I’ve been moving on with my life regarding this since about 2005, but it has failed to move on from me. I’m not sure what’s so funny about going “HUNTER2 HYUCK HYUCK HYUCK” every time you see the word “password” on the internet, but whatever, man, it’s clearly more popular than I am because y’all just can’t stop doing it.

Please leave the stupid reddit jokes back on reddit.

This dead horse was beaten into a very fine paste 10 years ago and it wasn’t funny back then either.

I’ve got a time-traveling kick in the nuts prepared for whoever invented wall-humping for unmarked secrets. I first remember this from Wolfenstein 3D but I’m not sure if it existed before then.

I saw how he treated the birds and squirrels, that boy ain’t in heaven.

'Course I’m not headed that way either, so it’s okay.

Fuck yeah, heard. I’ve got a project to do tonight. Thanks!

Linux noob here, I’ve been running Mint for about a year and constantly bitching about my Nvidia card’s performance vs. Windows. I have the most updated closed source drivers installed, but cooking shaders on games still takes a half hour and many games run like trash even after precompiling said shaders. Space Marine 2 comes to mind, runs like butter on my Win10 partition but is basically unplayable on Linux.

Am I hearing that I just need to switch to Bazzite and this problem disappears?? Because on God I will do that literally tonight if that’s true. I had been holding out for a new batch of Nvidia proprietary drivers to hit the scene or else just resigning myself to having to buy an AMD card.

I’d expect that Bazzite and Mint would use the same Nvidia proprietary drivers without much noticeable change in performance, but to be honest I don’t know jack about shit about their back end behind the scenes processes so I could be wildly off base.

We don’t jail gun manufacturers either.

Be a lot cooler if you did

Honestly I’m cool with fucking up my body to have a good time, I just wish it didn’t cost me $200 for the privelege.

Take the $50k signing bonus and use it to fuck off to Belize or somewhere

Whoa, back up there. Nobody was talking about CSAM until you brought it up.

I was at a music festival about a week ago and there were several dozen people wearing these, they were kick ass

Huh. Did that come with an update? I remember trying to play HZD when I first got my steam deck and it consistently hit about 14fps during combat at the lowest settings. Completely unplayable. I just uninstalled it and didn’t try again, but maybe I should now.

That’s effectively already how SpaceX manages to function, they (allegedly) have an entire team of people dedicated to distracting Musk with bullshit whenever he visits the office so that the actual engineers can work in peace without their CEO mandating stupid ideas.

They saw the “Human eyes don’t have LIDAR so Teslas don’t need them either” and said yeah, fuck that, we can’t allow him input here.

Also alive and well in the rave scene, but we’ve always dressed funny

Edit: also, these communities probably overlap a lot…

The Nonce Formerly Known as The Nonce

The oligarchs use VPNs to make their corporations function. They won’t be made illegal. Blanket banning all VPNs in America leads to an instant grinding halt of all commerce.

You run into a subtext problem here though.

Serving shareholders’ “best interests” is not the same thing as either maximizing profits

Making this argument to shareholders means you’re telling them “I wish to shrink your profits”, no matter what else comes after that comma that’s a non-starter for an American CEO. 99% of shareholders don’t give one Kentucky fried fuck about the company, they just want free money. You get between them and their free money and you’re gone, replaced by the next failing-upward ghoul in line on LinkedIn.

The idea of having a well established, respected and non-abusive company is no longer a reality in America. The stock market is a vehicle for gambling on shareholder feelings. It’s no longer about the company at all, just about how much you can hype up the company to then pass the bag along to someone else.

Wal-Mart shareholders don’t care if Wal-Mart craters into Hell tomorrow, so long as they get paid dividends and are able to offload their shares at a profit before it dies.

Not just a right wing billionaire, JD Vance specifically although surely some others as well.
