Misspelled “kidnapped and forced to fight”.

I was guilty of that very thing once. During my first programming class back in college, I wrote an Asteroids clone as a project. My professor kept sending it back telling me to fix it. I really racked my brain trying to figure out what he was sending back to me (he wouldn’t tell me, I was supposed to find and correct the error). The game ran just fine. Finally a gave up and asked him to tell me the answer of what my code was doing wrong. He showed me that I had one line of code that was basically making a new instance of the entire game for every screen refresh. (I wrote it in Java, so Java was just correcting it for me in real time.)

It’s funny to me to see people mythologize how perfect video games were before they could be remotely updated.

Sure, game developers rely on fix-it-later updates much more than they should today, but games had bugs back then too.

That… Is some fucked up shit.

NATO is one of those instances where I generally agree with Trump on the issue at hand, and then strongly disagree with him on the solutions to the issue.

Like going back to his first administration, I actually agreed with Trump that NATO is a bad deal for America, and also even a bad deal for the other NATO nations. But the solution back then should have been a slow 10-15 year dissolution of NATO. Give Europe time to reorganize themselves, and then end the cold war era alliance. If we has started that process in 2016, Europe would be ten years further along in their own self reliance.

(Where Trump got everything wrong was that instead of actually developing a realistic plan for the dissolution of NATO, he just used the threat of America immediately pulling out to extort our friends.)

Of course we were joking. I kind of thought that would be obvious.

You are right. I should just deal with it.

Europe would be better off just developing their own weapons systems rather than trying to hack a 35.

“Yes, HR, I need to file a complaint. I’m told by all the women here that I’m supposed to be making more than them but that doesn’t actually seem to be the case. Will you please look into addressing that discrepancy?”

Any computer can be jailbroken if you have complete access to it.

The question is more, “do you really want to fly a hacked jet”?

“Men aren’t relevant”.

@whaleross@lemmy.world is right. It is the ultimate acceptance.

Welcome to the club, boys. Now you are on your own. Enjoy the privileged life!

Trans men are men.

So they can just get over it.

I’m just talking about a human capability standpoint. Maybe over time a person just develops the stamina to do it, but I’m pretty wiped after a solid 9-hour day. Honestly, my productivity collapses after about 5 hours of solid focused work.

I honestly can’t imagine how someone could work 9-9-6.

That blows my mind.

Blame the victim.

Food storage is like the whole point of agriculture.

Hell with that.

Hold the Emperor responsible. He should have invested in the necessary institutions during the fat times to prepare downturns.

Damn straight he lost the Mandate of Heaven and the people should hold him appropriately accountable.

Of course parents also have a responsibly to keep their children safe. But it can’t ONLY be on the parents. The platforms need accountability too.

Do I admit that I came here to shill for child safety policies?

Guilty as charged.

I don’t care.

If I can get some people on this site to start thinking about child safety in new ways that will be a win for me today.
