It's okay, they replaced the word hard with crime.

So now the slang really is what you thought it was.

From the same article, it turns out that it was unintentional. The R has the word shop under it. It's named after a character who owns the item shop nearby, where the red arrow is pointing.

The graffiti itself appears all over the place in the subway area along with various other english words, and just happened to line up right there. It was entirely unintentional.

Which means they had to go out of their way to be offended over something that was not intentional. That way of thinking and behaving has to be so fucking tiresome. Tilting at windmills.

"The art which appears to combine two visual elements into a single phrase"

THAT MEANS IT CAME FROM YOU. YOU THOUGHT THAT AND ASSUMED THE WORST.

I didn't think it was the word retard when I saw that. The graffiti doesn't say retard it says hard. and there's a neon R a few feet away. You're going out of your way to be a retard about retard. Jesus Fucking Christ.

You've lost, so you're pissing and moaning at anything now. Pity, vengeful, and pathetic.

So you can be fired from Harvard and then hired at Harvard.

This proves beyond a shadow of a doubt they're not doing background checks and are only hiring based on skin color.

Because that's Gay.

I guess I got lucky. I got the gog version and downloaded this three or four days before this patch hit. So I have a slightly more complete version. Sure it's a minor thing, but that's how it all starts isn't it?

You want to think that they're not ideologically driven, so you don't have to live on a knife edge about this kind of stuff, but this is always how it starts. Some minor tiny thing from a cut scene you can only see once, or some posters in a section of the game you'll spend maybe 3 minutes in, and you'd have to zoom in to see in any sort of clarity.

I'd be pissed too if I finally got my character looking the way I want, especially if I spent money on the appearance, and now it looks ... like that.

I'm torn. On the one hand, immolation death is not funny. Like the Branch Davidians in their compound in Waco. But on the other hand, this smelt like an obvious plant from the moment I caught wind of it. So I'll just leave both jokes here.

So they've found a use for all that gaslight they produce?

Are they going to count this as a job created by a democrat?

I went unemployed for awhile. I had to sell almost everything I owned and sleep on a towel on the floor for awhile. I know how it can be.

I'm just perplexed that someone named ihatewhores would be okay whoring themself out like this, knowing that getting a different job would in fact not make them a whore, even if they made significantly less. You might not be fucking them, but you're sure as heck okay with it.

I took a job at mcdonalds from 2004 to 2008. We all sometimes have to make tough choices. That's where my name is from. Not like you asked, but I figured I'd share some of my background with you, ihatewhores.

But again, this whole conversation is really strange. You're okay with suffering as long as if makes your life better.

I know the whole there really isn't any ethical consumption under capitalism on account of someone is getting a shitty deal no matter what, and it's hard to justify any purchase because of that.

But when you know something is wrong, and you're justifying it with as long as it's not me, and I can make my life easier it's okay ... that's kinda fucked up. That's the crux of my argument. But I'm really gonna bow out here. I don't want to do this no more.

Just maybe hope that one day someone like me is at the other end, and can stop something horrible from happening to you just by speaking up and getting fucked over instead.

How much more money is worth it? Only a few rapes, or are we rationalizing that it doesn't matter, fuck 'em all. They're getting raped anyway, so fuck 'em, I got paid?

Basically, what is the money to rape ratio that is acceptable in this scenario?

...Actually y'know what, I don't want the answer. This isn't a conversation I ever wanted to have. I'm going to bow out here.

nuggetpatrol 5 points ago +6 / -1

No, I really wouldn't. Knowing that my extra pay came from life alteringly horrible things would make me find other employment. Even if it meant some shitty job for shit wages.

Because "Rape is fine so long as I get more money" isn't really an argument worth fighting for.

That's all well and good and all, but hollywood ... have you forgotten? you've been pedo defenders and pedo hiders for decades. It's all out in the open now.

There was a Barbara Walters interview that had Mouth from Goonies, y'know, Corey Feldman, where he was naming names and pouring his heart out. Anyone remember the audacity of Barbara Walters to reply with "You're ruining an industry" It was such a polite way to say "Shut the fuck up and go help shovel some kids onto hollywood like a coal fire, so they can get fucked some more by rich people, so we can still have movies." I lost all respect for her and hollywood that day.

Every time someone was asked, once it was too big to just sweep under the rug, what was their go to? "We all knew, but..."

... But your job was more important than stopping a rape train happening to everyone, at all times? You ignorant self righteous assholes. I am ashamed I ever gave a quarter of an ounce of a shit at anything they ever said.

It's no wonder in roman times actors were given the same amount of respect as courtesans.

I can guarantee 100% they're being paid to care about this. Because they're certainly not acting for free, given their track record of covering for anything and everything, so long as they still get paid.

Besides the fact that we glorify "I'll lie to you convincingly for money" when people act good enough and are given awards for it.

Sorry, I just can't stand this shit no more. No disrespect intended toward the OP.

I think people are saying good things about it, because historically video game adaptations have been completely awful.

So it's merely a "It didn't suck as much as I expected" when they say it's good.

But it's not good. It's just not shitty enough to hate train it.

The power armor looks very plastic. I don't know what can be done about that other than chroming the plastic bits or something, but it'd probably be too shiny for the lighting. They also don't walk right. Which is honestly hard to get done right. And probably from having to walk without much practice in something with all those bits and bobs glued onto a frame they walk around in.

The acting is very one dimensional. Likely intentional so that they can be latched on to by everyone who has a few of the traits so they can self insert, as they do.

The only good part appears to be the Ghoul character played by Walter Goggins ( I wonder if he and David Goggins ever met to see who the better Goggins is... sorry, it's just a dumb name comparison thing.) that I can never remember the name of. Cooper I think? Anyway, they gave him a fairly interesting back story and I think he's probably the only sane person around, given how everyone else is.

They looked at the lore and thought "Nah, we can do better" and just pitched out the vast majority of it and built up whatever they needed with the ashes of what was left. In doing so, they've doomed the show to never move beyond what they're borrowing from, and breaking away from at the same time. It's a bizarre choice. One of the tenets of good writing is to build up, not break down, but I digress. We wouldn't be here bitching if the writing was well thought out and good.

The show is merely okay. It's being canonized by people who bought the franchise, took a big steaming dump on it themselves, and did the same thing these writers are doing. "Yeah, that exists, but it exists this way now, because faulty, badly thought out reason here. We own it now okay? No time to explain how ghouls work when there's super mutants around." Or whatever the fuck Pete Hines said when cornered by someone who knew more than he did and genuinely cared. But I digress ... again.

Maybe I'll save myself from watching the rest of the season. I can put money down on the fact that at least one of the recap youtubers have likely done the legwork for me, and I can just condense watch it that way. So I don't have to deal with the moment to moment boringness that happens in a show like this.

Every time someone praises it, I just care a little less about it honestly. It's fine, it can exist. I don't have to spend any more time on it. It's popular, and people like it, and it is an Amazon product we're talking about, so they'll bait and switch it to ass suck mode in season 2 where the girl can suddenly reprogram turrets and robco robots and shit like that, make her own plasma weapons, etc, without ever having been seen doing any of the work to have that knowledge.

So given the money distribution heavily weighted toward five people, we can honestly say that they did not learn to code.

Okay, that does make more sense.

Although honestly, this movie series died off with the first one, and most of us were just curious about how they would continue the character's story, and how long it'd take the zombies to starve to death in the second one.

To my knowledge they didn't even answer either one of those in a fulfilling way. But it has been a few years since I've seen 28 weeks later, so I could be remembering wrong.

You mean the WEF stooge doesn't like the way things are run, so chooses to fuck it all up in the name of [cause]. I am shocked.

Second installment of the trilogy? So 28 days later wasn't the first and 28 weeks later wasn't it's sequel, making this one the third and final installment?

You know... If you can't even get that info right, why should anyone else care.

Games Workshop is in for a reckoning when they realize that a 3D printer and about 10 pounds of the resin material to make models is cheaper than a full army.

Looks like when they got bought they got it hoisted on them in 2022.

I don't ever remember visiting the boards at all. The guides a few times. But the boards maybe once or twice, and I can't honestly remember if it was helpful.

My advice would be to just copy and paste the guides you want to keep now and keep them locally, before they're deemed unworthy too.

Did anyone have 'Getting mad at AI generated art' on their bingo card?

The account that pic they're poking fun at is from says it was Generated by AI. It's even in the name of the twitter account.

Sure someone had to type in a prompt, but AI still did the work and made it look that way.
