You can't take it with you, but you can't leave it for someone else either: Valve says you aren't allowed to bequeath a Steam account in a will
  • I wouldn't suppose that people are required to inform steam that they're dead. Therefore, I'd assume the easiest way to bequeath games/DLCs, etc, is to get a wishlist from your loved ones, and then gift all of those games prior to death on a credit card that you might not be able to pay, due to being dead. Steam gets the money, the CC company gets shafted. Alternately, share your credit card details with a loved one and that list, and have them order within hours of your death (this depends on whether or not you were plausibly alive when those CC transactions took place)

  • I quit today.
  • fidel-salute Hell yeah. It's good the apprentice got to see it too - people can be so scared for their jobs that seeing people standing tall for what they believe in is too rare. Hopefully they'll be willing to do what's right when the time comes. Congrats on the new job!

  • A message from Slavoj Žižek to the young [2:20]
  • I did not read this, so here is my review:

    I liked his opening where he referenced pop culture and then related it to a current phenomenon, but I found his leap from that to using Lacanian philosophy to support a mainstream liberal viewpoint quite specious and it made me question why I would even bother reading it in the first place.

  • What's pretty fucked about this generally is that if you're making 250k/year, you can afford to buy a legal machine gun. There's only a few of them out there and they cost like 20k minimum, but it's literally something you can do if you have enough money and can just wait for the ATF to process your paperwork.

  • "mr rogers was punk"
  • I feel like "punk" gets mis-attributed as "authenticity" so much. Mr. Rodgers seemed like a guy who walked the walk and that gives him authenticity, but it sure doesn't make him punk.

    Edit: Ruminated this a bit and I feel like the attribution of "punk" is probably because it's the last widespread cultural touchstone where "authenticity" was an assumed component of it. (I don't think this reflects the reality of it though, the Sex Pistols were a boy band after all).

  • Troop Wife moves to Germany, shocked when Germans don't appreciate her presence.
    www.businessinsider.com I moved to Germany and regret it. I've felt unwelcome by the people, and not even the great healthcare can convince me to stay.

    Stephanie Vollmer said that her healthcare and safety were better in Germany than in the US, but she said that she often experienced microaggressions.

    I moved to Germany and regret it. I've felt unwelcome by the people, and not even the great healthcare can convince me to stay.

    Has some other pretty good nuggets there; esp complaints about the cost of gas and gasp, shock horror the lack of big box stores and 2-day shipping.
