Shhh, you’re interrupting the circle-jerk!

everything runs on Valve time.

Shit, I guess we were lucky to get SteamOS 3 then!

Then it’s a shit hobby, or the wrong time in your life for that particular hobby. Hobbies aren’t meant to be financially sound investments, and the best hobbies aren’t cheap.

Best idea I’ve seen so far is to comply - and let the nsfw posts just keep on coming. Show the advertisers how their ads are being shown next to nsfw, and see how that goes.

So piracy is a civil crime, not a criminal one? Awww 😩 All this time I thought I was cooler than I really am. (Sad arrr noises)

Statute of limitations??

“The peasants are revolting!”

My first thought: thank God it wasn’t an American tourist this time.

Would compressed air or a dust buster be better for this? Or both?

They’re expecting lawsuits to fly, and don’t want to touch it with a 10-foot pole lest they get dragged in.

I wonder if you could guesstimate based on ad-buys - cost, interactions, etc.

I’ve been getting a ton of cardboard spools, but I prefer plastic - cardboard is incompatible with my Bambu AMS. To resolve I have to wrap the edge with electric tape, use a printed adapter, or in the worst cases (the cardboard is damaged) respool.

Diablo 4 - hell no.

Mortal Kombat - HELL NO

Leisure Suit Larry - hell yes 😈

Everything is edible once!

Yes and no - if the university can no longer fill its ranks because their costs are too high, they will have to reduce costs. The reason it’s so expensive right now is because they have a captive audience that can’t walk away.

Edit:

I think part of the mindset that has to change is this idea that college is worth it no matter the cost.

Say it louder for the people in the back!

Imagine thinking that the only way your party can win is to make cheating trivial, and that common sense voting requirements (prior registration, day-of in-person only, ID required, indelible ink on finger) are racist.

Rather than interfering further with a private market, they could simply cap the amount of federal loans a student can receive.

Absolutely. The problem started when they made student loans unable to be discharged through bankruptcy. This allowed colleges to charge whatever they wanted, because loans would rise to match, and the borrowers were locked in with no way to walk away. And look where we are now.

You used to be able to pay for college with a summer job cutting lawns - not anymore!

The only way to win in this environment is to be frugal AF - don’t jump straight into a four-year university, get your two-year out of the way at a community college, then transfer over for your major. Live at home until you graduate. Get your degree in business, which is applicable anywhere. Don’t take any loans, but do well in high school and apply for grants instead.

The wrong answer is to take out hundreds of thousands in loans with no intention of repayment, vote-blue-no-matter-who because they’ve promised you the moon and the stars, and dismiss anybody telling you “uh, that’s not the best idea” as an alt-right nazi bigot.

if the government hadn’t handed out billions to cronies and private businesses

Totally separate issue that’s its own pile of bullshit. I think we can both agree that the government is corrupt AF.

Or maybe we just don’t agree that taxpayers should bail out the poor financial decisions.
