If there’s one thing dumber than believing God created you to be special it’s believing you’re naturally so special that you can build God.
It’s top tier hubris.

Yes, I can hear you, Clem Fandango!

I just thought it was interesting that someone could not know what a tracker was and also be, you know, using one.


99% of my stuff from 1337x
what trackers even are



Meanwhile, me: Pirating since before Napster, has automated nothing at all, likes browsing private torrent trackers websites because it sort of makes me feel like I’m in Blockbuster video in the 90s walking the aisles and checking what’s available.


There’s still a little time to get in at reasonable prices before they truly blow up and go insane. I’ve definitely started seeing increases such as a WD 8TB that went from $204.99 to $239.99 overnight after a short period of being out of stock. Depending on brand and size, some are still available at retail prices, but they’re quickly running out.
I like the way it goes cronch in my mouth and makes it bleed.


Don’t worry, Debord didn’t think he was either! He actually thought that his Situationist writing would be forgotten and that he would be remembered for his (ironically now forgotten) board game Kriegspiel. Instead Society of the Spectacle is now considered an important piece of French culture and history.


Genuinely, no one even has to explain why she’s famous.
She’s also famous for all the right reasons, putting herself in harms way for the right causes. Not for fame nor fortune but the cold hard work of helping others and trying to effect change.
Which in turn makes her infamous to the right wing culture warriors as well which is a real chef’s kiss to why she’s probably the best answer here.


Always has been.
The Situationists even created new words to describe how radical ideas are co-opted by the mainstream in ways that reduce or outright removing radicalism from the ideas, making them more palatable for mainstream society. They called it recuperation. They also argued we needed to be doing the opposite, and taking the banal and making it radical, which they called détournement. This was often exemplified in the 80s/90s/early 2000s through subversion and revision of corporate advertising, often called “culture jamming.”


Also when renewing It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, he had Mac and Charlie blow him. Class act.


Tom Waits.
Perhaps a less well-known name but he’s been around forever in both film and music. He has famously never allowed any of his music to be used for marketing, ever. He also successfully sued a company that couldn’t license his music and instead produced a sound-alike artist mimicking one of his songs for a commercial. He seems generally good natured, and he has spent an intense amount of energy making sure his family’s privacy is respected. He’s even been arrested for fighting plainclothes cops who were harassing someone, and he sued the city of LA in civil court for false arrest and won.
Sure, his persona is more persona than reality, but it’s a persona that has served him well as an outsider that reveled in being an outsider. He speaks for us dregs of society who spend all night drinking coffee in all night diners, writing poetry and smoking cigarettes. The godfather of alternative rock, who holds a place for many in the younger generations that was held by Bob Dylan for the elder generations.


Jeeves apparently was classier than that all the way until the end.
Story Time:
When I was a sheltered child I went to a private Christian school that I hated from kindergarten to sixth grade. In the second week of the sixth grade I was so tired of it that I just walked home during lunch instead of going inside when the bell rang. It took me hours to walk home, and in the meantime, the school had not informed my mother I was missing and instead the principle was looking for me at places like McDonald’s because he figured that’s where a kid would go. When I got home I told my mom why I left and then about thirty minutes later the school called and she read them the riot act about not informing her that her son was missing and that I had come straight home because the school was the problem and their hesitance to tell her that her son was missing was further evidence that the school was the problem. I was in public school the following week, where I got made fun of on my first day because I didn’t know what a “boner” was (fuck you Josh).
Anyway, yeah, you can totally just leave shit. It actually works.
So the next time your coach tells you to “walk it off” just keep walking.


Also Xbox controllers have garbage ass build quality. Valve seems to make pretty solid hardware. The only one I see as comparable is the PS5 dualsense controller, but it’s still missing some things like the extra buttons. It has a touchpad, but just one, and it’s not optimally placed, imho.


Wouldn’t it be “Fully Qualified Domain Username”? FQDU instead of FQDN


Cory Doctorow still uses pgp if you email him, I think his key is on his website, IIRC


I always recognize my admin. *waves

Inaccurate poster, I see four Arwings and everyone knows Crazy Frog’s is invisible. Should be one less Arwing shown.
How do you call yourself a StarFox fan? Have you even read the StarFox abortion comic? Travesty.
