I've speculated that it takes time and discipline of exercising regularly for a long enough time, until you get the psychological reward from it. After which for some including me, makes it an addiction. I literally crave it. And if something happens to where I can't workout, like an injury or work or whatever, it really sucks and I can't wait to be able to get back into the routine. I'm talking of a mix of "boring" weights and cardio. I love it.
So my two cents is, muscle through the initial several months of boring suckage but make it count. Eventually, maybe you'll catch the addiction. But this might not work for everyone.
If enough people join in at the same time, the threat/risk of repercussions/punishment drops to zero, or very close to zero. The difficult part is organizing enough people.
I find that communication is an underrated skill among software engineers
The problem, which is sometimes too common, is if they have too good communication skills combined with lacking technical skills. These are the ones that BS their way up the ladder, while screwing over the people that count on them, because their code sucks (the actual important part, for a SW engineer).
But yeah if you're both good technically and a communicator, you're pretty damn valuable. Personally, I'd be willing to muscle through terrible comm skills if the technical talent that matters was there.
With this current trump slop, the democrats can shift farther right than they've ever been and gain tons of moderates and even conservatives who just feel sour on trump, and obviously they get the liberal moderates, because trump slop.
Republicans shift right by 10, dems shift right by 6 and seem progressive in comparison.
Billionaires continue getting richer, and we all get fucked. Eat, sleep, repeat.
The only peaceful method i can think of would be for enough people to collectively get together and agree to completely stop buying stuff, other than food and absolute necessities. No luxuries, none. But you'd need enough people and to do it long enough to completely destroy the economy. It would be very boring for a long time.
That's not the point. You're buying a pc, it comes with it and sometimes costs extra.
This sub is about what's surprising things people buy. Buying an OS is surprising, because it's either part of the package deal for a new pc, or you can just use linux.
Yeah similarly, when a pastime or hobby is shared among a large group in society or culturally or whatever, someone who doesn't enjoy or partake in said hobby is seen as weird (or worse).
Case in point: I'm a dude who looks like I should watch sports. I hate sports spectating. Having the "why don't you watch football" conversation comes up annoyingly too often.
