Wow, two in a row. I don’t even have to fully type it out again.

Its so easy to say, move. The practical reality is often different. Also why the hell should they move if they aren’t being obnoxious but the neighbors are. There’s a certain level of decency that one should have in any setting. Being obnoxiously stupid to the point of doing all the things in OP’s post makes people like that just fucking unacceptable or intolerable to live with. If people want to live like that then they should go live in the fucking wild. The rest of us actually want to live in civilized society.

Did you even read the article? Its about lava tubes in Saudi Arabia hosting hunter-gatherers, herders, and other generations of humans from the desert heat. Its not some inner earth conspiracy theory. Also why would the Smithsonian host Inner Earth conspiracy theories? From the article,

In the lava tubes, archaeologists discovered human bones, animal remains and stone tools. They also found rock art featuring cattle, sheep, goats and dogs, which aligns with ideas that prehistoric people of the region kept livestock.

“Words invented by white girls…” Dude you are deranged. Seriously get the fuck off the internet. Go do some gardening or find another hobby. Stop the brain rot before you die alone.

If that’s your takeaway from the article then you need to get the fuck off the internet.

Ok you do it then.

Fry’s is dead. They do not exist anymore in any real capacity. https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2021/2/24/22298616/frys-electronics-going-out-of-business

I really wish that there wasn’t just the one in Tustin for the entire state of California. The Bay Area would seem like a no-brainer for a Micro Center but no such luck.

I believe you are thinking of Ethiopia going to war with Eritrea. Eritrea recently gained independence from Ethiopia and now the Ethiopians want a sea port again. Watch that turn into an Iran vs USA proxy war too.

They even closed the Steam discussion thread and didn’t have the decency to properly link to the “New Discussion” wherever the fuck that is taking place. CA have their heads so far up their ass that every bit of shit smells wonderful to them at this point.

Edit: Found the link

Dumb take. That’s not what’s at issue here and making it an excuse to red herring a series you dislike is really dumb.

Sir, This is a Wendy’s!

You are talking to two different accounts.

Sure, Jan.

The obsession boring people have with thinking that someone is going to hack their webcam and record some sort of salacious content of them is astoundingly broad. To the point that very mundane people have web cam covers for their laptops or the little piece of post-it note taped over. Like people, no one gives enough of a shit about you that they will hack your camera and even if they did what are you doing that you care so much? If the answer is nothing then you are the last person that needs to worry about someone hacking a fucking webcam.

This is amazing.

Besides your examples there are only a handful of games where the player has so much as an even chance against the casino and even then it requires doing extra skill based efforts. One example is card counting in blackjack, using basic strategy you can lower the house edge to something like 1% or even a little lower depending on the rules of the table. Counting is the only way to push the edge in the players favor in blackjack. Even then, its taking what is around a 48% chance for favorable player outcomes and barely nudging it to a 50-51% chance for the player. Roulette has some of the best odds, something like a 7-8% chance to land on any one number and with hedge bets those odds go up without any input from either side but even then the house edge in that is still ludicrously high by comparison to blackjack, baccarat or poker.

Physical slots “feel” less likely to be rigged than digital slots but as another commenter said it depends on the jurisdiction one finds themselves in as to whether that is true or not. The state would like their cut too so most regulators want to keep the games fair as fair games draw players in. Rigged games eventually lose casinos business cause word spreads among the players. Overall digital slots just feel less trustworthy and most likely are less trustworthy.

This guy gets it. Thank you for articulating this point so well.

This. So what if Ukraine destroyed the pipeline. Russia invaded their country. Its war. All bets are off when it comes to war. The Ukrainians are allowed to attack Russian assets. Whether they did it themselves or they were helped by the US doesn’t particularly matter. Short of boots on the ground the USA is doing everything it can to support Ukraine in this war. Russia and Russian propagandists can go fuck themselves.
