If your only argument is “I deserve things that took a lot of time and effort for free” then you aren’t getting much sympathy from me.

Well, the user is posting from the piracy instance

I just have trouble believing that the probably thousands of people both government and private involved in such programs that no doubt exist across every major power on earth (unless for whatever reason UFOs choose to only fly around and crash into the continental US) have all managed to stay quiet about something of this magnitude for decades (or damn near 100 years if his claim of it starting in the 1930s is to be believed)

Not to mention that, simultaneously, the government(s) is powerful enough to successfully suppress this information for a hundred years, while some how also failing to keep somebody from testifying about it in a publicly televised congressional hearing

Get back to me when we've corrected the last 30 years of wage stagnation too

Being able to show off a game or watch a movie with friends (without needing to mess with Virtual Audio Cables so there's no weird echo from their voices) in as little as 2 mouse clicks is the single killer feature Discord has that will make it incredibly hard for me to replace

I wish they would stop calling standard capacity rifle magazines "high capacity" to try to play them up as being in some way unusual

10 rounds isn't even really standard for pistols, basically every full size pistol comes with a magazine larger than that (for reference, the most common US police duty pistols, the Glock 19 and 22, come from the factory with 15 round magazines), smaller than that and you're getting into compacts that are meant to be more easily concealable (which itself has its own risk)

I'm fine with restrictions that make sense, but trying to say that full size pistols (with magazines >10 rounds) are "high capacity" and "not commonly used for self defense" is just patently false

Worst internal connector by far is dual USB3, the cable is so thick and unwieldly, I always feel like the pressure from trying to bend it is going to rip the header off the board

Sometimes I finish showering, and I was so heavily on autopilot while thinking about other things that I have no memory of if I actually washed my body or not, I just trust that I did

It always feels difficult to justify spending so much on other brands when a Samsung phone from 2 years ago will have reduced to a quarter of its retail price simply due to their oversaturation of the used market
