The problem with the golden rule is that different people want to be treated differently, so they may treat you how they want to be treated but not how you want to be treated, and vice versa.

Maybe when you're struggling with an issue, you want to be left alone to figure it out by yourself, but your friend in the same scenario would want someone to start doing anything to help out and insisting on troubleshooting the issue together. So your friend ends up frustrating you by offering to help too much when you just want to be left alone and then when they're struggling, they get upset that you leave them alone to deal with it.

So communication is important. Ask people how they'd like to be treated rather than just assuming they'd want to be treated the way you want to be treated and be honest with them about how you'd like to be treated.

One of my hobbies is designing typefaces. I started designing a crow-inspired typeface a couple of years ago that I haven't resumed working on yet.

Someone dropped a half-eaten drumstick on the sidewalk. Sadly, I missed getting video of him picking it up and flying into the tree with it...

The line of sight thing is weird. You can hack a camera you're looking at and then, if the hack loads slowly enough, get around a corner to hide, but you maintain the connection, so the connection doesn't require line of sight, so then why did you need it to connect in the first place?

I'm disappointed that no one responded to you with YTA or NTA.

I'd recommend delaying quest competition and just go wandering around town and find some fights to get into, get some leveling done, and upgrade your equipment. I find the open world to be more interesting than most quest plots.

The black pawns go on strike for higher wages, health insurance, and at least four weeks of vacation a year. Union bosses threaten to release information about King's browser history.

Depends on the stores these days, in my experience. Some stores are scheduling fewer cashiers after installing more self checkout lanes and have removed signage about item limits in self checkout. If you want a human cashier, you have to wait a while because there might only be one on shift so you get a line.

If any nuclear attack would be met with a counter attack using nukes, the whole world would suffer from the fallout that wouldn't be contained only within the national boundaries of the countries that get nuked.
