Universe be like: “Oh babygirl, you thought you had a personality? Sike! It was all just trauma responses and undiagnosed neurodivergence the whole time!”

He’s pretending to hack away at foliage while deliberately leading people away from their destination and charging them for his pathfinding services.

As someone who due to dealing with chronic pain and having to pick my grooming battles often looks like the most neckbearded, “tips fedora” ass reddit mod MF that ever lived. I can imagine at least a little bit.

Like I’m not out here neglecting basic hygiene which is a step up from some of the people I’ve met. But shaving is definitely the first thing that gets dropped when my pain starts flaring up and then I start looking more and more like the kind of person that’s had a few too many “actually she’s a 3,000 year old vampire so it’s fine,” conversations.

I used to not like when people would shitpost about bigots being Secret Transes. But I’m not gonna lie, with how often these fuck knuckles have accused my cisgender wife of being trans because she’s 5’10" and rather butch looking? Or the piece of shit lady who transvestigated my at the time 2 year old daughter? I can’t bring myself to care about it happening to this “Behold, the Master Race” looking headass.

Can’t be Charlie Kirk’s, face is too big. Gotta be some unfortunate look alike’s love child instead.

IMO it’s probably most likely an overzealous bootleg detection system hitting a false positive or someone selling a really convincing bootleg.

Don’t get me wrong, Nintendo absolutely wants to kill the used market. Iirc multiple executives have been on record voicing opposition to the used game market. But I definitely think it’s more likely that they got a false positive on the “is this game pirated?” detector and nuked the console.

The thing that gets me is they’ve apparently done multiple rounds of “correcting” Grok for being too “Woke” and it just keeps happening!

Reality has a well known liberal bias headass.

Nah I assume that’s from the part of the job where they rip old bits out to put shiny new chrome in.

My understanding of the actual tabletop lore is that basically for every decent ripper you’re likely to encounter as a player there’s easily a dozen that are like what you describe.

If I can’t install it myself I ain’t getting it. All those other Rippers are third rate hacks I wouldn’t trust to chip a fucking corpse choomba.

1992 when he was an MP according to this article. He’s been saying they’re only X years/months/weeks away almost as long as I’ve been alive.

Better for the early game, sure. But have you seen the stats on some of those late game cat evolutions? The dog line starts having serious type disadvantages when you’re getting ready to challenge the gym at Waco.

I mean I’m sorry what?

Something something accusing their opposition of doing the thing that they either are currently doing, or 100% would be doing if they had the opportunity.

Well yeah the AI support is just the next iteration of confusing telephone trees and long wait times. The direct hope is that they make it just convoluted enough that a chunk of people that they before would have to “waste money” serving and fixing whatever problem they had will instead just give up without opening them up to liability for denying service. Only now they can do it while hiring even fewer actual people to handle the cases that get through.

Knowing him he’ll probably allow them to get on that “Gold Card” track without the money as a show of “combating the horrible racial injustice” in South Africa.

Every accusation is a confession after all. So it would be very on brand for them to fast track granting these people status that allows them to vote so now they’ll be the ones with the “millions of illegals voting” for them.

I think I get what it’s saying? It’s saying that while your phone isn’t directly listening to your conversations in any meaningful way they collect crazy amounts of other data on basically everyone and can piece it together in such a way that they can make some scary accurate guesses as to the kind of ads to serve you based on what their systems have gathered your interests are and where/with whom you spend your time.

I’m not entirely sure. They didn’t really seem to present much more than speculation on it.

Then they should be educated out of those ignorant views, not have their rights restricted. What are you gonna do when some wannabe fascist decides that “basic voting condition” means believing that trans people don’t exist, that climate change is a hoax, and that the ultra-wealthy shouldn’t pay any taxes actually?

The right to vote shouldn’t be restricted in any way. If you have legal restrictions then all it takes is bad actors expanding those categories and sorry, you just failed the critical thinking test because you think that climate change is real and life doesn’t begin at conception. Better get ready for your shift at Amazon, serf.

Media literacy and such should just be part of the education everyone gets.

Don’t ya just hate it when people make their harmful kink both their entire personality, and a problem for your fundamental rights? It feels weird to say it. But that’s basically what this performative Christian schtick is for people like this. They get off in it so now it’s all of our problem.

Gods I am not awake yet. I was legit confused why he was getting led away if the Lady taught Elementary school. Had to read that like 4 times before it finally clicked that the joke was she’s IN Elementary.
