Conan is one of the funniest humans alive right now, no joke.

I’m sorry, input was not understood. Perhaps you meant:
*sexy scat and pooey role play forums"?
- Comment on Who here likes Ratatouille? 5 months ago:
Fake.
Ratatouille sex forums have existed since the dawn of mankind. Everybody knows this.

It’s hard to believe that there was a point in my life where I could have read that article and understood it for the most part.
Now it might as well be hieroglyphics. Like I can see that symbol is an eye, and that one is a bird, but don’t ask me what that shit means.

Who needs magical thinking when you have thermodynamics?

Try again next time. They will do everything they can to make you think you need to accept both, but there’s a reason there are two things you need to approve and why the wording is subtly different when asking approval.

I really hope this isn’t shit.
By “original”, I assume they mean Yakuza [Kiwami] 1 not Yakuza 0?

Just ew… I will never understand this shit. Tabs aren’t fucking bookmarks.

And I would take it as a bad sign of the people who are supposed to be the most tech savvy in the building can’t be bothered to take 3 seconds to change that.

This has kind of come around full circle… Video games went from what you described to literally just not letting you start the game until you approved every EULA that popped up before the main menu.
They got us so used to just clicking OK because we knew the only alternative was not playing the game at all.
Now they have several types of EULAs at the start of a game, and usually the "data sharing’ one is separated out and not needed to be approved in order to start the game (probably thanks the GDPR if I had to guess off hand). But people have gotten so conditioned to the idea of “just click OK over and over so I can start playing” that they don’t realize there’s two separate EULAs there, and only one is required to be accepted to play the game.

Am I the only one rabid for a sequel to Sekiro?

Lol every time.
Then you try to pause it before realizing you can’t and now you’re definitely fucking dead. Have fun trying to remember how you got there.
- Comment on The starting salary for a new American Airlines flight attendant is low enough to qualify for food stamps in some states 6 months ago:
Can’t forget to mention that those Walmart employees usually turn around and use those food stamps and government assistance at Walmart due to whatever meager employee discount they get.
So now Walmart not only gets to pay their workers far below a living wage, they also get reimbursed by the government for all those food stamps their own employees spend.
Reminiscent of owing one’s soul to the company store, eh?

This is more a failure of understanding basic physics.

It seems as though maybe you haven’t studied capitalism or, I dunno, human history?
- Comment on *sweating intensifies* 8 months ago:
Well if the two options I have are: continue being able to afford to live while doing a job that can now be done by a machine, or to just let it happen with zero safety net and let the good vibes from the naive optimism of “if enough people go hungry, then things will have to change.” I’m sure that’ll be a great comfort in that time

I feel like you think you just thought of something truly groundbreaking, “You criticize society yet you live in society. Curious.”

Yeah, it always seemed like flat-out exploitation to me.
- Comment on Dwarf Fortress - Adventure Mode Beta Out Now 8 months ago:
From what I’ve seen, don’t expect a polished, marketable “Beta” or “Early Access” even. It seems like they really rushed to get this one released by the date they chose in advance (one of the dev’s birthday I think?), and therefore is missing tons of features and in many cases just straight up broken.
I’m gonna wait til this one is a little more baked before giving it a try, otherwise I’m worried the ensuing frustration might ruin the mode for me once it’s actually working as intended.

I’ve found that using a VPN tends to get e caught in more Captcha loops than not. I think google, etc. has gotten better at knowing which swathes of IP addresses belong to VPNs. I thought that maybe it was specifically an issue with NordVPN because it had gotten so popular, so I switched to Mullvad and nope. Still get way more captchas. Still keep it on.

The secret is, it doesn’t matter.
- Comment on *sweating intensifies* 8 months ago:
I just don’t think many of us believe that, “it’s been happening in various forms for 20 years” is an acceptable reason to continue doing or accepting something.
You act as if Captchas themselves weren’t created to prevent corporations from gaming the system. Like you do realize that the only reason that “every post you are making on this site blahblah” is because corporations just had to exploit the system for profit at the expense of literally everyone.
So yeah, no. “You’ve been doing it already for 20 years” doesn’t cut it for me.

Because fuck them, that’s why. Nobody, not a single person, is out there trying to make AI that will make the lives of average humans more livable. 100% of it is for corporate profit.
