Viking_Hippie,

Source: I work at Amazon, and have worked on Alexa

If you’re high enough level at Amazon to know for sure, you’re also high enough level at Amazon to almost definitely lie to people about it and other things as part of your job.

So no, we will not be taking your word for it.

Viking_Hippie,

What sorcery is this‽

Viking_Hippie,

If I were “higher up”, do you think I would be actually doing any IC work

If you weren’t, why would you have access to enough data to know for sure whatv every part of it does and doesn’t do?

free to ask anyone that has any experience with Alexa, or anyone that has monitored traffic leaving the device.

So basically biased people and people who might lose their jobs if they say anything Amazon doesn’t want people to know? Sure, sounds credible!

There’s conspiracy theories and then there’s expecting that a company that has been proven to spy on people without their knowledge will spy on people without their knowledge.

Viking_Hippie,

Bet it wasn’t malts Harry had been drinking when he designed this 😄

Viking_Hippie,

And you didn’t need to make a big deal out of it 🤷

Viking_Hippie,

Yes it is, just not in the way it usually is. ENDING civilian lives is very much a priority of their genocidal campaign.

Viking_Hippie,

Hell, they even censured a Palestinian-American congresswoman for pointing out that obvious fact!

Viking_Hippie,

Even if there was, that wouldn’t excuse shooting first and asking questions never like the IDF did this time and every other of the thousands of times they’ve murdered civilians.

Viking_Hippie, (edited )

Yeah, it’s not about targeting Hamas. It’s about killing as many Palestinians and destroying as much of Gaza as possible. They said so themselves

Viking_Hippie,

No, your question was itself a whataboutism (what about Hamas? Have they ever tried to trick IDF that way?).

I simply replied to the underlying assertion that, if they have, then the IDF are somehow the least bit justified in assuming that it was Hamas. Which they wouldn’t be.

One of them shouted “look! Terrorists!” and they just started shooting without ever considering that he might be wrong.

Viking_Hippie,

Plus the classes are ridiculously unbalanced! “Billionaire” and “loud religious idiot” need to be nerfed yesterday! Don’t even get me started on how game breaking playing a hybrid of those is!

Viking_Hippie,

Can I have 15 years in stead? Better make that 50, starting a decade ago.

Viking_Hippie,

Not really, since I’m only a viking in the colloquial sense of living in Scandinavia and so are everyone around me 😁

Viking_Hippie,

Well if you’re ever in Aarhus (second-biggest city in Denmark), let me know and I can lovingly slander the other two Scandinavian countries over coffee or beer 😁

Viking_Hippie,

street legal

Doubt it tbh…

Viking_Hippie,
Viking_Hippie,

Huzzah! Let’s do crime together!

Viking_Hippie,

Yarr! 🎮🎭🏴‍☠️❤️

Viking_Hippie,

I was about to try to, but then I realized that my native language having the same word for “sheep” and “gets” (får) makes your query absolutely unsearchable 😂

Viking_Hippie,

Same. Most stressful and generally annoying time of year by far.

Viking_Hippie,

I don’t even know why I got that manga

Did you like math a lot as a kid? Maybe it was the bizarre choice to have a fraction in the title that first attracted you? 🤔

Viking_Hippie,

The other letter was a real letdown: just an ad for strawberry-flavored creatine powder.

Viking_Hippie, (edited )

Spoilers ahead, obviously.

Fallout 3

The “good” ending as a reward for doing everything right is basically suicide for the greater good.

Even if you have a specific NPC follower who can do the same thing unharmed, the epilogue text and voice-over basically calls you a coward for making the rational choice to have him do it and pretends that it killed him even though, as established, it doesn’t harm him at all.

Viking_Hippie,

Then he goes out into the deserts and it’s like 100 years passes.

It’s like Arizona, only in reverse!

Viking_Hippie,

Yeah, those are a LOT better than the main campaign! There’s some great quest mods too 🙂

Viking_Hippie,

Hot take

Intended or not, nice pun 😁

Viking_Hippie,

At least they’re imported crackers. From Canada, but still! Exotic!

Viking_Hippie,

PREGANTE!

Viking_Hippie,

Because she’s a silly Billie that’s known to pull such pranks.

Viking_Hippie,

Ivar is INCENSED!

Viking_Hippie,

And once you unwrap the long capitalism box, you find out that it’s an enormous veiny dildo covered in sandpaper, glass shards, human shit and fox piss.

Viking_Hippie,
Viking_Hippie,

They’re so cute and spikey and angry

Cute ✅️

Spiky ✅️

Angry ❌️

They’re quite timid, actually. If they’re anything like here in Denmark, they’re completely silent and crepuscular, so you have to be lucky to spot one. In my 40 years I think I’ve seen 3-5 total.

But yeah, they’re adorable and it just so happens that the last time I saw one was just a few weeks ago and I got a picture 😁 https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/75b163d5-9b75-4423-a766-3ed0de193b81.jpeg

Sorry about the blurriness, the tradeoff of Night Mode 🤷

Viking_Hippie,

Mine does one and then if I take too long opening it after that, it does two really huffy ones.

Viking_Hippie,

They lived roughly 15 minutes longer after that moment.

Viking_Hippie,

Author didn’t want to.

Viking_Hippie,

The reverse ceci n’est pas un pipe argument? Nice!

Viking_Hippie,

Also, the question is basically “would robbing you be worth it?”

Viking_Hippie,

You’re meant to eat the crust, not fuck it

Really? Guess now I know why everyone has been looking at me funny after the company pizza party 🤔

Viking_Hippie,

So THAT’S what BFO stands for? I knew it standing for Big Fucking Owl was highly unrealistic, but gotta admit I’m still a little disappointed…

Viking_Hippie,

Also, they are goong to rename him soon, so maybe Big F’n Owl will be the official name soon

Only very few times in my life have I been more eager to sign any petition, let alone one that probably doesn’t exist 😄

Viking_Hippie,

I’m sorry, but I have to: do Buffy Fish Owls kill and/or date vampire fish?

Viking_Hippie,

Thanks! Gonna change it to the latter! Is that how to do a “clean” cross-post in general, pasting lemmyverse.link in front of the url?

Edit: throws an error for me now, gonna change it back for now…

Viking_Hippie,

Yeah, that’s the link I used. Copy-pasted the link it in stead of using the cross-post function itself (which doesn’t work properly in my experience) but got the same result or even worse 😮‍💨
