when we would go to scan a product it just told us what spot it goes in

If the website could just tell me what aisle things are in then I wouldn’t care. (Some stores do this, not all.)

I believe there is also a medical treatment that consists of wiping out your white blood cells entirely so your body has to make new ones.

"Have you tried turning the immune system off then on again?’

A million years ago some asshole fish decided to crawl on land and now I have to deal with IT problems.

It’s all just a bunch of rythm dancing of switches going off and on.

I want this rhythm game now.

Turning it off and on again is a universal truth. A defibrillator works by turning the heart off then on again.

(You don’t defib a patient who is flat lining. You defib to fix an erratic heart beat.)

“Fuck” can be translated to “disregard”: "Fuck that.’

What is the entertainment from the meme? Is it that “Auto-translate did this”? Or is it “This is All Star as if it was a passage from the Bible”?

If it’s the latter (which I personally found amusing) then why are you getting your panties is a twist that it wasn’t a computer that did this?

I used to have one like that as well, most baffling design decision I’ve ever seen

Edit: Clarification:

You wouldn’t steal a casino!

Diablo 3 had a rainbow in it somewhere, clearly woke garbage.

Tetris is Russian propaganda that teaches children doing good work is pointless as it will just be taken away and you’ll be forced to do it again until you do it half assed.

Super Mario Bros promotes the consumption of psychedelics.

See: every RPG ever.

Satisfactory promotes a good work ethic, no problem here.

We don’t need to be talking about the US election in every thread…

Obviously that steam guy was probably coming from a place of bad faith

The Steam forums actively encourage this kind of bad faith behavior:

1. when a post gets a new reply it’s moved to the top of the forums. So as long as people are engaging with a post, even if it’s just to make fun of a bigot, it keeps getting pushed back to the top.

2. Users can “award” posts for various things (helpfull, cool, funny, etc) and users have taken to giving ‘Clown’ awards as a way of making fun of posts. Whenever one of your posts gets an award, you are given Steampoints you can use in the Steam cosmetics store.

This results in every game having bad faith posts “complaining” about wokeness so that people will make fun of them with Clown awards as a way to farm Steampoints. The developer bringing attention to it just helps them get more.

Companies will charge what the market will bear. If Netflix increases prices and lowers quality and people keep paying the higher price for lower quality, then Netflix will keep doing it. It’s up to consumers to not pay for enshittification in order to stop it.

So far, the best system we’ve come up with as a species is heavily regulated capitalism with strong social safety nets

And for quite a lot of human history the best system we had come up with was Feudalism, until we started doing something better.

Just because Capitalism is the best we’ve come up with so far doesn’t mean we should just accept it, or that 1000 years from now people won’t look at the Capitalism with the same disdain we look at Feudalism.

Until it stops increasing profits.
