Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
It’s become very clear over the last 20 years that most people in charge all just assumed everything would continue to coast, the status quo would never change, and have absolutely no idea what to do when someone grabs the steering wheel and jerks it into the oncoming lanes.
Be careful what you wish for. Death may not be as peaceful as you believe
I’m sure they will.
And as long as none of them try profiting off it, Nintendo has no leg to stand on with their usual C&D bullshit.
The spectacle of it would certainly boost sales for a little bit. How much and whether it covers the development time, who knows.
I’d do it on principle alone, but I’m a petty bitch.
Nintendo can sue me any day, I’m out here making RC hang gliders and making tiny 3 second games where the only purpose is to pull out a glider and put it away instantly.
It’s the capitalism way.
“The company with the best, cheapest product will come out on top… Unless the shittier company has more money and lawyers and then they sue everyone else into the ground for even attempting to break into the market.”
Shit like this is why I haven’t bought a Nintendo product in many years.
They might think it’s keeping their profits up, but it’s hurting their business, as a lot more people than me feel the exact same way.
Not once in my enlistment, such as it was, did I question what was in the pants of fellow service members.
Nor did I question their capabilities when they were needed.
Because I’m not an insecure idiot with the maturity of a child.
“Well the guy is pouring gasoline everywhere and kept playing with his zippo lighter screaming about how he’s burning my house down, I have to go talk to him if I want to push back on his plan”
Lmao no I grew up in the 90s, and we only got cheap secondhand n64 games. The apartments I grew up in were in the middle of trailer parks, but they all owned the land their trailers were on so I’ll leave it up to the reader to determine who was more bougie.
My dad was the one who wanted the consoles and he isn’t tech savvy, so until I got my own money, it was always “plug and play” things, none of those new-fangled computers until Windows ME.
And hilariously, I got an old macintosh in the mid 2000s and had fun figuring everything out by trial and error based off what I knew of computers at the time. Even had the x wing game on several floppies.
I would have loved having a computer when you had to actually know how it works to use it.
I remember waiting for next month’s issue of different gaming magazines… I never bothered knowing which magazine it was, I just waited for my dad to return from the store with whichever one he wanted that day.
Honestly I miss in-depth game guides with the two pages of ASCII art at the top.
Younger me would have been blown away that reading would help me beat games in the future.
For the record, I have a small library now but when I first started playing NES-N64 games, I absolutely hated reading and never would have cracked open the manuals.
Found this out completely by accident once after my sister and I played some Mario.
I had the 2nd controller still plugged in, and while shooting the ducks I stepped on the controller and the ducks moved differently.
From the on, every time someone wanted to play duck hunt I would grab a second controller and make it harder for them.
Bonus knowledge: the original game works by a light-sensitive sensor in the blaster tip, and when you pull the trigger, the screen goes black and a white square appears whee the ducks were, in a specific order. If the game controller detects the light square, it counts as a “hit” on whatever duck was in frame. You can cheat by pointing the blaster at a white light and pulling the trigger. It will just go through them one by one as you squeeze, thinking the light is the duck square.
Who wants to link arms and block the parade 1989 style?
Any other takers?
You are not going to be depressed when you start to get a nice body.
Lol
LMAO, even.
I dropped from ~300 to 167lbs between april 2014 and March 2015, I had a 6 pack and had more energy than I ever had in my adult life.
Still depressed as fuck.
Being in shape won’t fix your psychological problems.
A 7 million fine for stealing 1 billion in profits.
Just another day in late stage capitalism.
Of course someone usually has to go to jail for something so public, so Steve from accounting is getting his “jailbird bonus” and will be admitting to fraud, and spend 4 months in a hotel cushioned cell. He also gets weekends off.
In my experience, it’s either total incompetence of the people in charge, or it’s malicious in order to “catch” people doing something bad.
Like a bait car, but way more malicious since the person getting in the metaphorical car doesn’t even know it’s not their car because the keys worked, and nobody bothers stopping them for a few days so they get extra criminal charges.
birth bath
Uhhhhhh you should probably at least drain out the placenta fluid…
It’s 1am an I am deeply offended by such a personal attack.
The day an automated system reduces my pay for socializing all of 3 seconds to myself is the day I begin welding steel plates to a bulldozer and go for a drive through upper mansgemt offices.
That one I think is more “the people in charge figured they would all be dead before it became a problem”
I fully expect that if the cure for aging was discovered, billionaires would suddenly care a LOT more about climate change.
