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.

I recently learnt that it just auto accepts them so I stopped using, ublock has settings to actually block cookies which seems to work well, more tricky to enable though.

It’s very specific but I’d love an auto-skip intro add on for Plex like I have for Netflix.

First you have to install the revanced manager onto your phone.

Then uninstall the play store Reddit app if you still have it. And install a version of Reddit from here I believe you want a bundled version but it’ll tell you if that’s wrong when you try patch it with revanced.

Finally open the revance manager and find Reddit, click the patches you want - it’s quite limited still and you’ll probably only want to select the remove ads patch but have a read, there might be 2 or 3 you want. If there’s an error try downloading a slightly older Reddit apk.

Guys, I’ve gone back. Turns out you can get Reddit revanced and remove the ads/promoted posts so I’m fine with the Reddit app now. I’m kinda using both but there’s just so much more content on Reddit.

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.
