Hey wait! That’s capitalism!

They switched their backend and you might need to clear your DNS cache in order for it to resolve properly

Whoosh

Communism is when you own nothing lol

TikTok does a few things that are on the more malicious side. Obfuscating code is a sign that they don’t want people reading into what the app actually does.

It is popular, but so is TEMU. And eBay.

I don’t use TikTok often, and it is not allowed to run in the background. I will never install TEMU.

I was replying to the claim of “voluntarily installing some of the worst spyware”.

TikTok isn’t great, but it’s hardly the “worst spyware”.

Here is a comparison of actual spyware threats and different apps.

Here is the report itself regarding TEMU and how it actually IS spyware.

Chakra Attack!

These damn radical lefts! They are trying to take your beer away!

/s in case someone is actually that dumb

Now do one with a GI Joe PSA

Remember folks, it’s not okay to (jokingly) threaten violence against things like the NRA convention or the Vatican. Please save your violent threats for judges and jury members of your favorite criminally-charged politicians. Thank you.

Right. Many are hitting with the “it should have been handled in private” line, and it’s kind of annoying. Journalists report on things, and GN did just that. Reported on an issue that has been gaining in public discussion over time. This deserved transparency, and I hope that having it put out there will help LMG/LTT fix their shit. I’m sure I can speak for most of us in saying that we WANT LMG/LTT to SUCCEED. We want to see them produce quality content. But they can’t do that with accurate information right now, despite their public desire to provide that.

There’s a snake in my corn!

LTT: says they want more accuracy, so they build a whole fucking lab for it.

Also LTT: puts bad data into the video anyway because time

That’s literally enough said. It’s not an attack on LMG, it’s pointing out legitimate concerns about LMGs internal processes because these easy to catch errors are getting through all the time.

They test a water block prototype on a card it wasn’t designed for, and then review it as a finished product with the bad data.

It’s a pattern over a long period of time that has been called out by the community. GN is fully right to be putting this out there. Even if you disagree with Steve’s assessment, he’s right to be pointing out things he has concerns with.

His existence is justified by the fact that he was included in the game. Sorry you don’t like the character, you’re free to just leave him at the camp or murder him at the start of the game.

You described two extremes as examples of parties he wouldn’t fit into, but conveniently left out neutral groups. God forbid if we have nuance and humanity in our playthroughs by being more complicated than the hero or villain archetype. I have him in my party because he’s a rogue, and his ability to assassinate people and pick locks helps me focus on not doing those things.

It just seems so harsh to distill his character down to “creepy rapist”, especially without even scratching the surface on his backstory.

I would imagine a vampire would sneakily attempt to drink my blood at night. That’s kinda their whole thing. How that equates to being a rapist is beyond me.

It’s an overall game setting, so yes. Thankfully you don’t have to worry about making the choice before starting

I play with it off, because I prefer to not have my rolls messed with in either direction. I don’t personally want to play with it giving me an artificial bonus and then likely dumping on me the next time I roll.

As someone else stated, if you don’t know what you’re doing keep it on for the sake of gameplay. Otherwise turn it off if you don’t want it

I personally don’t mind spoilers, but I know there are others out there that don’t want them. I agree with you, keep spoilers out of the title and let people decide if they want to see it

It means you got an L (loss) and ratioed (higher count than the initial post you’re commenting on).

Also L + ratio + you fell off

See if the emergency vet accepts CareCredit. You can apply for it and use it same day. They should have a thing at the front desk that will tell you how to apply.

If you apply and are denied, see if they will work with you on it and explain that you were denied.
