The problem with that is it assumes every idea or opinion is of equal value and that every idea or opinion deserves equal time.

They just don’t. I don’t need give you a platform, weigh the pros and cons, and listen to you extol the virtues of you shitting in my soup. It is not on equal footing to the idea of not shitting in my soup.

Likewise, I don’t need to listen to the pros and cons of a flavor of linux backed by technocrats in bed with a body politic that would cause any founding father to eat his own beard in rage.

I love my job, even when I have to deal with nonsense like that and I’m compensated very well to be on call 24/7.

It can but I’m not looking to make things even more complicated. We have enough unexplained non-sense in the project as is, having to link it correctly is just endless pain that I don’t want to deal with.

I’ve completely banned any code that can’t be explained. I’ve had my CTO send me code at 3 AM to implement and when I ask him what I’m looking at he just says it doesn’t need review, just push it.

Uhh, no sir, I’m not doing shit because you’ve handed me GCC and we’re MSVC.

After I bitched endlessly to the CEO about that he said I have final say on what goes into the project.

You just gotta stop giving a damn what dipshits think.

Post your initial message so that some passerby might glean some insight and then move on.

The opinions of people whom I will never ever see nor interact with ever again means less than nothing. They can think I’m the biggest fucking idiot in the world, doesn’t matter to me, I’ll sleep just fine.

Me whenever I see pizzacake posted.

Informed consent does not exist in the animal world and I’m very saddened that that’s a sentence I had to type.

You cannot apply human standards to animals, they do not understand contract law…again, a sentence I’m just very sad I had to type because they didn’t understand that.

Tech companies cozying up with the government?

Oh boy it must be a day ending in y.

Seriously, this has been happening forever. Hell, when Snowden leaked Bush/Obama’s prism program, the response was a collective yawn.

And who is the arbiter of unreasonable? Sony.

It’s their policy, they get to determine what is unreasonable, not some independent neutral third party.

“I only work at evil corporation, I pull the levers doing the day to day evil stuff, but you gotta understand, I’m a good guy, being evil is just my paycheck.”

This is so easily gamed. Make social media accounts of people you don’t like, be extremely toxic towards Sony on them.

Watch that person get their accounts nuked from orbit.

Do that until someone sues Sony.

This is the sort of bullshit that companies intentionally put out to get back good PR. “It wasn’t us, it was the shadowy execs!”

It’s PR 101, blame nameless people that may or may not exist and you get the good will back on your side as the hatred is focused on people that either don’t care or don’t exist.

Stretch and exercise.

It’s going to determine how long you live 99% of the time. Yes there are those rare people that can smoke 20 packs a day and live to 110, that’s not you.

If you don’t start stretching and exercising now, you’re not going to see past 60 and your life from 40+ is going to be nothing but pain, doctors visits and expensive medicine until eventually you die.

So just go do 10 minutes stretching and 20 minutes of exercise.

I mean, actively silencing people because they can’t afford a lawyer to defend themselves is pretty much all you need to be a piece of shit. Parody has repeatedly been upheld as fair use, however you still have to appear and defend yourself and that takes time and money, more than most people have. So in effect C&D letters become one sided sledgehammers when used against average people.

To be fair, she’s heavily protected, to the point where criticism will get you banned and she throws around cease and desist letters to anyone parodying her work.

She has more than earned the scorn she gets, she just also happens to be a woman on the internet and that comes with sexism by default.

You do realize that license plates are government issued plates attached to your identity and that they keep lists of those plates…right?

Because it would be incredibly silly if you thought otherwise.

Just because it’s super important.

DO NOT TALK ABOUT CRIMES YOU COMMIT OR POST THEM ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

There are two types of criminals, those that keep their mouth shut and those getting arrested.

If you somehow get approached by police, DO NOT SPEAK TO THEM AT ALL. Explicitly state that you want a lawyer to represent you and that you will not be speaking or answering any questions. The only questions you have to legally answer (in most jurisdictions) is to identify yourself. Once you have done that, ask for a lawyer and SHUT THE FUCK UP.

There’s a time and place to talk and it’s with your lawyer present.

There has yet to be a single group that has not been lampooned by SP. You take umbrage with it because it’s finally targeted a group you care about.

Hell, you can be trans in the South Park game and the entire community rallies around to support you.

Just because you are not rah-rah-rah cheered 24/7 by literally everyone and everything does not mean something is transphobic. It’s was just your turn on the mocking wheel, which is good, it means you’re being treated just like everyone else. Which is the entire fucking point, that you’re no different from any other human.

Once I got my MSI Claw I’ve pretty much stopped using anything else for emulation. It plays everything up to Switch games easily. The Vita and the PSP were massive until that point though.

I remember jailbreaking my psp and throwing on a cfw, used it to play SNES and GBA roms, it was fucking awesome.
