Yeah, he could refuse to finish even a single thought.

I’ll give him a select list of hearts I want him to dance-fight his way through.

Subtitle A: “The dancing just went from ‘dirty’ to ‘deadly’.”

Subtitle B: “Watch out, he’s changed his shoes.”

If you’re a cheater, it all makes sense.

And that’s job creation right there!

Thanks to Discord, I’m able to keep merchants that “connect overbearing authoritarian entities with the data they shouldn’t have, at a price point we all can agree on” at stable, sub-full time employment status.

Truly, pillar of the economy, er community.

Not meaningless but certainly undercuts the grandstanding.

nah, ricky, you’re no potatoes at all. 🔫

Why would that be annoying instead of relieving?

I assume this is an official way of claiming when you don’t have login information.

This is the Charles, yeah? I paused on the photo and, although I’ve not been at this exact spot, got strong “Charles” vibes.

Honestly, we could expect the inanity graph to be inversely correlated to intelligence. You only need one of those lines.

I’m beginning to think companies are doing this to get people to leave by themselves

We need to signal boost this, if true, because that is an egregious waste of someone’s time and a theft of their due compensation.

Eh, I need my alone time and being at the beck and call of someone stastically likely to be a douche is not how I’d like to earn my living.

But I’m also not having a good time right now, so beggars can’t be choosers.

How did you even find yourself in that “industry”?

Are we eventually gonna get more fusion because billionaires are demanding more energy for their stupid projects?

Sure, knock yourselves out.

Wait, kids don’t use the index? How do they find things in the book?

I don’t know about your textbooks and what ages you’re referring to but I remember many of my technical textbooks had citations in the back.

“*Video game piracy is not stealing” is closer to a statement I can get onboard with. A trivial example to disprove the former statement is the classic, seafaring pirate.

But a more salient example would be pirating music. If you have a pirated copy of an album such that you don’t need to buy another and don’t stream it from any official sources, you are materially and negatively impacting that artist.

Edit: it came to mind after I posted you might hold the position “I haven’t taken anything from them and I wouldn’t have bought it regardless of my pirating, so I haven’t deprived them of anything.” A position I’ve seen a number of times and fundamentally disagree with. Not trying to be rude but I’m not going to engage with that particular thought experiment.

Define “works”?

If you’re a CEO, cutting all your talent, enshittifying your product, and pocketing the difference in new, lower costs vs standard profits might be considered as “working”.

Oh, dreadfully sorry. Shall I…just stick my neck out here? Or is this going to be a trampling? Let me know.
