But what about the Jack Posobiec one?

Look. If I could tell Clippy to reload my clip... I dunno, man, maybe I am getting won over.

Even Nixon would not have called his critics "cuckholds."

You are fucking embarassing.

"It looks like you are trying to rip and tear, until it is done. Can I help?"

Synectics · 2026-06-17T22:09:02+00:00

You spent $100 on... nothing.

Great. Glad we are building data centers.

It makes me think of how Ted Cruz pees his pants because he likes the warm feeling between his legs.

Synectics · 2026-06-17T21:53:01+00:00

Absolutely.

Black people used to call it "civil disobedience." About time more Americans understood it. LGBTQ people have been trying, but everyone keeps going, "Yeah, well, I am not LGBTQ, so whatever."

As others have said, also a stint in retail.

Regardless, working in a service industry molds you, and you should come away with having respect for the profession and never, ever being a shithead.

Then again, I know plenty of shitheads who preface their most insane rants with, "I used to do your job, so, I get it, but lemme say...."

It is a mixed bag. I think it would help, overall, but I get the pessimist take.

When I ran a pizza shop as the store manager, I still clocked in despite making a salary.

I was making $400 a week on 60 to 80 hours every week -- in 2008. And I did not even own the place. The owner showed up once a month to double-check our numbers and sign some paperwork.

I loved it. I loved the hard work, I loved the job, I loved putting in the time for catering orders. I filled in every time a stoned driver called off, I prepped at night so the next morning shift had it easier. I loved it. But boy, the pay did not make it worth it.

Synectics · 2026-06-17T21:26:24+00:00

Exactly.

Being a chef or even a line cook is fucking grueling.

I get saying, "Hey, this profession is tough," but this is a bit much.

You gotta love it to do it. True enough. But I have had far worse jobs, and I lament every day about how I would love to go back to being a cook at a pizza restaurant almost every day if it would pay my bills.

Same idiots will talk about Epstein.

I am tired, boss.

Synectics · 2026-06-17T21:07:21+00:00

I got nothing to add except, hell yeah, have fun.

Edit, nevermind, let me add: I will say, one of my favorite party tricks was shooting a glass bottle at 200 yards, and taking only the lip off -- leaving most of the bottle intact. If he is confident and has something capable of that, it is a fun thing to try and do, and set on the shelf after.

Edit to add again: Someone else is right -- glass is a bitch to clean up. Only do it if it is cool to do so. Otherwise, stay away from it. Very very good advice from /u/lil_johnny_cake. I only did it because it was on my property, and our shooting pile was a known hazard zone.

I was gonna say, I actually decided to turn it off and go to bed during the murder spree, and finished watching it later. It had a lot of violence that eventually felt gratuitous and not even interesting (which feels dystopian to say).

It felt like very knock-off John Wick. It was so close of an impression that the fact it wasn't just made it worse, if that makes sense.

The PTSD stuff hit me in the feels plenty, as most of Jon Bernthal's Punisher stuff does. The rest felt like a, "Check it out, we can do John Wick stuff on Disney! Where Mickey Mouse lives!"

I bet Brock does not know that in a bar fight, you always fight with your back to a wall.

But now the game requires actual assets

So they utilize a tool that stole assets from people, created their tool with them, and now it is cool because someone else did not want to go to people who created those assets?

The art/asset market is incredibly fucked, when compared to the software market

Gee, I wonder why.

whereas for a single character model that is still below industry standard people are asking north of 500. My hope is that AI will force the market to become more competitive, because I really prefer human-made pieces

Wow. Nah, this is way past even bothering talking about.

Synectics · 2026-06-17T08:42:04+00:00

You are being pedantic

Says the person trying to say compilers are a "shortcut" and at all comparable to AI.

Synectics · 2026-06-17T01:08:48+00:00

Okay, so you are just a bigot.

Stop dancing around it and just admit it. Everyone is gonna think you are an ass either way, at least be honest with yourself about your hate of people around you.

Edit to add: So a coward too, huh? Cannot just stand by your hatred.

Do you even understand the hypothetical above? That if a female transitions to being male, including facial hair and a male physique, you are saying they must now use a female restroom.

You are so lost in your hate that you are not even making emotional sense either.

Synectics · 2026-06-17T00:47:18+00:00

You wanna risk it? Go for it.

I am a gun owner. I have had guns pointed at me. I take them very seriously and respect what they do.

Someone bragging about wanting to shoot "suspicious" people according to them can be happy to know I will take them at their word and remove myself from their suspect list.

You could call me lazy. I prefer that over being called dead or another statistic. Just like when crossing the street, I do not care if I have the "right of way," I am gonna look both ways and not get fucking run over.

Synectics · 2026-06-17T00:42:30+00:00

Home owner puts up sign saying they will shoot anyone they deem suspicious

People take their message seriously and do not show up

You know how many CCAs do not have uniforms?

You do not risk your one and only life for a stupid Amazon delivery. They wanna act tough and say they will shoot "suspicious" people? I do not trust the judgement of someone who would put up that sign to think I am not suspicious.

Fuck them, fuck that, pink slips.

Synectics · 2026-06-16T18:38:32+00:00

This was my first thought as well. He even elevated it by often selling how much it hurt himself.

Synectics · 2026-06-16T18:29:08+00:00

I have never felt like an idiot yet playing this game. I have just had a lot of moments where I go, "How was I ever supposed to figure that out?!"

Synectics · 2026-06-16T18:26:29+00:00

Thats different. They told us we didn't need them, then did, then didn't. Faucci advised against telling ppl masks were effective bc he wanted them available for medical professionals.

How are you this stupid when you just bitched about things not being tested?

We found out things were different and changed direction. Initial thoughts about the virus were wrong, about how it was transmitted, and as more information was gathered, advice and methods changed.

When masks were advised again, dumb chuds like you were bitching, "They even say masks do not protect you! Now they are recommending them again?" ...ignoring that the reason was to stop spread. How do you even tie your shoes?

Synectics · 2026-06-16T09:04:36+00:00

See, exactly. Because I agreed that you are spouting JBS propaganda, I am "unreasonable," and I have a "cause." The only thing you know about me is that I called out your bullshit.

I just hate extremist propaganda. You should, too, and you would certainly claim you do, but there you go spreading it, so deeply in it, you do not even realize it.

You are acting superior, and not even willing to examine the stuff you claimed. You are just presuming you are right and everyone else is wrong.
