Don’t blame gamers because some of all the shitty MBAs want to speed run capitalism.

$15.99 monthly library access fee? Who knew!

Or, if you’re only a casual gamer, just $1.99 per launch.

Or just buy games on GoG.com now to ensure they’ll be there in the future. Why wait?

I remember going from 128 -> 192 MB in order to upgrade from ME to XP so I could learn programming with Visual C# 1.0. It was completely doable, assuming you manually disabled almost all the background services.

His post-grad ghost writers (“clerks”) said that.

The good old, “If it’s not your source, it’s not your computer.”

Thank you, I had no idea the first phone emoji characters were a third party add-on. That explains how they got there, since Apple is pretty notorious for not including people shaped things in their art.

The original emojis were white before the yellow and darker tones were added in 2015. Look up Katrina Parrott for the backstory. In short, before yellow was the default, White was the only option, and that’s kinda racist, and was only 9 years ago.

Yellow was simply a neutral addition to emojis that matched well with the existing yellow smiley face (which that French asshole keeps charging people for).

Thanks for questioning your assumptions. Further reading if you’re interested:

She continued, “don’t they know, we could just hand this country to Putin, right now! They’d buy it! They’d fucking buy it and call us patriots for our treason, just fucking like last time!”

Oh god, that explains so much! I didn’t realize that WoL was designed to be multiplayer, i just figured it was permanently set on impossible difficulty.

He’s been a week away from shutting down for… a dozen years?

Yes, but this is American Cartels. We can have them, too, and ours are better! 😡

Used to be, "the tragedy of the commons" didn't quite so literally mean an attack on the common resources.

That's not very reassuring, we're still only one computer bug away from that situation.

Presumably she wasn't identified as a violent criminal because the facial recognition system didn't associate her duplicate with that particular crime. The system would be capable of associating any set of crimes with a face. It's not like you get a whole new face for each different possible crime. So, we're still one computer bug away from seeing that outcome.

It’s an extremely compelling product story full of market segmentation advertisers dream of!

H100 isn’t $40, it’s $40,000. You’re making the Bloomberg Mistake: it costs $4,000,000,000 - four billion.

I can’t wait to see what clownshoes nonsense way he absolutely fucks this one up, but that’ll take a lot of liquidity he probably doesn’t have access to unless he gets the $45bn Tesla payout.

Close! It’s actually that bit on Boston Dynamics latest android that starts each morning with a nice slow drag on a cigarette.

How in the fuck did you find that, and where is the rest of the text on the page?

That, finally, explains the pink sauce lady!

Back in my day, we called that “hard-mode plagiarism.” They can’t punish you if they can’t find a specific plagiarized source!
