Captain Punch

Oh please. Everyone knows that Helen Keller invented disabilities and web browser issues that make media not load correctly in 1880, and that alt text didn't come until a few years later.

A parody of the Brokeback Mountain movie poster featuring Master Chief, Jorge, and a mountain from Halo Reach.

Poster I made for an upcoming multi-stream event (with Twitch drops) hosted by The Forge Temple Discord server taking place Valentine's Day weekend.

I somewhat appreciate that this delineates the group that kept doubling down on them as not being human.

Many of us did vote for her.

Unfortunately, she sucked, so many others, remembering Hillary/Biden and realizing that it would only mean we get another just like her next time, didn't.

I gave her my vote because I realized it was the best decision at the time, but she sure as shit didn't earn it.

I say "doesn't make sense" in the direction of "I can see what a right winger would be trying to say by directing that at Crockett, even though it's not valid, but I struggle to see how that could be applied to the white lady in the same way, because she doesn't come from a minority group".

Neither because DEI doesn't make sense when applied to Leavitt.

The word you are looking for is "crony hire".

Misusing DEI and trying to turn it back on the right is just playing into their hands by further stripping meaning from it.

"our band is from outer space" no u aren't you're from iowa

Couple that with a wifi mnk or keyboard/trackpad combo and you're set to just dock and control from the semi-arbitrarily far away couch, even with an android phone. Samsung's Dex environment is particularly nice for this.

Ah. Yeah. Never smart TV, or at least, always skip the built ins and treat as a basic display.

USB laptop docks are great because you can just set them up as part of your home entertainment system and plug in any compatible laptop or phone and push any attached media to screens and speakers.

"The fuck is an ad?" he said, in the ancient language of [ublock origin on Firefox, desktop site, every time].

Oh shit. Sorry. I thought it was a bed.

*stares at "bed"*

Now how in the fuckheck do I get this back out of my room...

I'm sure you'd rather have an issue with him than with me.

I mean, I'm nice, but... I don't *have* to be.

Those are all fish and so are we. :)

(best way to frustrate someone mixing things up and generalizing is to be even more general until they finally get it).

Apple only wins for some people because:

A) people outright lie about android

B) people can buy cheap cheap Android devices, have a bad time, and think they are all like that

C) people are locked into Apples ecosystem and their investments in it cause Stockholm Syndrome

As in, if they just use the phone as is when they get it, install some apps, but don't get into file system management, etc, it is just as, if not more, streamlined of an experience as iOS, and is *more* stable.

Add to that the option to reach for more if it's needed or wanted, and it's no contest.

I can't speak for other vendors, but having switched to Samsung back with the Note 2 release and now having a Z Fold 6, and as someone who has worked a tech helpdesk for years...

Anyone who went Samsung could easily have as simple of an experience, they just have to not opt in to the nitty gritty.

Definitely understand, and same. I'm not happy that I had enough time to notice in the time it took me to process a block and report.

Not to mention, and I'm saying this as a straight guy, these dudes have the stupidest looking dicks.

Would be way healthier to just be a good person without pretending to hear voices or needing some external motivator, like only doing so to escape supposed eternal torment.

The rest of us already know and just don't care. Religion is 95% mental illness and Christianity is a poorly written set of choose-your-own-adventure fanfics. The foundations of the religion aren't even self consistent. It is hard to take adherents of any kind seriously.

Alright, well, video games.

With 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico on the way, I can see a sharp downtick in the number of disc-based games that get released physically in the US, as much of that production infrastructure is in Mexico.

If they do get made, I expect higher prices both phys & dig.

I'd hazard Oldboy would be a contender.

Way to miss the point yet again.

Any data collection on the cables that occurs in social media is bad. I don't give a shit who is doing it.

TikTok is a highly effective *influence* machine that has been fine tuned to *automatically* feed people content.

This literally just proves his final point.

It has become foundational for some people, which has set them up to defend it and look past anything problematic that came from it.

I've seen people defending silicon valley data collection practices as arguments in support of TikTok. Shit's wild.

*slaps knee*
Ha

I like

Turning off comments should also disable new likes and reposts.

*untagged

Because of course no one would think the funny name is a reason to disrespect consent and just post even more untagged nudes.

(I wish everyone who posts in tagged NSFW dick-splinters, even if they have to grow one to get them)

average Bluesky poster:
*makes no attempt to read the room*
*doesn't provide any context*
*assumes the whole world has the same information as them*
"People keep misunderstanding my jokes :("

me:
Make. Better. Jokes.

Or, like, maybe stop trying, if you don't understand that they might not land.

They have the money. The issue is more on the directives they receive on how to spend it, how they are managed, how they are trained, and how lazy the average cop is when not doing the 'fun' parts of the job.
