“Weathered steel” was all the rage on brand new buildings a few years ago, why not on a “truck”? 😏

The movie, “Big Miracle”, seems to have been based on a real event known as “Operation Breakthrough”. There was a time where something like this would have the entire world holding it’s collective breath and doing all it can to save the animals. Today, hardly anyone knows it’s happening. 😢

I mean, sure, but I feel it probably wasn’t the greatest unmasking. Some of the stuff was just plain ignorant and embarrassing … for the lawmakers. Like this exchange with the Tik Tok CEO. I feel like they probably don’t really understand what they are up-in-arms about. 🤷‍♀️

Epic lost their case with Apple regarding Fortnite, yet now Epic are looking to make Fortnite available on iOS in EU. But from the article it seems an alternate “app marketplace” would still need Apple approval anyway. It will be interesting to see how all this is going to work.

ooo Måneskin’s latest stuff is incredible. Great choice! Love them!

Played Fortnite Festival and discovered “The Search” by NF. What a banger!

“That is what everybody on Earth will know,” he said. “We’ll be gone, and it’ll be gone because of an advertiser boycott.”

Oh no, not at all, dear … everybody on Earth is perfectly aware that it is YOU who is killing the company. Twisting the narrative to feel better within yourself ain’t gonna change the fact. Why would any advertiser worth a damn, want to be associated with Stormfront 2.0?

lol oh no … so what are they gonna give me for my 400 odd Fortnite Bricks, then? 💸

Yeh I don’t understand it either. I’m from Australia. Driving into a desert sounds like a pretty dangerous thing to do, no matter what the weather forecast is.

Indeed. Antarctic sea ice extent is at record-breaking lows.

Nice.

Just visited a moment ago to check if I received my Place awards for placing FUCK SPEZ pixels. Couldn’t access my profile page without turning off adblock. They just keep giving me more and more reasons not to return.

Extraordinary. 🤨 This is the sort of news I browse the internet for. Wonder what all that’s about, then …

Can you buy medicine from the pharmacy with online payment? Could not these products all process under that payment system?

It’s a heat/cold powered cycle … once the temp regulates the same everywhere, there is no more cycle.

Netflix wanting to get paid for their service and content is reasonable.

Sure, it’s reasonable, and why I started subscribing in the first place. But if I pay for four screens, I expect to be able to use all of those four screens, no matter what address they are being viewed from.

Indeed. And Epic Games even went as far as hiring psychologists to make Fortnite as addictive as possible. And as proof that it works, Fortnite is one of my most favourite of games and I play it almost every single day.

I was there 17 years. Can’t say I miss it, but I do lament it. The community there helped change my life in some very significant ways. But it became glaringly obvious that the administration have little to no appreciation or respect for their users. I’ve been enjoying watching them scramble to re-engage lost value in their IPO. I will only return to participate on r/place … whether that’s thru the void or a “Fuck u/spez” … they will get my traffic for that.
