Ignoring the fact they went from 4 to 8 clients.

You think the 3.2% is on the order of single digits of machines? You think 3.2% market share is 8 people?

Obviously you don’t. It’s 10s of thousands of machines and you exaggerated the actual situation so far it no longer made any sense.

I hate when people respond to a post with a little anecdote that is completely irrelevant to the original post.

God that’s so corporate-coded - instead of fixing your divisions so they are all profitable, just take your two successful divisions and squeeze them like you’re trying to get blood out of a stone.

There have been many times where people have tried to raise their child as a different gender than the child was assigned at birth, and the child 99% of the time identifies with the gender assigned at birth, at the same rate as the general cisgender population.

How many is “many”? 100? 1,000? 10,000? Where is the study on this?

No way lesbians are the saddest bitches there are.

I mean, there’s also a reason that Marxism-Leninism and Stalinism was historically referred to as “red fascism”: Soviet ultra-nationalism, fetishization of violence, authoritarianism. They were very cosy with the Nazis when it came to carving up Poland between them.

Yeah they’re internet trolls that picked up the mantle, it’s not like they’ve done the work do deal with their internal issues.

You could actually look and see that it’s firmly condemned.

Yeah but I’m doomer lolling so hard at the “is this brand new or was Russia always queerphobic”.

We’ve been warning about this for years, but they’ve been way too busy being too edgy and contrarian to notice.

Tankies tend to be hyper-nationalist. The USSR was hyper-nationalist.

Tankies tend to project their own Soviet ultra-nationalism onto Russia and larp like it’s the same thing.

French press is the only way I have to make coffee at home, and I make one every day.

It’s called humor, it’s not supposed to be taken literally.

Discovery also had hologram communication technology that I guess was also a secret? Starfleet went back to flatscreens for everything and didn’t use holograms again until the 24th century.

If it was just one thing, okay, but there were such numerous inconsistencies, it was like the writers and designers did not care about trek, they were writing a sci-fi show with the trek name slapped on top.

It’s totally possible to respect the heritage of old sci-fi - look at The Mandalorian and Andor - maintaining consistency with the old retro sci-fi aesthetic actually elevates them above what a modern redesign would have done.

Nobody else can tell that the end product is any different, but you know you’re different and special and that’s what matters.

No journalists on the ground found any indication of a mass casualty event on Tiananmen Square

ON Tiananmen Square. This is fascist-level wordplay. The same journalists found a massacre all around Tiananmen Square in the rest of Beijing.

no evidence that Chinese tanks actually killed anyone on 6/4

This is just a straight up lie. Lots of people were killed in Beijing. Just possibly not any within the tiny physical confines of Tiananmen Square itself.

supporters of Israel and the US are both “tankies.” Glad we agree, good talk!

Based af, the tankies who support Chinese and Russian imperialism are equivalent to the tankies who support US and Israeli imperialism.

More like $28 per hour, because you’re working 168 hour weeks not 40.

Yeahhhhhh, historically, the original Treks just did NOT understand how to properly utilize FEEEMAALE characters, from the writers to ahem the producers. coughfuckbermancough

TNG: awful writing for the women

DS9 and VOY: amazing writing, some of the best women characters in TV history

ENT: nosedive back to awful writing for women

DSC: awful writing for everyone

PIC: tiny bit of redemption for the women mistreated in TNG

LD&SNW: modern and consistently non-terronly writing

I don’t remember notable instances, I mean TNG’s smartest (non-synthetic) crew member and chief engineer was a black man with a visual disability.

What really aged badly from TNG was the rampant sexism, and how weirdly horny it was.

PL brought a trait system overhaul, cyberware overhaul, and combat overhaul that dramatically changed up the gameplay loop even in the core game.

The story was always amazingly crafted, but the game never warranted a second play through. Now it does.
