Yeah, but if I was a time traveller and knew about the party, I would probably also know it was a trap, right? Why would I walk into the trap?

To everyone who hates the concepts of landlords and rent, what counts as being a landlord?
I absolutely despise airbnb owners, they drive housing and renting houses to the clouds in whichever areas they operate. Extra guillotine for you.

What's some amazing technology they have in Japan that's very normal to them but would blow our minds here in the US and western world?

It's literally impossible. I've seen programs ask three times to confirm a deletion, with big warnings, really emphasized. Saying it's permanent all three times.
Then the fuckers contacted us at tech support and go all like "hurr durr I just deleted my project can I have it back".
NO YOU LITTLE DIPSHIT YOU CANNOT. We did have backups though, most of the time (if it was recent) but it took well over a couple hours to properly restore, so we only did it if they asked nicely and behaved.
TL;DR People are stupid, no such thing as dump proofing. What needs to be done is hold people to higher standards and force to educate themselves or GTFO.

Yeah, for real, "Someone will 100%, do you want it to be your friends/family/people you know or some absolute random stranger?" Some lemmitors would surely answer "My people, for sure"

"Hey Mary" "Yes, Joseph" "So, you are pregnant..." "Yes! I told you so already! It was god!" "Yeah, about that, remember the angel, the other day, Gabriel I think it was... big flaming sword you said right? Was that... was that a metaphor or something?" "..." "I mean, you can tell me, we are in this together Mary, I'd just like to know" "No Joseph, no, he had a physical, real, big throbbing sword!" "Throbbing?" "Flaming, Joseph, flaming...

Thing is, a lot of English expressions come from Shakespeare's works, the memes of the time. Like, a lot. So communication back then was also references to other things. Now, I agree the scale is different, and now it's a massime phenomenon with internet and such.

Your opinion, not a fact. Most art is as derivative or more than AI art.

In Linux it is pretty much mandatory, it asks for NVIDIA 536 drivers, max on linux is 535... skip the launcher, and suddenly my drivers are okay (and tbf, aside from my card not being extra good, and a couple texture bleed in portraits and some weird texture loading issues (like, some times faces look like they were hyper pimpled, for a lil while, then looks normal) it plays amazingly
