- Comment on Microsoft Still Can't Say How Much the ROG Xbox Ally X Will Cost Due to "Macro-Economic" Conditions, Despite Announcing Release Date and Availability Details(Leaked prices $549.99/$899 for Ally/Ally ) 3 days ago:
I got the “not prey” bit and the Predator movie franchise when I bought it (if the first thing I thought of was the other definition, I probably would have bought a different laptop), but I’d completely forgotten about Alienware, the Alien vs Predator angle is kinda funny.
Still, at some point you think they’d go for a rebrand, because you don’t want people to think about your line of gaming laptops and go “wait… yuck”.

I’ve got an old-ish Acer Predator and thankfully it doesn’t have quite that level of dogshit branding but I did have to go into the bios to disable the boot screen and obnoxiously loud boot up noise. I like the metal and the RGB isn’t that bad, but if I buy another gaming laptop it’s probably not going to be from the Predator line since that seems to be all NVIDIA and I use Linux now, lol. Also who the hell thought Predator was an appropriate name for any commercial product, it’s pretty yikes.
(Also my laptop has always been an RGB space heater but that seems to be a problem with gaming laptops in general).

I’m on Jerboa and spoiler tags work on here, it’s a very plain implementation though, just

and you tap on the arrow or the text to see the spoiler. I like it but it might not be that obvious you can do that.

I’m still angry about CTR. I was so hyped for that remake but didn’t buy immediately at launch so I’d avoid the launch bugs… and then they added the microtransactions. I will not pay for a game that has microtransactions, so I haven’t played it. The originals are still a blast though.

Up until probably about a decade ago I would occasionally go into small shops that used dial up to process credit card payments. There may still be some places doing that but I haven’t noticed it in a while.

Usually ghost bikes are solid white, that’s kinda odd people thought orange ones were ghost bikes and not just abandoned.

I definitely phrased that poorly. Getting hair plugs isn’t insecure, but often it’s insecurity that drives men to get it and definitely causes them to not talk about it afterwards.

Yes you are, but it also shows a problem with the AI. A human knows what you meant and how it happened. An AI that lives up to even half of the hype would also consider the context and be able to guess what you meant.

I think shoe lifts are more common than you’d think, we’ve had a couple of major politicians accused of wearing them, but it’s kinda like hair implants, you’ve gotta be pretty insecure to get them in the first place (I’ve tried shoe lifts, they’re awful over maybe an inch), so they’re too insecure to talk about it either.

Mark Waid’s run on FF was great, and I’d love to see a TV show with that kind of vibe, but I’m not hopeful Disney could do it well (cries in Matt Fraction Hawkeye fan)

Hackers predate the Internet. Phone phreaking, like the Captain Crunch whistle is basically the origin of hacking and hacker culture.
But your larger point is valid and there was probably more than a little cocaine involved with thinking up that story.
