You were more subtle than my friends. In the computer lab, we would just change “the” to “fuck”

Did they actually do that or are you making shit up?

As a competitive smash player, fuck Nintendo and I can’t wait for Rivals 2 to come out

We’re talking about leftists here. The #staged and #flaseflag ideas are conspiracy theories that the would-be assassin was actually planted by Trump to boost his campaign. These are theorized by people that don’t like Trump.

Yeah it’s not the best option. But it did popularize the form factor

I think most PowerA controllers don’t have gyro or NFC. PowerA is what you’re most likely to find as a 3rd party controller.

On the other hand, you can play with your hands in completely different locations which is nice for being lazy on a couch.

They actually sent it back to a lower court to classify the charges.

Has this changed? It used to be that sexting was explicitly just referring to sending nudes and the surrounding horny conversation. If you’re right, the definition has broadened to include flirting or locker room humor.

What should really happen is Dr Disrespect should release the DMs (after redacting any details of the minor) so we can stop speculating about how bad this is.

Great. I went to Combo Breaker over the weekend and managed to convince some of the out-of-town talent to come to the monday-night local tournament I help run. It was a great success adding to a string of great monday-night tournaments. We’re steadily making this tourney THE weekly local for my city. Feels good.

I shared that experience. I also was actively excluded from all sorts of things (including essential services) because I was a foreigner. Whenever a group of expats got together, at some point in the night, the conversation would be about how everyone got discriminated against recently.

Japan simply is xenophobic. I lived there for 2 years. That’s just a fact.

He saw that pic of the Pope with drip and it spooked him. This is a joke but that pic actually spooked me. It was the first AI pic I saw that I thought was a real photo.

You’d be surprised. I used to work in a rural factory. All the big burly red-neck older men were on tiktok during their smoke breaks.

They claimed that the government was focusing on this one issue when really it was a small part of a much larger legislation. Whether it’s good or bad is a separate judgement.

This was part of an overall package including aid to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan.

Personally, I just find it really disappointing. This Tik Tok issue could have been an opportunity to improve privacy and reduce data collection across the board. Instead, it’s a surgical strike in order to not disrupt American tech companies doing the same thing.

What will happen is that Bytedance will sell the US Tik Tok to an American VC firm and it will continue data hoarding as before. This time, the US government will be getting the data instead of the CCP. I’d rather nobody got it.

At first glance, it does not appear to even be a truck.

I think this is actually it’s biggest selling point. Over the last couple of decades, trucks have really all converged on the same styling. They all look tall, brawny, hyper-masculine. The cyber truck isn’t going to appeal to someone that wants an F150, but it will appeal to someone that wants some F150 functionality without all the truck bro image. I wouldn’t ever want one, but I get it.

If you’re trying to play with your son, Smash Ultimate is good. It also has a good amount of single-player content.

I used to work in an automotive plant. The automation generally isn’t to reduce headcount. It’s to increase capacity. The existing employees can be used more efficiently. I’m sure it’s been used to reduce head count but I’d wager that it’s rare.

You know what I find funny? Workers have been talking about automation since the industrial revolution and it’s been largely dismissed every time. Now that AI is threatening white collar jobs, it’s a real issue that needs addressing.
