I got turned off my E:D group around the time Brian Thompson got Luigi’d. Someone shared a slightly spicy meme and got shut down so fucking hard by mods because “The CEO was just doing his job”. This was likewise a nominally leftist, feminist and very queer friendly discord, although not specifically commie.

I didn’t really have a point, just that you’re not alone. Add me in game if you like, though I’m rarely on these days. CMDR name is username.

Deadlands uses cards for some mechanics.

“Escape paycheck slavery, build passive income and regain sovereignty”

Bot is a YouTube finance bro grifter.

I miss 2000’s era Nokia. They had their flagship phones that turned a profit but also just did some truly weird shit purely to see if it caught on.

I have to wonder how much of the “criminals have easy access to guns” rhetoric is actually cooked up by the gun lobby, because the subtext feels like “so shouldn’t you, too?” I’m also seeing a fair bit of noise about Castle Doctrine around the place and it all just feels astroturfed.

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.

Be funny if this forced them to admit AI doesn’t work.

There’s a couple of Wip3Out games on PSP that I find as timeless and rewarding as the rest of the series.

Cool, I don’t need to watch media any more, I’ll just get the AI to do it for me. That leaves me so much more time to get work done. Oh, wait…

They’re paying for the creative process*

This whole document is so beautifully unhinged. I don’t know the actual story, but I like to imagine the ad consultants coming up with it on a three day coke fuelled bender, then coming down and just deciding to run with it anyway.

Yep

There’s a strait/straight joke in there somewhere but I’m not smart enough to make it.

If you use any diet tracking app, they’ll have that data. Any supermarket loyalty program can infer a good amount. Some can be inferred from location data (eg amount of time spent at a restaurant). Menulog, ubereats etc will track it as a matter of course. that’s just off the top of my head.

EDIT: I misread the question.

If you go up a level from the obvious interaction of marketing on food choices, there’s still a hell of a lot of corporate influence on the food environment. Your job, your rent and utilities determine your food budget, which limits your choices. Your job and commute also determines the amount of free time you have to cook. Your commute is controlled in part by car and fossil fuel industry. If you don’t drive, you’re limited to what you can reach and carry via public transport or bicycle infrastructure (both also gutted by car lobby). Supermarket corps determine where the stores are, what they stock, and how much it is. So you’ll find your choices limited by travel time, availabilit, and budget again. You can go up another level again and manufacturers and producers will have influence over (for example) the FDA, which determines safety standards of what you eat. So even if you consider yourself unpropagandised, corporations still control pretty much the entire food system and what you eat. Unless you’re living off-grid and growing everything yourself, pretty much every food decision you make is touched by a corporation. Even then, you’ll have to buy your seeds from somewhere.

You could probably just do this with GZDoom.

WOW that’s a throwback

Still on OG DooM community stuff when I get the chance. Which is rarely at the moment.

Silent these days. For a while I used the “black headcrab nearby” sound from HL2 as a text tone tho. Was fun watching people’s reactions to it.

Unreal Tournament

Terminal Velocity

I’m glad they kept the detachable controllers. Makes it much nicer to get actual work done on it without looking like a freak. I just hope they release an official keyboard dock for this one.
