and on 75 Mbps connection. Inb4 I'm told this is my problem I should just deal. So videos of being automatically scaled down to 360p or 480p would help a lot with adoption.

Assuming both or at least one of of them has a correspond sexuality/gender/etc that works with the other

Don't buy BLU phones

For poor people (ex lumenproletariat, but incl anyone struggling, which incls some middleclass 'big spenders') hard to give a hoot about privacy when like the bottom 2 rungs of maslow's hierarchy of needs are lacking.

A lad told me today that he'll make a facebook account just to connect with me, gave me the address of the place he's couch surfing at and told me to come over anytime. He said "because you treat me like a human." 😢 I've gotten in trouble at a few jobs for talking with poor people rather than just shuffling them through. It helps that I have to walk through the hood frequently.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/220614 I've posted around my local facebook groups for carpooling options/ride sharing/ride sharing/renting. Combined with the immense cost of paying some one submarket rates (less than taxi/uber) to bring me to the job and back, i'd only be taking home slightly more than minimum wage. Can I theoretically buy a car for like 3 months then like sell it at not too much of a loss? I'm in a bad state right now financially and don't have another job lined up. This seasonal job will hopefully help me get a better physical labor job like becoming a carpenter or like plumber. My boss and a few other ~~(capitalists)~~ people tell me that buying a car is a good investment and is like guaranteed to increase income... I guess if I did manage to become like an carpenter or whatever, then i'd need a car to bring all my tool stuff around town?
