Fake: X4 is not a videogame, it’s rehab for crazy german accountants

Screw you, I like my singleplayer-spreadsheets-in-space as a nice distraction from playing MMO-spreadsheets-in-space. Also, I’m Dutch, you ass.

“Fraud” is a legal definition.

“Defraud” is basically defined as “doing fraud” but from context it just means “swindling someone in fully legal ways”

I think it will be 30 hours of Wing Commander The Movie level cut scenes

It never existed!

Fake: anon has a female friend

Gay: anon isn’t interested in her

We have to drink our pee

Technically true. In fact, if you feel like it, you can track the current level of unrecycled piss on the ISS live on https://bsky.app/profile/iss-piss-tracker.bsky.social

I didn’t mean “This is like slavery”, I meant that literally the US Constitution specifically allows for prisoners to be used as slaves.

Slavery never left the US. Slavery is fully constitutional in the USA.

Ah, he was in the Federalist Society, that explain a LOT

Anon conflates the desire for a more involved and expanded social life with just having sex, thereby perfectly explaining their lack of a more involved and expanded social life.

He compared it to Human Revolution. When is the last time you heard anyone compare anything to Human Revolution???

It was also really weird that he compared Cyberpunk, as a setting, to a whole bunch of other media that are all older than Cyberpunk. Only Blade Runner predates it.

And shave your armpits. The hair is basically a bacterial incubator. You don’t need to make it razor-commercial-smooth, just run a trimmer over it occasionally.

But has musk ever been wrong?

Apart from hyperloop, solar rooftops, Tesla semi, passenger rockets, car tunnels under cities, robotaxi, flying Tesla’s, humans on mars in 2022, self driving Tesla’s making the owner money, and of course cybertruck.

I supervise soil remediation, which occasionally involves working in a liquid-proof coverall, with a hood, thick rubber gloves and a full face mask. I’ve had to literally pour a stream of sweat out of my boots. And I’m just standing there watching and writing, not actually doing physical labour.

And I still have to remind people to shower when changing. Even if you don’t care about killing yourself, I mean, come on.

The ads said they could tell if you were watching telly. I suspect they detected aerials, but that was in the days of Cathode Ray Tubes, and maybe you can detect them being on, I don’t know.

You can absolutely detect a CRT from outside. A CRT is basically a small particle accelerator with a magnetic deflection system, inside an unshielded plastic (or wooden, if you go back far enough) box. Of course, it will need to be turned on, just the presence of a TV doesn’t show up. It’s probably a fair bit harder to actually detect which house the signal comes from, but you can solve that with a big enough directional antenna. With analog TV, you might even be able to detect which channel they’re watching, based on the exact frequency, which makes it easy to tell a TV from a computer monitor too.

Basically, if you’re converting an analogue radio signal into a picture, you’re using that frequency. And any leaks would be detectable by another antenna. From that point, it’s “only” a matter a building the right antenna, aiming it correctly and filtering out the stuff that comes from other directions.

Spotting a flatscreen/LCD/TFT or really, any non-analog TV is probably a LOT harder, and distinguishing between a TV recieving a signal and computer monitor seems (to my lay skills) pretty much impossible.

It’s “we have StarCraft at home”. They did a mediocre copy of all the surface visible features, and that’s about it.

Ah, the “we have StarCraft at home” RTS

They’re people who have no idea what an emotional attachment is, they’ve never had one. To them, women are for sex, decoration and menial labour.

Era One (very recently into early acces) feels a LOT like homeworld 2 used to. But the “build your big ships from blocks” is definitely something you need to get used to, and need to like.

And it’s from the Homeworld Complex people, who do not exactly have the best trackrecord in developing.

The point is, if you’re in the woods with a bear, you’re probably never going to see it. The bear will actively leave you be. The human… You don’t know. They could be actively seeking you out for the sole purpose of hurting you for fun.
