Fail of Your Day

Sure am, been there since the last ARR Beta before full launch.

Lol, I transfered in to be on the same server as my friend (who had been playing since 1.0). It’s a weird fucking place, even for MMO servers.

The public feeding eroRP I walked past in Limsa Lominsa’s Aetherite Plaza was one of the more surreal moments.

God when was that? I don’t see much open ERP these days, people keep that private for the most part.

VR Chat handles that well. It’s totally fine in private places only. Doing it in public areas, or sharing any content of the sort from private places, is an instaban.

Just before Stormblood, right when Heavensward was wrapping up.

I’m pretty sure they were just exhibitionists.

You know, there’s apparently $1 million+ in Kickstarter money for shitty porn Mass Effect. How much could we get kickstarting shitty MMOERPG?

I think in XIV people were (mostly) shamed into keeping it in private spaces. People goof, private messages accidentally going into public chats and such but blatant sexy scenes in public I don’t see often. As @neito said it’s probably exhibitionists.

Surprisingly a lot of people who ERP in XIV are pretty discerning, I think you’d get more with better quality.

I present as counter-evidence my news for tonight’s show (recorded yesterday).

I gotta say that looks totally shitty but fun in it’s way. But I still think there’d be appeal to an erotic MMO with production value.

OK but look, this game knows exactly what it is.

“made from a Frankestein amalgam of alien DNA and stale bong resin”

They’ve embraced what they are. In a way, I respect that.

Thing is, from fast glance, looking just the pictures that at least seems to have some basic effort put into it. The gameplay clips look like they work, heck I’d say the space combat gif is even appealing to me. So if you are asking could you get money by making a porn game? Sure, yes. But if you are asking could you hack together some random trash over weekend, put in some tiddies and go for kickstarter, probably won’t make you a millionaire.

The rear wheel on my commuter bike has a broken axel. Might replace bike instead of buying a new wheel for $80.

Friends of mine spend money on bikes like I do on gaming shit, so I feel obligated to tell you to do it.

How does a bike axle break? Probably did it on purpose so you can buy a new one.

I saw this coming. I honestly have no idea how a bike axle breaks. It’s hard to even imagine how that happens.

It’s only safe to ride while broken because the quick release and springs are holding it together.

I can tell you how I know it’s broken, because the mechanic showed me. At first he though the wheel was out of true and was going to true it. So he took the wheel off the bike. When he turned the bolt on one side of the axle, the bolt on the other side did not move. You can spin the two sides independently, and even in opposite directions simultaneously. It is clearly completely broken inside the hub.

Full upgrade. You use it.

Don’t bank with Chase.

Credit Unions continue to be superior > banks for me. I’ve banked with 4 Credit unions and 2 banks.

Can’t believe the PR person for Chase would think this is ok, but then again, probably a privilege dumb and more than likely white person who never really knew what it’s like to struggle financially.

Amazon card is Chase. I basically only use it at Amazon, but…

So, Sanders launched a new app for his campaign today, called BERN, which allows supporters to input any name and some background information of anyone they know(or don’t know), which matches it to voter information databases, which provide things like Priority issues, minor personal information, and even things like union membership. Huge potential for abuse, and already not a great idea to begin with, but that’s not the fail.

No, the big fail is that for about 10 hours today, give or take, that app was spitting back all the information it had - including personal information and Voter IDs - to anyone who used the advanced black-hat hacking technique of…using inspect element or similar tools. Which, depending on the state, can allow everything from identity theft(for example, in states where it’s linked to your ID, like NC, where it’s literally just your driver’s license number) to voter fraud(by making ID with numbers that scan correctly). At this time, there’s no way to know how many people’s details have gotten out, but basically everyone they had in the database was vulnerable.

Yeah, as soon as I saw them announce it I was preparing for the worst.
