A_Random_Idiot,

Discord is not a place for technical support or documentation, or anything important, ever.

Search engines can not index discord.

archive can not archive discord.

Everything thats in discord, is in its own isolated bubble, that will disappear from history and time should the discord ever shut down, and even if its still up, its not findable by anyone searching for the problem.

Discord fucking sucks for anything but random bullshiting with friends over games.

A_Random_Idiot,

Why is there a picture of the Fukushima nuclear core in this picture?

A_Random_Idiot,

What the fuck is wrong with people.

how the fuck do you lack this much common sense? to put your fucking shitty toilet brush where you put your eating utensils?

A_Random_Idiot,

Desensitization.

Kinda like how martial artists slam their shin into a bat. eventually the shin strengthens and you don’t feel it near as bad as you did at the start.

A_Random_Idiot,

Is she still fed up with her friends insecurity after a year?

A_Random_Idiot,

This will also fix the wind turbines using up the all the wind!

most apps are just websites wrapped inside a container and made an app.

Why?

Because they dont want you to use the actual website.

why?

Cause your browser gives you a LOT of protection against invasive data mining/profiling/tracking/etc.(Not saying its perfect, We all know about fingerprinting and HTML5 canvas tracking and what have you…but its a LOT better than the information that apps can steal)

Data mining/profiling/tracking/etc that these companies want to do to you, because you are a product to them, not a customer.

And how do they do that with an app?

Permissions.

Ever wonder why your pizza ordering app has to have access to your contacts, data storage, camera, microphone, etc etc etc? Its not because its needed for you to order pizzas. Hell, you can do that on a website with no permissions, so why is it needed for an app on your phone?

So they can steal/mine your data for profiling/tracking/marketing/being sold to others/etc.

A_Random_Idiot,

also got rid of the fairness doctrine, explicitly to allow the creation of Fox News and forever change news media for the worse.

A_Random_Idiot,

This is why i dont have any interest in glass side panels.

I dont even like clear side panels, but if i have it i’ll take acrylic… sure, it supposedly scratches easier, but wtf are you doing to get it scratched in the first place? probably the same kinda stuff that breaks tempered glass, lol.

A_Random_Idiot,

Drink heavily, masturbate furiously, and fall asleep in a puddle of your own shame by 9pm.

A_Random_Idiot,

Bethesda have been on a downward spiral of main quest quality since Oblivion (possibly morrowind, never played it to say for sure).

Fallout 3 is just utterly forgettable as a game, both from a story perspective and a sandbox perspective.

Skyrim and Fallout 4s main quests are absolute garbage, and would ruin the games completely if they were not just big beautiful sandboxes to play in, with ripe and fertile ground for brilliant modding to take place in.

also I thought your name was CryptidBestiality at a glance, lol.

A_Random_Idiot,

Scheming EU to make an EU travel plan for countries that didnt voluntarily leave the EU to pursue some racist bullshit propaganda that even the people who started brexit, deep down, didnt want, and never thought would actually happen.

I agree with a lot of Rossman says with regard to right to repair and stuff.

but hes just an insufferable cunt.

I’d wager the war goes from internal, to internal civil war, if Putin dies, as various power blocks try either secure their own positions/power, or reach for more.

assuming they didnt try to blame the west, which then things get far more worse for NATO states, and possibly hot

A_Random_Idiot,

I hate that we live in a world where this is a popular enough question that a sign had to be made about it.

The fuck is wrong with people? Just rehang the lights! It takes less time and effort than getting in the car and going to Ace to ask for a deathdapter!

You have no idea how insane i went trying to figure out why clarkson farm was playing at extremely low quality, pixelated 320p on my PC before I realized Amazon just hated Linux.

Which items/products were you once able to get from local shops on a whim that you now more or less have to order online?

Sometimes I find myself shopping for things that I’d prefer to go out and get within the same day, but now I’d have to order and wait a few days to get…So I’m wondering what some of those things may be for you?

A_Random_Idiot,

appliance parts.

Used to be so many stores that sold parts for self repair. Most of them have disappeared (at least around me), and the few that remain are either a ridiculous drive away, or ridiculously expensive. Like, sure, I could drive 3 hours to your store, buy the part I need for 70 bucks, and drive 3 hours back home.

Or I can go online and order the part and have it in a day or two for less than quarter of the price.

What kind of 12 year old smartphone addict shit is this, that thinks fax machines, paper copies, cash and floppies are bad things?

A_Random_Idiot,

FFXIV is a fantastic game, with a fantastic free trial that lets you play the entire base game for free (and i think they recently expanded that to the first expansion too), and its beautiful as hell, has a fantastic story, and doesnt require a super computer to run.

Why wasn't NYC's Central Park concept copied by other cities?

I’m talking about a massive park in the absolute heart of the city. Located such that is naturally surrounded by city high rises. *People are giving examples of parks that are way off in the boonies. I’m trying to say located centrally, heart of the city, you know where the high rises are. Yes I understand nyc has more, the...

A_Random_Idiot,

because no one values green spaces.

Which is why government typically rubberstamps every developer request to clearcut new forests and turn under new grassland, to build a new poorly built development of McMansions that will probably have to be extensively rebuilt within 5-10 years due to the apalling build quality.

Same reason no one builds affordable homes. Why develop homes for the poors, for 100k, when they can make McMansions on the same land, and sell them for 1mil+ a pop.

If Central Park was proposed today, it would be decried as a waste of valuable property (and probably liberal wokeism)

A_Random_Idiot,

Yep.

Government already knows everything you owe.

They just cant tell you

Cause Tax prep lobbying said it would be unfair to their business.

So you gotta play the whole complicated game of figuring out your taxes, because H&R Cock wants your refund.

A_Random_Idiot,

I think the immediate deaths would all be from people who need electricity to run medical devices.

Followed shortly by people who require refrigerated medication.

Followed by elderly who die from exposure to extreme, unconditioned temperatures.

and that would be in the first, oh, say… week or two.

Then, with fridges full of rotted food, your first major death wave will occur as masses of people lose their absolute goddamn minds in panic and fear and start food riots/try to rob from others/raid big industrial farms/neighborhood gardens/etc, which leads to mass deaths from starvation, exposure, exertion, desperation, and gunshot.

Which will even out after about a week or two.

Then you settle in for the slow burn. 3 months out you’ll have another, comparatively small wave of deaths from people who run out of non-refridgeration requiring medications.

Then another slow burn until manufactured canned goods run out in stores and scavanged homes until a wave of starvation.

All in all, I’d say you’d probably be over the bulk of the mass deaths after 6 months, and with a significantly reduced population… Which will be to the benefit of the survivors, since less people per mile will make farming/hunting easier, and life safer… because while raiders/thieves will always be a overarching concern and safety issue, at this point, most of the desperation should have passed along with most of the desperate.

There will also be, for at least a generation, possibly two, the lingering unspoken understanding that more people than anyone would ever care to count only survived the famines and fall by eating the long pig.

A_Random_Idiot,

Israel, unfortunately.

The whole point of provoking these attacks via their violent oppression is so they can retaliate against Palestine, kill masses of innocents, and build new settlements on Palestinian land when the dust clears.

A_Random_Idiot,

I knew there had to be a dystopian take on this for Texas, of all states, to step in and prevent descrimination in HoAs.

And you blew it out of the water, thats probably exactly why. Cant have the poors live to far away cause they’d never be able to come into work and be exploited.
