It’s kind of like an older sibling that picks on you but loses their shit if someone else tries to.

1. Who are they talking about?
2. I hope they never get a partner because who know where their lips have been too

(Thinking through that last one they probably want a “pure” virgin)

Willful negligence is still as bad if not worse than Ignorance

Japan’s long-standing efforts to protect domestic farmers from outside competition, including limiting imports of foreign rice

Here’s the why in case anyone is wondering. It’s not a global issue.

I mean their 4th paragraph is valid. The rest though… yeesh

Edit: my reading comprehension sucks. I missed the very last sentence of it

Final Fantasy VI has almost 30 minutes of credits. Well worth it for the 50+ hours you can put into it. And the music is so worth it (it’s an epilogue more than just scrolling text)

But part of the point of the piracy is not just to get it for free, but to send a message that you’re not paying the publishers or IP owners

Seriously? Look up Uvalde and see what they (didn’t) do

I remember when cable was analog, channels you didn’t pay for were blocked with a frequency filter. let’s say channels 13-60 were 425-475Hz (purely an example) there would be a little device connected to your coax that would filter it out. The thing was though, they did this in the cable box usually in your yard. So all you had to do was go out at night, pop the box open (wasn’t hard) and remove the filter to get free channels.

Then they moved to digital and all things changed.

Are we sure the bill is tanked?

At this point I’d be pushing my immigration lawyer to let me appear remotely so I can’t get picked up like that.

Ever finish this?

This is what I was telling people when they were saying “well it’s against the GPDR!” and I was responding that functionally they’d have to go after every single federated instance, including those outside of the jurisdiction and deal with hundreds of other countries. And I got downvoted for it

“Calm your tits”

So in most cases the place would be immediately shut down. Any bets on that not happening.

So I’ve been on both sides of this equation. I had a rich friend growing up and they would give me random gifts like game consoles and tickets to concerts that we’d go with them. It was “pocket change” to them. As I got older, I came in to money young and started to do the same thing with my friends, and I realized why they did it and why I did it.

It’s nothing about power dynamics or holding it over others, but wanting to share in your joys and successes. I would buy dinner for friends at nice places because I wanted to enjoy something and I wanted them to also. They were my friends, I have money, why wouldn’t I want to share it? I hate when people are selfish and hoard money, so why not use it for everyone to enjoy.

You obviously haven’t seen how hard I can get. (This whole thread has been a joke since the start if you couldn’t tell… it all started with a play on words with “boner”)

I mean it’s right in the description. He’s all bones including his penis bone

Just north of Antarctica

I like my women like I like my syrup: thick and rich.
