FBI alleges that it’s North Korea, North Korea publishes a proclamation that it’s not them.

I’d like to see at least some detail that goes into attributing it.

Games with launchers becoming trendy in 1, 2, 3…

That’s a nice way to leverage Steam’s own stats against dumbasses.

I personally disagree with normalization of such violence. It makes people tolerate it to the point they don’t even register it as wrong. Hence why repubs wanted to publicly execute people.

Imagine pissing off rural base so much they stop caring about stupid idpol and vote for a competent person. Alabama is aflame.

LLM gen pic that references the real and memed Anomancy book.

I am surprised that UE and Fortnite are still afloat lol. Are they run by the same company and people? Or are they smart enough to let devs do their thing bringing the money home?

Or rather repurpose what’s already paid by one’s taxes.

I think many would assume it is connected to professor, professional and other profs. Someone carrying an institution-verified skill set.

So it’s a noun as profligate? I thought it’s a verb, and thought it would profligator or something.

I find it tricky to catch on in slav spaces as it has a positive ‘prof’ root in it, but I’d try.

Where in F:NV it was used? I played like 8 years ago and can’t recall.

I’m gonna try to use pendejo in my social circle instead. It has the right vibes of a heavy slur. We already use a ton of english words casually, can’t make it worse by dropping some spanish into the mix.

I’m interested in what other words I can snitch as I go.

Per Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_profanity#Pendejo

Pendejo (according to the Diccionario de la lengua española de la Real Academia Española, lit. ‘a pubic hair’), according to the Chicano poet José Antonio Burciaga, “basically describes someone who is stupid or does something stupid.” Burciaga said that the word is often used while not in polite conversation. It may be translated as “dumbass” or “asshole” in many situations, though it carries an extra implication of willful incompetence or innocent gullibility that is ripe for others to exploit. The less extreme meaning, which is used in most Spanish-speaking countries, translates more or less as “jackass”. The term, however, has highly offensive connotations in Puerto Rico. An older usage was in reference to a man who is in denial about being cheated (for example, by his wife). Burciaga said that pendejo “is probably the least offensive” of the various Spanish profanity words beginning with “p” but that calling someone a pendejo is “stronger” than calling someone estúpido. Burciaga said, “Among friends it can be taken lightly, but for others it is better to be angry enough to back it up.”

In Mexico, pendejo most commonly refers to a “fool”, “idiot”, or “asshole”. In Mexico, there are many proverbs that refer to pendejos. In Peru, it means a person who is opportunistic in an immoral or deceptively persuasive manner (usually involving sexual gain and promiscuity but not limited to it), and if used referring to a female (ella es pendeja), it means she is promiscuous (or perhaps a swindler). There the word pendejada and a whole family of related words have meanings that stem from these. In South America, pendejo is also a vulgar, yet inoffensive, word for children. It also signifies a person with a disorderly or irregular life. In Argentina, pendejo (or pendeja for females) is a pejorative way of saying pibe. The word, in Chile, Colombia, and El Salvador, can refer to a cocaine dealer, or it can refer to a “fool”.

In Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, it has different meanings depending on the situation. It can range from ¡Te cogieron de pendejo! (“You were swindled!”) to ¡Qué tipa pendeja! (“What a dumbass!” as when a strange woman behaves offensively and then suddenly leaves). In Mexico and some countries in Central America, especially El Salvador, una pendejada/pendeja is used to describe something incredibly stupid that someone has done. In many regions, especially in Cuba, pendejo also means “coward” (with a stronger connotation), as in ¡No huyas, pendejo! (“Don’t run away, chicken-shit!”) or No seas pendejo! (“Don’t be such a coward!”).

In South America, it refers to a person regarded with an obnoxiously determined advancement of one’s own personality, wishes, or views (a “smartass”). In Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay, pendejo or pendeja refers to a child, usually with a negative connotation, like that of immaturity or a “brat”. Also in Argentina, since pendejo literally means “pubic hair”, it usually refers to someone of little to no social value. In Peru, however, it does not necessarily have a negative connotation and can just refer to someone who is clever and street-smart. In the Philippines, it is usually used to refer to a man whose wife or partner is cheating on him (i.e. a cuckold). In North Sulawesi, Indonesia, pendo (a derivative of pendejo) is used as profanity but with the majority of the population not knowing its meaning. The word was adopted during the colonial era when Spanish and Portuguese merchants sailed to this northern tip of Indonesia for spices. In the American film Idiocracy, Joe Bauers’s idiot lawyer is named Frito Pendejo. Burciaga says that the Yiddish word putz “means the same thing” as pendejo.

In Russian we have a common slur that covers a lot of cases like pendejo, but sadly has a heavy luggage of homophobia. I’m surprised and delighted pendejo writeup don’t have any of it.

It’s time to invest into FEDI stonks. I mean, support your favorite platforms’ mainteiners.

They went with the assumption that as Google buys their data and replaces their links in search queue with LLM gen answers, their organic traffic from searches would get reduced into nothingness, so they can push their login requirement with little drawbacks. They increase price of each ad via personalization in a short run, but without a drag of the likes of Instagram, Discord, Whatsapp etc there would hardly be new users to create content.

Np.

Paper cup coffees and regular cigs are better of these evils. Foam is cursed, but not as cursed as disposable or even rechargeable vape. It’s like comparing soft and cold, but someone’s more obvious individual likeness to get a lung cancer may be less significant than a trace of li-pol batteries they’d leave after them, I believe.

The spirit of my reply was “look who is doubling down on betting on zero again and again”, but I welcome your comment.
