That’s pretty much exactly what he claimed.

It didn’t happen to him though, so clearly it never happened. He also doesn’t believe in shark attacks, or the holocaust.

Yes, but he’s acting as a rallying flag to drive the alt-right together, normalizing their behavior and bringing it out into the open instead of dog whistling.

Without him, they have no lightning rod to travel towards as a coordinated group.

I wouldn’t count Russian Bots as people, but yeah, there’s a lot of noise here trying to make sure trump wins.

He clearly was typing on his phone and his message was obvious.

It’s stock, not cash

Because Netflix didn’t dismantle the capitalism machine.

Capitalism can never fully disrupt itself. It’s always cyclical. If bundling eventually made it more money, then it will eventually return. If the response to that is to innovate something that gets around that form of bundling, then that “disrupts” the market, in the short term, only for the market to settle back to bundles.

Because as long as the idea makes more money in a capitalistic society, it will never die.

Yeah, there’s ways around this. It’s just that most of the ublock origin blocking specific code, isn’t reusable here and the team will need to start over to deal with this new tactic/approach from Google.

The cure might eventually be worse than the disease though. If not now, or tomorrow, then the next day.

Traitors do be tratoring on the cheap.

What he says, and what he does…

Then they liquidate that one too. And so on, until the debt is paid or he dies.

Or when the blue is going after one of their “own”, then the blue is the one corrupt and the system is unfair. (see: Jan 6th)

Man, you’re not even hiding the fact that you’re a Russian troll, or at least a very, very bad actor. Just no tact huh?

Well, yes. And explain to me again how democrats are involved in the DOJ and Justice system pursuing crimes, crimes that trump and his ilk have absolutely committed? Crimes that are mob-like, for a convicted felon, and twice impeached embarrassment of a fucking president.

Even though Democrats aren’t even involved here, I’d want them to be. I want everyone to be. Fuck trump, fuck that lying piece of shit ex-president crime lord. What a fucking scumbag.

He’s the god damn most miserable fucking train you could have ever fucking attached your worthless goddamn life to you absolute piece of shit fascist supporting Russian loving dickhead.

He’s being condescending because he believes as a developer nothing is actually fully secure. If I spend 100 hours building and securing something, that’s not going to stack up very favorably vs the 1,000’s or even 1,000,000’s of hours attackers and communities can spend trying to break my security layers.

Basically, he’s a dick in how he answered the question, but the truth every software engineer learns, is that there is no fully secure system. There’s always an angle/attack vector you didn’t think of and secure.

haha, right? What an odd place to catch up with an old acquaintance :)

If you ever want to go down the full stack or front end dev path, just drop me a line. I’ll give you my personal work email in a DM and you can reach out for answers to questions/guidance. Been in that industry for almost 27 years now, and picked up a thing or two that might help. ;)

One of the games I’ve helped with is more of a tool, and it’s for D&D GM’s believe it or not ;) I don’t do tabletop as much as I used to anymore, but I got into this project because my regular group wanted to try and play remotely and they found this in pre-release and I tracked the owner down and offered to help work on the features my gaming group needed, pro-bono.

He took me up on my offer, and I’ve been helping out here and there ever since :)

It’s called “Game Master Engine” (GME), feel free to check it out, there’s a free version of it up, and if you want to GM/DM a game and invite others into it, then you can pay the GM license for it (absolutely no obligation to purchase this btw, I don’t get any of the proceeds, only buy if you want/enjoy it), and there’s a couple DLC modules for it now.

The owner (Dan the DM) is a super cool and chill dude. He’s done the vast majority of work on this thing, I just jump in if there’s something difficult they’re trying to do and need help with, and also provide technical guidance and direction on the project whenever he needs as his background isn’t really on the engineering side.

Next year, planning to go in with Dan and work on some actual games (instead of tools). I’ve done a few F2P games released in the wild years ago in Unity 3D, but never a concerted effort with an established shop to do a game from scratch. :) I’m looking forward to it, and working with Dan in a more side-by-side capacity.

Ah, glad to hear it! 40s are the new 30’s or something they tell me. :)

Same here for the most part. Almost in my mid 40’s, got married to a player named Farah/Firah (we were dating before we started playing DAoC though to be fair), sadly things didn’t work out, got divorced in my 30’s, then remarried recently in my 40’s and we’re just enjoying life. No kids, 1 dog, 2 cats sort of thing.

I’ve been a software engineer most of my life, and now I manage/run a few teams of them at a large enterprise. Looking to get out of B2B here soon and take a stab at my lifelong dream: Making video games. Hoping to do that next year. I’ve been working with an Indie shop on my own time for the last couple years and we’ve released a couple games on Steam/Epic, so going to take a stab at doing that for realsies. ;)

In terms of gaming, lol, yeah man. I’m losing to one kid after the other nowdays haha. I got into WoW for a bit, like everyone, but ultimately I just play casual games like Overwatch(2) and Genshin Impact (Would not recommend that one, hah, I play for family mostly). Just trying to get back into the swing of things and find that enjoyment of gaming I feel like I lost so long ago.

Dude, I think I remember your Keen NS Cyno on Nimue. :) Crazy how small of a community this stuff is sometimes. :) Awesome to see some familiar faces on Lemmy.

How’ve things been since then? I’m sure you’ve lived a similar amount of lifetimes hah. Who knew we’d all end up getting old, just like everyone else before us? :)

Haha, holy crap, yeah, that was me a very, very long time ago. Several lifetimes ago it feels. 🙂 I still have a few long term friends from xdo, but I don’t really game with them much anymore.

What’d you play? 🙂

Man, I’m so sick of you fucking crazies screwing with women’s rights because you think you know more than medical doctors.

You understand your crowd didn’t give a rat’s fucking ass about abortion until the evangelical leaders decided to make it a national outrage issue in the 80s, right?

All you are is a poor manipulated tool of Christo fascist agenda set decades ago.

And you’re so bought in on this at this point that you can’t back out, because it would make you look weak, or lose your friends, or whatever. But that’s on your for not doing the right thing here and supporting women’s rights, and supporting the mountain of medical evidence that backs pro choice.

Instead, you just repeat the same, tired horseshit your heard at your last church sermon or from fox News.

So, if you’re not interested in helping women regain rights they had stolen from them, yet again, then you can fuck right off.

You’re both delusional, and an idiot.
