Is it unethical if they sell the kids rainbow coloured “fascist-seeking” rounds?

This just sounds like a feint by the AI companies to avoid feeding AI swill to other AIs. But like farm piggies, the AI must become cannibal.

Ladies and gentlemen, the King of Americans.

Wash down your Ivermectin with bleach.

If you ramble on and slur your words, but don’t stink of bodily fluids, people assume you are a comedian rather than a street wino or sex offender on early release.

They targeted gamers.

Gamers.

We’re a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.

We’ll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it’s fun.

We’ll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.

Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.

Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?

These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We’re already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren’t shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We’ve been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty head set. They picked a fight against a group that’s already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they’ve threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can’t is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.

Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You’re not special, you’re not original, you’re not the first; this is just another boss fight.

The sign isn’t rude at all. It’s not calling you a cunt; it’s simply suggesting that you shouldn’t be one. A subtle, but vital distinction.

When they say “trillions of new planets” they mean one new biome with the plants and rocks in a trillion different places.

Yes, I’m going to be lectured on privacy by people who are still on twitter.

You’re supposed to reply to an obvious joke, ironic statement or parody with “fake” to demonstrate that nothing gets past you.

And their fanatical devotion to the Pope.

Not as much as changing it all back when the Narcissus-in-chief finally corks it and they all pretend not to have debased themselves so shamelessly and utterly.

I love the basketball court noises in Saruman’s sanctum, like the wizards are going mano-a-mano in their best Air Jordans.

That’s just perspective. Your feet appear tiny as they are so far away.

Got to hand it to the cops. They let the rule of law have an try first before dealing with it themselves.

A “vision” like in a spirit quest?

Wait, so a “stick” of butter is just a regular shaped block of butter?

Cool, it can run for US President next if that’s still a thing.

My company dropped Slack for Teams, because it’s free with the Office subscription, so I guess they put a price on collaboration and culture. Weeks on none of the bots and integrations work properly because there’s no time to fix shit that was already working.

Y’ know, OUR country.
