If that ain’t the truth. Moved across the state to find work, and obviously my old buddies can’t invite me to as many things anymore. But seeing them all on a call together playing video games without even a heads up hurts a smidge.
Firstly, of course they’re not paying child support, because being a sovcit requires you to be an insufferable asshole first obviously.
Secondly, I mean, I don’t condone shady businesses practices or grifting. But man, whoever running that is an absolute genius. Scammer for sure, and while I hate scammers to my very core, something about scamming these people in particular feels so very poetic. Someone should maybe tell them, but man… this is funny.
Naive, perhaps, but if a company advertises a service, they better fucking deliver on that service. Sure, I wouldn’t store all of my important documents solely on a cloud service either, but let’s not victim blame the guy here who paid for a service and was not given that service. Google’s Enterprise plan promised unlimited data; whether that’s 10 GB or 200 TB, that’s not for us nor Google to judge. Unlimited means unlimited. And in an article linked in the OP, even customer service seemed to assure them that it was indeed unlimited, with no cap. And then pulled the rug.
And on top of that, according to the article, Google emailed them saying their account would be in “read-only” mode, as in, they could download the files but not upload any. Which is fine enough-- until Google contacted them saying they were using too much space and their files would all be deleted. Space that, again, was originally unlimited.
Judge the guy all you want, but don’t blame him. Fuck Google, full stop.
If you go during non-peak days and have a general game plan, it’s not that bad. You can get a good amount of ride time going if you time your Fastpasses (they’re free) good enough.
The pricetag, though, that’s on you to decide. I like going, but I wouldn’t go more than, like, once… a decade.
As a little nitpick, “extreme pressure” is partially true. We do need “extreme” pressure; not extremely high pressure, but extremely low pressure. We have these series of pumps that are able to remove more and more particles at each step. We have your standard pumps that get rid of most gases, then we have turbomolecular pumps that blow away a lot of the matter that remains, and then we have things like ion pumps, which electrocutes molecules in a vacuum and sucks them out using electric fields. This way, we’re able to create better vacuums here on Earth better than Space itself.
I mean, pulling it back for a second, what the fuck would an “abstract study” even be about? What, would you publish the results of your thought experiment?
I mostly use c:geo, which shows caches that a free Geocache account on the official app won’t, except Premium-only caches, which are designated by the cache owner. (That is to say, the official Geocache app won’t show free accounts caches above a certain difficulty/terrain, but you can find them online, and there’s no way...
Calling Devolver Digital the “Cult of the Lamb publisher” is like calling Pixar the “Toy Story 4 creators”. It’s not untrue, but they’re also known for publishing a lot of other things. But I get why they picked this game for the headline, it’s in vogue right now.
Terraria is like the anti-modern game. They absolutely refuse to evilly monetize their game at all. The playerbase is almost on their knees, begging them to move on from Terraria and make something else (not because Terraria is bad, but they’ve been at it for over a decade!) and they continue to churn out updates. The fanbase voted for a set of features to appear in Terraria 2, which they then turned around and scrapped, and added it as an update to Terraria. And all their updates are always free. And can’t forget about their amazing mod support.
A very wrong proof once showed that the sum of all positive integers (1 + 2 + 3 + 4…) was -1/12. In reality, the infinite sum has no solution, so this proof became something of a meme.
Honestly, you just know this is someone with actual grammar skills pretending to write all broken-English like, it hits that creepy vibe right on the head. Like it’s not obviously fake like some people who write crazy off the walls shit as bait; this gives off just the right amount of a lack of self-awareness that gives it an air of legitimacy. 10/10, props to OP.

Completely irrelevant, but that other commentor was the very first spam bot I’ve ever seen on Lemmy, felt like that was worth commenting on. Not sure if that’s a good or bad thing— good that Lemmy has enough traction to warrant someone somewhere to code a spam bot, bad for obvious reasons.
