Phase 1: Fuck around

Phase 2: Find out

ooterness,

The general rule is to go by sound.

Read aloud, RTS is pronounced “are-tee-ess”, so it starts with a vowel sound, so it’s “an RTS”.

The same rule also applies to regular words. For example, “an hour” is preferred because the “h” is silent.

ooterness,

Those fish know what they did.

“I’d like to share a revelation I’ve had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you’re not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with their surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to another area, and you multiply, and you multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we are the cure.” -Agent Smith

If there’s 1000 subscribers, shouldn’t this post have 1000 upvotes? Someone’s not pulling their weight!

ooterness,

Good advice, but is this a meme?

ooterness,

The only problem is humans are completely incapable of doing this for more than a few minutes. It’s why lifeguards are required to take frequent breaks, for example, or why TSA agents find the water bottles but miss the guns. But it still works as a magical fig leaf for the company to deflect liability.

Problem: Large studios aren’t winning awards, because their products aren’t as creative as smaller studios.

Microsoft solution: If you buy up all the small studios and close them down, then the awards will have to go to large studios, because there are no small studios.

Result: Line go up stonks.

Get life insurance. Hire hitman. Pay hitman with the life insurance money.

ooterness,

Joke’s on them: those aliens don’t perceive time, so the concept of pressing keys in sequence is impossible to convey.

ooterness,

Incentives like this are tricky. You can reduce the numbers by fixing the problem, or by sweeping it all under the rug. Guess which is easier to do on a quarterly basis?

ooterness,

There’s a song about this. (Different ancient creature, but the principle is the same.)

ooterness,

It’s not even the company’s first fine for similar misbehavior.

If the fine isn’t big enough to act as a deterrent, it’s almost like granting permission to do it again.

ooterness,

Yes, very nice, but hear me out: What if all that but also railguns?

ooterness,

That’s why you park it in the middle of the carrier support group.

ooterness,

Gatling railgun, only 1/6 the barrel wear per shot.

ooterness,

You’re quite right, but this forum is for non-credible ideas, and we need something to counter the T-59.

ooterness,

ELI5: How is this a science meme?

ooterness,

Excuse me, but I am the rightful King of the Moon, so you could not possibly have ruled it.

ooterness,

That’s weird, the watermark says, “I have altered the deal. Pray I do not alter it further.”

ooterness,

DANG, I’VE BEEN DOING IT WRONG. I ONLY DRINK MOTOR OIL 'CUZ IT’S SO REFRESHING AND 'CUZ I CAN SHARE WITH MY HOG. AROOOOOO!

ooterness,

These services are so useless. I have about a million years of free “monitoring” from all the data breeches. Whoever decided a year of useless false-alarms was an adequate remedy for a class-action settlement should be launched into the sun.

ooterness,

It’s a matter of trust. This is just the latest in a long and increasing train of Microsoft abusing their market power. They have proven, time and again, that they cannot be trusted.

Anyone who tries to pull an “I have altered the deal, pray I do not alter it further” gets a lifetime boycott.
