If your money-haemorrhaging business model depends on the gullibility of absolute fucking morons, maybe do something else?

This is like when ad companies started talking about "personalised ads" as though that was a thing we wanted and which they begrudgingly gave to us.

If AI companies took all the RAM and GPUs they've hoarded and instead just sold them at 50% of their usual value directly to gamers and hardware builders, they'd make way more money than whatever the fuck they're doing now, and wouldn't be baking the planet in the process.

Might have slipped and fell in, banging his head on the way, leaving him unconscious under the water. Might have had a heart attack and toppled in. Might have had an aneurysm and toppled in. Lots of ways this could be innocent. The media (the responsible media, at least) can't start speculating on why a fresh corpse ended up that way unless the cops or medical examiner says something they can include in their reporting. The family of the deceased doesn't need to be reading Facebook conspiracism about their loved one from a legitimate media outlet. Facebook is bad enough already on its own. Not only that, but it can be dangerous to speculate that someone was murdered because it necessarily means someone is a murderer, and now we've got a witch hunt on our hands. And because it came from the media and not the cops, there's now fantasies of a cover-up fuelling the anger. Locals who knew the deceased might have ideas about the sorts of characters in their street who are capable of murder (or they'll just zone in on immigrants), and rumours and gossip spirals into god knows what. Unlikely, but it does happen enough to make it worth avoiding.

Best to just state the facts as plainly as possible and only bring in further details if they're confirmed by good sources. This is a good thing, it's not the media mollycoddling their readers. They can't call it murder off their own hunches, even if the deceased has a knife in his back. Until the cops or coroner says otherwise, they just report the death as-is.

Replaying Witcher 3. The news of the upcoming DLC made me wanna check it out again, even though the DLC is at least a year away. I hadn't played it since before the "Next Gen" upgrade, so was curious to see how that looked too.

The game holds up, and the graphics for the landscapes and buildings is still top tier. The only thing showing its age is the faces of the characters, mainly the human ones. But human faces are always a challenge, no matter the budget!

I'm so autistic that the idea of mixing any kind of food with bodily greaseholes is beyond horrendous to me, even if it's something other than stinking cheese. Like, I’ll happily chomp on whatever bodypart you want me to, but if you first drizzle delicious syrup on it, forget it. Food and sexjuices are non-overlapping magesteria.

In this case, "sucking dick" is a euphemism for "having your ass handed to you constantly and easily". Kinda like how "I fucked the dog" means "I messed that up badly" and not "I literally fucked a dog".

I'm not on the list, but I happened to scroll randomly onto this fella when checking:

A shibboleth, whereby whoever uses the term unironically is saving you hours of interpersonal inquiry, with the term acting as an archive that instantly uncompresses like a zip bomb, filling in every blank you have about the person on every conceivable topic. Their stance on climate change, LGBTQA+ people, the Civil Rights Act, the JFK assassination, women in STEM, vaccines, science, intellectuals and experts, DEI, the history of slavery and colonialism, Israel/Palestine, the green M&M, brown people playing cartoon characters in live action remakes, you name it and you'll have a file in your now-bloated mental hard drive that pertains to it. It's saved normal people decades of pointless droning conversation and lets us get right back to whatever we were doing when the imbecilic cunt deigned to interrupt us with his drooling conspiracism.

I think the environmental knock-on effect of wiping out all gorillas might cause more than one human to die in the future, directly or indirectly.

Also, gorilla dicks are small and they cum pretty much instantly, so you could easily get through all gorillas on Earth in an afternoon. Matt Walsh might get it done in 20 minutes, what with his extensive experience of sucking huge amounts of dick on Twitter.

The internet is changing again, so we’re here as an independent voice for our users and the open internet.

Just what the fuck does this even mean? X is worse than when they left the first time 🤔
