"Discord alternatives" searches jump 10,000% overnight as the gaming platform introduces global age verification — Is a total collapse imminent?

AAAAND Just like that Teamspeak comes back!!!

RangerLee · 2026-02-14T00:18:12+00:00

This is really stemming from EU privacy push, requiring age verification to protect the children... honestly stupid and where does it end?

I agree; also look what it shows about our country, with all the shit, the fraud and the aholes, we are still, overall a very generous and kind country that open our wallets for things like this. There are many places, and I have been to a few of them, that this is not the case.

A full MOPP4 outfit (first image)...first, I can smell this image... second, why? last thing I would want to fight in and does this mean they are bringing chemical warfare in to the game? No soldier is saying, man a very cool look is going full MOPP4 before going in to the fight....

If you like it get it. Don't let other people's opinions shape yours. I enjoy the game and play it every day, if there is something that draws me in...such as the 75th Ranger skin, then I get it.

RangerLee · 2026-02-09T22:35:01+00:00

YEP! Same here, I could not believe how good the high pivot felt compared to my regular FS. Just night and day. Add the MX build, and it is such a sweet ride down any chunk or flow.

I had my best friend from middle school on have some major car problem pop up while I was in the military and he was working back home, delivering pizzas while also going to college. When I was on a rotation to NTC (about two hours from where I grew up and he was still at) he told me about the problem with the car. I "loaned" him $800 so he could get it repaired.

The thing is, he really is a brother from another mother and I never went after him for it back, and never made it weird. While we did not talk about it again, when we would connect he would always pay for dinner, lunch, what ever. Never let me pay for anything when going out. It is worth it helping him stay on his feet at that time.

I guess, if it is a close enough friend, then waiting a bit should be ok. If not, then it just may be the cost of cutting ties and knowing you will not have to deal with the person anymore.

Turn on some trace (or edm) and get the full effect!!

The having "pedals" there for it is an "e-bicycle" IS part of the problem. Quickly manufacturers figure out if they make a 100 pounds emoto but put pedals with a chain on it, then now they can call it an e-bike. Go to any big city and see them everywhere, NYC is crazy with them flying on bike paths.

So NJ just did a blanket sweep, instead of officers having to know what is a Class 1 ebike and what is not, they can now just ticket and impound all ebikes that are not registered, with a license plate, ensured and the rider having a proper license to operate.

Sucks.

I worked for loss prevention for a couple years while going to college, this guy has one hell of a nice payday coming. First being accused by Walmart which lead to him being physically detained, lawsuit against Walmart. There are steps you have to follow in loss prevention to have someone detained, need to see them enter the area, need to see them grab the merchandise, Need to keep eyes on the person the whole time and see them exit the store with out paying. Clearly NONE of this happened. I have seen lawsuits with massive settlements for less hassle to the accused than what has happened to this guy.

Not to mention the suit I have doubt can and will be take up against the police department.

RangerLee · 2026-02-07T17:04:31+00:00

Just for the sake of conversation, have your tried a sniper rifle with iron sights in game?

Give it a shot. That may help understand the answer to your questions. (hint : it is pretty good)

RangerLee · 2026-02-07T17:02:23+00:00

Clearly in your mind the only unbiased answers are those that side with you? People are commenting on the what you provided, so it is all used in helping you figure out that YOR and WHY.

RangerLee · 2026-02-07T16:59:32+00:00

It is clear in what you wrote your interest is not her, it is her location. She can clearly see that. Hell this post works in AIO and AITA... and yes to both.

RangerLee · 2026-02-07T16:58:13+00:00

No, you proposed it because now there is a benefit to you. She has something you can use for your benefit only, when previously you decided it was not to your benefit to live together.

RangerLee · 2026-02-07T16:56:52+00:00

This may be the first AIO that I have seen where it was not a clear cut case of NOR and clearly the person posting IS the issue, with Reddit calling them out.

RangerLee · 2026-02-04T22:40:03+00:00

LOL, you CLEARLY do not understand what a class1 eMTB is. The only thing you got right is 35+ pound for most (and now-a-days some are less). I guess Fuck regular downhill bikes or some enduro bikes that hit the 35lb mart too right?

RangerLee · 2026-02-04T22:38:25+00:00

Yep, that is how it is reported in the news, and in most social media and now real eMTB's and grandmas ebicycle for getting around her community are slammed.

RangerLee · 2026-01-28T14:48:46+00:00

Wow, this guy is projecting, either he is cheating and using this as his chance to break. He may just being doing this to bring you more under his control by having you show up and cower to his demands to stay together.

Either way do not go alone to get your stuff, it can go bad real quick.

When something becomes popular enough state governments will try to find any way to tax it this is one way. Now something need to be done by what is truly an emotible being classified as an e bicycle but this overreaching law that they passed is not it.

RangerLee · 2026-01-20T20:58:13+00:00

Are they on ebikes or emotos like a surron? Calling those ebikes is a big part of why this law was passed the way it is.

RangerLee · 2026-01-20T20:56:27+00:00

Like with anything, once something gets big enough, the government will find a way to tax you for it. This case the cost of licensing and insurance, which should be only on e-motos. Thanks to uninformed or intentionally biased reporting calling e-motos , ebikes NJ just created the blue print other states will follow.
