  • ... You do realize that by this analogy closing the box just traps hope (whatever its analog would be) in the box with all the negatives already escaped right? That's like the whole point of Pandora's Box. Argue a different analogy if you think this one inapplicable, but within the framework of the analogy the consequences of the "close the container after the evils have escaped" plan is well established

  • Syndrome was at least somewhat sympathetic, you can see how he got to where he was. Musk is more like

    , a loser who lucked into his "power" and abuses it thinking he's owed and still thinks he's a hero

  • His mugshot is always hilarious to see. You just know he practiced that looking for an expression that made him look tough and defiant, and he settled on "toddler intentionally shitting their pants because you said it's time for bed" as his look of choice?

  • Stalking would be one thing, reads to me like the idea is training a language model on the ex's texts to create an AI partner that acts like them so you can pretend nothing happened, which while probably safer for the other person than being stalked (as long as the training texts are never leaked which is a big if) is just sad

  • Was technically possible to dump the unique cert with a modded Switch prior to this so even used games bought before could technically be impacted, but there was no real reason to do so since modded Switches and emulators would work just fine without it. Since it's required to use the flash cart this dumper is a companion to the risk goes up dramatically

  • Nintendo Switch cartridge based games have a file that's unique to each individual cartridge. The dumper and accompanying flash cart make use of that file. If Nintendo detects two people playing while connected to the internet with the "same" cartridge, there's a high chance of them banning both consoles. So any used game anyone buys after this point runs the risk that someone dumped it, maybe an old owner who resold, maybe someone who bought and returned it, etc, which means even a legitimate user who hasn't even heard of the flash cart could get banned. There's also the potential issue of people using the tech in the flash cart once people figure out how to use those chips to sell bootlegged reproduction cartridges that have the same issue

  • There's a guest appearance by John Barron.

    I don't know if he actually did, but I always get a kick out of the idea that he dug out that old alias he had to burn in order to name another kid after himself since Don Jr was already taken. Wouldn't surprise me if someone did some digging and found someone named Eric that was mysteriously defending him at some point as an unsurfaced alias

  • The serpent is basically the first teacher within the story, a Prometheus like character freeing mortals from oppression by unjust gods to make their own decisions. Makes me wonder how the Greeks viewed Prometheus in his story (though not enough to actually look it up), to me Prometheus seems the obvious hero of the tale, but did they view him the way people view the serpent?
