Well at least this surely will be easily disabled and then not keep re-enabling itself when Windows forgets its own settings every couple weeks(!)

That is probably literally Filch, poor bastard.

Wouldn't surprise me. If you're not into ragebait, tankieism, linux smugness, the painful minutiae of corporations fucking everyone, US bullshit, or all of the above... this place is really pretty slow.

I only really browse "all" on this site and it does seem like fresh content trickles in at a fairly slow rate. At least part of that is that it needs to squeeze by what is now pages and pages of blocked communities just trying to avoid the doomposting.

The solution is: don't go on Tinder. If it tried to be even remotely good at its ostensible job, it would put itself out of business. It's all "Match Group" or some shit, they own a lot of the "brands" on the dating market.

These guys are getting harder and harder to take seriously. As disappointing as the game itself is, what the fuck is this? Defensively and passive-aggressively trying to argue with reviewers? Long ramblings on how unfair it is that one of the world's most significant game studios, freshly taken over by enormous capital... gets a little criticism for the flaws it its products? Do you need to be an expert Twinkie mass manufacturing engineer, really, if a new product is, let's say, a tenth of the size and tastes of sawdust?

If they're gonna insinuate it's not the obvious reasons, maybe they should've served up some less obvious reasons - I'm sure they would've been convincing.

Many of them will find some way to rationalize it. There was a documentary about an infamous series of experiments some of these geniuses set up - they were obviously consistent with a round Earth, so they dismissed it and started mumbling about mistakes in the experimental design and so on.

You can lead a horse to water, but horses can be intensely moronic animals.

What was the point of spending years as a productive administrator, making tens of thousands of edits and logging thousands of actions, to implode the whole thing over a pointless argument on an RfA talk page?

People do weird things. Mood disorders, (develop-/)mental disorders, personality disorders, extreme cases of having a shitty day, or just being a twat.

What is really fucked up isn't just the meltdown, but the insinuation they did this to fuck with someone else, this Beeblebrox guy. That's not very hoopy.

That's fair, I don't know how I'd make ships climb the radio towers either.

Hard to forget how soulless Ubi is, but this is still really sweet.

"Angst". Quite a choice of words.
