This thumbnail is so full of shit I won't be clicking.

I gave WinXP its very own public IPv4 address for an entire month and literally nothing happened. Squeaky clean at the end.

Tell one receipt checker to kill themselves at a Walmart 60 miles away, and I haven't been asked for a receipt since at any Walmart

So nice that they remember my preferences across locations. Excellent customer service.

@bot
It's even funnier when you remember that I do field IT work for them about once a month and the camera system isn't going to know why I've walked in on a given day.

So imagine you're a team lead or assistant manager, it's 1AM when no customers are supposed to be present, your handheld buzzes and says "⚠️ A complete and total asshole just walked in!" with my picture, and then said asshole walks up to you and says "Hi yes hello I'm here to replace your store controller, lemme get at that server room"

@lamp @bot Again, this is why I'm a bitter, angry individual.

Look how well I did. Look how much it didn't matter because my teams are miserable failures not worth a bucket of warm spit.

And they were nasty to me the entire time, questioning my dedication and saying things no human being should ever have to hear.

but it's "just" harmless fun because it was transmitted over a network, right?

I'm really bad at lying to people, and I really like helping people.

Being an outright scammer isn't really an option for me. I read the local police blotter and there's a few streets of obscenely rich boomers who go buy gift cards and Bitcoin for the IRS literally every day.

And I'm like "gosh golly, if I didn't have morals, I'd be fucking loaded"

There are basically two reasons I haven't roped yet.

  1. nobody else will preserve Ekko's original lore and design
  2. too many people would be happy I died

I continue to exist purely out of spite.

Just btw have any of yall had any issues with the new anticheat or know anybody who has?

I'm afraid to play right now because I don't want to lose all of that progress. I keep a separate computer for League and don't run anything on it that's not League but I've heard way too many horror stories about false bans even on clean equipment.

@r000t @trollcall Makes you think if it's a mindset sort of think that makes it easier to social engineer people. Is it cause Americans are more naive and think of the best of people. I think to myself "How well does social engineering work in Israel where we are more suspicious?" Someone needs to do some white hat social engineering to test this hypothesis. :blobcatreading:

  1. people like to help
  2. people don't like rocking boats

Earlier today I more or less walked into the kitchen of a chain restaurant with my bag of tricks with absolute impunity. Sure, I was allowed to be there, but nobody who saw me do so knew that.

Btw those thin clients that display orders get absolutely fucking nasty and disgusting and covered in grease and I'm not eating at any restaurants for a while.

@r000t So not only did they ignore market effects, they didn't do baseline due diligence to see the impact on the grid.

Again, you and your ilk hate the poor and efficiency.

r000t,
@r000t@ligma.pro avatar

@ghast
Ah, yes, republicans, well known for being champions of the poor.

So what are your thoughts on...

  • Raising the minimum wage
  • Single-payer healthcare
  • Welfare and housing assistance
  • Workplace safety regulations
  • Indoor air quality (gas stoves are super bad for this)
  • outdoor air quality
  • Abortions, which prevent the poor from being saddled with additional costs?

I'm also having a super hard time believing that any such regulation is going to mandate the immediate replacement of every gas stove. Regulations like this almost always apply to new purchases.

And on top of all of this, please try to remember that my original post was about water heaters with only a passing reference to conservative whining over gas stoves.

So let's talk about efficiency. A heat pump does something interesting, it has a coefficient of performance that is higher than one. This means that if you put in x watt-hours of energy, you get more than x watt-hours worth of heat, usually multiple times more. Pretty efficient if you ask me!

Now of course that applies to water heaters and not stoves, but I can understand if you need to jump around and teleport between goalposts to save face.

You won't be getting any more engagement from me today. I've made my argument and you've made your "argument", nobody's changing each other's mind today, and you've namecalled far more than the person you're accusing of name-calling.

But I sure do hope you maintain this (very sincere, I'm sure) passion for effeciency and helping the poor when any of the issues I've listed above come up.

Have a nice day!

"Kernel-mode anti-cheat does not represent attack surface! It's entirely unhackable! It's literally impossible for there to be any vulnerabilities! It's the absolute pinnacle of secure code! It's bug-free! You're schi-"

UPDATE: Both companies are denying involvement, and the streamer in question is suddenly "interviewing" the person who supposedly popped him. I'm calling bullshit on said streamer.

@epictittus Once League becomes unplayable, Minecraft is probably the last game I'll play. You can run your own server, you can run it in a docker container with a restricted network, you can use any version you so choose, all my friends still play it. It really is the perfect game.

Phenomenally based.

tl;dr: Facebook trying to save money by not having human reviews of bans is about to cost them $50k for a false positive.

And they likely would not have lost if they.... Responded to the lolsuit.

@coin @hwestiii Once, after I had equipment seized by local cops, I got an order from a judge saying "After 30 days, Naperville police shall [emphasis mine] return all equipment seized from Mr. Strater"

And I walked into that police department 30 days later with a court order. Some hemming and hawing, but ultimately, I was given my equipment after I asked "Should I just go tell Judge Coco that you're willfully violating a Court order? What's your name?"

@r000t @ignaloidas gap is a major meme among HR experts, if they start asking for all the precise dates because I only have summaries for chunks of time for space reasons, I simply walk away.

@cereal @ignaloidas You can fudge a few months, you cannot fudge 5 years.

Rynach,

@r000t I don't understand people who choose to have kids at that age. Al won't likely see the kid entering college. And also the risk of kid having autism or similar issues rises sharply.

@r000t@ligma.pro avatar

game after game, I consistently outperform, I apply ungodly amounts of skill expression, I dominate my role....

and still, at the end of the game, it says "DEFEAT", because my teams always find a way to lose.

this is why League is a failed game. there's more opportunities for skill expression in a fucking slot machine.

which, ultimately, is what they want to turn it into.

neo,

@r000t @vriska Wait, seriously? I thought they made an exception for GeForce specifically.
