Next update: Well, we never actually removed the feature because it’s already irrevocably engrained in the file system. It can’t be turned off or opted out of because it’ll cause your hard drive to explode. Instead, we’ve buried it so deep that only hackers, malware, the government, and Facebook will be able to make use of it.
Same, I have to use a VPN every night at work because Comcast doesn’t allow Parsec on their public wifi. Haven’t had an issue in the years I’ve been doing it.
Guessing either the VPN is shady or the IP was already banned from other people doing bad stuff. That I do have happen once in a while with Google, “We’ve detected malicious traffic on this IP address, blah blah blah.”
Then don’t use it.
Or fork it and remove all instances of the word. Put the pearls down, you’re grinding them to dust.
From what I’ve seen on their site since is that they’re saying they are now GDPR compliant. And I suppose, since they are still open source, that anyone finding anything seriously malicious would have pointed it out by now. Just a bit of bad press and people jumping to conclusions because “Russia bad.”
I do still plan to check out Tenacity though and see if it’s a better project.
There’s so many that totally need to come back…
I’m a big fan of Roosevelt’s “mind that functions at six guinnea pig power” and “fragrant man swine.”
I’ll take the shoebox(full of perfect diamonds, thanks xkcd!) and just for fun, the almost 10k calories of cheese for added wealth, opulence, and because I really love cheese. Some cheeses are worth hundreds of dollars a pound.
From a quick Google search, I saw a guy managed to fit 7,400 dollar bills into a shoebox. $10,000 bills are no longer printed but still valid, legal currency. Assuming that’s the max. That’s $74,000,000. You could dupe the box and net $148 mil.
However, thinking bigger. Go with a shoebox full of perfect diamonds. The value could conceivably be in the billions.
Ah, the best series I had no idea what I was doing in…
That was kind of the point though I guess. Don’t know how many hours I spent in X² just flying around doing nothing until I’d make a mistake and die.
X-Com devs’ lawyers have entered chat.
If you like ginger beer, Bundaberg is pretty damn good if you can find it. Costco used to carry it, but I haven’t looked lately.
If you want super strong, Fever-Tree was actually too much for me. It’s a good mixer though for mules if you really want the flavor to come through.
Cries in middle aged, highly specialized, poverty class worker…
As an avid coffee drinker… WHAT THE FUCK!?
This would have been cheaper if I just did it at home!
They’ve gone out to forage for dorito and cheeto dust. Sprinkle some in the computer and they’ll return! You have to keep them properly fed or they’ll leave! Don’t forget to leave a cap of Baja Blast in there every other week too!
After that, he decides to change his name and retires to the Carribean.
Horror Express with Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, which I’ve never seen. William F Nolin, who did Logan’s Run, wrote a version, but it was never filmed. Couldn’t really find any others, but I’m sure there are.
I also just found out tonight that there’s a fan film called The Thing Returns that looks so terrible I have to see it.
Also, there’s The Thing video game for PS2, Xbox, and Windows. Carpenter apparently considers it to be a canon sequel and the events in it clarify what happens at the end of the first movie.
The original, “The Thing From Another World,” is a truly terrible B-movie classic worthy of MST3K! Totally worth watching to see the masterpiece they turned the story into. The Mary Elizabeth Winstead one, same name, different movie, wasn’t too bad either.
Clearly mandrake that wasn’t finished growing…
