Another reference, this time in 3D:

Me, 6'4" 235lb, that's a full grown and a cub 1:1 statue

Because there's no serious answers being given even though there are at least 2:

  • trees have roots, roots ruin any nearby human infrastructure. You'll note this says "in urban environments" and that there are trees nearby, so this is probably the big reason
  • trees need maintenance, which costs money. this is a stupid reason imo, but it's one nonetheless
  • algae is cool, ok?

Glad to hear about this site today, gave the few businesses with actual Internet presence in my area bad reviews for their bad business practices of supporting Nazis

I've had business owners complain to me before for reviewing them without being a customer but Google has backed me up and left my review up every time (I check every so often): any interaction with your company is grounds for review, including ads (and people driving company vehicles, which is where many of my bad reviews come from)

Post reads like some violently uninformed person making a lot of... I don't want to say racist cuz that's not really right, but similar sentiments about Americans

Y'all are stupid cuz of your guns

Is about as stupid a thought as possible as you're you're claiming we are because of shooting guns and the fact that anyone in the comments is taking it seriously shows y'all have the exact same level of critical thinking skills as those you're insulting

smashing printers with baseball bats

I have years of IT experience, offer Linux support, and am visibly the kind of guy you just know can fix your computer problem (or, if I take my glasses off, I look like I sell weed apparently), and when asked to help with printers I have one answer:

They're sentient and they hate you. I was trained in IT, not exorcisms. Send it as a PDF, PNG, or smoke signal before you try troubleshooting.

Like, I broke my big office one the other day so bad the tech had to come out. What had I done to brick it so badly? Tap a menu option, tap back, then tap a different menu option. If you don't wait 3s between the second and third tap it errors and freezes and they have to send a tech out to do some sort of 2 hour long ritual where he rubs it and whispers how sorry he is.

What the fuck is wrong with printers

Caffeine and nicotine are legit organic insecticides, that might be a deeper joke about coffee and cigarettes powering development

Legit, I've never heard of anti-competetive practices from Valve. Anti-consumer? Sometimes, yeah, though they do a lot more right than most

The argument seems to be that "30% cut is too high" but it's not like there aren't other options if you think that's too high. Epic loves to pay for games to be exclusive there, humble and gog exist, one could even go the retro route and set up their own website (though that's prolly the dumb idea), itch.io comes to mind...

If Valve HAS done some shady shit to ensure their major market share I'd be down to hear it, but to me as a PC gamer since '10ish (and had PC gamer friends since 06) it seems they got there through being a not complete garbage heap of a company that actually improved over the years on user feedback, which is supposed to be the good example of capitalism innit?

Something this obvious should have a ratio of 9:0

It cost 350 to have your age estimated on a previous visit?! And they only got a range from 18-39?!

Outrageous

Illness, no such thing

So the guy just isn't familiar with the property then, gotcha

I'll believe they actually optimized their PC port when their PC ports start showing some signs of effort at being actual PC ports

No FOV slider after FO76 had one is, to me, a great sign of how little Bethesda actually cares about the platform that keeps them popular (thanks to mods)
