I'm sure some middle class people can afford to go to burning man. But you're being wilfully ignorant if you think burning man isn't catered to the rich. It's almost purely a status symbol event. It's definitely where people go to show off their lavish wealth and take pictures for Instagram. I'm pretty sure if they took a survey 80%+ would be wealthy people.

I'm middle class, and I'm spending a couple hundred dollars on my holiday this week, I almost can't fathom spending thousands living in a tent in a desert.

But you're right, the middle class has been eroded. What was considered middle class in 1970 would be rich today. That's just because most people are worse off financially.

If you're spending upwards of $1000 on a few days you're probably rich.

It definitely depends on the game, I'm perfectly happy with a game that has a story to tell, and tells it well. Not everything needs to have branching options and 50+ hour playtime. Some of the best stories I've played are short and railroady, WaW and BO1 campaing's are fantastically interesting and you don't make a single choice in them.

Regulations are probably tighter outside China, can't slap together a skyscraper in 3 months that'll fall apart in a year like China can.

Isn't that how it's supposed to work? Either you scan them, or tap however many bags at the end. Not both.

Btw you don't need to @ me when replying, this is double bag scanning but for Lemmy.

What's the outcome of that?

Doesn't everyone else just click no bags? Free bags baby.

Atlanta is one of the slowest releasing shows I've ever seen, and it's so simple. 4 seasons in 7 years, god damn.

Idk what Glover spends all his time doing, he left community early because he was so busy but has pretty much only released Atlanta, Solo and one album since 2010.

Hell, I've had a £100 phone for 3 years already and it's absolutely fine. I've noticed a little battery degregation but it still lasts a whole day. Plus a cheap batter change will make it last year's more. I can't understand why anyone would still sing those contracts for a new phone every 2 years.

I was half way through the third episode and it dawned on me that I just don't care. The story isn't engaging. There had been like 5 minutes of monster hunting which was the best bit. I like the main 4 actors but they're not doing anything with them.

I might slog through a few more episodes but idk if I can be arsed finishing it.
