Care to clarify what is objectively bad? Like, an example

I think Win10 already is everything what I need.

I have gotten a small feel of 11 from my girlfriend’s laptop - it feels alright.

But I think I won’t have reasons to upgrade. I haven’t studied 11 at all so I don’t even know am I missing something lol

When I don’t find information through a search engine, I go asking it from people themselves.

Discord is an easy solution for me to find this information at that point. Much easier than generating yet another user account in a website I might use once in my life, while I already use discord a lot.
By the way - you can search for messages you have sent and for messages that were pointed directly to you. Makes delving into old conversations much easier.

Of course Telegram and other services like that can help too.

Maybe the devs love keeping answering same questions over Discord? =D

I don’t remember when I watched the telly at home previously. Most of my entertainment are games and then some YouTube and movies not so often (lurking in friend’s online streaming services or googling “watch x for free”).

Stopped watching the television when too many ads erupted even between the movies that were my last interest in this service.

Most of my telly shows I see nowadays are at a friend’s place, and I’m every time annoyed about the amount of ads.

I bought a cat game where you need to find and click 100 of them! They had cute noises and every single cat was named!

I have over 300 wallpapers in my folder on the computer. I have told windows to change them every 10 minutes I recall. They are about games, friends, all sorts of characters, movies and horror at least.

My laptop has the default wallpaper - it has had it since from the beginning. My phone…I don’t remember where I got it.

Erm.

I recall a study about kids under a specific age that cannot get scared of looking at pictures of demons and other horror stuff because they don’t know yet what your everyday default person looks like.

So I’d argue that even people need to get accustomed to a thing before they could recognise or have an opinion about anything.

Yeah - I like the idea that if a character’s fundamental stat is (too) low, doing basic everyday tasks would get an increased difficulty to do it right/with success. Being it talking to someone, opening a door or getting out of bed.

They might not know what organizations do, might have no better options, might think that no change will happen no matter what they do, might not care, might be brainwashed/tortured/made fearful…the possible reasons are endless.

What is your definition of a strong work culture…

A good question!
I don’t have a fact-based or a researched answer for you. My gut feeling thinks about workaholism, burn-outs and generally people having less leisure time.
I just came to think through a Lemmy post/comment that a lower work culture can be a thing at all. Or is it a thing existing at all, in any country.

I’ve understood that America is a strong work culture, and Finland as well. But are there places with a lower work culture?

…what country are you from

Finland

Do you see a your definition of a strong work culture as a good, bad or neutral thing for the society?

Haven’t thought of it. I feel neutral about it.

The only thing that concerns me is that there could be more burn-outs, more workaholism and more inflamed points of views towards the balance between work and leisure time in a stronger work culture.

I am “with” the church since I got the same religion my parents got when I was born. I haven’t left the church and I still pay the church tax, but that’s it. I’m not religious myself.

I don’t know religious people, there are none in my social circle. I don’t know religious people’s practices.

I know that fanatics can be found in many fields of life, not just religion, and I know that things can get messy in the bigger scale and that money and power are involved.
I don’t have anything against religions either. I’m against acts that hurt people though. If a religion is the reason someone causes pain in others, that’s not okay.

What’s un-seekable

So only shorts are delivered? Who not “normal” videos as well/instead?

When we go down to the scale of individual, a religion can be a positive way of life/thinking that can give positive meaning to someone’s life.

Not every person who’s a believer is automatically evil.

Comfort zone is easy. You don’t need to think as much and it may be a stress-free area.

Outside the comfort zone is where you can learn new things of yourself. What you like, dislike, think about the world and things inside it. It might be stressful and scary there.

Too far outside the comfort zone may result in burnout or mental problems.

Buying a (premium) service to get rid of something awful requires effort and resources.
Do you have the money? Do you get enough kicks out of the money you would be spending? Do you know the pros and cons of subscribing/going in a service (what will they provide for the money spent?)? Do you want to support the service - even so far to provide them money? You need to provide additional data of yourself to make the purchase and may even need to learn how to do it - are you ready for that?

Getting an (ad-blocking) extension to a browser to get rid of something awful requires effort and resources.
Do you know how to start using extensions in browsers and what to do if you need to troubleshoot them? Is it free (are paid extensions even a thing? I don’t recall seeing one)? Can you support someone you would want to support with a ad-blocker (some decent folks who make good content may be in need of the money they get from ads, but then again, there’s a chance you can send them money through other means)? Are you supporting a service that has an built-in feature that annoys you (in this case, providing ads for the users to see), endorsing such behavior (even more) even though you cannot see those ads yourself?

Both options may require research. Both options are influenced by other people and by their opinions. Both options have their pros and cons. Both options have consequences.

.

I don’t buy any subscriptions. I wouldn’t have the money for that and I have bad experiences of them.
I can support someone with a grateful comment or sharing their content to others.
I myself stick with the ad-blocking services.

But don’t let me influence you with what/how I do it 😉 Make up yer own mind and act accordingly.

I was pretty shook over one book I read, plunging me into sadness for about a week.
I listened at sad piano music and made many custom pictures with this website using the book (cover) themed art 😂

I do hope you are wrong on that 😅

I like the thought that you could choose for what purpose when you select the thing you transform into.
Is it for fighting, traveling, hiding, adventuring, reproduction, collecting materials off from etc
