Could? Absolutely?

Will? …

JJK is an anime, they have names for their special moves that usually have the form “Domain Expansion: {adjective} {noun}”

“sex knob: giant hammer” sounds like a JJK technique

You’ll have to speak up, I can’t hear you over this rotund tits

First I can’t own the libs, now I can’t own a gun. The commies have taken everything from me

It’s the argument style, and the “it’s not X, it’s Y” conclusion. Very common in LLM speak. Doesn’t mean it is, though

What kind of emergency is more important than the lives of people that might be killed by a drunk driver’s mistake? And how is it impossible to find an alternative solution?

Leads to my favorite punchline/rebuttal combo “do you need the robot to fuck your wife for you too?”

It’s such a different beast being a kid now, if your journal was misplaced it would probably get plastered all over social media and laughed at for being cringe. Obv kids have always had the capacity to be cruel, but the instant access and wide reach has such a punishing effect on outspoken individuality

My new LG didn’t require it, but the settings menu and ‘home’ screen nag about lack of connectivity.

“Why did you buy a smart TV if you didn’t want the smart features” brother, it was the best tv in that price range and few true dumb ones exist in that range. IMO the smart features should be considered optional but I guess these companies don’t agree

Windows is only “easy” because you’re used to it. Coming to it fresh, windows 11 is such a shit show sometimes.

Minecraft works on Linux,

FFXIV works on Linux (it works on the steam deck which runs Linux, so it will work natively just like in windows),

Steam itself works on Linux just the same.

They’ve sold their XPS line with Ubuntu as an option for like 10 years. Maybe they stopped for some time, but it’s not new

Is the rest of the world as lobby -able as the US? Guess we’ll find out
