That’s what I meant though. He was distracted by fawning-over Feyd, and let spice production lag so badly for so long that the Navigators and Emperor had to bring it to his attention.

Baron Harkonnen was an Olympic-level athlete and genius until the ghonnasyphilherplaids got him, and even then, he was still at least smart. Good thing he backed the wrong player(the Emperor), and was distracted enough to not reign-in Raban until it was too late, or his serial-killer ass might have survived the story…
When Trump falls, the harder questions to answer will be about how he’s lived this long. Absurdist levels of greed and incompetence, elevated by inertia and luck alone.
Auto-repost-bots are far from anything new. Did you check with the mods of the communities in question?
1·13 days agoHad you seen it before this post? I hadn’t. Same likely applies to a bunch of people who think its(the white girl part) awesome(better than the original - I am NOT of such opinion) and can’t wait to share it with their friends. Making it part of rage-bait just amplifies the Streisand Effect.
If "art"upsets you so much, the thing to do is promote good art instead, or do literally anything else with your day. Maybe discuss the most, or any of, recent shootings of black teenagers by cops over a water bottle or panty-hose or some other stand-in we all know amounts to Cop+“excuse”+minority=media trying to spin it and thousands of “white people suck” memes.
There are so many of those memes and events that are true and verified from end-to-end and back that anyone promoting the made-up gibberish like this one should be called-out for what they are actually doing - intentionally distracting others and discrediting the people who really care.
“Such and such minority and anyone who really cares is just sooo upset that verifying things is an un-due burden” has no place on the internet - it paints them as dumb, ignorant, likely corrupt, and serves only to drive-away anyone who can be driven-away.
To get to the point where Counter-Revolutionaries are the only ones left to purge, over 90% of the people who make revolutions happen according to all the revolutions that reached that point, you first need their help with the revolution.
If you want to avoid a spot next to me on the wall, maybe don’t promote the cults of personality that substitute for ideals once they get the chance. Skin color or the right in-group won’t save you then.
You’re literally promoting specific fan-art, spreading it far beyond what it ever would have reached otherwise, in your efforts to “end” racism. If anyone’s watering down existing racism, its you and people who act as you do.
Do you have any earthly idea how many of those “people” are bots now? Let yourself get worked-up by engagement-bait if you insist, but no-one-else is obligated to check-out places that are well-known for being places one goes to piss-off others or find something to get pissed-off about. Your “hobby” of engaging with and spreading it without substantiation vs reality doesn’t make you “more aware”, it just makes you part of the problem.
I’ve seen so many different versions of this in the last week. Blonde chick was the only one I’ve seen next to the original, like at least this one almost got the “credit where it’s due” part right, but generally, I prefer the thicker, older-looking versions I’ve seen, even though the whole premise just makes me think “yep, it’s hard to go wrong with skin and ink”.
Gamers? I didn’t even play this one. I never would have made the connection with the orignial without the side-by-side version, but I’m glad to get to see it again.
5·17 days agoIME, rentals had shit quality, unless you were one of the first few people to rent that movie. Still watchable, mind you, but the software for ripping back then would hang on the mildest errors.
My guess was that most of the high quality torrents back then were ripped by people who bought or stole New-in-box discs, or employees at stores that rented or sold them, and don’t forget Screeners.
1·19 days agoI always knew I would get uploaded in the singularity. “Mostly because the normies decided its un-ethical to let me die” was not on my Bingo card though. Oh lookie, a shortcut to the Torment Nexus!!
3·19 days agoIf it had 5G, I might bother, aftter toying with it as-is to see if I could just live with it.
Otoh, the way their description reads, it wouldn’t surprise me if it also filters client traffic in hot-spot mode, which would be a bridge too far to me.

6·22 days agoIt’s actually not that hard to figure-out which file in the torrent they give you is the one book you want, by which I mean, I don’t recall exactly how, but my dumb-ass figured it out and did it a few times.
If you didn’t know, you don’t have to download and seed every file in a given torrent. In fact, a lot of torrents seem “broken” because .nfo’s, .txt’s, Extras and/or Samples aren’t being seeded.
When Asahi started, the M1 chips were so good they might as well have been the only ARM-based-that-can-run-x86/x64-code-CPUs in-town. Last I checked, the M-series were still consistetly near the top of the stack of such chips, and look even better when you account for price.
Your argument works even better versus the Snapdragon X, but that’s Microsoft’s current fav, so … ?
Thanks for spelling-out the stupid for me. My brain was hung-up on the correct way to un-fuck logic I would rather not understand, for a moment. “Too stupid for words” came to mind, and the phrase just sorta … hung out, wasting time.
TF did I just read? Is that for real?
4·1 month agoYou had me until “out of office” … “from a great height” was right there!!
I don’t goon, I don’t like the gameplay for most of them, and I only play trash games on my phone, no-where else. Have you SEEN the install sizes of the mobile versions of these games? I don’t think I’ve seen ONE that didn’t leave me wondering why the developers bothered.
When I’ve got Human Resource Machine, Really Bad Chess, Wordle, Sudoku and more, do I really need 30gb for 2B’s enhanced jiggle physics?
Half the units in Europe would be named for “heroes” that are war-criminals in another EU state’s histories if:
I’m half with Zelensky on this one and half, let’s see if they even survive the current conflict before quibbling with allies.
Passing resolutions? I could see it if the unit took-up a logo like “for Volyn!!”, but the fact is the same units that are heroes or villians or complicit in one battle or theater have played different roles in others.
I would say all I see from across the pond is the kind of wypypo shit that makes me glad the US is a melting-pot with actual racial tensions we realize we need to work on, but considering our issues with statues of fucking Confederate statues and looking at who is in office, I’mma just sit down now.
