I’ve got the Ikea version of these and they work great, no coaxing at all. Way easier than that stupid pull cord, I would never go back. Put them up all over the house. One of them went slightly crooked and I never did figure out why or how to fix it though. I think I will eventually get some higher quality replacements anyway.

I was thinking the same thing. Kinda wish the conveyer belts would just fling them off into oblivion or something for me.

:::slaps knee::: ohhh that’s Rich

You must be new. This is America we are talking about.

Who could possibly be motivated to do such a thing??? Hmmmm

Thats a pretty miserable take on modern life, and I’m amused that your golden era is during World War 1. Enjoy your mustard gas and spanish flu!

I was with you until the last two sentences and then you just dove overboard. Life is fucking great compared to just about any time in the past. You know refrigerators have only been around for a little over a hundred years? Same with antibiotics, antibacterial soaps, indoor plumbing, electricity, tv, radio, and obviously the internet. Sure corporate bullshit sucks, but the level of comfort we experience while not dying from minor infections by the time we turn 30 is pretty fantastic. Even with stupid rules like this video games are fucking amazing. I’m typing this message with a magic light up box that can play music, order me delivery, pay my bills, look up nearly any knowledge available to mankind, and show me things beyond the wildest imagination of anyone prior to the turn of the century. Life is amazing, we just have to keep fighting the assholes who want to keep all the awesome stuff for themselves.

Therefore, Capcom can go suck a fat shit.

Yup, took this off my wishlist as soon as I saw the requirement in the store. At least steam warns you about it. I would love to play this game but there’s so many other great games to play it doesn’t feel like much of a loss for me.

Depends on the exam. Some don’t even allow programmable calcs because they don’t want to deal with possible shit like this. I have already seen a certification exam where they provide the calculators as well.

I’ve had to provide my transcript for several job applications. Government ones seem to usually ask.

There’s a playstation overlay now? What the fuck for?

Yeah that JD Vance look. Smoke show!

Recent discussions tell me I better put the old /s in here…

We are talking about lawmakers making this demand. They don’t have a fucking clue what the difference is between all these possibilities.

Quick! Everyone change your name on LinkedIn and populate the info with some really stupid bullshit. I deleted mine years ago but I’m considering signing back up as Sir Farty McLovefarts who mysteriously looks very similar to Leon Musk.

Much like when I hear about Call of duty I get a little surprised every time I hear this series is being made still. Not because it’s bad or anything, I really dont know, its just because the series got old and repetitive to me like a decade ago. How do people just keep eating the same regurgitated stuff over and over and still love it so much??

Reading this made my finger tips uncomfortable.

This game virtually never goes on sale, is 13 years old, and remains the best selling video game of all time. The development cycle for updates is painfully slow, frequently introduces “new” elements that serve no functional purpose, and the mob voting thing has been a disaster since round 1. For how much money they rake in these updates should be far more robust if anything. Mob votes should have been scrapped immediately in favor of releasing all 3 mobs that were to be voted on. It would have been far more interesting.

The sad thing is they probably could charge for these things and get away with it. However, there’s risk of dividing the player base, and a large part of the continued appeal lies in cross play support on basically every gaming platform in existence. Renting a server is probably a whole lot more profitable when little timmy can join on his ipad while older brother is on the playstation, his friends hop in on xbox, and maybe even dad joins on his overpowered computer. As soon as you charge for the updates all those people need to pay up to continue playing together.

You have to take in money for laundering to work. This is just money hemorrhaging. They fucked up royally, I think largely by not advertising. No one even heard of it until news of the poor release numbers made headlines, and that sure didnt entice purchases.

Alright so if I was the leader of a country and looking at my enemy country’s election I would consider saying I support someone who I don’t want to be in office so that people vote for the person I do like. But then again maybe I would know that people would know that so I would choose to support the opposite person instead. But then I think to myself “they probably know that I would know that they know I know what they know. And knowing is half the battle.” And realize G I Joe might just fuck himself up regardless of who I pick so I just choose a side and laugh about it because it doesn’t matter who I choose, only that I’m saying something to fuck with that entire country.

G.I. JOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEE!!!
