I’ll learn to care about spelling and proof reading in a world where everything I give a fuck about has auto correct when you learn to eat shit. Video evidence is required.
I’m sure I did. I spend a lot of time trying to convince people how smart I am by correcting grammar and spelling on the internet like a snooty cunt. It’s no surprise you think I’m stupid.
I would say that was a strong influence but there were a lot of custom games with some of the elements of DOTA before it. I think DOTA defined the entire genre and how all the elements work first. Brood War just didn’t even have the options to make a real MOBA.
That’s a game I hadn’t thought of in a long time. I wanted that to be good so badly. It just wasn’t though. Didn’t run well, wasn’t fun. Apparently someone has remade the game with the same name + the overprime. Wonder if they made it any better.
All the fuckstains who tried to create their own store/launcher have been coming back. Epics store is still running at a massive loss and their own projections (which are probably wrong) show they’ll need to operate at a loss for at least another 4 years. The only games most people I know got on epic store were the free ones…
No kidding. This person clearly isn’t spending time in the south during the several months a year its over 100. This summer it was fucking 90 before the sun came out multiple days…
For open source messengers, you can check whether they actually encrypt your messages and whether the server has access to your encryption keys but what about WhatsApp? Since it’s not open source, you can’t be sure that the encryption keys aren’t sent to the server, right? Has there been a case where a government was able...
The better question is, do you trust meta at all? I’m sure they have a way to read everyone’s chats and would gladly hand over yours to the government if they want it.
The answer is yes. But, vets also go to school for many extra years often racking up student loans to be vets. They then make very little money and I don’t blame them for trying to make some extra money on medication etc. It’s an overcrowded job market because people like animals and want to become vets. There isn’t enough money in it.
They clearly came to market too early. Trying to time the death of twitter. The 5-10 minutes I spent on that shit was enough to see how broken it was and how many features were missing. You can’t come to market with a broken product in a space that requires exponential growth and the network effect to achieve success.
For US interests… ya, Russia taking whatever country it wants in eastern Europe is only on the US interest. Has nothing to do with anyone else. NATO is all Nazis or something amirite?
Blizzard is a shit company that exploits their customers, their employees and had a huge sexual harassment issue recently. Overall just a complete shit company making overpriced mediocre games. They used to be great, which is why they draw so much hate for now being awful.
I sold a wow account 15 years ago that was decked out for the time (guild broke up) for $1,000. Kept getting emails for years. Eventually I got sick of it and responded to one saying the account had changed hands and they banned it immediately. They only care about people selling/trading things outside of their system. They get a wiff of an account being sold and they’ll nuke it.
It cracks me up when they brag to each other about how they “read theory” all the time. It’s like the Trumpers who “do their own research”. They’re reading some echo chamber article think piece that just reinforced what they already think. They need to read something like History of Economic Thought, or New Ideas on Dead Economists.
These insulated groups that just run around shouting that only their narrow vision of the world is the right one are always filled with stupidity. There’s never one simple answer. There’s rarely one ultamite truth. The world is shades of gray. So are economic systems. Anyone who wants total communism, socialism, or capitalism is a fool. The tankies that tout how amazing China is without realizing they really aren’t even communist anymore is just something else to me particularly.
This is my biggest problem with the tankies. They support any state claiming to be communist no matter how far that is from reality. Most “communist” states are closer to a monarchy or fascism than actual communism.

Endshitification and the algorithms driving it have ruined so many things… Gotta be the first, no one reads, just need a clicky headline and a couple pictures.
The Democrats were discussing working with him. Then he basically told them to fuck off with that interview. So he lost with 8 republican votes. Such bad strategy. It just makes you think, aren’t you supposed to be a politician. You ever politiced in your whole life?
I guess this is the kind of stupid, horrible strategy you can expect from the current Republican party. They don’t have to make deals are negotiate. Their entire platform is scream Democrats bad.
That really depends. Are we talking immigrate to somewhere with functional socialist policies, or to a psuedo dictatorship with what looks a whole lot like strong man fascism except they promote a few (most often failed or failing) socialist programs? Because I have no interest in moving to a failed state like Venezuela.
Western-made armor is failing in Ukraine because it wasn’t designed to sustain a conflict of this intensity, a military analyst told The Wall Street Journal....
This isn’t WW2, there’s plenty of anti tank weaponry available. It’s a lot cheaper than tanks and it’s going to do what it’s designed to do. Look how well tanks worked out for the Russians. Tanks are just not nearly as effective in modern warfare.
How? If they make laws to stop discrimination you can’t exclude it protecting select groups. That’s just legitimizing discrimination as a form of corrective action for… discrimination…
You can put however much you want in. Max is like 22k a year. You’re probably thinking match, ya basically no company will match 15%.
That’d be too close to a pension fund or something reasonable. We can’t have that. The boomers said those were bad, raegonomics are good. Fuck pensions and unions.

Are you going to like sit down restaurants in America though?.. cuz those people make around $3 an hour most places with no benefits. I don’t approve of the system but please don’t go to a fine dining establishment and stiff the waiter. It’s fucked up.
I remember when “free range” chicken/eggs came around. The definition of that is wild. Opened my eyes to how bullshit all of the US food labeling stuff is. It means something like they have access to 2 square feet of outdoor space access. But theres like no rules on how often they need to be able to use it. So you can just have thousands of chickens you lets cycle through a tiny outdoor area once in their lives and it meets the requirement. It’s a joke.
A Michigan vigilante who amassed thousands of social media followers with his unauthorized hunts for pedophiles was shot and killed in a confrontation with two teenagers, police said....
And teens he confronted killed him? He typically posed as a 15 year old girl to catch people it says. I guess these teens are in the wrong if they’re 18-19? Story just seems a little strange.
Confronting people by yourself is not something a level headed individual does. This guy was clearly getting off on some type of vigilante hero complex.
In 2015, Billingsley was sentenced to 30 years in prison, with 16 years suspended, after he pleaded guilty to a first-degree sex offense, court records show....
No, but the American prison system just makes people more violent and insane. So, this person was only going to get worse. Instead of asking why that is our politicians just think we should leave people in prison forever. #Murica.
Killed with the same kind of gun that was in her name that he “couldn’t find” a week before their divorce court date. After telling multiple people if something happens it was him. Ya, he totally didn’t do it. How did he think he had any chance of getting away with it?
The unfortunate reality is our system doesn’t typically rehabilitate anyone. So, it’s understandable that people are incredulous. I wish things would change. Never seems to be much political interest in how prisoners are treated.

They’d already been openly gutting their original shows since the merger. The only things they’re interested in making are “sure things” and cheap shit with high ROI. I’m sure we’ll get another half dozen game of thrones spinoffs as they beat the corpse and load it up with garbage.
There hasn’t been anything worth watching on HBO for about the last year. I only have it because I’m not the one paying for it… My sister has it as a free perk of a cable package or something I can’t believe anyone does pay for it.
It was doing well enough ratings wise. After the merger they’re only going to put money into sure things. Prepare for more garbage lowest common dominominator content. Superheros!!! Although, gotta say I did really enjoy peacemaker. It’s like so dumb and intentionally bad, it’s like it’s making fun of the whole genre.
