Everyone else can have soul pain.

So young. So naive.

That guy is an exceptional picker/exploiter, and he isn't even the best.

However, I've casually picked locks and always have a set of picks with me for the past 20 years. LPL makes me look like a 10 year old kid trying to open a lock with a pair of chopsticks.

In other words, probably less than 5% of the population have ever picked a lock. Of them, I'm probably better than 90% and I still suck at it. So running across an LPL level skilled person, who's also a criminal is going to be like a list of names on a single piece of paper. Just buy a lock complicated enough that you can't scrub it open and everyone will be fine.

There used to be program injecting devices you could get for consoles. It started all the way back on the original NES and it was called a Game Genie. By the playstation days of FF7 there was one for the playstation called a game shark.

By hooking it into your console you could then follow created instructions that could do all sorts of fantastical things to your games. Invincibility, moonwalking (jump and keep jumping more, slowly falling instead of a normal fall), play as odd characters, make the colors look funny, speed up or slow down the game, stop time, soup up your power or nerf it.

What this meme is referencing would be using it to (spoiler alert) keep Aerith in your game, instead of what was a 90's rpg fans biggest shock moment in gaming history. Like. Holy shit. Hours of gaming and story building and her being the clutch healer of the party. The most wholesome of the group. Ruthlessly murdered. Never to return.

It's way worse, though. It was an online survey. You know. The kind of survey that a shit ton of people who vote wouldn't have participated in. There's a lot of 70 year olds who vote, are misogynistic, and still lean hard to the right. Those people don't take surveys and polls on the internet.

The secondary (almost primary) problem is that the tariffs aren't guaranteed long term. You can't spend 5 years building a billion dollar electric vehicle manufacturing facility in the US and then have the tariffs lifted and China undercut the hell out of you because their batteries are locally sourced and they pay their employees $2.75/hour.

On the flip side, Dinosaurs is still pretty descent.

Hah! Time. Like that's a real thing.

Although the sparrow campaign ended in disaster, the other three anti-pest campaigns may have contributed to the improvement in the health statistics in the 1950s.[18]

Seems the birds may have been the only screw up. No harm reported from the mosquitos, flies, and rats.

Reminds me of that firefighter named Les Mcburney.

So how many pages is it?

Battery life. Forced ecosystem. Lack of options. Apple watches suck. I love my s pen. I can watch YouTube for free with no ads. The refusal to integrate the messaging system compatibility. How they refused to move to usb-c until they were literally forced to by Europe. Spearheading the removal of audio Jack's and micro USB slots.

I dislike Apple as a company. I'm still miffed that Bill Gates bailed Apple out and saved them from bankruptcy in the 1990's. All he asked was that they would be more charitable if they got back on their feet. They obviously did that, but then proceeded to continue being one of the least charitable companies in the fortune 100.

Then there was the crap with forcing an update to underclock their iPhones in order to hide hardware issues causing reboots from their still under warranty batteries failing to provide enough voltage to supply the apu. Or the time when they told customers they were holding their phones wrong when they designed the antennas in a way that would kill their reception if part of your hand was on the side of the phone.
