Once again I can confirm I am still too ambiguous to be hired.. -.-

At this rate I should just.. double down on trying to make shit..

It seems most of the same players who conspired to drive up memory prices are once again at it...

The more things change, the more they stay the same

And now the invid went up and made it worse.

I knew shit was shady. Damn surprised to admit that I didn't think my expectations for this bs to sink even lower.

They deserve every single evisceration headed their way.

Y'all should just.. do a naughty and liberate all that dram.. just saying.

I find it amusing that Microsoft, of all corps, are now starting to find out that maaaaaaybe replacing people with sledges isn't working out after all

God has a solution for all the people who desire hold the law of the jungle.

Erasure. Oblivion. Athetos.

If you follow the path of barbarism, you forsake God.

Your name will not be on the Tree.

it's been so long ago and I have been reminded that I have contributed the term "pull a david guetta" and, at the time, the context seemed right for someone who just sneaks in a USB playlist and pretends its a mix

just like people sneak in AI and pretend it is productivity

can we get an equivalent for this fuckery? I promote "promote a slopcode substitute"

You know, if you went hard to name your company after a scrying orb used by an oppressive, ancient evil villain in a renowned fictional series, then maybe, just maybe, you aren't as "progressive" as you think you are; in fact, I would go so far as to strike any notion of "progressiveness" in your stance, you authoritarian-humping shitbird.

Never in my entire life have I seen an administration with such disrespect for those who have served and those who have fallen.

Never in my life have I seen an administration skew so hard the definition of what it means to be a veteran.

The dead howl and yearn for vengeance.

The... stench of desperation fills the air, as the threat of being held accountable for their vitriol looms. Of course, they're trying to shift the blame, trying to stomp and break shit and then say "look what you made me do".

Know thy enemy, folks; willful sin comes from those who refuse consequences for the things they do. The so called "party of God" is full of these willful sinners.

It's not revenge, nor vindication. It's accountability. Your delusions of grandeur will be remedied, like it or not.

I don't write the rules...

It's always a shame, that those in power feel that being held responsible for their actions is somehow an act of vengeance, when it is in truth a vessel of accountability. Those who refuse to take responsibility for the things they do should be punished by the writs of law.

You only seethe about the fact that the pendulum swings both ways.

You tilted the scales in one direction for so damn long, you don't get to argue and whine, bitch and moan, that the scales can be tipped back.

You get what you deserve, taking but never giving. And you will give.

It's not vengeance. It's accountability. You just don't want to be held to it.

Eat the rich

Maintenance time.
FF14 is down.
ETA: 24 hours for services.
NA/EU is getting the region matching parity JP got last patch.

Once again I shall remind you: that the Venn diagram of transphobes, fascists, and pedophiles is a circle.

Out of all the genuine concerns you have for Bentley and you choose the question that carries the equivalent fixation of a pedophile. Because of course these fucking transphobes would.

No wonder you cunts had your asses handed to you.

Give 'em hell, Bentley. Shine. Blind 'em all. :nonbinary:

Logic tells me I shouldn't take this 11pm slot for varia shenenigans next month, but logic also dictates that TAS filler is boring, so I am wondering if I should fudge my sleep schedule a bit for shenenigans that'll happen next month...

Did you know Really Really Long-a-Thon is happening again 1 December? Y'all might wanna stay tuned..

See? What did I tell you? Age verification mandates are censorship mandates. The goal is not to protect kids, but to control what you say and do online.

But of course, "think of the children" -- tools already exist to bring predators to justice. This is just an excuse not to use them; this is an excuse to censor legitimate content down the road.

and don't even get started on "what about keeping children away from porn". We do have an answer to that. It's called being a fucking responsible parent. It's called reigning in predatory algorithms. It's called holding tech platforms responsible for building bespoke algorithms.

But no. Censorship is what they offer. A solution that has no problem to fix, and is a problem by and of itself.

And don't get me started on the encryption schtick. Let me say it plain: you want to nuke a metropolis because one citizen is unruly. That's what you're doing by demanding backdoors. You think breaching a dam will drown out the poison in the water. You'll flood it everywhere.

A backdoor in encryption is like having a 'maintenance access door' in the other side of a multi-lock bank vault that's built strong enough to survive a bunker-buster. Criminals *love* backdoors. Doesn't matter in what faith.

"Don't care about privacy because I have nothing to hide." Okay, post your social number, your bank account info, your work address all in plaintext? Don't look at me! You said you have nothing to hide? By not reveaing all of that information, aren't you engaged in.. *gasp* PRIVACY?!

Oh, you're such a hypocrite!

But yes, "think of the children".

It's never about the children. It's about control. Don't be fooled.

Vanity... definitely my favourite sin.

You are going to be evicted, and all the cake is gone.

Yes, there has been change, and blue has overtaken both house and senate. But my optimism is a cautious one. Because there is no greater betrayal than the one where the person the people have elected suddenly turn and represent themselves.

We did not cast our votes just to have the ones who represent us be selfish.

That's the way it should be.

Until there is actual, meaningful action undreway, I will hold my reservations.

Hold your elected accountable. Your voice does not stop at the box. Make sure they listen after they're sworn.

Your god ain' gonna bail you out of this one, bitches
