Look at who you're replying to, and their posting history.

No, but I tend to disable a bunch of the categories. If it makes it hard to avoid BS/irrelevant/uninteresting/"fake" notifications, notification perms go away, or the whole app does, usually with a free one-star rating. (As if that realistically matters)

I love how kbin randomly errors trying to block shit. Super, super good.

I mean, just use encryption? A language would be security through obscurity at best, anyway.

N/A. All the "arguments" are stupid as fuck.

What, really? Why?

Most rich people inherit their wealth. The idea that rich people have earned any damn thing is more like the exception than the rule.

It's not a good thing, though. Twitter has always had issues, but the world's richest man getting his shit in a twist because of it, then shooting his mouth off and buying the damn thing, then running it into the ground... that's not awesome.

The only good thing about it is that after running his big, dumb yap, he got forced to carry through with the purchase. Anything else is just Money Wins as usual.

Huh? Admittedly XML is a joke, but if that's not it...

GTA IV was a major letdown coming from SA. Also GTAO is a bad joke. It's always been shit, from the terrible architecture and netcode allowing rampant cheating, to the ages-long wait times for the simplest thing requiring matchmaking, to the "economy" in MP being completely ridiculous, to the shart cards.

I've only played SA, IV and V to any real degree. V's singleplayer is fine, but it's not like Rockstar is infallible - even when Take-Two is not twisting their arm to make it even shittier. Take-Two is a whole different story.

People spend one-third of their lives asleep. What if employees could work during that time … in their dreams?

Great The Onion stuff. Hard to make this shit up.

They should stick to satire, this is just straight up true. Even the "power user" tricks barely work anymore

There’s painkillers and pills against fever but they should be used only if absolutely necessary.

They're fine, at least if your pain or fever bothers you. If you're thinking about "fever as natural defense", it's been shown IIRC that treating the fever with over the counter drugs does not harm you or prolong the course of the illness.
