The Onion buys rightwing conspiracy theory site Infowars with plans to make it ‘very funny, very stupid’
  • They should harness the crazy for good. Make conspiracy theory-sounding stories, but make them factual and get people to take positive action.

    "They created chemicals you can inject into the bloodstream that keeps them from getting the Measels."

    "The overlords in their golden towers want to tell you who you are and aren't allowed to love."

  • This might blow up in our face
  • I have advanced degrees in climatology and geographic modeling, so I feel like I'm allowed to say that yes, anthropogenic climate change is a well-researched and understood process AND that you don't know shit about what expertise other people in this thread have.

    Just because your opinion is uneducated doesn't mean mine is.

  • The American Empire
  • Having a US military base (that wasn't forcibly installed by the US military) in your country is usually great for a country's security at a fantasic price. Especially if you're a country that's not likely to have an adversarial relationship with the US.

    The US isn't likely going to invade or go to war with Romania anytime soon, so having US military thousands of US troops, aircraft, and the world's most advanced missile defense systems placed there offers great security that they're paying for just by being located in a strategically useful position.

  • Microsoft Teams is dog shit
  • How the fuck did they let motherfucking Zoom take over. The video-call equivalent of "Googling" something was to "Skype." When Covid hit, Microsoft screwed the pooch horribly.

    My sister is super high ranking at Microsoft, and when she calls the family, she uses Zoom.

  • Microsoft Teams is dog shit
  • My biggest complaint is that you can't save chat logs.

    I work in government, and we do a LOT of stuff on Teams, and I'm just waiting for us to get sued because we can't turn over Teams chat logs in Open Records requests.

  • Anons discuss PC vs console gaming
  • The newer Doom games play well on a controller because precision movement matters more than precision aiming, so even on PC I play with a controller.

    Having an analog stick instead of WSAD makes the movement much more fluid, and a double-barreled shotgun, rocket launcher, or chainsaw don't exactly require pixel-perfect aiming.

  • Anons discuss PC vs console gaming
  • Yeah, but they're really hard to use while kicked back on the couch relaxing.

    And honestly, I no longer enjoy games that require that level of precision and speed. I play games to relax and decompress after a lot of work, and if the game is complex or difficult enough that a cintroller can't handle it, I'm probably gonna opt for something simpler anyway.
