But the flamethrower is already a compromise on my preference for a Davy Crockett...

“Working on plans for eradicating”? Vacuuming?  Are these guys aware flamethrowers are unregulated and available to anyone?  

Same reason I can’t really be bothered to give a shit whenever some imbecile is ejected from his/her vehicle to their death in an otherwise survivable crash because seatbelts didn’t comport with “muh freedumb.” One of the infelicities of idiocy is that dire consequences sometimes attend its practice.

Mitnick’s books (esp the autobiographical Ghost in the Wires) are pretty entertaining, the more so given how a surprisingly large proportion of his exploits were facilitated more by social engineering than command-line nerdery.

Considering their preferred approach to date has been hitching their wagon to, ye gods, Electronic Arts and Ubisoft (literally the two worst publishers in the entire industry), this is in fact a huge step forward for them in terms of decision-making. If the NFL dropped it’s horseshit exclusivity agreement with EA and…

Hell, I’ll bet most of them couldn’t spell “consent” if their lives depended on it.  

Does he report to a Colonel Klink?  

Pretty sweet Thayer-style camouflage, looks like they’re planning on lying in wait to ambush a frigate or something.

They have, e.g. Psyonix w/ Rocket League (F2P now, but was a PS+ game at launch like five years before that happened) , whoever made Fall Guys, I think maybe there were some others. Hell, as far as that goes, Sony apparently let themselves be convinced, otherwise how did MLB: The Show 21 arrive on Game Pass at launch?

That’s Sony’s favorite trick, just in recent memory they’ve pulled the same stunt with Control, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Star Wars: Squadrons, etc., etc.  

500mg intravenously? Jesus christ, back in college I insufflated 200mg on one occasion and the last 50 had to be force fed me as I was flat on the ground, having transformed into pure energy as I flowed towards the center of the universe or some shit. I’m also closer in mass to a gorilla than an average human, and…

No kidding. If your “business model” requires actual fucking serfs to function, you’re a shit business person and simple Darwinian logic demands the extinction of your enterprise.

It’s remarkable to me that, deep into the 21st century now, Henry Fucking Ford remains far, faaaaaar more progressive on the issue of labor compensation than most modern American executives.  Ye gods.

Believe me, they’re still a novelty for the cretins plying Wisconsin’s roads; I live in MN but work across the river and the only roundabout in the area is on the WI side. It’s been there for, shit, at least five years, and to this day, it’s a miracle if you can pass through the thing without encountering some dipshit…

This is a seriously stupid corporation. Literally the only thing MS has going for it with home consumers, other than simple inertia, is the duration of support it typically offers for its OSes. Telling someone with a 7700K and GTX1080 that the four-year-old machine they paid over two grand for (and which can still eas…

Well, if you think there’s even a chance, you had better order it now, because if it winds up being a requirement, once the OS is close to coming out, your chances of locating a daughterboard module for a particular mobo at less than a 500% markup are beyond infinitesimal, there is no way on Earth the OEMs are going…

What about Chief Lazarus in Lethal Weapon 5?  

Just the fact they admitted to it without there being incontrovertible video evidence on YouTube and an attendant hue and cry from the public already means they’re better than 95% of US law enforcement agencies by default...

Every American home improvement store owner must be a raging asshole, because John Menard is an ultra-rightest tool of the first order (and a Trump “economic advisor” to boot), and an exploitative piece of shit who became the richest man in his state by grinding the faces of his own employees.

Yes there is: the fact that Motorola/Lenovo would rather collectively drink battery acid than provide a security update even one minute past 24 months from a model’s launch date (36 only for their AndroidOne models)—not the date of actual purchase, the date on which the phone first entered the market—meaning if you…
