Why does that make no sense? He has debts to pay, can’t cover them, and so his assets are sold at auction to pay them off. Same thing happens to people every day via civil forfeiture.

But that makes no sense. It’s an auction. There’s a time limit. It’s not an acquisition. You’re being forced to sell something.

Wait a second. A judge blocked the Onion from buying the site at auction because… he thinks it should have sold for more? My brother in Christ, do you understand what an auction is?!

Same tbh

I don’t know about truly NSFW, but I’ve known a few firehouses whose crew pose for calendar pictures and then use the proceeds for a party or expenses. Maybe call your local fire station?

What the hell, that sounds like an amazing day.

I mean yes. It’s very possible to miss. I guess I’m flabbergasted that someone who would engage in this kind of vigilante justice (they always think they’re doing the right thing) would be so incompetent as to not be able to hit their target when they’re directly adjacent.

SteamDB says Rimworld, but I’m almost certain it’s actually Fallout: NV, as the Nexus launcher at one point bypassed Steam and so those hours aren’t represented. I have about 1100 hours in Rimworld, but probably closer to 3000 in Fallouts 3 and NV.

Lol I somehow completely forgot about Guild Wars 2. Pretty sure my age in that game is over 2 years of active playtime.

How the fuck do you miss at point-blank range when your target is lying on the ground? I guess he’s lucky that this fuckwit was completely incompetent on top of being insane.

Honestly, being willing to jump to a new platform is possibly the most effective way to stop platforms from fucking you over too hard.

And most importantly - there isn’t millions of dollars spent to market it to people. You have to go out of your way to learn about Mastodon or federation in general, and as you say, their reputations precede them.

The Amazon reviews thing I assume is referring to Fakespot, which Mozilla bought some time ago.

But I’m confused about their “AI’ed it up” comment because from the very beginning Fakespot was using ML to determine the tone of reviews and whether or not they were lying about the product/paid reviews by the seller.

True and true.

Biden’s forgiven the loans that he has the power to forgive. Judges and the House have blocked most of his loan forgiveness moves.

If we can allocate billions of dollars to Israel, we can certainly forgive some of Ukraine’s loans.

You really haven’t thought this through. What happens if I email you a bunch of illegal pictures? Guess we’re both going to jail.

The good old Nazi Germany plan - get your rich cronies to pay for everything and assure everyone that the spoils of war will more than pay them back.

shrug Where I live, cars feel (and know) that they’re invincible and likely to suffer no punishment if they kill someone.

Drivers like to think that they can do no wrong all the time, not just when it suits their purpose.
