I’m just a weird, furry, pan guy (cis he/him). I also have a big, blue username.

I’m learning Japanese so sometimes I might write something out in romaji just to practice. Please correct it if it’s wrong!

Practically none of the fun ones. Just weed, coke, mushrooms and LSD.

I get the feeling the real answer is just sexism. Jobs similar to social work or just filing and paperwork anywhere tend to be majority female in my observation. Just like how manufacturing and other physical labor jobs are mostly men.

From the copyright office's website:

Do I have to register with your office to be protected?

No. In general, registration is voluntary. Copyright exists from the moment the work is created. You will have to register, however, if you wish to bring a lawsuit for infringement of a U.S. work. See Circular 1, Copyright Basics, section “Copyright Registration.”

That's why DMCA exists. For the most part, the Internet is full of copyright infringement that is simply never acted upon. DMCA shit makes it so the posters and the host aren't liable for infringement, so long as they comply with official take downs within X period of time (with a chance to appeal).

Because certain types of text aren't actually copyrightable. You can't copyright a fact, for one.

Copyright does not protect facts, ideas, systems, or methods of operation, although it may protect the way these things are expressed.

For some of those (ideas, systems, or methods of operation) you need a patent. Even with the copyright clause in a comment, it might not be valid. At least concerning US laws.

"Know any cheat codes, dad?"

"Yeah, but you're not getting any until you learn how to win without them."

"Aww..."

"Alright... You can have Big Head mode."

But they spent it all on a green dress (but not a real green dress, because that's cruel).

Torrenting exposes your public IP. In a country where government doesn't care, does that pose a risk?

I honestly don't believe I will have any legal trouble because I don't do anything like cp or worse, I just pirate media I like, not even porn. But across users of communities, or on public trackers, is IP exposure something to be concerned about?

Torrent on public access wifi from McDonald's, the local library, your neighbor's unsecured router, etc...

Pray tell how they would find the user from an IP address that will resolve to a location other than where they live that they connect to anonymously?

I actually was recording when I made the most gnarly mun landing ever in KSP. I ran out of fuel, was going too fast to not explode. I moved Valetina to hang on the outside of the craft, and moments before impact, I had her jump off. The resulting explosion from the module was juuuust enough counter force to prevent Valentina herself from hitting the ground too hard and she lived to plant a flag. To date, it's the most impressive thing I've personally managed in the game.

I thought he was funny in the 90's. I saw a newer stand up special he did a couple years ago and was totally turned off by his views and the fact that not one of his jokes were actually funny.

Same with Dennis Miller.

I've been told when I went to bitch about that special on Reddit that he was only funny before because he wasn't writing his own jokes, and I'm not sure if that is actually true but it would make sense.

The only thing I crave when it's hot is water. Juice is tasty, but it is not thirst quenching or cooling. If I'm trying to cool off or hydrate, I don't want anything with sugar (or sugar substitutes) in it.

I do drink a lot of pineapple juice in most other situations, though. I love pineapple 🤤

Easiest Hello World program ever was in BASIC.

10 PRINT "Hello World"
20 GOTO 10

Don't even have to call a library or declare a variable! Meanwhile, I can't even remember the shit you need to put in front of every C/C++ program (HREF/void.h or something; it's usually there automatically these days in some compilers, like Visual Studio).

Anyone who is still doing the right thing and not in it for money or themselves. Which is fucking rare as shit these days.

I feel like you could still make hella profit if you gave people what they ask for instead of ignoring them.

Like instead of firing all your workers to save money on wages, you let your artistic people cook and do what you fucking hired them to do instead of sticking your corpo hands into it and making it a bland piece of shit nobody wants.

I've seen these romance scams happen in real time while I was a relay operator. The people falling for them are just... Sad. Imagine being so sad and lonely, you'd literally do anything for anyone who says anything kind to you. That's who falls for these. The scammer doesn't even work at it. They just be like "I love you baby, can you send me $15,000?" And the victim is like "Yeah baby, I can do that."

I want the animals I eat to live super happy, comfortable lives and then be killed quickly while they are unaware. It makes better meat. Just try those steaks from those super massive body-builder looking cows in Japan that get fed hella good food and have massages 3 times a day.

I saw a guy filling a Home Depot bucket at the Arco earlier today. Now I'm wondering if it's because of something like this.

I mean, it can track the files on the drive and make searching for things I have on the computer faster (indexing). Or it would on a good OS, anyway. 🤷🏻‍♂️

If I am asked politely, with a please and thank you, to do something I have no problem with it 99% of the time.

But if you just drop hints, are rude AF, or straight up demand something, even if I get the hint it makes me not want to do whatever it is you want.

And maybe they don't even want help, they just wanna be asked if they need help so they can say "no."

If the Earth is flat, what makes flat earth believers think you'd fall off the edge and not simply step onto the other side of the coin? If you fell off where would you go? Cuz they don't think space is real, either.

If you didn't forsee people getting pissed at a content add that costs $250 and not counted as DLC so those with the lifetime DLC pass don't get it without paying more, you are a monumental moron and probably shouldn't be in charge of running a business where you have employees who can lose their livelihood because of your poor leadership and incredible lack of foresight.

The NCR seems to represent the real world government and what is normal in reality. They have made missteps that have led to tragedy but overall, are still good and probably the best chance that world has to returning to how things were before the bombs fell.

The BOS are technofascists and the Legion are Luddite fascists. They have practically the same ideas for how they want to control the world, but have opposite ideals about technology.

The only faction worse than the previous two is the Enclave, which represent the fear of government; they embody every aspect of every anti-government conspiracy featured in pop culture. The shadow government; the illuminati; the men in black.

I want to mention the Institution, but they're just so poorly written and can swing from Enclave-like evil to not being evil at all after the Sole Survivor takes over that I honestly just hope the show never bothers to mention them because they don't fit as neatly into the world as the rest, which were created by better writers.

You've just described astroturfing with the appeal to friendship thing. You may not always know if a random dude on social media who talks about a thing is doing so because they actually like it, or if they're a paid shill. They even sometimes run smear campaigns against competing products, so if someone is badmouthing a thing, they could have been paid to do that also.

McDonald's pioneered franchising. Even the actual restaurant wasn't original, Ray Crock just bought the name from the actual McDonald's brothers after visiting their single burger stand and having the idea of duplicating it so he could sell more milkshake machines.

My husky is acting like this right now. Though I am pretty sure I know what she wants. She wants her food bowl on my bed instead of getting up and going to it.
