Or how no one in security noticed a dude with a high powered rifle climbing over the fence.

This one, at least, I can explain.

They did see him! Secret Service just elected to ignore it, apparently.

Snippet taken from the relevant Wikipedia page :

At 4:26 p.m., a local law enforcement countersniper ended his shift and spotted Crooks around the southernmost warehouse of a complex owned by AGR International, in which police countersnipers were positioned. The countersniper text-messaged his colleagues about Crooks, noting that he may have known about the police presence inside the building. The New York Times retrospectively described the text messages as suggesting that Crooks aroused police suspicion more than 90 minutes before the shooting.[57] At 5:14 p.m., one of the countersnipers still in the building saw Crooks directly underneath the warehouse and photographed him. The countersniper saw him “scoping out” the rooftop of the building and carrying a golf rangefinder, which particularly alarmed officers. The countersniper text-messaged images of Crooks to other members of law enforcement before heading outside to find him and keep visual contact while backup arrived. Crooks ran from his position and evaded a search joined by four other local police officers.[58][59][45][60] Law enforcement officers spotted Crooks between 20 minutes and 30 minutes before the shooting.[61][62] Multiple local law enforcement officers identified Crooks and believed that he might have been acting suspiciously near the event’s magnetometer weapon detectors;[63] they expressed their suspicions over radio, and the Secret Service was informed of this at some point.[41] Trump arrived onstage at about 6:03 p.m.[64] At 6:05 p.m., he began speaking.[65] At 6:06 p.m., Crooks scaled an air-conditioning unit between the northernmost AGR International buildings to reach the roof of the complex, rather than using his ladder.[66] He walked across a series of interconnected roofs to reach his eventual firing position on the southernmost roof,[45][66] between 400 feet (120 meters) and 450 feet (140 meters) north of the venue stage.[2][11][12][67] The building housed three police snipers tasked with covering the rally, but none of them were on the roof due to a shortage of personnel.[68][69] Several bystanders witnessed Crooks on the roof and alerted the police about him minutes before shots were fired at Trump.[70][71][65]

It then goes on to tell how one of the local cops, not Secret Service, went up there to see what was going on, and spooked Crooks who then opened fire.

Ok but what if I take it through the Pay-N-Spray after

I am interested in alternatives. I stopped paying for Spotify when they were pushing Joe Rogan so hard, and YouTube Music isn’t really doing it for me for a variety of reasons. Any good suggestions?

Alright fair point on the nitpick. I meant that less as an attack on Rimworld and more of an expression of respect to Dwarf Fortress. That’s where that load-bearing “but” came in to play. Point taken though. I have great respect for both games and the developers of them. I admit I am on Team Dwarf if we come to blows though, I played that one first and it is, to date, one of the most genuinely incredible pieces of software I’ve ever encountered.

Absolutely no hate for Rimworld though. It’s a good game through and through.

Man I wish I could like Isaac like that. I’m not good at it at all. Every time I try to play the game it turns into an angry sweat fest as I take tons of stupid avoidable damage and don’t find any fucking keys for the third floor in a row

I’ve watched a thousand hours of Northernlion and I could probably tell you every item in the game on sight but my sticky notes look like sad trash.

Don’t even get me started on the challenges, I fear that list, but I want half those unlocks to get all my other unlocks.

Valve recently released the source code so that’s probably really easy to do now

I really don’t mean this as a dunk on Rimworld, but as is tradition with most things in Rimworld, Dwarf Fortress did it first. “FPS Death” was a common end condition for resilient forts. If natural dangers or greed didn’t kill you first, boredom would as your FPS crawled down into the single digits or, if you were really dedicated, this could become seconds per frame.

Rimworld has kind of done it’s own thing now with the third or fourth DLC expansion but for a majority of its lifespan so far it could charitably be called a DF clone with a readable UI. Now DF has its own readable UI and Rimworld has cybernetics and psychic magic so they’ve sort of both become individual titans of their own genre.

That’s outside of their knowledge though. They don’t know what’s outside the bubble, only that life inside the bubble is intolerable enough to risk it.

Honestly? I respect it. He died venturing boldly into the unknown, may we all be so lucky.

They haven’t seemed overly concerned with the security of checks notes the Trump hotels they’ve been made to not only stay in but pay for using taxpayer money.

Hackintoshes have been around since the 80s and this has never happened.

In 2009-2012 Apple did levy a successful lawsuit against Psystar for doing this in a business environment. But they’ve never enforced bricking a consumer Hackintosh and I expect they never will.

Using AI to cook up some fake actors as of a couple years ago.

By piracy.

Well it sure as hell didn’t work on my Tarnished in Elden Ring proper

No kidding. Everyone at my job all has nicknames for each other anyway, I think there’s one guy that gets called his actual name.

Mac Miller - Donald Trump

This was written back in the days that Trump was used as a synonym for “rich” without further context.

It, uh… it hits a little different now.

R.I.P. Mac, I’m glad you didn’t have to defend this later in life.

Oh, he’s been used, but that Tesla was new.

So where do you see “the people” celebrating the win and resting?

Are these people in the room with us right now?

It is, yes.

At this point you’re gonna have to do that first, and then I’ll elect you after, because we can’t trust any words spoken on the campaign trail by anyone anymore.

I’m an auto mechanic, honestly like 80% of the things I touch every day could kill most things if applied properly.

Thinking about reach and convenience from my toolbox, I’m thinking the 5’ steel prybar (effectively a 10 lb baseball bat with a sharp tip) or the cv axle I took out earlier. Honorable mention to one of a variety of possible chemical attacks or just straight up dropping a car on it.
