“So you slipped in the bathroom… and fell on top of the shampoo bottle?”

“And don’t you feel guilty about that one third?” - the 10%

Let’s not forget the legend himself.

I’m about to get pedantic.

Those scars were not the result of faulty wiring. Early belter space suits were built cheaply, often without proper insulation, especially around the mating area of the helmet. The suits would heat up in the sunlight, but without an atmosphere (and thus convection), wouldn’t be able to cool down, and would burn the unprotected skin. Heat management is also why contemporary EVA suits are white.

Right… folks in Boston forgot how to make long-lasting batteries.

Pip-boys are powered by fission batteries, why would you want it off when you have all the energy you need?

They can’t even give a satisfactory answer to whether lawyers would be able to uphold confidentiality while using their tools. The obvious answer is no, they just don’t want to say it. What a fucking clown car.

Sometimes for maintenance, sometimes because manual intervention was necessary. The machines where we did this were built in the 90s and have been in near constant operation. Moving parts are worn out and the tolerances are gone. Replacement parts are difficult to find and expensive to manufacture, so if something more complex than a ball bearing or axle got out of alignment, we had to pound it back into place (sometimes literally).

I personally never bypassed the interlock, I wasn’t paid enough to take on that responsibility. I would just file a downtime notice and call the on-site mechanic when needed. I didn’t give a shit about reduced output.

We used to routinely disable safety interlocks on production machines. A guy almost got decapitated once while performing maintenance.

You “own” your car, but the dealership stole the keys, removed the engine, and locked the wheels because you bought a used set of winter tyres from a reseller.

Best argument in favor of emulation so far.

Perfectly reasonable to be attracted to physical traits or customs (clothes, hairstyle, body modifications) that are typical for a particular culture or ethnicity.

The problems start when attraction is contingent on belonging to a particular ethnicity.

LK: “I’m not taking any steroids!”
Narrator: “He took so many steroids.”

That’s wishful thinking. Users don’t give a shit as long as the problem goes away without having to lift a finger.

They have a half-assed solution without a problem. The next logical step is to create a problem.

“My life has been an ongoing series of crises. Move over, you weak-ass bitch, I’ve got the coping mechanisms for this.”

Wrestle the cave bears.

Stop feeding the troll, for crying out loud. Look at their comment history. Look at the account’s name. Can you guess that they’re arguing in bad faith?

Social media literacy died in 2020, I swear.

They’re not even trying to hide that it’s dogshit at this point.

If you want to be really pissed, read up on doctor disgraced former doctor, lifelong charlatan and grifter Andrew Wakefield. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Wakefield

He abused autistic kids in a medical experiment that was meant to convince both the public and the scientific community that a specific combined vaccine (measles-mumps-rubella, a.k.a MMR) could trigger some kind of bowel disease that causes autism, all so he could peddle his own alternative that is three separate shots.
