What if they’re stalking their prey?

“All you have to do is just pay attention!”

I call BS. There are still tools and ways you could easily break through it. Plenty of which are far better than just kicking it.

970 and the drivers are still shite

The IT guy just liked to play games at lunch time. He even organized a few LAN parties every year at the school.

The Tesla power armoured Battalion was defeated due to the enemy timing its attacks with mandatory software updates.

All I knew from my perspective was that this teacher was angry at the existence of those games and the IT guy never removed them so she tried to circumvent him. To me that tells me that the school management either allowed it or simply didn’t care.

The computers weren’t really that locked down or secure from user tampering. Some idiots would even install malware all the time on them like Bonzi Buddy for shits and giggles. The IT guy didn’t strike me as the hard working type and would only re-image a computer if it was no longer functioning.

That reminds me of back when I was in high school. The IT guy was a big gamer and had installed RainbowSix on all the machines in the computer lab so we could play against each other during lunch time including himself.

One stuck up, self-righteous teacher heard about the game and tried to have the IT guy delete it from all the computers because they were “violent games that had no business being in school”. He refused and the school’s administration seemed to have his back on it. So during a computer class she instructed the entire class to delete the game folder from their computer and empty the recycle bin and then leave the file explorer open so she could walk around and see that it has been done.

While everyone else were deleting theirs I copied the game folder on my machine elsewhere, then deleted the original to show her that it wasn’t there anymore. After she was gone I moved the folder back where it belonged and shared it on the network so everyone else could copy it back into their computer. The following lunch break it took less than 5 minutes to get the game back on everyone’s computer and we kept playing like nothing happened. Get fucked, hag.

IT is incompetent. You could easily disable ability to change desktop backgrounds for students

Why would the consequence of a structural crack be the cause of a de-orbit and not an explosive depressurization anyway?

Looking back at my life having seen my salary slowly increase over my career, you always end up taking for granted what you once worked hard to get and comparing yourself with people who make more, making you want more. But nobody should make so little that they have to worry.

Back when I was still on Reddit, I made a comment on a chess sub saying that in chess you are not allowed to make your king “commit suicide” to explain how a stalemate works. One day later I got a message about suicide prevention because someone flagged me for promoting suicide.

What a dumb site.

I used to do the top left one. But it wasn’t ADHD, it was acute depression.

Definitely what a sane party and not a cult of personality would do.

And completely neglects the chain of command to directly berate a drill sergeant. That’s like the CEO of McDonald’s going to a franchise to berate the guy making fries.

And the recruits shoot for their first time at 300 meters.

Yeah, we know why he decided to have his fists in the air like that.

Imagine the memes if someone started shooting Nazis and his name happened to be Mario

I heard that in some cultures genies are enslaved demons and malicious compliance is the only way they have left to fight back

It is worse than that. They made it so the printer will refuse to print if it hasn’t installed a new update. They took control over the printer away from their owners and it really looks like this is meant to pave the way to anti-consumer practices such as forcing an always on-online requirement, introducing subscription fees to keep some functionalities that used to be free and/or denying the ability to use third party filaments or parts. The “it is for security” excuse is pretty much a meme at that point. It never is about security and always about screwing over the consumer for more money.

I was looking forward to buying a Bambu printer but now it is off the table for me. I’ve been burned too many times by devices that arbitrarily require to be connected to “the cloud” to function. There is absolutely no good reason why a 3D printer cannot be directly controlled via USB or local network without the need for a connection to the internet for “authentication” (imagine how much more secure that would be!). I’m glad I got to see this before I bought one. Bambu owners should be pissed right now. They just got the rug pulled from under them.

It’s just another case of Musk trying to sound smart but instead ends up proving that he doesn’t even have a basic working understanding on the subject.

I guess this time the only difference is that it doesn’t look like he paid an actually competent person to help him with it.
