funkless_eck,

it has a big red button that says “don’t speak to me” though

if I had to speak to them it wouldn’t have that button

funkless_eck,

you can make it illegal to sell and only a fine for getting caught. Major retailers won’t do it, cornershops(“/bodegas” for the US) that sell under the counter will do it until they get caught, new ones won’t bother because they want their business to be a success, and honestly, probably make more money on chewing gum than black market fags

nicotine high isn’t worth the effort to a dealer to sell if you’re used to selling fent, coke, weed, triple sod, clarky cat etc

gone within a generation. if you really want it, go to France, smuggle it. it’s probably not worth it.

Your friend loves your least favourite politician. What do you say?

This question’s on my mind because my coworker today mentioned they would vote for Trump if they could (mind you this is 2023, in Canada). I don’t generally have the talking points or the desire to fight about it, so I just deflected the conversation. But I often wish I was more strong-willed and could try to figure out why...

funkless_eck,

it’s hilarious to me - as an immigrant- because immigration is a massive boon to the economy.

I literally paid to be here, without the cost of raising me as a kid, and even if I eventually become a citizen I’ve cost the country much less than a citizen by not growing up here, and not taking any essential services or support, and then I contribute more not just by paying fees to be here but being held to a higher standard. If you grow up poor they don’t kick you out, but if I don’t earn enough money they kick me out, and that amount of money is safely above the cost line of my presence in the country.

funkless_eck,

no I have not heard of anything and I would like to keep it that way

funkless_eck,

it’s invite only, which first makes you think, “oh cool - no spammers!”

but then you realize you just need one spammer to get in and now they only invite spammers, and control their invites… as a form of spam! Flooding the net with “cheap” invite codes (only $10!) and multiplying.

funkless_eck,

and learn on the job if it doesn’t.

funkless_eck,

totally different from every other joke and meme in history

kilroy was here he said you just lost The Game

funkless_eck,

this turns the above meme into a cycle

funkless_eck,

I mean it was the grandparents not the kids. If we had the same vote today, no new voters, no one changed their vote, it would be REMAIN, as enough LEAVE voters have died in the interim to swing the vote in the other direction.

funkless_eck,

you’re telling me you slow down to 25mph on the freeway if you can’t see around the bend?

funkless_eck,

I really like a lot of Lovecraft books, in the same way I like Le Carré’s spy novels: they mix the mundane in with the action to build suspense and pacing.

If it was all crazy all the time it would be boring. Compare Reanimator the schlocky b movie to the story its based on: the original story has much more poignant commentary about death in war and missing fallen soldiers when back home. The b movie is just sensationalism.

However, I also recognize that a lot of it was inspired by his racism. The cult of cthulu is likely a metaphor for interracial marriage, and the squid-human hybrids are a warning against (quelle horreur!) mixed race babies.

CD Projekt recommends starting a new game when Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.0 drops: 'starting fresh will enhance your overall gameplay experience' (www.pcgamer.com)

Cyberpunk 2077 is getting a mammoth-sized update, titled Update 2.0, tomorrow, September 21, and it promises to be a bit of a game changer. A police revamp, a progression overhaul, a new cybernetics system, vehicular combat, DLSS 3.5—it's vast, and thankfully separate from the Phantom Liberty expansion due next week, so you'll...

funkless_eck,

played the OG version on release. there is a “point of no return” message for the end of the game. If you complete game or save after that point and reopen that save you’re locked into that ending based on what you did prior to crossing the point of no return.

so the playable sections all come before this — so if you missed something after completing you can reload your “Meet [Person] At Embers Bar” save (the point of no return) — go do it with your endgame character and then optionally revisit the final section if you like.

from what I gather on loading up an old save after this patch you’ll have to re spec your character and may have missed minor things, but can start all the new content from your …Embers save.

From a new player perspective you can choose to do the DLC or the vanilla game at any order or at any point- gated by your character level and progression, similar to how Fallout DLC works.

funkless_eck,

you can, though, at any time and (mobility permitting) take up any kind of bizarre hobby.

clowning, clog dancing, building box cars, collecting skulls, yodelling…

TIL In the Hot Coffee lawsuit against McDonalds,punitive damages were given due to McDonalds intentionally overheating coffee to save money on refills (www.poolelg.com)

During the trial it was revealed that McDonald’s knew that heating their coffee to this temperature would be dangerous, but they did it anyways because it would save them money. When you serve coffee that is too hot to drink, it will take much longer for a person to drink their coffee, which means that McDonald’s will not...

the same goes for the Dingos Ate My Baby woman

Whole Foods argues it can ban BLM masks because the Supreme Court let a Christian business owner refuse same-sex couples (fortune.com)

Amazon.com’s Whole Foods Market doesn’t want to be forced to let workers wear “Black Lives Matter” masks and is pointing to the recent US Supreme Court ruling permitting a business owner to refuse services to same-sex couples to get federal regulators to back off....

I refer you to Skunk Anansie, though.

I’m down to recite Whitey’s On The Moon again.

funkless_eck,

we could hang ourselves instead… we’d get an erection.

funkless_eck,

because someone else being non-binary doesn’t make you non-binary?

they’re not saying no one is allowed a gender, or that other people don’t have genders

they’re saying their gender is a different one beyond the usual two.

like how you don’t have to just choose between vanilla or chocolate because strawberry also exists.

funkless_eck,

yeah you’re not also supposed to ask why someone is a certain race, religion, height, weight etc

and lol at the idea of being non binary is “less hassle”

funkless_eck,

i don’t think it’s hard to divine the meaning of “non” - it means not

and binary means “choice between two options”

put together it means “not one of the two options.”

I believe I already covered your other points (as did the other person replying), but they did reveal their gender.

Consider this: It’s more like

“Did you watch the soccer or tennis match last nigjt?”

“I don’t really like sports, I watched a movie instead”

“why are you keeping it a secret whether you watched the soccer or tennis?”

Its not a secret, there just happens to be more than two choices.

“is your name John or Christopher?”

“neither its David”

“why are you keeping your name a secret!”

etc

I prefer the Red Dwarf version where they save him, the world turns out worse, so they send him back in time to kill himself from the Grassy Knoll.

Guillermo would definitely be the put upon DM, but you would have to wait for Colin Robinson to stop asking about the minutae of the rule book, or interrogating every NPC: “I, um, ask the bartender what kind of, um, hops the beer is made from as I, uh, have an, um, allergy.”

In a conversation with Mike Solan, the head of the Seattle Police Officers’ Guild, Seattle Police Department officer and SPOG vice president Daniel Auderer minimized the killing of 23-year-old student Jaahnavi Kandula by police officer Kevin Dave and joked that she had “limited value” as a “regular person” who was only...

funkless_eck,

refer you to “what the fuck can we do to stop them?” from the original post, then.

funkless_eck,

The “I am rubber you are glue” defense doesn’t work here.

You: “Force cops to give up their guns”

Me: “How?”

You: “Force cops to give up their guns”

Are you trying to say essentially there’s no path forward except the fascist militarization of law enforcement at the sacrifice of all (other than 2A) Constitutional liberty?

funkless_eck,

So, what do we do?

funkless_eck,

ahhhh my feelings

funkless_eck,

I mean the argument will always require context. You could stab Gervais in the leg and say “but I found it funny, I must be happier than you.”

There is a line and there isn’t. Some audiences are big, some a small, the same audience can like one thing and dislike another and there’s no way to tell, the exact same audience could like the opposite the next day.

In the end, we sometimes make work, and sometimes it’s good and sometimes, regardless of the quality, it is liked, and regardless of all, it is popular.

funkless_eck,

all my examples previously were USA.

funkless_eck,

you’re saying no American companies use cotton or lithium ion batteries?

funkless_eck,

you’ve conflated several of my points that were in reply to your specific questions. I think you should go back and read what you asked me for.

funkless_eck,

I only responded to what you asked. I was assuming you had a point at the end of it all.

I still maintain its not that silly that one person once worked in a place where they had draconian rules about what you could do while working.
