Yeah for the love of God please don't actually start using the bullshit word a LLM shat out to please you, "moronophilia" is a seriously problematic word to use for the concept you're asking about and it's not even an actual word used to describe such. Us mentally ill folks are not fucking morons, please for the sake of common decency do better and think more critically about the things you see and read. I'm not a moron for being born with a screwed head and abused and traumatized into having further disorders.

Aw man, I've honestly forgotten how much I'd enjoyed KenM from the other realm.

Edit: okay I just realized this was on the wrong post. Fuk

As somebody who had a traumatic upbringing (lost dad at a young age, mom allowed an abusive father figure into our lives, grew up closeted LGBT with a very right wing Christian mother), it honestly feels weird and almost alien seeing people with good, healthy relationships with their parent or parents. I can't deny there's occasional jealousy, but just the thought of having the desire to just, be with my mom and do stuff with her? It's one that never crosses my mind.

Like I'll see folks online talking about their parents and how they see them as close friends in their adulthoods, and that's always righteous to see! But then I look at the woman who called me a selfish attention seeking brat when I admitted to her I'd nearly blasted my brains open with a shotgun (at the time I was trapped in an emotionally and sexually abusive relationship), and I can't really bring myself to call her my friend. Just the idea of hanging out with her, watching movies or playing games... It just feels strange.

Or companies could stop fleecing basic gameplay features that have been a staple of games for many years behind a completely unnecessary pay wall. Somebody wants to use fast travel, give it to them. If they don't, keep the option available for those who want it.

I haven't actively followed their stuff much at all, especially in the last many years, but this one hurts me. Red VS Blue was such a big part of my childhood into my teenage years, with the first ten seasons having gotten more rewatches by me than any other show out there.

Starting to feel those Blood Gulch Blues. Might marathon the whole series, myself.

I sure did feel the love and embrace of the son of God as his proud followers directly contributed to various traumatic experiences and abuses growing up that fucked me up as a child and led to me being an emotionally and mentally stunted adult. If this is God's love, I ain't impressed, and don't gimme that shit about having my faith tested cause the sadistic bastard that sees global suffering en masse and explicitly allows it is not deserving of my faith.

Cool that your religion brings ya peace and joy mate, genuinely happy for ya. Shit sucks in the world and we all need some form of comfort, but my advice? Keep it to yourself.

Hey, a 30% increase is the difference between carrying a 100 pound load in my arms and a 70 pound load. I'd definitely want that bonus at my stagehand job, it'd make carpentry more bearable. Especially given how weak I am in general.

Well there were the Dixie Chicks getting canceled by conservatives for opposing the war. Probably not an example the fella you're replying to wants to admit to, tho.

Edit: Check the replies to my post for corrections and clarifications.

I'll answer your question and more.

Lossless quality: The highest quality you can practically get, where it's as close to a 1:1 recreation from the studio as reasonably possible.

Lossy quality: The audio is compressed in a manner where you get the majority of the sound, but slight, fine details are lost to lighten up on file size. Heavy compression can greatly alter overall sound quality, but it's not the early 2000s anymore, we don't need to compress music that hard to get an album or two to fit on a 128 mb card.

.wav: Lossless, uncompressed file. Full quality, full file size.

.flac: Lossless quality, but with some compression, to minmax file size to audio quality.

.mp3: Lossy compressed. Small file size with reduced audio quality.

.ogg: Lossy compressed. Basically just an alternative to the .mp3 standard.

If you're pre-born you're fine, if you're preschool you're fucked!

I like collecting old 2000s handhelds. PDAs and the likes! Even daily driving a real beauty, a Sony Clié PEG-UX50 (catchy name as always, Sony!)

Lathes are brutal, uncaring machines. Not only can they kill you, it's going to be miserable the whole time as your body is torn apart.
