Wow, reddit has fallen even further than I thought, and I thought it had fallen pretty fucking far.

To give me something to do on my phone during work hours since there's no way I'm touching the official reddit client

He's an extremely rich scumbag.

Web 3 was crypto scams, we're up to web 6 or 7 by now

The FOMO based businesses are preying on people with poor impulse control...which there are no shortage of in the nerd world.

Like you're not waiting for the person in front of you in self-checkout to fumble their way through scanning those items? Who do you think is faster at it, the boomer in front of you in line or someone who does it all day? You're just buying into the bullshit narrative you're being fed.

Remember that multibillion dollar corporations are pushing you to self checkout because they are too cheap to pay someone minimum wage to work a register. The boomers are right.

If America went from school shootings to billionaire shootings I wouldn't be mad. Think billionaires can afford pretty good security details though.

only not like the peppers intended.

I know what you're saying but also that's not how evolution works. More of a case of "the reason why an adaptation proves advantageous may change completely over time."

Yeah I don't really buy pc games before they fall below a certain price point, anyway. So I don't really care about these limited exclusive periods.

I wonder how much these deals are paying off for epic. Outside of exclusives and the weekly free games I've basically never even thought of buying a game on EGS. Definitely the worst launcher experience. Easily ignorable.

I don't think you've read enough press releases if you think this is fake.

Probably because if your business is based around profiting from American tourists, you're probably going to need to know some English. It seems to me like when money is involved people tend to find a way to communicate what they need to regardless of what languages they share, though. And obviously this does not excuse rude tourists.

Your showerhead runs OSX?

That also doesn't look anything like a USPS tracking number (which, if this were real, you'd probably already have). Pro-tip: USPS has "informed delivery" where they'll send you an email every day with scans of your mail and any packages on their way to you. Which would give you another way to know that this isn't real.

TIL, ty

This is like a PBF comic

The real issue is that they only allow port forwarding on certain endpoints (and when I was still using them, none of the endpoints that supported port forwarding were in the US which is a headache)

Yes, healers in ff14 are expected to be pushing out damage whenever possible (and in many circumstances it's possible to weave your heals between your damage spells so you don't even need to trade off DPS for healing).

This guy ff14s

Note that PIA has extremely limited options if you want to be connectable on private trackers
