Didn’t Kathy Griffin pretty much do the same thing only with many more times the consequences?

I prefer it to real spam. Way less greasy with more flavors

Dear hackers,

I want to know how to hack. I will pay you. I am the best hacker.

Thank you, Xx_hackerman_xX

PS: What is hacking?

Meanwhile, the “slippery slope” logical fallacy falls over, down a hill, and dies.

Then starts spinning, creating a perfectly cylindrical hole, and catches fire due to friction, and self cremating.

Companies even do this if you have a 5g modem.

There is a 2 hour window at the end of the month in which I am miserable.

I’m at the tip of the US’s Wang and have zero access to wired internet, so I am stuck. 😞

Oh well… whatever. Never mind.

Before June 2023, I was a mod on several Reddit communities for about 13 years and outside of Reddit since the turn of the century. I just kinda stepped back once the Reddit BS happened.

10 months later, my happiness and over all quality of life has improved. Not only am I no longer stressed (bye bye moderation based nightmares!), but I have way more time to dedicate to my passions and goals.

I thought that dedication to holding together a few niche communities and battling the “bad guys” defined me and gave me a sort of immortality.

I was VERY wrong.

Our great grand kids won’t be trolling reddit archives, telling everyone how “cool” grandpa was.

The greatest thing I ever did to improve my QOL was step away from moderating and leading communities on the internet as a whole. Doubly so if they involve political talk.

We may not have seen his encounter with the “future Federation” reminding him of the “temporal prime directive”

That said, can you remember your work mates from half of a life ago?

Human memory is good, but a life of adventure and an over abundance of scotch can give one “Swiss cheese memory” ala quantum leap

I lived in both ‘French Canada’, and France at one point in my life.

In my experience, they all consider themselves the best thing France ever made and the other side are the equivalent of “rednecks”

To be fair, they both can be right.

Coincidentally, I just got a knock-off Soda Stream from Phillips. It’s over $150 cheaper and works 2x-3x times better. I wanted to build something similar for a homemade soda bar concept, and discovered how truly cheap it can be to make soda and carbonated water at home. I was shocked at what a simple concept it is, and how much of a profit these sodas water companies make. Phillips even charging $50 for their system is a total rip-off.

Truthfully, I think the increase in quality in the Phillips machine is due to fewer parts is an “exception that proves the rule” as these in-bottle carbonators seem to work better with fewer parts. It’s just a pressure hose connected to a co2 tank. Literally, all of $6 if you were to build one yourself from parts on Amazon (or $3 if you got he Alibaba route)

I truly believe that the fewer parts the better in any DIY or commercial product due to the less chance of a failure in a part if there are fewer parts. This works fantastically for the “lower quality” producing companies, like Phillips.

My inventive and engineering entrepreneur friends and I call this “fewer parts the better” concept, a “Murphy’s law compensator” as the fewer parts there are, the fewer parts that can statistically “go wrong”

Gamers are the true indigenous people.

We were typing in games printed in magazines and hand written from friends.

That are the plots to most manhwa, too.

I just eat that shit up, thougg.

The recent popular “manhwa recap” longform trend on YouTube is the nourishment of my soul some days.

It’s rare, but every time it’s incredibly unpleasant. It’s expecting to bite into a nice soft food, but instead chomping on a piece of metal, praying that you didn’t just break a tooth.

It happened to me a few times one year when I started getting neurological disorder. It stopped once I started paying attention to what I eat, cherishing every bite.

I don’t see how people can eat with broken, bent or sharpened tines.

I accidentally bite my food instruments enough that I don’t need individual instruments to be unique.

I believe that a lot of issues lile this would be solved with legalized sex work and the destigmaization of mental health treatments.

I parents owned a cockapoo while growing up, and my siblings and I didn’t like it because it was aggressive as hell and my mother treated it like an actual factual babby.

Once my sister was eating a hot pocket, and the dog wanted it, so it mauled her badly. It jumped up on the table randomly and mauled her face. It took several surgeries to get her face back to normal. My mother lied and told the police she had it destroyed.

About 3 years later, it became paralyzed from the waist down after it attacked me. It jumped for my face and landed wrong. It didn’t die, and my mother blames me for the incident to this day, 30 or so years later.

It would piss and shit all over everything until it died of old age about a decade later. All the while, my mother treated it more and more like a baby because it couldn’t get away, and it wore diapers when my mother wasn’t too lazy.

I’m sure most of my issues with the dog were due to the owner being a shitty person.

Though after it ate part of my sister’s face, I’m convinced that it saw everyone but my mother as “meat,” which is why I couldn’t get along with the dog. I mostly tolerated it until I emancipated myself early.

I’d rather remain comfortable not buying games from Ubisoft and EA.

I refuse to waste a single dollar on every game from both companies, since we were all bent over and continue to get bent over because they just don’t care about anything but making more money.

A good example from Ubisoft is the handling of the Driver series. They kept on releasing the games in the series in a near unplayable state before when most people had dial up.

A good example with EA was the failed DRM with Spore. They only let you install the game 3 times, which glitched out to the point where people had to turn to piracy (warez and crackz) to play a game they paid for.

We vote with every dollar spent, which gives me hope when people rally around good companies that do the right thing.

You don’t need a custom ROM… That’s like lobotomizing someone because their laugh is annoying.

Search for the “side button” or “side key” to change the options.

That said, the screenshot command is what I remapped it to. This is so I can screenshot on the fly without having to do gang signs on my phone.

No way in hell I’d trust just one backup method for my data.

A 6 TB drive is less than $100 on Amazon and two cloud backups is like $30 extra a year.

“There is no point in reinventing the wheel” is my favorite saying when it comes to things like this.

If something has been done over and over again, there is no point in doing it yourself from scratch. It wastes time, money, and effort that could be spent on creating something new.

Humanity’s greatest strength is being able to add to the previous generation’s knowledge base, too!

If we had to relearn how to do the same things in the same way, in every generation, we would still be in the stone age…

When I manage folks, I expect them to steal if its already been done and especially if it’s been done to death.
