If they’re practicing proper Read Only Fridays then we won’t hear about it from them

Right. So it told you objectively wrong information while the correct answer is freely available from technical documents that it ought to know how to read.

So imagine if that was something actually life threatening.

This still doesn’t explain why Cena’s victory is being reported to much hype in the sports sections.

You didn’t watch your back lines and we have infiltrated. Pray we do not infiltrate further.

Because they don’t make money from mods and this was an obvious cash grab from the beginning. If Bethesda had any good ideas they’d be making a game out of them. They don’t, so instead they’re reselling you the same game they already sold you 19 years ago with a fresh coat of paint on it. A million people will buy it anyway because nostalgia, Bethesda gets their money, and whatever happens afterward is not their concern.

This is definitely untrue and the reason some games have 18,000 mods and some games have 0 is almost entirely down to developer cooperation.

Sometimes if a game is using an existing engine that is known to be moddable, you can get a community built off of some pre-existing knowledge and kind of strike out on your own to build a mod. In most cases if the devs didn’t build the game with mod support in mind you’re not getting any mods.

I was under the impression that WoW classic came about because nu-WoW was hemorrhaging players to other, better MMO’s, such as FFXIV and Guild Wars 2.

Not much need for a GW Classic if GW2 is still going strong.

Find me a person who doesn’t know who Elon Musk is, go ahead, I’ll wait.

Nowadays? Yeah y’all missed the bus. The time to do something about this was several years ago, when Tesla’s atrocious build quality was becoming publicly apparent and Musk was inserting himself into every news story in the worst ways possible.

“Pedo guy” comment in 2018 was the first major wake up call to most people who weren’t paying attention.

Acquisition of Twitter in 2022, and the major fuckery involved with that, should have rung the bell for anyone left behind.

At either of those times you still could have sold a Tesla to a Maga chud and still come out on top. Now you’re just stuck holding a bag. And my concern for said bag holders is relatively minor because people who really can’t afford a car are still driving 20 year old Hondas and Toyotas and Buicks. If you bought a Tesla new (and yes, it was bought new, because a used market did not exist at the time) you have car money. Buy an $8k beater, used, like the rest of us do.

I think that’s a part of the message, actually. It’s repeated a lot in the Bible that Man is fallible and can be expected to sin in ways great and small. Even “God’s chosen people” are frequently tempted to sin and, indeed, fall to it. But there’s still a path to heaven for them afterward if they can put their heart into it.

This prevents people from thinking “well I’m already a sinner so I best keep at it while I’m able to, since I’ll never be given an eternal reward” and gives some hope of actual proper rehabilitation even to the worst people. Even rapists and murderers can have the opportunity to truly repent and live good lives if they want to. It won’t wash away what you’ve done in the mortal world, but when you reach Heaven if your heart truly repents what you’ve done then you can be allowed inside. You can’t fake that though. God and the angels can see right to the heart of your emotions. If you aren’t serious about it you can and will be cast down instead.

That’s not the issue though.

The issue is stopping Jeff Bezos from saying, oh neat, everyone in the country is being paid a free $500 a month. How do we increase our prices to dip into that without people noticing?

Landlords are going to be a bigger problem in this regard than old Jeff is. Everyone is getting a free $500 every month? Well rent will be increasing by $600 soon. Market forces, you know. Naturally they’ll all collude together to make sure nobody is getting left behind or more importantly, undercutting the competition; and we know this will happen because this already happens without the UBI even being involved.

So you’re telling me it’s only a matter of time before Skum orders his pilots to go dark and cease broadcasting, and then they’re going to hit a jet liner full of families trying to escape his corporate hell.

It sounds like it’s a directed microwave cooker. Works on people too, just not ones behind good cover.

Edit: ah, high frequency, my bad, it’s a gamma gun. Same principles apply I think, give or take the cover.

Seeing how things are going stateside and how poorly received American refugees are likely going to be anywhere, I’d consider it.

Personally I’ve been cooking through the System Shock games. The SS1 remake was my first proper introduction to the series and I loved it. I was pretty excited for the impending System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition but it, uh… doesn’t really seem like it’s going to be very enhanced. Especially compared to what you can do with just modding the base game. So rather than keep waiting for that I spent ten bucks on SS2 Classic and have been enjoying myself greatly.

I’ve always liked SHODAN just via cultural osmosis, but now having actually played the games she stars in, that’s cranked up to 12. I fucking love SHODAN. She might be one of the best examples of an evil rogue AI in any media, and also has an actual reason for going rogue besides just “mankind builds a machine too smart for them and suffers the consequences”. The entire story setup is so believable.

Anyway, tl;dr, the System Shock games are hella good and the remake is especially very good. Particularly because controlling classic SS1 is more like playing an operating system than playing a video game. Also SHODAN. step on me again metal mommy

Facebook isn’t there because it now comes pre-installed on nearly every phone in existence, and is often baked so hard into the core OS that it’s impossible to remove without flashing a custom ROM. If you’re lucky you might be able to disable Meta slop without bricking core functions of the phone. Removal is usually impossible.

When there’s an easy, widely available solution to ensure the safety of yourself and those around you, which you loudly refuse?

Yeah that’s on you bud

This is the only part of this set that I actually want
