  • “President Xi was willing to do the railroad things—that’s magnets,” he said. “Now, nobody knows what a magnet is. If you don’t have a magnet, you don’t have a car. You don’t make a computer, you don’t make, er, televisions and radios and all the other things—you don’t make anything."

    That’s exactly what it is. Could’ve been stated a little more clearly but this is a completely coherent statement. The man does a dozen deplorable things a day, are we really that starved for headlines that this is what we’re reporting on?

    Almost convinced that his administration is paying for these articles so people will look at them and complaints about the Epstein files as equally valid.




  • You are the superuser, telling the computer to do the restricted action in a privileged state. For example maybe there’s a read-only file you want to delete; is you just type rm <directory> it would tell you access denied, if you use sudo rm <directory> you get what you want.

    So in your username, it really just depends on if whoever is reading it thinks you’re the user, or the computer. I personally didn’t read it from any particular perspective, I just thought it was referencing the joke command with no target in particular.







  • First game that came to mind was RD2. I remember a mission at the beginning, where you’re meant to clear out some Plinkertons from a house, and I remember one of the camp NPCs asking you to look around for supplies (or maybe something specific).

    As soon as you’re able to leave the area, Dutch starts screaming at you to hurry tf up. A friend and I will occasionally quote him when we’re being jokingly impatient with one another: “C’MON ARTHUR, QUIT HORSIN’ AROUN’! WE AIN’T GAHT ALL DAAAY!”
