99% sure Jarate was in the first big alt weapon patch, because it’s the last patch I enjoyed playing lol. Bow, Sandvich, Bonk, etc. came out at the same time.

One of my friends came out as trans shortly after telling me they enjoyed Rust.

Literal boomer t-shirt joke plus baby yoda for no reason.

Because humans are social creatures, and we like to know that other people understand our pain.

For example, I might complain that I got a bad review as an actor. What I need is for people to say “Fuck that critic!” and “That really sucks man.” not “Have you tried taking classes to get better?” Sure, that’s objectively the correct advice but it isn’t what even the most logical human wants to hear when they’re upset.

Was just thinking about this. Usenet guarantees a certain amount of time ~10 years, and a torrent only lasts as long as people are willing to seed. The problem is, long term seeding takes up too much individual space, and I never know when it’s necessary. Obviously I’m not wasting 500GB of storage to seed something with 100+ seeders. More trackers should offer bonus points for things with less than 2-3 seeders to ensure long term survival of the media.

I’m sure that’s the only difference between the average American and people from those countries. Same exact genetics, lifestyles, air pollution, economy, etc.

You want the real reason in a thread jerking off vegetarianism? Here goes:

1. Meat tastes great.
2. It gives me a sense of fullness that plants rarely do (except beans).
3. It’s a better protein source.
4. The iron, B12, etc. in it are more easily absorbed.
5. Every brand of fake meat I’ve tried tastes terrible.
6. It makes me feel the best mentally compared to eating other foods.

Kind of amazing how often people fall for obvious trolls. I pray to god none of the upvoters ever run across a con artist.

Nobody fearmongering in this thread seems to have any idea how it works.

A brain chip would connect to a specific region of your brain. For example, in the case of a physical disability it would only need to connect to your motor neurons using read-only connectors.

If you specifically had them implant read/write connections into your visual cortex, then sure, someone could hack it and play ads in your head but that’s kind of on you at that point.

Is serotonin just the placeholder word to use when you have no understanding of neurotransmitters? Seriously, serotonin has like a hundred purposes in the body, what are they trying to refer to?

We were delayed for an hour on an already painfully long road trip once because my dad “Couldn’t imagine why the GPS would recommend that” right before steering us into a traffic jam.

“Isn’t it crazy how people recognize viral videos on the internet?”

I’m also 28 and three quarters. Weird.

I was speaking relatively haha

Honestly I just assumed it was bad because of the forced update from Win10 thing lol. Well, that and ads baked in.

Win 12 is obligated to be good due to the “every other version of Windows” rule, which has been true forever.
