For those that can’t seem to make 2+2=4…
If you get more time for using pray paint than murder… Might as well just murder instead of using spray paint.

But he was too narrow minded to even consider that.
The biggest thing that exposes narcissists quickly. They can’t even consider the possibility that their opinion might not be objectively correct.

Yeah I’m sure he convinced him as elf it was for a good reason, and the idea isn’t inherently bad.
The primary issue is the clear intention to hide it. If there was a notice when you first accessed tesseract that asked if you wanted to enable “Toxic Mode” as he called it, or if there was some sort of indication when posts were removed by the filter, many of the complaints would no longer apply. The fact it was enabled by default, and hidden buried into advanced settings under a question meant to be ignored, located and phrased like the bullshit useless Windows Settings helper stuff, just means he never intended it to really be found. If you have to hide it because you know people don’t want it… You’re not on the right side of the issue.
The fact he also included a DDOS script in the good ye notice is just proof everyone else was right. He’s a piece of shit, regardless anything else. Only a true cuntwaffle does that.

Any employees qualifying for aid due to low wages while working at large companies like Walmart should disqualify the company from all tax incentives.

Oh no it is that simple. Diarrhea lettuce is bad for business.
Lettuce and tomatoes are both known high impact vectors for foodborne illness. So they’re going to try and minimize issues from it, regardless of what they might be required to do by law.
The Trump admin on the other hand doesn’t like science, across the board. So they’ve been killing everything they can wherever they can, including the nationwide testing for this specific bacteria last year.

Same with hard drugs, and the associated crime… they’re a symptom, not the root cause. Hard drugs are used to escape reality. If there’s fewer reasons to escape, usage drops dramatically.
- Comment on He was no friend to the middle class 2 weeks ago:
They believe everything is zero-sum, so they have to be getting less of others are getting more.
The reality is that they don’t actually have to have less of these things for everyone to have more. It just has to be done more efficiently, something the current system is terrible at by design so there can be 5 unnecessary middlemen taking their cut.
- Comment on He was no friend to the middle class 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think anyone here thinks he’s literally just sitting out on a hospital bed flat lined.
No, but there’s a decent chance he might be laying in a morgue fridge in the basement.
- Comment on He was no friend to the middle class 2 weeks ago:
Every hospital has a morgue. They deal with too many dead people daily, they aren’t going to be moving them out every time someone dies.
Besides, they won’t leave bodies sitting in beds they could use for living, paying, patients.
- Comment on Day 107, suspicions are high and a fear I must soon leaf 3 weeks ago:
Found the NIMBY that demands the 5x more expensive equipment, that isn’t as capable because it has to be hidden, and still complains about service being bad.
- Comment on Day 107, suspicions are high and a fear I must soon leaf 3 weeks ago:
Yup, and these disguised sites can cost 3-5x as much to install and maintain depending on the specific style needed for the area.
It also limits the compatible networking hardware that can be used, which can be more expensive than what’s necessary for those locations.

With all the effort now being on AI cheating, you’d think some students would instead try to look at older cheating methods to slide under that AI radar.
But that would require the critical thinking skills that they aren’t learning now, because of the AI crutch.

- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
Not at all. Trump famously got a bullshit diagnosis of bone spurs to dodge the draft.
The U.S. Constitution states that the president must:
- Be a natural-born citizen of the United States.
- Be at least 35 years old.
- Have been a resident of the United States for 14 years.
Beyond that, it’s just what the people want to consider required qualifications.
- Comment on It's funny how we say "a bug hit my windshield" when we are the ones going 70mph. I'll bet the bug's family describes it differently 3 weeks ago:
You sure about that? Many of the close calls I’ve had as both a pedestrian and a cyclist, the car driver seems pretty sure it was my fault.
Of course the driver of the vehicle is going to say that. Otherwise they would have to admit they fucked up.
That’s not a comparable situation though to what I’m talking about. Your example is about the driver of the vehicle in question, not someone reading about an event later that wasn’t involved. To an uninvolved third party, they’re not going to say that a pedestrian is at fault most of the time when it’s just a car versus pedestrian. They’re going to assume the driver of the death mobile was the issue.

But neither do those articles actively discuss the crash as the driver’s fault
That’s because in every one of the given examples it’s painfully obvious the driver is at fault. Those aren’t scenarios where there’s any ambiguity. It’s not a scenario where a car hit someone on a highway, where fault could easily be either direction.
Driving into a building is clearly caused by the driver of the vehicle. That’s the situation in all of those examples.

There’s a reason most of the presidents we consider the best were former military. They have that experience. They also tended to avoid conflicts whenever possible. It’s not a coincidence.

Dairy Queen has blended ice cream they call blizzards. They famously hold them upside down to show you they are thick enough to not fall, as opposed to the milkshakes everyone else makes.
And the scene it’s photoshopped into is from Gladiator. It refers to a hand gesture used by Ancient Roman crowds to pass judgment on a defeated gladiator following duels in colosseums. Thumbs up meant life, thumbs down meant death.

- Comment on How come people are stupid nowadays? Especially on social media 5 weeks ago:
Social media has allowed all the individual village idiots to unify under one banner.
It used to be that every village had their idiot that everyone in the village knew to ignore. However, now the idiots can post publicly just like everyone else. So the idiots can now talk to each other. And as a group, they manage to achieve a perceived credibility by sheer number. So you end up with people that aren’t quite at that level that see the group and think they’re smarter than they are… and this just keeps growing at each level.
Eventually you have people with literal brain damage running major government departments.
- Comment on GTA 6 Price Finally Confirmed, Features a 'Single-Player Experience' at Launch 5 weeks ago:
No, “experience” is just corporate shareholder wording for this type of thing. You’re looking at this statement from a gamer’s perspective, but this is a company announcing the price of a product. Statements worded like this are talking to shareholders, regardless of where the statement is being made. Rockstar doesn’t give a shit about what gamers think about the price, this is Rockstar giving shareholders a unit price they can base estimated revenue from.
- Comment on GTA 6 Price Finally Confirmed, Features a 'Single-Player Experience' at Launch 5 weeks ago:
Never say never.
Rockstar only loses money by releasing both at the same time. PC-only gamers will wait to get it on PC, but the gamers that also have consoles and don’t want to wait will buy it on console, and then buy it again on PC when that releases in roughly a year (just like GTA V and RDR2). It was never launching on PC at the same time as consoles, the chances of that were 0% after Rockstar saw the multiple millions of dollars in extra sales they got thanks to those staggered releases.
- Comment on GTA 6 Price Finally Confirmed, Features a 'Single-Player Experience' at Launch 5 weeks ago:
Also wtf is a “single player experience”? Is this going to focus almost completely on GTA Online?
Pretty sure it means the exact opposite. GTA Online is NOT a single player experience in any way shape or form. They’re saying that it isn’t going to have that at launch.
- Comment on GTA 6 Price Finally Confirmed, Features a 'Single-Player Experience' at Launch 5 weeks ago:
Oh that was NEVER going to happen. They found out with GTA V and RDR2 that they can triple dip on sales at full price by staggering releases and upgrades. Rockstar will never release everything at the same time again.
