I’d prefer to just bury them in soft peat for 3 months and recycle them as firestarters.

Weird, I was literally just thinking about FLoB last week, and meant to see if he ever got there.

My wife asked what I was doing, so that side tracked me into explaining the Far Lands, and we ended up playing Minecraft for the night.

I honestly expected it to take WAY longer to get there.

If I wanted to go through the process of trying to recover my facebook, I guarantee I would get a few dozen people tossing out hand emojis and saying “amen” before anyone notices I’m not talking about the christian god

If there’s two things I cannot fucking stand, it’s people who are intolerant of other’s cultures… And the Dutch.

In the current world, we don’t care about what you should and shouldn’t do to protect yourself, but only about what appears to be proper

We can’t actually DO anything, because they haven’t officially declared an open war, and defending yourself against attacks just wouldn’t be proper

Now please go quietly protest away from anyone that considers it an inconvenience. It’s what’s proper, you know.

Note: I am from the US and when I say “we” I mean the collective peoples of earth, not to indicate I am from the UK.

I used to play black ops 1 a shitload. I was fresh out of highschool and it was my first online game after getting internet. I already liked FPS games and this was interactive FPS with actual skilled people instead of shitty bullet sponge bots.

As for why people love them so much now? I have no idea. I’m sure I also wouldn’t have cared for them if I had played online games earlier in life.

I’d much rather have a compelling story nowadays.

Damn, that’s the same bass-ackwards logic that record companies use to say piracy makes them lose money.

Spoiler alert: the majority of people pirating your stuff would not have otherwise purchased it. You have lost nothing.

Similarly, the majority of people using gamepass to play the game would absolutely not have bought the game, especially since it’s the same game as last time, with new names and skins.

For instance: the last call of duty game I bought was MW3. I only played black ops 2 when someone got two copies for their birthday and gave one to me I only remember playing for the zombies. I have played a total of less than 30 minutes, from startup screen to shutdown, of all the call of duties since then. Absolutely no chance in hell I’d buy another one. But I’m sure Microsoft would have included me trying it out as a potential lost sale of every one of them.

Rude is the coworker who thinks their shirts meant to antagonize anyone left of the US version of “center” are hilarious, rude are the coworkers who talk shit about trans people on break, rude are those who spend every conversation saying “mentally ill people should be locked up and oh by the way trans people are mentally ill”, rude are the ones who make the LGBTQ employees scared that one day they’ll just come to work and find a parking lot full of people waiting to jump them because the government said it’s legal.

I consider myself quite polite when these things happen in my workplace and I’m not slashing tires or torching cars, and instead all I do is say “hey that’s not okay and here’s why…”

Doesn’t stop HR from coming and telling me I need to be respectful of my coworkers opinions. (HR guy is a democrat, but like… One of those “if you’re being oppressed please resist quietly and peacefully within the confines of the oppressive laws made specifically to target you” kind of liberals)

Remember kids: the standard you walk past is the standard you accept.

If I recall correctly, it’s the hypothesis that photons lose energy as they move through the universe, and that’s why more distant objects shift red.

Only in open mockery.

“please be oppressed peacefully”

Millions of tax dollars invested in programs, thousands of tax dollars in this case alone brought a hardened criminal mastermind to justice, over a bicycle that cost the company maybe $50 from the manufacturer.

I hope someone along the line stopped at any point to realize how colossally wasteful it was.

Friendly educational reminder that the most effective way to shoot down a drone is 12ga bird shot and clay target loads, you don’t need to pierce the body you only need to break the propellers. Your range isn’t infinite, but it’s better than video games would have you believe. Of course this information is only relevant if you decide to substitute clay target shooting with drones, as one does.

Well, depending on where I saw one, I might not even give it a second glance beyond “what was that? oh it’s a frilly superman outfit!”

for a doctor’s appointment? A bit odd, but you do you.

I’m probably overreacting, but if I saw that I’d call up the office, ask why they wrote that, and probably look for a new doctor.

In what way is how I dress relevant? Unless I’m in a superman outfit with frills sewn in, why is it so important to write down judgemental and opinionated comments about the way I dress?

I used to work in a warehouse that made a HUGE deal about the employees using the proper recycling bin so the company can get a nice check from somewhere or other for “going green”

This warehouse recieved thousands of pallets every day.

Each pallet is wrapped with hundreds of square feet of plastic wrap.

Each box is individually wrapped with maybe 10ftsq-50 depending on size.

Each box contains goods in plastic bags. Many of them with plastic clamshell packaging.

The products get unwrapped, and placed in larger boxes on shelves.

When the items get distributed to stores, the items were put in plastic bags, boxed up and wrapped in plastic wrap, boxes placed on pallets that were automatically wrapped by machines in hundreds of square feet of plastic.

None of the plastic from the warehouse floor is separated from the general waste.

Remember, it’s your responsibility to reduce waste.

I think of the shareholders, board, c-suites, and all of their friends every time I gaze upon my Guillotine.

Man, the party that went on for decades about how democrats were going to make thoughtcrime illegal sure are speedrunning making thoughtcrime illegal.

A personal recommendation, creality ender 3 v3. About $200, and it’s a solid beginner machine. You will learn a lot by getting it dialed in.

24 Karat Dubai Chocolate Labubu Benson Boone Crumbl cookie.

Oh god I feel so old.

I genuinely don’t know if this is satire or something that actually exists.

Yes, I could do some light searching and find out, but I’d rather be old and mildly scared about changing trends.

I’ve seen a reference to “Labubu” several days in a row now. Honestly it reminds me of one of those dime-a-dozen 3d printing brand names.
