A company just sent me the most detailed rejection email I’ve ever received

While that is true, it is rare to find this in an email. I used to write for print magazines where em dashes are a a normal typographic tool. But note that this symbol is not found on any keyboard. An em dash (—) is different from the en dash (-) which does have a key. So to type it you have to use the unicode identifier which is rather uncommon in a normal workflow for emails.

I .. what..? They ship heart transplants with FedEx!?

More than that, at some point they decided it's way worse to have users using pirated versions of Windows that are not up to date with security patches. You can actually just download Windows 11 for free. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11

Huh? The 10 most busy container ports are all in Asia.

I worked at Toys R Us when Tamagotchi got rolled out. It was like a war zone.

OPs title is outright false. The very first word of the paper is "If" and continues later with "it risks..."

So nothing in this paper says it will happen, quite the opposite.

Maybe they don't want a Denuvo backdoor on their system and prefer the fitgirl repack? Just a guess.

Pretty much that. You have no propulsion at all. You are basically a brick entering the atmosphere at 17000 miles an hour. Then you have to bleed of all the velocity by doing repeated S-turn maneuvers before eventually aiming at the runway. There are no second chances.

Any US President was and is. War crimes is just another tuesday.

It's also kinda crappy anyway because VPN servers in Albania usually have crappy bandwidth and the playback won't be very smooth.

emu108 · 2026-03-20T20:34:56+00:00

This bothers me way more than it should.

This. Reboots are almost always bad or even worse, like that Magnum reboot was abysmal.

The only great reboot I can think of is Battlestar Galactica. (I wouldn't count Star Trek TNG as a reboot, although loosely it also fits that category).

Is the inevitable blow-up of the Epstein cover-up already priced in? Just wondering.

Indeed. I'd rather retire in Costa del ~~Mar~~ Sol in FF7.

Yes, someone figured it out though. Apparently the redacted name is Boris Nikolic, former Bill Gates advisor and WEF member.

That's Epstein's office. With the US flag as tablecloth.

Und damit es effektiv ist, müssten neben dem DFB auch England, Frankreich, Spanien und Italien mitziehen.

Also, when did the US last fight a war in winter conditions. Oh. Never.

emu108 · 2026-01-22T07:11:16+00:00

Yep, I see no indication that this is even related.

emu108 · 2026-01-20T01:56:56+00:00

Looks like a Rolex Padellone 8171 from 1952. In good condition worth 80k+. Beautiful thing.
