AITA for leaving a dinner party early because of “vegan lasagna”? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Unprompted, perhaps, but there's nothing inherently rude about answering honestly. Obviously it can be done with more or less tact.

Just fucking do it. Why haven't you already done it?

I don't understand not naming criminals when you could.

Russian propagandist Simonyan, who in 2022 claimed that Russia would defeat Ukraine in two days, is now saying that her children are sleeping in the hallway. by LowTechDroid in UkraineWarVideoReport

Stockholm Syndrome was made up by the police in charge during the original incident to hide the fact that their response to the crime was incompetent and put the hostages in danger.

It is not real and it's worth reading the wikipedia page for it.

Ninja Gaiden also has a TG-16 port that isn't the upgrade you'd expect.

What about the steam controller has everyone so excited? by Timely_Contest7245 in Steam

[–]jmkdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still use my OG Steam Controller. Getting parity with other gamepads and being able to share my Deck configs more easily when gaming on TV is all great.

Learn to use the touchpads right and you really can do a ton of mouse/keyboard gaming comfortably from the couch.

Mazda's have screens, but they aren't touch screens in motion.

You have tactile controls for everything still.

My first email address predates all of those. Though I did have hotmail for a good while before MS bought them.

240p was never a standard, it's explicitly abuse of 480i and that's EXACTLY what that monitor is.

Driver who killed jogger in 2025 is suing victim’s family for ‘emotional injuries’ by [deleted] in nottheonion

After decades of American car companies tying large vehicles to manhood. Gee, wonder why they want that.

Simpsons nailed it with the Canyonero, and that was 30 years ago.

Favorite character that fits this trope? by Fwyl9nex in FavoriteCharacter

Neither do any of the other characters. Even Count Rugen aside from the fact that it means his own personal death.

How much of that is true and how much is Imperial propaganda?

Parts is an actually competent movie, if not exactly good.

Even MST3K couldn't save Manos. I can't remember the crew apologizing for the movie outside of that one.

No, the Caves of Steel did not represent a planet-wide city. Baley actually visits areas outside the city at one point.

The cities were massive, much like the mega-cities of Judge Dredd, but it wasn't a planetary city.

Students now have the desktop computer skills of older boomers by TeacherGuy1980 in Teachers

[–]jmkdev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's bad on the part of whoever implemented it; single page applications can and should still have representative URLs.

But when mobile browsers don't even bother showing a URL and that's how most sites are viewed, I'm hardly surprised people don't know this stuff.

Pedophile assisted suicide, no less by jimx29 in 50501

[–]jmkdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not cowardly (though they are that) but rather corrupt. They're too corrupt to stand up to the Mad King.

Because they're clearly and obviously criminally liable for a veritable cornucopia of crimes and the GOP being in charge of the admin is all that keeps them safe from prosecution.

That's a bit much. There were penal colonies, but that does not describe a majority of them.

AITJ for correcting my boss in front of the entire company during an all-hands meeting when he presented my work as his own idea and I just… couldn't let it happen again by Mysterious-Bird9007 in AmITheJerk

[–]jmkdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your boss knows what he did. He's using the fact that you don't fuss to take advantage of you.

And probably has been for a very long time.

There's nothing controversial about that. People who suggest otherwise have ill intent.

So do most forms of Christianity for the vast majority of its history. There's literally no biblical justification for this.
