As was already linked above, yes.

Amazing series if anyone hasn’t seen it.

Damn, that’s my go-to and I didn’t even recognize it’s logo. Shows up as a Y on the site for me.

RIOT and LoL is one of the worst I’ve seen for this, which is ironically probably contributing to the problem as it chases decent people away while toxic PoS feel right at home since it’s tailored for them specifically. You can get an excessively toxic player on your team who is actively working as hard as he can to make you lose, but he knows how to game the system and avoid their filters, but if you tell him to fuck off now you’re stuck in their secret “toxic queue” and you just get worse and worse players on your team.

Especially when they get it wrong constantly.

Reminds me of the “Island Sanctuary” feature added to Final Fantasy XIV, where you were promised your very own tropical paradise to visit and decorate. Ended up being little else to do there other than build and manage factories.

The thing is that words can have a very broad range of meaning depending on who uses them and how (among many other factors), but you can’t accurately code all of that into a form that computers can understand. Even ignoring bad actors it makes certain things very difficult, like if you ever want to search for something that just happens to share words with something completely different which is very popular.

Yea man, that’s totally what I said. @@

Like I said, it’s probably related to how I look and present myself. I guess I fit the bill for what people with such fantasies find to be sexy.

You’ll have to forgive people for being cautious when presented with an ethnic supremacist state actively working towards global domination.

No shit. Role playing rape fantasies.

Reproduction isn’t a luxury item. It’s a survival need. The only reason that it’s viewed as such in western society is because our economic system is all kinds of screwed up. People have been brainwashed to consider survival, as a society, in terms of our economic systems rather than in terms of the actual people.

It was a real eye opener to me when I started dating to find out just how many women would literally ask to be raped. I probably attract that type more than average because of my physical stature, but still it really creeped me out. Never took anyone up on it.

It’s like you didn’t even read the series.

Legit answer: It’s the best selling on-going comic of all time, and for good reason. The author has an incredible knack for writing, comedy and world building. At first it all seems quite basic and irreverent, but as the story progresses it not only becomes more involved and compelling, but you start to understand that more and more of what happened before is actually deeply significant to the overall story. I think it’s up somewhere around 1000 named characters in the series now, and the majority of them are actually very well written no matter how short their appearance is, with many continuing to have a place in the grand narrative.

Yea, seems like a fun and quirky feature, but unfortunately I don’t think there’s anything big tech companies can do at this point to turn things around with public opinion given how utterly egregious their other sins have been (and continue to be).

They’re not bugs, they’re features.

It’s pretty easy to find. Has the exact same name. There are several versions right on Youtube.

It’s obviously not a comprehensive guide on how to cheat the system. I’m making the point that computers will never be secure under the current paradigm when there are massive and powerful actors with vastly greater resources than the average person. I strongly suspect that an org like the DoD (which had exclusive access to integrated circuit technology for three years before anyone else) could probably capture/spoof virtually the entire network if they wanted too.

That’s straight up normie territory
