Hell week and rebuild period are pretty much over at work

I can once again focus on more important things, like working on art, and waiting for the new palworld update
Sure would be a shame for something to break 
Indeed it would, but I'm already home so 🤷
I just killed diablo
Can I get a round of applause?
Your welcome
Hell week is over, I finished drawing something that I'm pretty proud of, and now I get to relax and wait until the palworld update releases 
The only reason I call it that is because it's June and the June rebuilds tend to be rough from my understanding. This one lived up to it
spring frog
Didn't know they blow up too
Argargargarg
HA i did it! i beat the final boss
what is this?
Diablo 2
thought so, the text reminded me of that but i dont recall that screen... though it has been many years since i played the game...
I have the audacity to tell people they're wrong and I still dont know the difference between your and you're, Deal with it.
me very smart nuclear engineer but I never had the chance to learn english yaknow
your not wrong

That’s cool man
Your is expressing possession/ownership
For example
That is your cup
When is your meeting today?
You're is a contraction, or rather two words combined into one. These words being, you and are. You are generally is associating a quality with someone
For example
You're a really nice person
(You are a really nice person)
You're not bad!
(You are not bad)
In English we're a bit lazy and slam some words together for the sake of saving time
Other examples of such include but are not limited to
Would've (would have)
Don't (do not)
Shouldn't (should not)
What the heck did I just read in #off-topic-memes
Literally 10 minutes of some of the most wholesome and motivating "memes" in 1 single video and then just below that blatant transphobia
I know, I thought these were the basics of the language
but apparently, high academics in here still make those mistakes
thank you for the in depth explanation, hopefully this is enough to teach the highly educated people in here
I think the issue is that a lot of American English classes stop emphasizing proper grammar around 8th grade
They just kinda go "oh well it's not a big issue" when people submit entire essays where there's not a single instance of your vs you're used correctly
Hullo
I didn't understand your sarcasm
I think a lot of native speakers get too comfortable or out of habit with writing and reading and since they don't see it so much anymore they mix them up
'Ur' correct
Dankeschön ☺️

Hey egg
PADDY HI
I made the mistake of squeezing my water bottle while inhaling
much to the dismay of my enemies in the government, I survived
I had a french sounding female flying with a russian male, not related AND with three turkish kids, ofc also no relation between the three
how normal does that sound
Call that russian Mr. Worldwide
they're all unrelated, not married
Mmmm delicious human traffiking
apparently the female is some type of legal guardian of the turkish kids and the russian male we still dont know what he's doin there
some type of bizarre aquaintence
right but they're together
yeah that's the part that didnt quite fit
🤖
I can hear keyboards at the EU typing frantically
how soon until they threaten to block every app that does this
watching companies keep trying to push AI tech is like watching people play that one minigame from Mario Party 7 where you inflate a balloon
After your turn of trying to push it to its limit, your character stands behind a blast shield and if the person after you pops it by inflating it too far, you win
Everyone else loses
except in this case there is no blast shield, it's just a catastrophic loss for everyone if the balloon pops
Also, coincidentally, no one is having any restraint, they keep putting the maximum amount of air into the balloon on their turn
what they already fed to these machines is enough to put everyone involved behind bars but its for the good of the tech and human progress
so we gotta just suck it up and let these machines know more about us than the government
eh, I still disagree
the few instances of AI that are actually useful were specifically trained on a very limited and very legitimately-obtained dataset
Everything else is just junk
and I say, throw it in the junkyard
So, I might have anxiety or something idk
as far as I know Open AI has trained chat gpt before it was public with very shady stuff
cause at some point it was the one who feeds it the most data wins
and they managed to feed the most data
I was reading into it and openAI is not the first but the latest in a long line of companies using ethically and legally dubious means to get this kind of data
for sure
The issue with the balloon bursting is the economic fallout
The corporations are going to make it the average consumer's problem that this technology got shot out of the sky by EU regulation
I went to the ER last night, because I felt like I was having a heart attack or something, I could go on explaining how it felt, but ya, it was beyond just feeling this
The docs did some blood tests and took some X-rays and a few things
And they found nothing wrong, besides elevated blood pressure
So you had a panic attack, could be OCD
I'm not a doctor or anything so I can't really help
I was told to follow up with my normal doc, to see if I need anxiety pills or not
I wouldn't say anything that causes you to visit the ER is "normal"
Blood tests should rule out stuff like a heart attack (Checking for damaged tissue in the bloodstream) prediabeties, and other infections.. if there's no other more obvious physical symptoms then a panic attack is likely - you do feel like you're dying when they're really bad, the elevated blood pressure would make sense if you were in that state, though it could also be a false positive due to the stress you were under thinking you were having a cardiac event and being in hospital.
GP visit would be a good thing to discuss what happened, perhaps they can take you through some things such as therapy referalls to get to the route of it if it is anxiety based, or if you need medical help to deal with it.
what made him visit the ER is a psychological condition that fooled his body into thinking there was a problem
according tot he doctors I mean, I dont have q crystal ball
I mean yeah but I wouldnt instantly start taking anxiety meds
I've had a panic attack where I couldn't breathe, and I had no idea what was going on, ambulance and everything called, and it was nothing "physical" as much as a physical side effect of some serious mental health issues I experienced
and I've never seen someone take em on their first panic attack
THe advice was not to take anxiety meds, it was to talk to their doctor about MAYBE taking anxiety meds
A GP would be the best person to discuss this with of course, because your medical history will be available, and they are of course trained
if its his first panic attack, I wouldnt recommend taking em unless he was 24/7 relaxed on vacation but somehow the stress levels were still up
We can all have slipups, focusing on improving his mental health will help more than pills
Just ignore him, he genuinely has no idea what he's talking about
Your brain has FAR more power over your physical conditions, more then what people actually think(not just mental),
this is why you went to the ER
I am god awful with acronyms
What exactly does GP stand for
general practictioner
Ah
General Practitioner / Doctor
aka. ordinary doctor you should be visiting at least...I think twice a year?
even if you're completely healthy
maybe that's a dentist
Pretty sure with dentists, your supposed to go every other month or something like that
I don't think we need dental cleanings/checkups that often, if you're brushing your teeth regularly
Doctors it depends on if you have existing history / conditions and age - as you get older a GP visit to check Blood Pressure, stuff like that of course
I'm pretty sure I've heard you should visit a GP regularly to make sure your body isn't secretly developing a condition that could lead to greater complications
Even if you think your getting 100% of your teeth clean
You might be missing a spot or, something
at most every 3 months you should visit your dentist if you have a condition like Periodontitis
Yeah but I mean I don't think it requires that frequent checkups to find that
a deep clean more often than 3 months having no issue in your mouth is just wasting money
I've always heard 2 times a year
I have periodontitis and I do deep cleans every 4 months
minimum is 3 months
and that's cause of the periodontitis
I need to visit a dentist
a healthy regular mouth probably can survive with once a year
Same
I probably have a LOT of cavities with my incredibly unhealthy sugar consumption and generally being forgetful
trying to brush my teeth regularly but ah
scatterbrained
There's way more to keeping your teeth clean than people think about
tonna people actually hurt themselves pushing too hard on the gums
not using the right brush, not brushing properly, brushing too hard
or using mouthwash thinking they're doing good for them but they're actually just massively staining their teeth
My dad literally told me my teeth are yellow to my face the other day
And then I remembered I had just eaten a bowl of macaroni and cheese
That's 100% normal
But ya, I never been to an ER with an issue like this
So it was kinda interesting going through the process
Getting a bunch of stuff stuck on me and shit 🤣
teeth are not white
well I'm glad you're ok for now
we have a fetish with having our teeth white so we whiten them but teeth are shades of yellow
some people have the most yellow teeth and they've never drunk coffee or tea or smoke, we have quite the broad color spectrum

Hello
I wonder, how big brain is it if there was this dynamic in workplaces where employees work with a bank of hours to see more delays and unexpected misshaps than if they worked with a fixed salary
What if everyone's subconsciously just trying to make as many hours as they can
as far as I'm aware I know people with positions of power do it, very consciously
I don't think we should emphasize "number of hours worked" because that devalues the hour
Really there's no metric you could measure productivity by that wouldn't immediately corrupt the moment you use it to determine pay
So we're in a catch 22
I'm kinda beginning to miss the old grumpy veteran that's never okay with something and always delays stuff
I mean, there's no fixed metric you could use as a litmus test
i wish i could buy palworld oneday
theoretically if you aggregrated a lot of statistics on a person-by-person basis you could determine a fair pay scale
but every HR manager would kill you for that idea, because the workload it puts on them is monumental
basically asking them to stalk every single employee
HR is a lie, it's all piles of paper/unread emails
they mess up our salaries so much it's not even fun
I mean HR shouldn't be hard
HR can be mostly automated if you're being fair
HR "should" be mostly automated if they hired people that actually know how to do Excel
having to keep track of how many hours you worked cause you can't trust your employer either to be legit or to not make mistakes, revise every paycheck for the same reason and then being paid a pittance for the actual work
Join us for a #NintendoDirect livestream focused on #NintendoSwitch games coming in the second half of 2024! There will be no mention of the Nintendo Switch successor during this presentation.
📅 June 18
🕓 7:00 AM PT
⏳ Roughly 40 minutes
Watch it here: https://t.co/rYjTHHpayb
There will be no mention of the Nintendo Switch successor
tf did the switch 2 do...
the switch is ancient technology...
Maybe they'll announce new kit, y'know, SWITCH it up
but...but...it still works great doesn't it?
not really???
interesting, I thought it did its job
new hint on switch 2?
it BARELY did its job
in the end direct
yes the games could run from start to finsih but like
You'd be lucky to get half the industry-standard framerate
Weird then, it sounds like they're actually late then
i will later check Japanese direct
And if the game isn't a first-party title specifically designed for the switch
Just forget about playing it on the system
don't even bother, it ain't gonna happen
I know nintendo struggled a lot to get behind the switch, maybe they're having the same thoughts of maybe going for a new Wii or something
maybe the handheld console ain't for em?
They already said they’re not gonna do that at this show
Awww
We had a bunch of random meetings at my work and HR was the biggest complaint. The higher uos looked into it and ultimately fired the entirety of HR.
I think many companies are gonna reach that point
A decent HR system, set up correctly, does well over half the work for you (I worked on supporting a HR IT system for a year and a half)
"Wait you do things, how?!"
The problem is no fucker ever sets them up right
The consensus was that we were scared to go to HR and that we didn't believe they were "for us" the workers.
The higher ups doing the random meetings, when they looked into it, found that when we went to HR they either ignored what we reported or told the higher up (below the level of the ones in the meeting) that we reported them and that employee was reprimanded in some way or lost their job.
Many of the old HR reps faced legal action.
Yeah, that sounds like a group of people who should go swimming with toasters - Bad HR teams are BAD, good ones are amazing.. there's rarely a middle ground I've seen
If companies in Spain have a hard time finding people that can have a basic conversation in english I highly doubt they have people that know Excel enough
"I see that you don't have the required english but I think you're going to do just fine" literal words I've been told that have been spoken this year
And we're talking security matters here
I can't imagine how many less fucks they give about HR
This thing where "some" companies "allegedly" do their damnest to fool Audits might be, "maybe" "allegedly" going too far
it happens everywhere
I'm sure theres not a series of assets, documents and books that are "randomly" chosen during an audit
I bet my ass 90% of audits in regular, low paying retail are utterly a charade
Absolutely on the store side, there's some stuff that's .. less easy to sneak around (Card machines being up to date for example) but all it takes is someone with a creative imagination to balance books and paperwork
and they wonder why theft is so prevalent
Shrinkage is just another cost center for the business in a lot of cases, as it's not worth the time, effort and money to properly stop the petty thieves taking low value stuff
but I think it's the whole ecoystem, people working there know it's full of holes, people that know people know it, hence they become bigger targets
Stuff that's got a premium on or stolen in high volume (meats, cheeses, washing powders) then they care
There's so much "regulated" crime or people that work 9/5s but are doing the most criminal stuff I still can't wrap my head around how our society functions
"we gotta do what we gotta do to get the work done"
There's the people who do it for the thrill, to spite back at the system or show they are smarter even though they don't actually need the proceeds, then the people who do it for needs. It's a complex web.
Crime is a weird one
we gotta work hard on bringing trust back to our users, make them think twice before breaking rules, not cause of fear but cause of responsibility
we're so lacking those things it's petty
in every aspect of our lives
Fixing the seeming "entitlement" mindset so many people have would go a long way to helping that
people should feel bad, not thrilled
Also cutting down on the "FOMO BUY CONSUME" mindset marketing is pushing
I'd need a good explanation for that, off the top I have the principle that I think people lack some ego in their personality so I think it conflicts with that
we're probably meaning different egos
but I think people do need some entitlement, maybe the point is that they're overflowing their lack of entitlement into "overentitlement" with petty things
I think the issue is people see corporations blatantly cheating the entire human population and the planet itself, and think "well if they can do it, I can do it"
"fair is fair"
Yeah, there's 0 trust in that system
the relation is merely contractual, if we could break the agreement we would
it'd be anarchy but I think many people reached that point
The entitlement I'm meaning is the "I should have it because I should have it" type mindset, where people just take for the sake of they want it, they don't need it, or they just want to deprive others of a thing
So a rather underdeveloped sense of entitlement I think would be fair
is like Playstation achievements
I think that description fits my theory
I think it isn't rooted in people themselves but it's a response to, again, the corruption at the top
"Well if they're to cheat me, I'm going to cheat them for what I want"
Yeah it's a reflection of a lack of trust between the system and the users, applicable to an infinite amount of things nowadays
and it's easier for the few to change, I think
Yeah the system always has the upper hand
not a 100% wining hand, but a pretty good hand on average
Related to further up convo:
When I worked as a cashier, a woman tried to steal idk how many pounds of boiled crawfish by stuffing the bag under her shirt and pretending she got pregnant in the store
I remember we had some pretty big "education" holes as to how to deal with online purchases with instore pickup or return
we had the random guy that managed to buy way past the limit of the online store and came to pick it up at the physical store
guy had saved like 2ks in cameras
I have to remind almost all the pizza places that I still need to pay when I buy pizza through apps.
I am told I am so nice in store they just assume I paid on the app and tell me to have a nice day
waking up to "unpaid debts" in your eats app and be like what the
can't say it hasn't happened to me cause paypal likes to mess things up big time
I hate paying online or using apps to order things. I only use the apps for pizza places bc it is more expensive to order in store now days.
$10 pizza is $13 to $15 in store bc you didn't use the app...
Oh god we're so behind here, we're still in the physical store is cheapest phase I hate it 
I order online at one pizza place bc if you order in store, they charge you a crap ton for extra cheese.... That is a topping on the pizza deal I get and they will put an upcharge of $2 to $4
And that's not some type of delivery app scheme to undercut competition?
I am weird and I just call myself old, bc I prefer to go into a place and order >.> I like the human element
I'm the type that back in highschool presented an idea for a fully automated restaurant with 0 human contact
kinda pole opposites I guess 🤣
It is only THAT store that charges for the cheese. The manager and I argued about it too. She calls me her friend when I come into the store now
That's apparently a common reason to talk to managers nowadays, delivery app shenanigans, I did the same with a joint here
If I were getting extra cheese, I understand, I owe for extra cheese.
But if I order a 2 topping pizza and click the "cheese" button as one of those toppings, don't remove it and say I am only getting one topping and extra cheese >.>
The girls at the counter asked me why I order online instead of in store now.
I even showed them that cheese was a valid topping on the deals. Told them it was cheaper for me to order that way.
We enjoyed chatting, but hard to chat if I am not in line at all.
(just realized only girls work the front at that pizza place 🤔)
facing the customer is 70% females or something absurd like that, pretty sure
I'm so used to being the sole guy that makes them go "ah, good job you guys too" cause they always refer to the staff in feminine
Which I'm okay with, I do the same
Idc how I am referred to as long as it isn't derogatory or no ill intent/purpose was behind it
yah, it even makes it sorta weird when you have to in public realise you think you're not saying someone did a good job cause the gender doesn't explicitly mentions them
and then having to mention it after making all the funny faces
just leave it there, I get it, I can be a female today
🤣
Make sure to bat your eyes at them as a joke :p
XD
"I'm just blending in" "Briefing 275, they still think I'm a female"
i keep getting a lot of ghost pings in memes; seems someone is testing the bot lol
Apparently this Jordan Harbinger guy is a pretty good podcaster, any recommendations?
seeing an interview now with a guy that mentions how weight loss "meds" will be able to make people lose like 20% of body weight in a year, big pharma is going big with this one 
I can lose 20% of my body weight in 15 minutes.
Cut my legs off
Doctors are pushing those weight loss meds hard. One of my doctors keeps trying to get me on them like crazy
I mean, a single freaking dose, making you lose like 10 or so I think Ozempic is over a year sounds like a great thang
Me - I would like help exercising. One of my big issues is my lungs after the issue.
Doctor- I see... let's do this weight loss med!
I mean it would help your skeleton to develop that cardio easier with less weight, it's a help but how intrusive is it?
Weight =/= fat
You can have weight increase due to muscle mass, due to water retention as well, and also BMI is bullshit
yeah but the important factor is how your joints will manage, which is mostly a matter of weight
The 2 different prescriptions the doctor tried to prescribe me (I was denied the medication bc I am fat) are shots to the stomach. You are prescribed a 1 month supply of pre-measured needles to be administered once a week by either yourself, dr, or pharmacy.
Weight sure, but muscle condition, and historical wear of the joints are also big factors. Weak muscles won't support joints well, leading to excess wear and damage
which cuts both ways cause if you have to develop cardio those things will factor in
I was a bit happy to be denied the meds tbh >.>
Want to stick a needle in me to take blood? Sure, fine.
Want to give me a shot? Eh... uh... any other way?
Which is why "Magic pill to lose weight" is scary
You get used to needles even if you hate them - I used to pass out on blood draws but have had to gain a tolerance thanks to Diabetes.
"Stick a needle in or die" is a fucker of a motivation 😄
It wasn't even a concious thing about passing out, I'd just.. bam
If the dr was not lying to me (insert gif from George of the Jungle where the guys tilt their heads back and laugh) the 2 I was to be prescribed are supposed to decrease your appetite and suppress digestion so the food takes longer to pass through and keep you full longer
give me 20% of body mass in a year and I'll make that into gainz doing the same exercise I'm doing now
no powderz please I can't take those
Appetite suppression and digestion suppression makes sense, as long as you're ensuring you still get the right stuff in you
Is it just me or is #off-topic-memes jacked up?
it is

Falling over because you're not getting any actual nutrition because of slower digestion isn't a good weight loss plan
It's not just you
What's broken about Memes?
I wonder how quick bodies adapt to that and can change
I don't like the risk associated with injections. I am happy they no longer hurt like heck >.>
I used to have issues with needles bc of a weird pain I would get from them. A pharmacist finally explained that I was having an autoimmune response and my body was basically attacking the injection point.
quickest responders award to your system
Yeah.
But, that is still a fear I have of fhe medication since I couldn't get the doctor to have an actual talk with me about diet and exercise.
It’s like eating everything people are trying to post or something
they ain't slackin'
Not too quickly, especially if you have a significant excess and then decrease suddenly - can cause shock.
It's become a dumpster fire in https://discord.com/channels/505994577942151180/1081059175322353664 so a bot is now deleting anything that's not a picture
but we're talking weeks? months? how quickly can it change, how far can we push it
Yeah what the heck was up with that
It’s deleting pictures too.
I was like
3 whole paragraphs of text in my funny channel
Just passing along some info haha, I haven't seen anything bad in there recently
You missed the transphobia lol
There's been some edgy stuff ngl
If you were carefully controlling it then probably within months, but you'd have to be rigorous as hell, and that's assuming that you can even successfully do it and your body doesn't just outright go "No fuck you give nutrients"
Oh well 😆
I was going to report it but then I went in the channel and it was like nothing even happened
Last two memes I tried to put in there are gone
I bet it's deleting the text in the post which eats the post, or eating the URL embed post before it embeds
It's probably detecting the image link or caption as "not a picture" and delets it
thank god 
people was debating there again.. even with 30mins slowmode
And I see the same text disappear every time I check it.
the doctrine as far as I understand is "we don't talk about edgy stuff" let the team deal with it
I saw the 9 layers of cringe which made me cackle
Heaven's forbid people enjoy different things than you 😭
I guess it just seems sorta sad/pathetic to me to be letting things you so strongly dislike to live rent free in your head
I don’t think that’s it either, attachments aren’t sticking.
Can the bot message adter a deletion to tell people why it's gone perhaps to help clear up confusion?
Yeah Bucky informed me that was happening, now I gotta keep an eye on that channel
30 mins slowmode debates, jesus.
Yuuuuup
isn't that just a court case
Bruh
I mean it’s been 30 minutes
How can people have arguments with 30 mins timers
But now no one can post on it at all.
I find it tortuous
Dedication to the craft LOL
by waiting the 30 minutes
some people are that patient and petty.
"Google, set timer to 30 minutes"
it gives you 30 mins to cook up an extra good retort I suppose
By that time I just no longer care about the argument
- post text
- seethe about whatever you were debating
- continue this for 29 minutes
- type response angrily
- send
- repeat
And childish lol
Some folks really have nothing better to do with their lives
I still want the memes though. 
Go make yourself happy
Yeah it's deleting the URL before it converts to an embed, someone made the bot a little overaggressive
"I SEE TEXT BLAM"
Rip Memes. not that it was ever just memes or fun in games anyways.
Have you tried a gay one?
BAM
Wot?
Sounds like it's working then. People will need to be creative about it now.
I'll loosely mention to Bucky that it's deleting pictures too, but at the end of the day, I don't care too much about that personally
Honestly impressive that we had a meme channel working for this long
Joke on "straight" / "gay"
Check the month
Have you tried sending curved attachments
It’s literally not letting anyone post anything.
I'll try something else in like half an hour if I remember
I mean if you're gonna make it delete everything in the channel then why do you even have the channel
i wouldn't. memes aren't that important. let them suffer. 🙂
But but but
AND TO THINK I THOUGHT YOU WERE COOL
Too late, I didn't ping him tho so I doubt he'll actually see it
Memes are the elixir of life
Seems a little salty
The memes are gonna end up in other channels.
Kidding ❤️
They already do lmao
nonono, you cant go back on your word. already saw it 😡
I have a dungeon roomba meme, I should see if it let's me send it🤔
True, but it’s not gonna be an improvement 😂
I mean
It's gonna be even worse now
not to mention you're gonna get a bunch of complaints like "why can't i send memes?!?!?!?"
"where meme channel?!?!?"
https://shopmimimiller.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/cat-funny.jpg
STOP FIGHTING
*accidentally destroys entire channel"
new to xbox channels by chance?
Denied, sadness
I'm sure the memes channel will get fixed, we're still on like Hour-1 of this all happening
good thing this is #off-topic then

legally allowed to send memes
morally obligated to send memes
Working as intended
im in favour of the bot running across all channels now. what a sight that'd be. 
If "all channels" includes the staff channels then deal
We wouldnt see anything...
I can imagine you gaslighting everyone by setting the bot to delete random posts at random times, and denying it is a thing.
The instruction: "Delete all posts that contain text"
The bot: "Delete all posts!"
Not out of malice, purely because it'd be funny
That sounds like fun tbh.
And let it ban a random user every day. the pressure of just existing in server and making it to your 1 year anniverthary.
The ban is for random times too like 1 minute to 5 hours as well, so people can come back in and live in further fear
Ban text "You have failed the vibe check"
nope, permanent ban. if bot detects same IP, auto ban those too.
Oooh a 5-hour timeout would be a nice option NGL
You'll run out of toys really quickly though
The bot can't detect IP...
not quickly, just 1 a day.
(Assuming a bot on a Node.js Server)
messages.foreach(m => messages) {
const vibeCheck = Math.floor(Math.random()*20)
if(vibeCheck === 1)
//Have the marines dust off and nuke the site from orbit...its the only way to be sure
}
I mean in a server this large, I guess so because 91261 people online
It’s waned a bit since launch but that’ll change.
Huh. You can only do 1 hour or 1 day, no inbetween by default.
I never noticed that
have the bot ban a random online user, see the count drop to 0 over night.
you can use bot to set a 5 hour timer.
idk if the other mods know how to use the bot for that though...
Plot twist Mr. Mizobe is the first person banned
Yeah, I just thought for some reason you could do it as default on discord
Yeah can't bots also set like 1 second slowmode?
Ironically the best time to use "Skill issue" as a response
Why even have the channel open at that point.
ownership goes to someone random and that person is next to be banned. chaos server.
Ban roulette
Bowser's Wheel of Pain
That’s what I’m saying!
A server like this would be fun to be a part of NGL hahahaha
Write a quick guide on "This is the command to do it" as a post and then pin it in a mod channel for easy(ier) reference?
We just discussed that staff furry rp isn't real
already is
I once timed someone out for 10,000 years
Honestly I'd probably watch that on twitch

There is no Staff Furry RP in Ba Sing Se

- Bang Mi Knee

Let’s not get too carried away
I laughed
but again, i dont think most mods know or checked those channels. tested the bot functionality 3 years ago. most mods came with palworlds release and some are quite inactive.
Over-ripened
Banana
Ba-na-na-na-na
OH BANANA!
We got like 4 or 5 mods seemingly overnight back then haha

One day was all just me greeting new mods
someone send me a meme to send in meme channel?
I already tried, with an image upload
GIF got eaten
And it got deleted instantly.
There's a blackhole in the meme channel
nope. mine got deleted 
We got a live meme
IT LIVES AGAIN!
Only mods can post
Well done!
Bruh
Name it #moderator-memes
gg ez
hmmm, bot favours the admin. 🙂
makes sense
Honestly I can imagine some of the posts from mods/admins would be hilarious
No memes until Bucky wake up then, it's because people using it as "off-topic but can post image while arguing" again
Maybe it's role/permissions issues
Don't worry guys we'll get your precious memes channel back up eventually

FULL KNUCKLES MEME APPROVED REACTION DRIVE FOLDER:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yYDSp6fUEdeX_fNKKaWYV8cKuR8Bn6b0
so I couldn't find a high quality copy of the meme approved joke anywhere so I just recreated it entirely. took only a few minutes. spread it everywhere. stan knuckles.
Honestly I'm just curious about what broke, don't care much about the channel itself 😄
A server I'm in has a channel called "Mod-Sitposting" where only moderators can post (It changes names, but it's always basically that)
Well, moderators and a small group of regular members who get a special role that enables posting
I got that role because I did something silly the owner requested on the fly
I think it was like "next person to post a funny picture gets sitposter role" and I sent a banjo-kazooie meme I had on hand

When #off-topic-memes is working again I'll send the picture there
DID THE BOT JUST
Rip video
Given the reactions back when I posted #off-topic-memes message I’m not surprised it came to this. 
video was manually deleted. just leaving the one in there. timer is 30 minutes but mods immune, dont want to abuse.
You can probably post text too
That skull crusher in Doom dark ages is metal af, ngl
I've got like 2 minutes left on my 30 min timer so I can test for you guys if you want, should I try image attach, type text, or what?
Tried a gif, insta-nommed
Omg it sooooooooo is hahaha
Such a great weapon
I dare say it's the most metal fictional firearm
Until they show us what else that game has. 
I see you mocking us @wild mountain in Memes
I approve
huh? i was just testing something. 😏
YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
I CAN'TPOST MY HIGHLY INTELLECTUAL CONTENT AND YOU'RE LAUGHING
This mod abuse is UNACCEPTABLE!
I'll be speaking to your MANAGER!!
Huh. Embed fail
sorry idk what compelled me to act like that
Oh christ that'll be a disaster.
Even if they have limited text options, I'll just point at Dark Souls blood signs
inb4 this post gets community context'd
nvm, i dont have 2 arms, cant praise 😠
skill diff. 😭
(Use 2 \ so it only eats the first one)
nope, ill just gif it in memes.
Community notes is an S-Tier feature, but seems interesting that Youtube is adopting it after concealing dislikes.
I wonder what their angle is

.. it burns your eyes when you stare at your mistake?
Wait. It actually did once
Nice! I saw the pings earlier. I'll check when I get home from work 
Any company that sells the product can sell it to you, and it means nothing when the company goes under
They used the wrong UV type lights and gave a bunch of people sunburns and eye injuries
Drank 2 water bottles at first break and lost both to sweat in like an hour
Soaked head to toe in it both times
Water on the wrists and throat, don't dry it off and let it air cool, that'll help a little with pulling heat from your core
Man it’s hot today
"Air cool" Lol. Lmao
Bah, Air dry, but it also cools you. Brain go derp
That won't help much next to a furnace brotha 😂
Ah of course I forgot you work in the bowels of hell
I getcha tho
I just got back from replacing a broken water hose that goes to a burner block in the furnace
Oof
First job wasn't so bad, I just got wet and hella dirty
And being all wet in a hot environment likt that's gonna suck
It's funny because it's hot outside right now, but it felt pleasant when I got out of there
I was like "huh, this isn't so bad"
I'm the crazy guy that wears jeans still
Not sure why
I wear jeans a lot lmao
But if it's over 20 degrees Celcius I wear shorts
To be fair, Jeans would be a good protector in that enviroment
True. We have jackets and shrouds to keep heat away. I now understand why people in the desert wear loose, long clothing
Indeed
Yep, despite you thinking "Oh layers would suck" they're a lifesaver
Work outfits are long sleeves and pants so, it checks out for sure. I feel cooler in them than I do in street clothes
The army would make us wear lots of clothes & even layers during high heat.
Like a real life Heat Stroke Simulator
Backwards logic until you consider insulation properties
Your skin's less exposed to direct heat, and there's the air gap between squishy meat and the heat hitting the material
Outer layer heats first, then the air would heat up but because you keep moving it "refreshes" the air behind a bit
There was maybe two times in my 12 year career where the heat was so bad, they made a big deal out of it lol
It's not perfect though
We will probably hear something about it at work this week. It's supposed to be in the 90s all week
I remember dealing with a Heatwave when I lived in London for a bit, and the underground was literally dangerous to use - people were warned to carry water because if a train broke down people would likely pass out from heat exhaustion before they could be evacuated
That would suck
I am in the habit of carrying fluids with me anyway so it didn't make much difference to me, but was kinda scary thinking back on it
I often wonder where my body gets all the liquid tbh
Yeah I got the hiker mentality, if I'm going a distance I bring stuff with me
Plus I dehydrate fast
I have 3 camelpak pouches I can put in various bag sizes.. a little overkill but I also Airsoft so use it for that too
Camelpak rules bruh
is it weird that I enjoy when my food is so spicy it makes my entire head sweat?
Nope, me too
We have these little hydration packets we can put in water bottles that carry electrolytes
Excellent work
Good job
Oro?
Not sure?
You're rich!
WE're rich!
We're RICH!
Maybe the real Rich were the friends we made along the way
We're rich!
dammit
Waea're rich!
We're drunk!
Well I just posted a direct attachment memes and it got nuked
what link?
So confusing. 
Been wanting to post this thing https://x.com/samandfuzzy/status/1802388075399848065?s=46&t=rnky4PgecE9xNUnU8ERahQ
kyran, need something posted? i can help ya with it. 😏

He was Egg-secuted
Oh yeah they’re making a Shadow the Hedgehog movie aren’t they?
That means they’re gonna have to get into this arc.
Shadow the Edgehog
Why is he pumping that like it's a fucking shotgun
Was LITERALLY just about to comment on this hahahaha
God DAMN
That actually annoys me a little watching it, and I'm not a gun nut
Pump-action AR-15
We need to add that gun to palworld
Man...Dragostrophe's sheer thiccness is giving me trouble lol
Easy
I'm in the same boat as you right now.
It's so cringe but I can't look away
you know shadow the hedgehog (video game) messed me up as a kid
I went on for like
years, thinking that guns did that
Hahahahahaha
I would get toy guns and try to pump them
Hmm
I think guns being in Sonic is kinda dumb lol
the fact that a lot of nerf guns used a slider in that location to lock the spring in the "ready to fire" position didn't help
Oh no lmao
I still remember when it happened and everyone was like wtf 😆
Yeah, Nerf and other ones do work very differently
So edgy lmao
it what happens when the motion actor uses a super soaker as the prop 😅
Thiccness done...I think it looks okay..
I never even thought about if it was motion capped in honesty
tbh that would make sense.
sometimes though it's just simply lack of gun knowledge. like how in palworld we still hold the rocket launcher backwards
(To be fair we also ram a pengullet into it and yeet it, so....)
tbh palworld gets a pass because of how much "laws" it breaks to begin with
it's funny cause the GameSpot video that pointed that out to me actually praised palworld for being very accurate and faithful throughout; the rocket launcher was just an unfortunate glaring error
Memes is broken at the moment
only cool kids can post memes now

Are there new ones that are just as funny? O.o
nothing wrong with #off-topic-memes, i just threw an old one to test
Gregnant
mods and regulars some other roles can post just fine
Mods and Admins can post, but us plebs are losing posts to the bots
I can’t
apparently some fight broke out so memes got locked
Unless it got fixed in the past hour or so 😅
Tell us the lore
i don't know enough about it, and i feel bringing it up will just get offtopic locked too lol
Nvm then
Azrelus can and they're not a mod/admin.
I think there was some person posting.. less nice content, and then people started an argument in the channel
its still allowed for everyone, there's just new criteria for automod. you guys can have fun figuring it out
i think you just have to do better next time. 😏
Hmm
I'm mostly here for memes, announcements, and when I'm feeling lonely i hang out in off topic and contribute nothing of value
regulars dont have added permissions outside different name color
I have been having issues with gifs, too. I can't take one I found online and post it anywhere in this server.
I can post the direct link, but then the animation fails.
There's only a few places you can upload images anyway IIRC
Oh yay more exploits /s
I did not know gifs could be the center of an exploit. 🤔
This is what happens when people try and do stupid fancy things with image and file formats
Did they add something like a rootkit in them and then send it to the server?
nah. people was debating/arging in memes channel, even with 30mins slowmode
Well external gifs can be posted via links, links can be altered after posting and lead to other malicious content or sites. There's one going around where people post link then edit it later to porn and report the discord in hopes it gets shut down
Yeah that's a given anywhere in internet people always find something to fight over
Changing the target image is as old as the internet, not really much of an exploit to be fair
time to add a #off-topic-memes_fight_club channel
Ah, a case of pharming, then?
It's more how the app viewing the image processes it, and vulnerabilities therin, because apparently Adobe think having PDF documents work the same way as an executable and being able to run remote code is a good idea for a document file type
grumbles about how a gif isn't said "Jiff" or whatever because it's Graphics Interchange Format and people are always changing things
A friend once tried to tell me that the creator of the GIF format said it's pronounced JIF, but I don't care about that, it's with a hard G sound
Yeah, I don't get it either, it's just weird
I swear to Jod
It's an instance where the creator is wrong IMO or they're just trolling
Lmao Jirlboss
Pronouncing it like JIF is like calling a Meme a Me-Me, you just don't do that stuff
you mean a may-may?
my friend did this, and i smacked them upside the head in response
Excellent Krissy, absolutely excellent

This is what I like to hear
Can we get Palworld for Switch tomorrow
Jone*
banned for calling Gif, Jif....
I like that Jhett cartoon about it
hold the fort, are those the new future types but classic format
Not just future, both sets of paradox pokémon.
how dare you post palworld ripoffs here
see, ppl can still post in #off-topic-memes
But the guy who coined the word wanted it pronounced like JIF peanut butter o.o
I see, looks like they are all discord cache links.
The creator is a silly gooser haha
Jif peanut butter makes people happy, how can saying jif make yoh all so mad :(
Short answer is yes
Go for maintenance 🛠️
Hah, I tried copying and pasting one of the memes there and it still didn’t work.
no fun allowed in memes channel
I will hit it with my best hammer 

We really do be living in dark times 😔

Why do coworkers get so pissy about you coming in with covid. Like bruh. My electric bill doesn’t care that I’m sick.
That Chillet face is too much.
probably cause theirs doesn't take care of itself as well
EA execs earned $60 million in 2024 despite layoffs and office closures
https://t.co/IY6yneoaX3
well I mean the CEO raise isnt going to pay itself...especially since EA hasn't made anything good in over a decade... so of course they gotta gut the team...bring in new unexperienced hires working for peanuts in comparison then fire them after the next game release and continue the cycle lol
if you want them to stop...then stop buying bullshit games from them. battlefield been dead...all they got is microtransactions from car and sports games....which means the UK needs to stop with their bs as well. you dont need a new soccer game that mired in transactions nor some f1 with same thing
awrf?
It's crazy to me, that people go to work with covid, and then act surprised when people get upset
It's like going to an airport with dynamite, and then acting surprised that the security gets upset
@queen vale ❓
Many don't see covid the same as the flu yet. Then a lot of people still get hit hard with it and expect others to stay home and not spread it.
For me, if you felt bad enough to go get it diagnosed, then you should have remained home. If you home tested to check, avoid people as if they have the plague so you lower the risk of spreading it.
it's crazy that you can get one of the most dangerously contagious diseases in modern history and your job won't pay you enough to take time off to quarantine
They do, it's called the FFCRA
Considering he didn't wanna take others people health into consideration
It's safe to bet he didn't talk to his boss about taking a covid leave
Probably...
Hell, even Walmart gives covid leave
And Walmart treats their employees like absolute dog shit
Isnt that like all places?
Majority of jobs get around that by tying it into your vacation time. If you try to use it, they take all of your paid vacation first, leaving you with nothing when you need to stay home for other things.
I havent worked a single job that actually... treated its employees like humans
scratch that...treated anyone like decent humans
Since treating ppl like dirt is the norm
I have, I worked at a potato chip factory
And they treated us pretty nicely, although I didn't like the job because it was so mundane
Of course its factory work
i dont blame u lol
Idk i never moved up on the corporate ladder. However i do not know how much this holds true for jobs u land with degrees
I felt like if I was gonna keep working there I'd end up blowing my brains out
The job was so fucken boring, it was driving me insane
Yes thats the daulity of working. I love jobs where i freaking have good friends who make time blow by
Its either a job that keeps me so busy i dont have to think about boredom or a job so mundane that i need good people to work with to make it lively
My name is Jeff
I doubt that very much
The pay itself was insane
But it was not worth it
(I was bringing home like $700 a week, AFTER taxes were removed)
thats how i felt when i was working in a bacon factory.... free bacon good moneys....but it felt like i was dying inside...literally
And I only worked like a month or so there
And did NONE of the optional over time shifts
Coming home smelling greasy and stuff...its demoralizing
The thing about working in retail is i hate rude people and i dont consider myself a people person. but meeting new people and never knowing who i will get kept the job fresh for me
Nah I didn't have that issue
Thats what i think is key about my job. As long as the job has some variance i am fairly ok. its routine that kills my soul
How apparently so many players are rediscovering Dark and Darker seems like a nightmare to me
They put a gear cap of 25, just one, not two or three, not green blue purple, just a tiny cap of 25
If you're above you're placed in a more difficult "Normal" matching pool where all the whales bought gold from hackers and have entire sets of legendary items with items that have names
So it's exactly the same as it has been before with a different name, WTF
And I get that 100% but the only way I could miss would be calling in unpaid and taking discipline for all the absents. And my coworkers know this. It’s not like I have options.
stepdaddy lives
wot kind of illness?
Rona
as half the globe has nowadays
i had it once yearssss ago
something started here last week, literally like 60% of people have some coronavirus
either lungs, throat, just congestion, but everyone has it
same stuff for me, I can breathe completely fine but the moment I cough all the mucus just comes up to say hellow
I guess I needed an excuse to cut down on tobacco
There ya go, bright side of shit.
We don’t get covid leave. It’s show up to work or receive discipline points for the day you miss. By all means though. Make some more assumptions.
Imagine getting leave just casue you're sick with a contagious disease
Idk where that happens, not where I live
Not here either. For like the first few months of Covid they gave us time off. But that didn’t even last into 2021.
even when facing the customer you have to be seriously sick and have a bad image for your boss to send you home on their own
it ain't happening if you can just hide for a second a cough your lungs out
sounds like you need to go work somewhere else gonna bee real with you
That's how everywhere works here
I said somewhere else
as in, not "here"
It's my country, I'm not yet ready to leave it, and I know many places in Europe or the US are exactly the same
if you live in a place where "productivity" is considered more important than the containment of a dangerous disease, you need to get out of that place
your pfp is adorable did u make it o,o
no it's a screenshot from a manga
My plan is to eventually become my own boss so I think I'm not escaping that dynamic ever
I should be ready to work from a hospital bed with tubes coming out of me
Yeah. Here you either take a hit to your attendance or leave in the companies ambulance.
Sounds pretty lousy ngl
same goes to kids, that kid is going to school, sick or not
irresponsible, really
the overwhelming reality, really
It does suck. All I want is to stay home and play video games
Strange how everyone but you two seems to think that isn't how it works
which would imply that you two are in the outlier

Dood, literally every spanish citizen could tell you the same experiences
I don’t know of any companies offering time off for Covid.
They only did that when daddy government made them
I'm not speaking just from my own personal experience, I'm transmitting what my entire surroundings goes through
And that was only a limited time
🤷♀️
Now it’s just treated like the common cold
Guess the only responsible thing to do is make it their problem
I remember a work mate of mine, he went to work with a broken arm as a security guard, when his arm healed his bosses respected him so much he was made area captain
Yeah I'd love to see a security guard with a broken arm secure anything
Oh it’s gonna be their problem. I sat in two meetings today. There’s gonna be A LOT of call offs in the coming weeks
he hid his broken arm the entire time
that's just stupid
he went to work and the place couldn't find more security guards cause there's a serious shortage
monumentally stupid
the injury could've easily been made worse
the guy is working like 3 or 4 different places
they don't give you a cast for fun
He pushed through it, bosses appreciated that, he works like that
pushed through it
More like got incredibly lucky
That's what people in real world positions, not getting paid 2 or 3k a month go through
Like what if there was an incident and he had to use his arms
Heyo just an update I’ll be looking to immigrate a lot sooner as in next week so woohoo?
If he didn't go to work then there would be no security guard at all, that's the reality of the situation
the place couldn't even open
Well that sounds like management's problem
That's the freaking labor market bruh
stuff isn't pretty
you go to work sick cause workplaces need you, they don't have spare workers
they can't just hire someone for three days cause you need sick leave
your workmates will have to push through with one less
damn.
