El Pollo Diabolo

@Lancifers_Ghost @RupertLowe10 Because Asian has more positive connotations, as you associate the term with East Asia. That's literally the only reason.

@RupertLowe10 How is this even a thing? Asians come from the Pacific rim, and have awesome, ancient cultures and modern civilizations. The people you're talking about aren't "Asian". Why does your media call them that?

Stop calling them ‘Asian’ ‘grooming gangs’. They are not Japanese. Call them what they are. Predominately Pakistani Muslim rape gangs.

@DURRRRRRRRRP @AshaLogos It's the typical female way of arguing. >a random phrasing has a clear meaning within the context of the statement >a possible contrarian meaning makes zero sense in the context >insist that it is this contrarian meaning and dismiss the entire argument on principle.

@AshaLogos I don't think the "county lines" thing is a technicality, I think it's a willful misinterpretation. The non slang interpretation is about borders. The slang interpretation is apparently about calling someone. Do the brits not use the term "over the phone"?

This report is filled with details of a quarter million innocent British children who've faced the most horrific acts imaginable, and this woman starts out her video *giggling*, because she believes she's found a technicality that might embarrass her political opponents.. ....

@Brother_Spes @OF_Schroedinger Er war 2008 bis 2013 Generalstaatsanwalt und es wurden in dieser Zeit 13.000 einschlägige Verfahren eingestellt. Natürlich nicht alle von ihm persönlich, aber in seiner Verantwortung.

@OF_Schroedinger Wie gehen lassen?

Fassen wir zusammen: 250.000 Mädchen wurden systematisch vergewaltigt (und das ist noch eine gewaltige Untertreibung) 87% der Täter waren Muslime Britische Polizei hat es sogar unterstützt/vertuscht Starmer hat 13.000 der Vergewaltiger einfach gehen lassen

@graubss1 @hachi_8sp It used to mean just Live-Action Roleplaying, the people wearing wizard robes and throwing tennis balls in the woods. It's now used for internet-roleplaying too, especially people pretending to be fans despite only watching letsplays on youtube or wanting to change the IP.

@hachi_8sp tf is a larp?

it's larpin' down now

@blurp2311 @HughElMariscal They have a combat patrol box and several advanced units. Sororitas is the only army I play and the mini situation could be worse.

@HughElMariscal i though they were cool and saw the tom and don, they honeslty showed me they are a lot more cool of a faction then i thought, if they actually released models and care for them i would probably go and play warhammer again.

The only people who hate the Sororitas, have either, never played a Sororitas army, read a Sororitas novel or are part of “that”particular group. Also that ending felt grimderp instead of grimdark; IMO

@ToxicScorpion22 @Pirat_Nation Just don't buy any remake and especially remaster ever. It's always a demake and no company should get away with selling the same game twice.

@Pirat_Nation Vote with your wallets DO NOT BUY the inferior Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. The original black flag is WAY BETTER.

Ubisoft says the story in Assassin’s Creed Shadows didn’t connect with players the way it hoped. To address that, the game’s final free update, called Black Tides, adds about two hours of new story content and gives Naoe and Yasuke what Ubisoft calls the “real ending” to their adventure. The update wraps up loose ends, improves some criticized story elements, and sets up the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. Ubisoft says it listened to player feedback and hopes this final chapter delivers a more satisfying ending

@GT6951264338004 @AngelaBelcamino In theory yes, but Bluesky has the same admin-enforced biases and contingency algorithms that Twitter had before it became X. You can publicly fantasize about diddling minors, but you can't criticize migration without a shadowban.

Explain it to me like I’m 5: Why is Bluesky exempt from the UK’s social media ban?

@KumratArt Purely by that angle, Tau strength would be entirely dependant on Empire weakness. This ignores that there is an objective component to their strength, they managed to defeat Hive Fleet Gorgon after all.

The rise of the T’au in 40k is interesting to me because a civilization that would’ve been swept aside during the Great Crusade now stands as a rising galactic power. They are the literal proof of humanity’s decay. It’s so tragic in a way but I enjoy the stories about it.

@OERRBlog Widerspricht Quark damit nicht der Arbeitsministerin? Das Bild widerlegt ja die These vom Einheitsbraun vor 2015. Oder geben sie offen zu, dass das eine netflixartige nachträgliche Einfärbung ist, um Leute postfaktisch zu validieren?

@BazusoSaint @For_Macragge Because red is a cooler color than blue to begin with, and it's pretty assuming of GW to believe they will somehow lose sales if the colors don't match.

@For_Macragge I really don’t get the issue. It’s not for the veteran hobbyists, it’s for the potential new hobbyists that you’d want to market your INTRODUCTORY sets as the same chapter that’s shown on every single non-chapter specific box.

Hearing rumours that Warhammer Stores have been told that they have to paint their Armageddon boxes as Ultramarines. r/blood angels are taking it well.

@fennomanne @sump_scum_4evah Even Space Marines aren't exactly standardized. I love playing Raven Guard, but I need the helmets and can in fact not just paint the Ultramarine minis black.

@sump_scum_4evah I think GW is starting to regret ever keeping it in lore how varied Guard regiments are, instead of standardizing everything like Space Marines. It made sense back in the day when it was less about selling models and more about tabletop gaming.

@sparbuchfeinde Wie immer macht es Japan perfekt vor: Alles ab 250km hat Flugrouten. Osaka-Tokyo praktisch stündlich bedient, man kann 20min vorher durch die Secueity gehen, große moderne Flieger mit Wlan, und sogar billiger als Shinkansen.

Unpopuläre Meinung: Wir brauchen einen massiven Push für Inlandsflüge und sollten sämtliche Steuern darauf abschaffen. Fliegen ist Wohlstand. Keine Staus, keine kaputten Straßen, Entlastung für unser marodes Schienennetz. Alle gewinnen.

@IGN They made the game black and gay, isn't that usually an automatic 9/10 with you guys?

A remake that pulls this RPG classic into the modern era visually and doesn’t touch much else. bit.ly/4uFD4rb

@PBrady77 @itzRex You are arguing against an entirely different paradigm of justice. In hood culture challenging someone to touch you and being touched in response is such a blow to your honor that you can only respond with deadly force. They legitimately can't not see it as self-defense.

Why would he be granted a retrial? Literally ALL of the evidence says he planned ut out and acted on it. You cannot claim self defense when all the other person did was light push you and your reaction was to kill said person. Now if all Karmelo Anthony did was throw hands then you would have more of a claim for self defense. However Karmelo literally sat there while being asked to leave saying “touch me and see what happens.” While reaching into his backpack.

🚨 BREAKING KARMELO ANTHONY HAS FILED NOTICE OF APPEAL FOR 5TH CIRCUIT! He will more than likely be granted a retrial ! BIG W 👏🏾

@KappEpsiThet I was thinking "why is P4 Sayoko in the woke tier" and then remembered she sleeps with a high-schooler.

Persona character tier list based on how woke I think they would be.

@ShitpostRock2 "Omg why did you catalogue so many links about such a small issue, that's so deranged and unhinged that your point is disproven on principle. That means my point is proven on principle"

''nobody woke complained about Stellar Blade'' You guys lie as easily as you breathe

@Sarkiniem1 @tafphorisms It's not the content, it's the fact she asked ChatGPT and copy-pasted the answer because she doesn't bother with his situation. The dash in the third message is an extra long dash (emdash), people don't use it as it's not on the phone keyboard but LLMs do.

@tafphorisms Actually you can. I got friendzoned, I tried a new tactic. I went full on "No hard feelings at all, let's be friends then* Two weeks later I got a message where she said she likes me romantically.

I’m losing my mind people don’t see it

@Knights_Path @Slitcooterstein Will there be a toggle to turn on/off Morrowind-style notifications about killing essential npcs? They absolutely have a place, but I personally would want to find out the hard way.

@Slitcooterstein Current plan is to make every NPCs killable

In Knight's Path, you won't be able to date everyone. But those 3 you can, will be worth it.

@vAnHuNt17 @DeutscherSchfe3 Der Fachbegriff ist "das Langhaus", vom Langhaus in frühen präpatriarchalen Gesellschaften, die matriarchal ausgelegt waren. Das konnten Forscher bei diversen Indianerstämmen noch im 19. Jahrhundert live studieren.

@DeutscherSchfe3 Immer wieder zeigen besonders Frauen in dieser Position eine ekelhafte Arroganz und Inkompetenz.

Absolutes Kino im Bundestag 🔥 20 Sekunden nach Beginn seiner Rede unterbricht Bundestagsvizepräsidentin Lindholz (CSU) den AfD-Abgeordneten Frohnmaier und ermahnt ihn, beim Thema zu bleiben. Markus fragt Andrea daraufhin, ob sie das ernst meint, und sie bejaht es.

@Devon_Eriksen_ Wouldn't that just essentially be gish-gallopping?

This is the Weinersmith Fallacy. It works like this: 1. Problems are easier to explain than solutions. 2. So let's explain a bunch of problems, rapid fire, while ignoring the solutions. 3. That way, we can make anything sound impossible. 4. Better yet, anyone who wants argue will have to use more words than we do, and expend more time and effort. Like so: Look, I've torn down plenty of complex mechanical devices, and this "gun" idea is fundamentally flawed. First, you're trying to contain and direct a controlled explosion inside a tiny metal tube. On paper that sounds cool, but in reality the pressures spike to tens of thousands of PSI in microseconds. The barrel will deform or rupture instantly — we've all seen what happens when you overpressure a cheap pipe bomb. Second, the projectile has to be perfectly centered and spin-stabilized while accelerating from 0 to supersonic in a fraction of a second. Any tiny imperfection in machining, propellant burn rate, or alignment and the thing will tumble or keyhole immediately. Good luck maintaining that precision after the first few shots heat the barrel up and wear the rifling. Third, the whole system relies on a series of moving parts (hammer, sear, extractor, ejector) that have to function flawlessly while being slammed by recoil and fouling from combustion byproducts. In the field, dirt, water, or carbon buildup will jam it in seconds. This is why mechanical watches already struggle with reliability — and those don't involve explosions. Finally, you're asking a human to control something that produces massive muzzle blast, flash, and recoil, all while trying to aim accurately under stress. Human reaction times and hand tremors make consistent hits beyond 50 yards basically impossible at scale. Engineers have been promising "practical firearms" for centuries and it never quite works out. The challenges are insurmountable with real materials and physics. Nice concept for video games though. It sounds plausible, but we know it's total nonsense because guns visibly do work. They're all over the place, they're quite reliable, and you can easily learn to hit stuff at half a mile. Same thing for computers in space. We know they work because we already have them. What do these people think satellites are? Containers for little spacemen with zero-gravity abacuses? And who is the all-time known-universe champion of putting satellites in space? SpaceX, that's who. The problem of putting data centers in space isn't the problem of putting computers in space. It's just the problem of putting more computers in space. And while scaling up often has its own technical hurdles, those hurdles are by definition already solved and understood. The remaining challenge is not solving the technical problems in the first place, it's keeping costs down. The worst thing about this is that Jerry isn't this dumb. He's just hoping that you are. He doesn't really think that SpaceX is going to launch a giant crate of rack-mount servers, sourced from Dell, into orbit, then shake their fists at the sky screaming "Curse you, Jean-Bapiste Fourier! If only we had read a thermodynamics textbook, ever, in our lives!" No. He knows better. He's just playing the Puddlefish because he has Musk Derangement Syndrome. And as for data-center satellites, well, probably the reason that everyone wants to put them in space instead of Antarctica is that the power problem, which space solves, looks a lot harder than the cooling problem, which Antarctica solves.
