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.
“well you see, it’s perfectly reasonable that he murdered a surrendered soldier, as he was just following orders!”
The “just following orders” defense still going strong 80 years later.
I’m sure it’s going to be used a lot in the coming decades, assuming the governments actively involved in horrifying human rights abuses ever see any sort of reform…
I hadn’t heard about this before this morning.
Now I want to watch everything that was going to be presented.
You know you’re winning at life and on the right side of history when you threaten people’s families to prevent them from showing an indie movie.
go fuck a duck
Poor duck…
“EU considers following modern Nazi policy”
SNAKE?!
“Dutch government does X”
“It’s them fuckin Americans again”
They might.
Personally I mean the entire country goes back to pre-1948 borders.
This is exactly the dumb shit take from y2k.
I Still hear people go on about how “it was supposed to be this big thing and then nothing happened! Smart people are so dumb!”
Yeah nothing happened because a lot of smart people worked very hard to fix the goddamn problem, you fucking shitwaffle.
Here? “You dum dums got so worked up thinking it would pass and then it didn’t, so the freak out was for nothing!” yeah it didn’t pass because a lot of Europeans got very upset about their governments trying to spy on them harder than ever.
I’m not European, so I can’t say how people talked about it openly on the metro with random strangers, but online? People were vocal and pissed. A PROPER government (lol can we have some of that functioning democracy please) listens to its people. This was them listening to the people.
The people’s reaction was appropriate, and necessary. And shouldn’t be lessened just because “lol you guys got so propaganda’d and it was obviously never gonna happen and I knew cause I’m so smart” is quite the take on things.
No needle in the syringe, apparently.
Still a good way to get bodyslammed into a wall. I’m not waiting to see if there’s a needle or not.
has a left-wing bias
So does reality.
But some people are, perplexingly, still concerned with “being fair”.
People like this want you conflate “the country of Israel” with “all ethnic/religious Jewish people everywhere”
It allows them to more easily call people antisemitic when you criticize the Israeli government.
Even IF Israeli intelligence hadn’t ignored reports of potential attacks, and even IF they hadn’t intentionally lowered security in order to make potential attacks worse, all in order to give them and excuse to do the thing they already wanted to do, committing genocide in response is a FULL FUCKING STOP “no”
reads manual
You’re only confused because I’m dumb! For some reason I was thinking toner and laser were separate types.
I bought a toner printer in 2020 and I’m still on the first replacement cart. I have over 2000 pages printed.
Considering I spent $80, plus $40 on the new two pack of toner, I consider it money well spent.
I do wish I had bought a laser printer though… There are things I would like to begin printing that will be several thousand pages after it’s all finished. Mostly reference materials. DISREGRD THIS I DUM
I used to play black ops 1 a shitload. I was fresh out of highschool and it was my first online game after getting internet. I already liked FPS games and this was interactive FPS with actual skilled people instead of shitty bullet sponge bots.
As for why people love them so much now? I have no idea. I’m sure I also wouldn’t have cared for them if I had played online games earlier in life.
I’d much rather have a compelling story nowadays.
Damn, that’s the same bass-ackwards logic that record companies use to say piracy makes them lose money.
Spoiler alert: the majority of people pirating your stuff would not have otherwise purchased it. You have lost nothing.
Similarly, the majority of people using gamepass to play the game would absolutely not have bought the game, especially since it’s the same game as last time, with new names and skins.
For instance: the last call of duty game I bought was MW3. I only played black ops 2 when someone got two copies for their birthday and gave one to me I only remember playing for the zombies. I have played a total of less than 30 minutes, from startup screen to shutdown, of all the call of duties since then. Absolutely no chance in hell I’d buy another one. But I’m sure Microsoft would have included me trying it out as a potential lost sale of every one of them.
edit: wow, Redditors are better at accepting the truth, lol
So go pander to them.
If I own something, I can do whatever I like with it because it’s mine.
If I can’t do what I like, it’s not truly mine.
Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I’m just mildly irritated.
Good for pc players though, it’s something!
Ooh, sweet! A middle eastern country that Americans can name is making improvements!
Military Industrial Complex: absolutely fucking not
It’s crazy how quickly things can improve when global superpowers aren’t fucking carpet bombing them.
I don’t trust an ICE thug to know the difference between night and day, let alone different asians/pacific islanders.
The ONLY Asians I’d expect them to be able to identify are russians.
Can’t even be relied on to feed it’s people.
The biggest fucking joke of an empire in human history.
