Photoshop has existed for years. It’s no different than a student in 2010 being shocked at the horrors of man and trying to figure out how it could be faked with a computer. People have denied the Holocaust for generations!

I think I lost this analogy. What are the condiments in this metaphor?

My reflex tears burn my eyes like pepper spray

Yes and it’s pretty obvious how. I’m just waiting for my overlords to tell me exactly why it’s obvious.

Funded by conservatives and tax dollars too! They pick up illegal immigrants at the border and give them free plane tickets to large cities, then complain about how illegal immigrants are getting free rides into the country.

God damn it’s been so long since I’ve heard anyone say that name

That’s new enough for me, considering I’ve probably forgot most of the content since I played this what, ten years ago? More? God damn I was a kid when this came out and now I’m nearly 30

Fucking awful in Montana. Even in cities att barely gets me data once a week. Satellite would almost be necessary in rural America

I think that’s the game for you. My friends and I like to hang out, search for treasure, solve puzzles, and work together to bring down ghost ships. We don’t have any interest in sinking a real players ship, or running from a group of teenagers shouting slurs at us while they try to sink ours.

It’s a fun game when I don’t encounter anyone, but I spend most of my time just outrunning other players trying to kill me for almost no loot

I think it’s just a shit stirring paper to say “look, here’s something that has zero observational evidence to its existence and look how ridiculous it sounds. Dark matter also has zero observational evidence, so why is that not ridiculous?” Which I’m not sure I agree with, but based on the faaar stretches he makes in the paper and the comments by the author later, that’s what I gather.

Please share! I fell out of contact with my friends there over the pandemic and heard nothing about this.

Ah I see! You see I am also American and have an automatic, but don’t have the funds or space for boats, caravans, or horses. I definitely did not know that about the torque converter, so thank you for that info!

I guess I just always assumed that those with the money and land for those activities you listed are wealthy enough to be in the extreme minority, but the way you say this makes me think my friends across the pond have a different perspective. Perhaps I am also in a bit of a bubble, having grown up in and only talk to people in a similar economic class.

What do you find people want to tow? I’m often at a loss when people bring this up because I’ve never once had a moment in my life where I was disappointed by the lack of towing capacity of my small car

What mods do you use? They mostly seem cosmetic when I look

The home button? Like you don’t spend time in the home menu of your phone?

I also use square. I don’t think I could use a smartphone that has a different layout anymore. But my first smartphone was a Windows phone, so it’s engrained in me.

Literally the only reason I use android is because of custom launchers and the ability to use a file explorer. Everything else is just the same

My phone also exclusively recommends pictures of me and my ex partner. The icon on my home screen is always her, every time I open the app at the top it shows “memories” albums of just pictures of her, etc. It already compiles photos of her face, why can’t I just select “don’t show this again” or something?

Yeah this company was owned by the government already
