honestly, it didn’t strike me as anything more interesting than a standard ponzy scheme. they had a ‘sure fire’ investment, gussied up a bunch of fake reports on how great it was, kept on selling it until it finally got too big and then didn’t cash out before it all came tumbling down. its basically one narration by st…

i fell off of it on my first attempt, went back relatively recently and had a really solid time with it. i found the trick for me was to either A. skip anything that smelled like a ubisoft open world collect X things quest or B. at least look up what it entailed and if it had any narrative value before i’d try and…

“The ‘that time of day when the sun is mostly gone, but there’s still enough light that you can claim you kept going because you thought you’d hit a deer’ house” was already taken

don’t watch the ‘hot ones’ parody then, because it makes this clip look like some sort of genius level comedic tour de force. 

that should tell you how poor the service is then, shouldn’t it?

sure, but on what? i only have an OG xbone attached to my TV. 

too bad for apple its still true

maybe? its from 2008 and i don’t know if it even has a USB connection back there.

i don’t pirate stuff. ignoring mortality or whatever, from a practical sense i don’t have anything set up to allow me to watch something from a PC on my television and i have no interest in doing so

i would love to watch it, i’ve heard nothing but good stuff and the clips i’ve seen look great. but it is a significant ask to give my information (and possibly money) to yet another streaming service for a single show

i’m sure the 5 people who have apple TV+ are very happy about this

‘it’s more about the culture of straight, white, middle-class impunity surrounding the case than the killer himself’

since when is making 200k a year in 1970's money ‘middle class’? thats the equivalent of making 800k a year now. in what world does that make this a tale of ‘middle-class impunity’ and not a tale of ‘we…

digging the grandma moses vibe for the animation, especially since the setting seems appropriate for where she lived and painted

‘Do people keep cows as pets?’

do not ask questions that you do not want the answers to. farmers and what constitutes a pet vs. livestock can get weird, fast

“Land Rover” “starts and runs,”

yeah, not buying that for a second

looks like one of them chupacabra thingies. probably looking for urban goats that the hipsters all use to mow their lawns now

firstly- this is not discussing being harassed by someone at your company, its about being harassed by someone at another company. your company is highly unlikely to defend someone from another company who they don’t pay or have any real reason to risk their own neck to protect.

secondly- if you are correct and the…

your example for why this could be a problem says the opposite of what you are arguing- it says that if someone uses their work computer to harass you, you would be able to sue them unless they’ve put safe guards in place to protect against misuse of their property (i.e. the work computer) by the employee (the person…

realistically? no. because to have access you need to be in an organization that has already been vetted as a partner of your current company. So whomever is sending this to you is sending it from their work slack, which means a paper trail and it means liability for their employer. so, someone could do it, but it…

my company already does this for that exact reason, but we don’t use slack (obviously.) its a pretty standard feature in most business chat programs, but its only useful to specific orgs so most people never know it exists unless an admin screws up the settings and opens it up too widely
