  lol, the data breach part is super real. Them actually searching for it for your authentication isn’t.

  Never not fucking ever will I ever upload any ID to any internet anything. I don’t like using my bank card online. Or in person. Cash is king baby, all else is bullshit and giving fuckers new and exciting ways to steal your shit

  So sad to me that craigslist, or even just fucking yard sales, and cash seem to be going down in use in the states. Cash is king, baby

  jesus fucking tell me about it. When the internet was the domain of the nerd doing cool shit because it was cool, instead of… ugh

  And just for the record, passenger in a warthog was my FAVORITE position in the truck. In Halo 1.

  Sure, it’s less effective, but it’s way more accurate. Actually feels like riding shotgun, where you can’t see everything, and you sure as shit don’t have a stable firing platform. Super fun. In game.

  The number of of times the passenger with the rocket launcher murked our own damn selves was… More than one. lol

  Did you know, you can basically feed the warthog rocket fuel? Unfortunately, the speed boost usually kills the occupants

  One of the best I still somehow remember vaguely:

  Down to 1v1, happens while T is planting. He pulls knife, bangs it on stuff. CT pulls knife, runs in.

  They dance in the zone, and T just dodges and gets close and dodges and gets close and milks time till the bomb won. So good.

  Blood Gulch, obviously

  We tried ghosts, but they’re so much harder to tip it didn’t really work. Though the matches where someone tried a ghost vs warthog were usually pretty good.

  get murked. ghost back out to your old hog, get yeeted, lure the opponent into the trap in the cave, heave a well placed grenade, and steal his hog. Murder the fuck for his troubles

  Also so good from back in the day it got turned into a forced standard on some servers: Down to 1V1 in CS? Knife fight about it

  So fucking good. sometimes the bomb won. sometimes one guy was an asshole and shot the other guy

  This sounds great

  Jesus christ

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Games you played inside video games.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Demolition Derby in Halo.

  No shooting, you get in the Hog and wreck the other fucker out of their rig, then run them over. Frag grenades sometimes legal, depending on who you were playing with.

  Played a 4 player variant where the passenger got a rocket launcher-no gunner

  Why does everyone in the US card everyone over something ostensibly about age?

  It’s never been about age.

  I’ve seen a seventy year old man with a foot long white beard get carded and refused, while he was stone cold sober.

  Do you think he can’t handle his liquor? He’s seventy. He knows what it does.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a lot of bars/restaurants that do.

  I have literally been refused service because the only ID I had is a passport, and those barcodes wouldn’t scan into their system.

  It’s Papers, please, and it’s fucking bullshit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m 1000% against this age verification bullshit, not only because of the privacy and data reasons, but also because getting carded in a bar or at a store is also bullshit.

  It Is Papers, please.

  It’s Never a question of if you’re old enough, it’s a question of “Do I think you’re human enough?”

  And more often than is reasonable, the answer is no, they don’t think you’re a person, who should be able to spend their money as they like.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WHY???⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Incredible.

  When my drill bits are super, super dull, they make smooth triangles. Like triangular shaped holes, with no true points or flat edges. If I get crooked while laying on it and drilling (not uncommon with a dull-ass bit) two lobes will stand out more clearly than the side I’m not leaning towards.

  Not hexagons, and sure as hell not cones.

  Now if they’re sharp, it’s just a fucking hole. Circular. Like they’re supposed to be

  Buy me new drill bits. for science

  So, the articles are old, but chlorin e6 mixed with insulin and DMSO in saline gives a temporary boost to nightvision.

  Sounds fucking awesome, and the ingredients all seem fairly easy to acquire. No commercial product, but why would there be?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The ability to be spontaneous in life is directly proportion to the size of your bank account⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Went on a spontaneous trip very recently.

  Spent a little more money than I’m comfy with.

  Truck sprung some issues.

  Saw some things I would never have seen otherwise. Some beautiful things, creatures, happenings, and places.

  I’ll fix the damn truck. Make the money back (or so)

  Is it risk, or are you just being a pussy? Yeah, the human world sucks, but you don’t need all the garbage they sell you, and there’s worthwhile experiences you won’t get with your nose stuck down to the grindstone.

  I bet you risk your life, limbs, and liberty every single day driving into work.

  I’ve had multiple friends die driving. They never thought THAT was a risk.

  Go somewhere you don’t plan to. It aint gonna last forever
