Fuck it, never mind

You can’t think of anything they could do.

That’s different and it’s incredible naive for you to think the only things that could happen are the things you can think of.

Which is why when/if they get to that point, we take what they offer and use that to fight for more.

If they say:

We’ll pay some taxes, and everyone can get healthcare.

As an attempt to appease the masses, I’m saying the sane response is to take their money, get healthcare with it, then immediate go back to demanding more of our shit back from them.

I almost added this to my first comment, and it looks like I should have left it:

We need to be like the unhoused population of South Park when pushing for these thing.

No matter what they agree to give back, accept it, and without blinking or hesitation ask for more.

Does it make sense now?

My point being the “of the Mississippi” in the labels just throws away any plausible deniability they didn’t just grab the standard East/West division…

A standard division that’s outdated at that.

Marie Antoinette thought she was safe too.

They all do.

If they really didn’t, they’d hand back some of the wealth/power to appease us. Which is why when/if they get to that point, we take what they offer and use that to fight for more.

There’s been a lot of shit going on lately

A guy charged the white house with a shotty, another guy drove from East Coast to Vegas to attack their power grid again…

Usually Kash would do a huge press conference for all of these, but they’re happening so fast and there’s so much else going on no one can talk about everything. And by the time they start talking about how bad it is, it’s going to blindsided everyone.

People without shit to lose, tend to act like it.

I mean, it still fucked it up…

Part of Louisiana is east of the Sippi and so is parts of Minnesota.

Technically, parts of Minnesota are north of it, but the least it could have done is use the actual Mississippi or to just not throw that phrase in at all in the labels.

So leave it with the oligarchs who are actively brining trump to make it worse?

What the fuck kind of learned helplessness is this?

Yeah they beat and starve us, but if we stop them from doing it someone might show up and if we let them they’d beat and starve us to!!!

Like, fucking newsflash man:

This is a continual fight, and boomers acting like it wasn’t is why shit is like it is today. No matter what happens this fight never stops

I have similar feelings with people who put more importance on tone policing while fucking fascists are building concentration camps.

But here we are and that’s what you’re doing

So I usually put one last hail mary comment, because you understanding this is more important than how nice you think someone is:

If you think the message would be better received another way, fucking try that

Don’t try and insist that every spreads the message the same way, because that’s a recipe for it not reaching large parts of the population.

But there’s going to be a lot of less than a week old accounts with single digit comments trying to waste people’s time and stop doing what’s effective.

And how do I know which you are?

It’s a month old account.

But the biggest redflag is she’s never worked for a gaming company before, she went from AI exec to Xbox CEO…

She literally has no idea how any of it works

Yep, ran thru a Pam Beasley filter apparently…

In real life we send LHD’s for this and rotate a couple on each coast

LHDs are marine transport ships that can launch helicopters and and hovercraft for landing. Most recently LHD-7 was used to capture Maduro tho.

So no country wants one showing up unsolicited to “help”, it wouldn’t be surprising if they denied docking or even entrance to their sovereign waters.

trump wants it to be seen as aid, but it’s a threat and that’s how it’ll be treated

I didn’t say that

No, that’s how quoting works, you literally said:

Because you can never trust or rely on an ally who’s on your side because you are being nice to them instead of because they have some kind of scruples.

It’s no better than say, sucking up to someone with a peace award in the hopes they don’t start a war.

You said it’s one or the other.

And now you’re saying that people shouldnt have went by the literal words you typed, you’ve retroactively changed what you meant because that rationalize is easier than admitting you were wrong.

I hope you stop imitating our president someday, but I’ll never know. Because you just get belligerent like he does too, and I’m not dealing with that shit.

It’s no better than say, sucking up to someone with a peace award in the hopes they don’t start a war.

Buddy…

If you think the only two options are bing antognistic or “sucking up”…

Well, sounds like you are a recent example of the American education system

It doesn’t matter who has it, it’s the one ring.

It’s sheer existence is too dangerous to be allowed. But everyone focuses on what they could do with the power and think they’ll be able to keep it.

That’s why there’s such pushback against opposition to datacenters, it’s not just the money from the stocks, everyone pictures themselves as the only ones who gets to abuse the tech once it’s built.

Many people think Mexico is the only country that exists,

No, some people that you know think that “many people” believe that…

It doesn’t make it true

1 and 2 are good.

For #3, I had jumped back into cod a couple years ago for a single title. But I quickly learned they’d become notorious for hiding settings and changing where things were after updates.

So as general advice when looking for settings:

Find a recent YouTube video (so it’s the same patch) talking about that setting, watch the video just to see where exactly they go to get to the setting.

Like, there’s no way it’s a setting on everyone else PS5 version and just not yours, it’s hidden in a stupid way that you just haven’t thought of yet, but most people would have tried first so no one mentions in guides.

Once you do that, then you’ll see the black screen, it’s just the GPU changing refresh rates

There’s some sertings

Yeah, it’s just typical capitalism stuff.

People see talk about legit refurbs and then think a dust wipe refurb isnthe same thing and get ripped off.

However, it is is not coming from someone who does this stuff at a professional level (refurbished in other words), I am not sure if I can trust it.

It’s honestly not even worth trying to use the right terminology these days…

Every seller/manufacturer uses slightly different definitions.

So to clarify, what’s good is:

A product that was sent back to manufacturer and “manufacturer refurbished” meaning that common fail points were inspected and repaired even if a failure would be emmenient but it’s still working

Pretty much anything else, would be bad.

An example of what is bad is:

“Amazon/ebay refurbished” where someone may have wiped the dust off and possibly checked to see if it turned on.

Especially for hard drives, the refurbishing is built into the purchase contract of the new drives. And since the purchaser and manufacturer both understand the refresh is proactive and the old drives still have life in them, it knocks off a percentage on the new drives and that’s where we can find deals.

I think I’ve got a 1TB that’s ~20 years old I got that way. It’s still technically in my main PC, but at this point it’s an unimportant archive drive that just doesn’t get read or wrote very often.

I’ve just literally never had a HDD or SD die tho. I don’t know why people act like they’re disposable parts of a PC still.

Yeah, that’s how politicians get the insider tips, it’s bribes to not go after the person who gave them the tip.

If enough of the right people make enough money, then everything about it becomes legal, or at worse a fine that’s less than the profits made.
