lol yep, there’s not much sense in a lot of things he says. I put that satirical response together based on all the times I’ve had to hear the orange felon talk

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Some quotes about Taylor Swift from the fascist, convicted felon rapist that's running for President:

"She’s got a great star quality. She really does. I think she’s beautiful — very beautiful! I find her very beautiful. I think she’s liberal. She probably doesn’t like Trump. I hear she’s very talented. I think she’s very beautiful, actually — unusually beautiful!”

Asked specifically what he thinks of her music, Trump admitted:

“Don’t know it well.”

When he was asked if he thinks she is politically liberally, Trump responded:

“She is liberal, or is that just an act? She’s legitimately liberal? It’s not an act? It surprises me that a country star can be successful being liberal.”

Without Trump being able to generate some new AI images, how will Trump respond?

"I'm a mastermind... of weaving! You thought I was incoherently weaving -- I mean rambling? No one, and I mean no one - and I mean this, really I do - no one knows more about --. Look, I've talked with a lot of experts. Officially, really smart people. They have a smart, you know what. And the thing about electric cars is that they're heavy. You know? And the batteries? They have to go over bridges, right? We have to ensure that we reduce the weight, because one, two, four, sexteen, uh... eight, more cars go over the bridge, and that's just. Look, that's exactly why we needt o be careful about what we think Jill Biden is trying to do here. And these experts, they agree with me. Really smart people, tremendous brains, hyuuuuuuuge brains. And they've-- look I've taken an IQ test and I got high scores. But I'm talking, they're talking, we're talking with experts. And EVs just can't run on gas. That's what they tell you, and that's what the fake news says about Taylor Swift. Is she liberal? Is she not? Does she endorse me? I think if she got to know me she'd endorse me. And Russia you know, they're not all that bad, but they would say that if anything, and no one, I mean no one really knows, you know? This is why we need to make sure we show up in full force, with arms wide open, and then we can kick Obama out. That's the only way. You see the things on the Facebook where they share the pictures and post things? That's all fake, and it's the fake news that are controlled by the puppets. We have to, and I mean this, really I do, I'm specifically weaving here, that the only mastermind that can, and no one does this but me, but I tell you we have to make sure that the mastermind is the one. And that's sad, really it is. Tragic. But I tell you, Taylor Swift certainly is one of them. And if she does not endorse me, it would be the biggest mistake ever - and no one, I mean this - truly , I do, no one knows more about mistakes than I do - ever."

Thanks, this is the actual quote from The Office. I dislike that the meme gets it wrong and says “Sir, this is a Wendy’s.”

It is like misquoting Darth Vader saying “Luke, I am your father” when the actual quote is “No, I am your father”.

I’m off to the playground to get shredded.

You mean the gym, right?

Right?

Thank goodness the terrorist plots were detected and neutralized in advance of the concert! Lots of people there they could have killed or seriously hurt. Reminds me of the terrorists that set off a bomb at the Ariana Grande concert back in 2017 in London.

That's a good looking PC right there, great specs, and a very solid build. Congrats and nice work putting that together!

Indeed. Unfortunate characteristic of the Internet Archive in the age where almost everything is instantaneous. It’s a treasure we must protect to preserve the accessibility of our history.

I can get lost in there for so long. A recent rabbit hole I’ve gotten lost in is looking at old commercials that were recorded on Beta and VHS and uploaded. I also love old restored footage (~100+ years ago) that gets uploaded. It’s amazing to just watch this history, try to put yourself into the context of the time period, and vicariously experience these human beings that are either so old or long dead.

Preserve what you can, folks. Protect our history.

Also, fuck DRM and Everything-as-a-Service.

Alito and Thomas Palpatine entered the chat, with money falling out of their Sith robes:

“We ARE the Supreme Court.”

“Time passes, people move. Like a river’s flow, it never ends. A childish mind will turn to noble ambition. Young love will become deep affection. The clear water’s surface reflects growth. Now listen to the Serenade of Water to reflect upon yourself.”

Hits deep now, doesn’t it?

I see you’re channeling the powers of middle management.

Only needs a sticker that says “You’re a rock star!”

 

Not my meme, I stole it from someone else. You wouldn't know them, they go to a different community.

 

Bonjour! I have no idea why I went french with this meme but I don't care at this point.

Ubisoft has said the recently released Skull and Bones has achieved “record player engagement” since launch, although it has yet to announce how many copies it’s sold or how many players it has.

EDIT January 6, 2024:

All games have been accepted by the winners! Thanks everyone for your participation! I loved reading the different messages and hearing some of the positives, the things that made you feel hopeful, and a bit about some of the games you've played. While I wish I could give you all more copies of games, we will do another giveaway like this in the future.

Stay safe, and happy 2024 ahead!

EDIT January 5, 2024:

Minor edit for posterity. All games have been claimed apart from God of War. Each winner of God of War never responded so I'm working down the list through a randomizer to select the eligible winner for this game. I'll update this post one final time as soon as we have an eligible winner that claims this final giveaway.

EDIT January 4, 2024:

There was no response received for the selected winners for Elden Ring and God of War.

I am re-drawing for both these games and will update this post once these final two game codes are accepted by the new winners.

EDIT January 3, 2024:

All games have been claimed apart from two: Elden Ring and God of War. Considering it is the holiday and there may be some obligations, I'm extending the 24 hour window by another 24 hours. If the winners do not reply by Jan 4, 2024 ~ 9 AM ET, they will be forfeit and I will re-draw new winners.

EDIT January 2, 2024:

Giveaway Ended! All winners have been notified, but they have 24 hours to respond. If the winner does not respond, I will re-draw for the new winner the next day until all codes have been exhausted.

I will also be editing this post periodically to acknowledge who won and if they accepted.

I loved reading all these comments, and thanks for everyone responding here and also sharing an optional story! There's a lot of positivity and hope out there, which makes me also feel the same.

P.S. - I really wish I could afford more games to giveaway to you all, but we can certainly do something like this in the future and perhaps make some kind of collaborative giveaway.

Stay safe, and happy new year ahead!

Enter the Norse realm

His vengeance against the Gods of Olympus years behind him, Kratos now lives as a man in the realm of Norse Gods and monsters. It is in this harsh, unforgiving world that he must fight to survive… and teach his son to do the same.

Grasp a second chance

Kratos is a father again. As mentor and protector to Atreus, a son determined to earn his respect, he is forced to deal with and control the rage that has long defined him while out in a very dangerous world with his son.

Journey to a dark, elemental world of fearsome creatures

From the marble and columns of ornate Olympus to the gritty forests, mountains and caves of pre-Viking Norse lore, this is a distinctly new realm with its own pantheon of creatures, monsters and gods.

Engage in visceral, physical combat

With an over the shoulder camera that brings the player closer to the action than ever before, fights in God of War™ mirror the pantheon of Norse creatures Kratos will face: grand, gritty and grueling. A new main weapon and new abilities retain the defining spirit of the God of War series while presenting a vision of conflict that forges new ground in the genre.

Hello PCMR community!

On July 13th, we asked the community for your opinion if you would like to change the name of this community.

Results of the Survey :

  • Yes - 28.1%
  • No - 71.9% (winner)

Of the 1,201 responses received, we as a community have democratically decided that we should not change the name from PC Master Race. I am grateful to our community for your input, as this was a difficult topic to navigate together.

If you would like to review the history of this, please check out this post here: https://lemmy.world/post/1430610

We'll pin this post for some time and then consider adding a bullet into the sidebar for this Community to help stave off further discussions around this topic as the community has already decided collectively.

Kind regards,

The Moderator Team

EDIT 30-Aug-2023:

Due to some of the recent targeted attacks against Lemmy.world, I noticed that the image I shared with this post was purged from their servers.

Here's a new screenshot of the results for posterity: https://i.postimg.cc/jqNg5gWx/pcmrsurvey.png

 

I hate to ask but there way too many subscription services and I don’t have the means to watch the World Cup. Are there any places out there where I can stream it?
