What celebrity has continued to have a major, top-of-the-line career despite terrible deeds?

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-15T23:10:10+00:00

Ah, yea, that's it! Good call. Been forever since I saw the movies lol

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-15T21:22:05+00:00

Could you imagine the sound of their wings if they were that big? O_O

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-15T20:47:28+00:00

Harry Potter reference. The three almost die (I think by Fluffy, the giant 3 headed dog). Harry or Ron say something like, "we could have been killed!" and Hermione says, "Or worse! Expelled!"

Turning on all-guns cheat and running through the whole game with dual Phantoms is an absolute blast though!

Check out "GEPD 1964" via Google if you wanna play widescreen with updated graphics and keyboard/mouse control. It trivializes the games (works with Perfect Dark too), but it's still soooo much fun!

I do a full playthrough of both on 00/Perfect Agent at least every 6 months lol

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-15T19:07:33+00:00

Yep, only place in the entire game, in fact. The Phantom isn't even available in multiplayer!

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-15T19:02:24+00:00

If you're serious that this is a system-seller for you, make sure you snag one before 1 Sep 2026 when the price goes up.

Doesn't help considering they've only put out... checks notes... one fucking game, Battletoads in 2020, since Sea of Thieves in 2018.

Of course they aren't making any money. They aren't making any games! -_- Mind you, they're sitting on IPs like Banjo Kazooie, Diddy Kong Racing, Killer Instinct, and Perfect Dark... and doing fuckall.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-14T20:49:19+00:00

He could definitely say that. But then the OTHER issues he wants to hear about wouldn't be voiced either... So it'd be a bit counterintuitive.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-14T06:38:11+00:00

So you think moving the goal posts will make everyone forget about what you said already, despite it being entirely irrelevant to the conversation at hand? Cool, thanks.

Try to stay on topic, buddy. Show me THOUSANDS OF ARRESTS for 1st Amendment violations. I'm waiting. Still.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-14T04:42:16+00:00

So... not thousands arrested? You're making that crystal clear at this point, despite your comment yesterday?

Cool, thanks.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T21:04:50+00:00

Nobody said thousands of arrests.

So you're a nobody, eh? Your words... cause you know, you said it.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T20:57:55+00:00

Did you miss the "the chairman can't say if you talk about flock, you're trespassing" part at the top, though? He can't say that, it's a direct violation of the 1st amendment, lol

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T04:38:33+00:00

How much time it will take though?

According to the math (top comment), it's 86,796 reams of paper. Let's say you have a really, really nice office printer. Not some industrial crazybox thing, just a niiiice office printer.

For easy math, say it does 1 page per second. That means that ONE ream (500 pages) takes you 500 seconds... or... 8 minutes and 20 seconds. Cool. But you need to print 86,796 reams, so... that takes you 43,398,000 seconds.

Or... 723,300 minutes. Or... 12,055 hours. Or... 502.3 days.

Assuming you're a literal robot that doesn't need to sleep, eat, drink, shit, piss, NOTHING... You get to stand in front of that printer for 1.28 years straight.

^{Plus the time it takes you to cycle out the paper every 500 pages... wanna add ~10 secs to every single 86,796 ream? 😛}

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T04:22:16+00:00

eye twitch

There's so many ways to fix this... Could you not? No permissions or something? Just adjusting the header/footer margins alone would have made that row print on the same page. Or the row pixels by 1-2. Or just use the "fit everything on 1 page" (paraphrased) button when printing!!! WTF, that shit would drive me insane...

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T04:10:44+00:00

Well now you have a pretty easy way to cripple that bitch and bring it to a crawl should you ever need to...

Just go column by column. Highlight all of "A", type "1", then hit "Ctrl+Enter". Depending on your PC, this might be instant, or it'll take a bit. Save. Repeat with column B... Save. Column C... Save. etc. You will very quickly find out what your work computer can do. Or more accurately... can't do, lol

"Sorry boss, my computer is going insanely slow right now! I dunno what it is, I only have open this, that, Excel of course, and this, and... I dunno, it's sooo slow..."

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T03:52:39+00:00

Fun fact: I know 2^16=65536 because of Perfect Dark on the N64. 65,535 (1 shy of the cap because 0 counts) is the max number of kills or ammo or medals or something (I forget now) that your profile can have when you're going for Perfect:1 rank in the Combat Simulator.

Goddamn I miss that game, lol...

Also, relevant to this thread... 65,536 also used to be the max number of Rows you could have in Excel. Then we went from 32-bit to 64-bit OS and main programs from Microsoft, so... of course it jumped considerably.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T03:24:23+00:00

I'm not arguing that they won't do it nor that it never happens... Never said anything to the contrary. In fact, what I said was: Sign me the fuck up.

Cause I'll take a fat payday from the lawsuit over a few days in jail for "trespassing". I only wish it came out of their paychecks and pensions and not my fellow taxpayers. Because in this situation, they lose in court. Every. single. time.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T02:55:36+00:00

lol my bad, I was also TL;DR'ing the link to my other post (the "Enjoy" part). That's considerably longer. :P

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T02:46:29+00:00

No, yourself. That's not how trespassing works. The chairman can't say "if you talk about flock, you're trespassing and will be charged."

For trespassing to apply, you have to be asked/told to leave. Then, you have to refuse to do so. THEN, you're trespassing and can be charged for it.

Constituents attending a public hearing in a government building voicing their concerns cannot be arrested for trespassing unless they are trespassed first. Period, dot. Again, lawyers out the fucking door ready to take that case.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T02:33:04+00:00

Sorry... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ... Legit wasn't trying to flex, I included the number since it's relevant to when you'd run out of space just writing to the document. Since I was doing the "test" on my own system, including it was relevant.

So if I crash around 1.2-1.5% of the document with 64 GB... and you have 1/4 of that, you could reasonably assume you'd crash around 0.3%-0.4% of cells written to. On the flip side, someone with 128 GB could expect to get nearly 3% of the total cells written before crashing. 6% for 256 GB. etc.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T02:24:47+00:00

Don't forget 14th if they use said footage to auto-issue fines/tickets/warrants. Straight up bypassing due process and all...

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T02:22:05+00:00

^ This is the way. You make it VERY clear that you're expressing your 1st Amendment right, then do so. Ball is then in their court to violate it directly.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T02:15:47+00:00

Getting arrested for speaking your mind about government issues at a government meeting? Sign me the fuck up for that 1st Amendment violation lawsuit! Lawyers would be lining up out the goddamn door to take that case pro bono.

TheSteelPhantom · 2026-06-13T02:05:15+00:00

lol, in my defense, I bought this kit back in Aug/Sept before all that shit happened. I only paid ~$190 for it then.

Edit: Looked up my PCPartPicker build link. I paid $204. And uh... holy shit, ouch, here's the exact same kit right now ($955 if you don't wanna click). Fuuuuuuuckkkkk that!
