“Why even be good if there’s no heaven?”

They are actually absolutely right. Because I don’t believe in heaven, I’m exactly as evil as I want to be

Fun fact, billionaires are the only ethical meat

I want AI for exactly one thing: helping me put my own thoughts into words. A GPT-3 machine trained in 2021 it’s perfectly good enough for that. For everything else, I want simple if-this-then-that programming.

“Using technology to complain about technology”

This is like pointing at someone who took a bus to a climate science convention to talk about the problems with air travel and saying “wow, you used mass transit to complain about mass transit”

The problem is you can interpret it however you want. It’s very easy to justify defying almost any of Christ’s teachings with some fun wordplay. Matthew 6:5-8 is about performative worship, and Christians don’t do performative worship you see, they are actually worshiping so it doesn’t count. Not sure how they weasel themselves out of Matthew 6:14-15 though

I used to be the kind that would have downvoted this comment, but every android update has me eyeing apple more and more. If there were an equivalent to Tasker, I’d switch in a heartbeat.

Whole-ass human name. Samantha Taylor [your last name] or something like that

Imagine spending 40 billion dollars on one of the most recognizable brands in history, so deeply embedded in the public consciousness that any other company would throw virgins into a volcano for a chance at that level of recognition, just to replace all of that branding with your own little name that everyone has been telling you sounds stupid for the last 25 years

At least K has something to do with Kleenex. It’s more like buying Coca-Cola and changing it to J

I never thought about it like that. If he makes an average of just $0.50 per sale after all the storefront fees and taxes and stuff, he would still have enough money to pay himself $200,000 a year for an entire lifetime, just from the sales he’s already made. No wonder he’s so chill about keeping the game updated for free. What an awesome guy

Yeah, I chose $0.50 as an absurdly low assumption, because while the game nominally sells for $15, I don’t know anything about costs involved. A quick google search says his net worth is somewhere around 30-45 million dollars, which is about twice what I estimated. Which most people would use as an excuse to sell the game to Microsoft and retire forever, but Eric Barone is too good for that. I just realized I only own the game on mobile and xbox. Reckon I might buy it on PC next paycheck

Okay, but you don’t win lawsuits based on how the law ought to be

An online connection will be needed to install the game

Guess I ain’t buying a used copy then

There’s something about that ™ next to the title that makes me want to give it a negative review without ever having played it

Did y’all get it microwaved, or was that just my family?

No shit, that’s the entire problem

Helps protect the shareholders from guillotines after the proles get fed up enough

Not that I’m advocating for that or anything

It takes place in 17th century Japan? I might actually buy a used copy if it doesn’t have any fantasy elements whatsoever, and if the open world aspect isn’t just a time sink like it is in most modern games
