  • Lol, do you realize that regular 2D printer manufacturers have mandates for embedding codes in the prints so that they can be traced?

    Or that Photoshop and photo editing software has mandated counterfeit bill detection features in it?

    It doesn’t completely invalidate all of your points, but the idea is not as crazy or unprecedented as a hammer with anti murder technology. Hell even just basic cap guns have to have an orange tip.

    As long as gun nuts kept insisting on designing and printing guns, this was inevitably going to happen. Like what the fuck did they think the end result of designing and distributing murder machines online was going to be?? Did they really think everyone, in every jurisdiction and country around the world, was going to agree with their dumbass Republican interpretation of the 2nd amendment?







  • I agree with almost all those choices but I never finished any of those series so didn’t put them on.

    Severance is the only one on there I disagree with. They may stick the landing, but imho I highly suspect they’ve fully jumped the shark and are in the “oh fuck, we didn’t actually plan for it to go on this long” part of a mystery box. I suspect it will just waste time for like another 2-3 seasons then suddenly end while not answering half the questions from the early seasons … like virtually all of mystery boxes that aren’t Dark do.

    • The Simpsons 2-9
    • It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia
    • Curb Your Enthusiasm

    All because of their fantastic comedy writing: nuanced, layered jokes, with satisfying stories, characters and plots which leads to endless rewatchability.

    • Community
    • Atlanta

    For being weird experimental extremely well written comedies. Rick and Morty’s early seasons might make it on this list but I haven’t gone back in a while.

    • Breaking Bad
    • The Expanse

    For being long serious satisfying dramas with great characters and writing.

    • Dark

    Get a special shout-out for being one of the only mystery box shows I’ve ever seen that sticks the landing.

    • Arrested Development 1-3
    • Parks and Rec
    • 30 Rock
    • The Office

    All get shout outs for being great comedies, if not quite at the tier of the above.

    Yeah, I’ve looked it up and this is definitely the case, I’ve also had both Canadian and American employers refer to my position this way continuously with no repercussions (I similarly have an engineering degree in another field and was an eit and am now in software).

    It’s weird because if the provincial engineering societies were serious about enforcing their rules, it would take them ZERO effort to find thousands and thousands and thousands of violations through like a single LinkedIn search. The fact that they dont put in such a minimal amount of effort kind of signals they don’t care about the rule.



  • Lol the McDicks app is not great. You literally can’t order ahead of time. It makes you go to the location before you can use the app, basically making it a glorified touchscreen machine rather than something that can save you time.

    Also, the prices are not that cheap, at least here. They’re comparable to every other fast food chain, including the ones that are substantially better.

    And the issue is not with having a different opinion, it’s that your reasoning / justification for that opinion inherently indicates that it’s not much of an opinion. It’s like someone who doesn’t listen to a genre of music saying that yeah, I think every xxxx song sounds the same.
