Oh, see, that’s your problem. You’re supposed to put beans, rice, meat, cheese, lettuce, guac and whatever else you prefer inside those the taco shells or tortillas, not tasteless mush. I’m glad we got to the root of the issue.

Well, you’re entitled to your opinion, I suppose, even if it’s wrong.

You’re distributing copyrighted material so the short answer is “Yes”, but the longer answer is “Probably, but it really depends on a lot of factors that you haven’t disclosed, like your location. It could certainly get you in trouble with MEGA regardless; whether it will get you in trouble with the law comes in large part down to the laws governing wherever you live.”

The chances of anything coming of it are another matter entirely and you may consider it worth the risk if you feel that chance is low enough.

Maybe AI isn’t so bad after all. In fact, they should implement this in more locations.

The cargo company should be prosecuted for littering. Unless they can convince some benevolent locals to go help them clean up the spill.

Whether they’re surprised or not, going public with it was a good marketing ploy because I never would have known about the game if they hadn’t, and I bought it. I’m sure many more of their sales can be attributed to the same.

I have played the game. There’s far more pornographic games on Steam. All of the nudity is censored, there are no kids or even characters that could be mistaken for kids in the game, and it’s obvious in its intent - there’s nothing that I’d describe as even approaching titillating; the whole experience is clearly just intended to - and successfully so - make you feel uncomfortable and unsettled. The scene in question - the one that previously had the young girl - is particularly unsettling specifically because of how it normalizes everything else that’s going on, and I agree with them that the scene works better with a grown woman than it would have with a kid. There’s no reason for this to be banned on Steam.

If you earned 100,000 bits every day since the first day the Earth existed, you wouldn’t even be half way there today!

Yeah but that isn’t as impressive sounding.

Did you know the wayback machine saves 150,000,000,000,000 bytes worth of webpages every day?! If you stacked 150,000,000,000,000 bytes end to end, they would reach from earth to the moon and back SEVEN TIMES! That’s enough bytes to fill 18 American football stadiums!

Tangential to the point of the article, but this:

Mitchell described how preppers make ready for specific forms of societal collapse, based not on the likelihood of the event itself, but rather, based on how useful they would be in that situation. For example, a water chemist has made extensive preparations for an event in which terrorists poison the water-supply. When pressed, he couldn’t explain why terrorists would choose his town to target with an attack like this, but basically thought it would be really cool if the only person who could save his town was him.

actually strikes me as the best / sanest form of prepping, as long as everyone does it. Imagine a scenario where the water chemist has a plan to save their town from a contaminated water supply, the electrical engineer has a plan to save their town from a wide-spread power grid failure, the EMT has a plan to save their town from the collapse of the emergency response system, etc., such that no matter what disaster befalls them, someone is there who’s ready to step in and apply their expertise for the betterment of the community as a whole.

Well, thanks for bringing Epigraph to my attention!

This seems… so completely not worth getting upset over. What image was supposedly censored?

I’m sure there’s some external influence, too. My corpse tolerance would be a lot different if it’s extremely hot outside than if it’s chilly. If I’m at risk of heat stroke, I’d maybe even swim with a corpse making audible noise. If I’m physically on fire, I definitely would.

Maybe the real question is, “How large would a corpse have to be to stop you from swimming in the pool?”

Well, the fact that 87% of the respondents were from Canada already proves that it isn’t representative. Was the survey posted to lemmy.ca, perhaps?

I don’t have a better survey to share, but I think we could probably do better than this if we re-ran the survey now and made sure it was publicized on all major instances / communities.

Velcro on the back of the clipboard and on the side of the cart? Stick the clipboard to it for easy retrieval, and you don’t have to carry a bag.

I play D&D whenever I can find a group to play with, and kobolds have long been my favorite ‘race’ to play as, so I’ve accumulated a collection of kobold characters. Many of the folks I chat with online know me through that lens, so I made it my online identity. A coterie of kobolds, if you will.

Plus, the mental image of a group of kobolds sitting in front of a computer - maybe with one on the mouse and two on the keyboard, typing away together NCIS style, amuses me.

How much bullshit would you propose we put up with before developing an opinion about someone? They got banned, then made a new account and came here to complain about it with frankly juvenile rhetoric and while throwing insults at mods. That’s all I need to form an opinion of someone. If they want to change that opinion, they’re welcome to take steps to do so.

Username checks out?

I know nothing about the situation that resulted in the ban and won’t comment on it, but based purely on your attitude and rhetoric in this post, I’m inclined to think that it was warranted and that, honestly, we’re probably better off without you.
