Bay 12 Games Forum

All kinds, CP. Many that are roughly in violation of the forum ToS to describe in any detail.

It's probably worth noting one of the more well known (and legitimately high quality) VNs involves screwing what's more or less something out of the cthulhu mythos.

VNs are, uh. Novels which are visual. Primarily text, most of the time, with accompanying art et al. Sometimes some sort of gameplay component. Usually you'll get to make choices to change how the story plays out. Kinda' like old adventure games if you're looking for a game based western equivalent, just with more reading and less pixel hunting. Incidentally one of the primary genres for game based porn, just as a heads up.

Painty things, I guess. Maybe some kind of sleekness thing? Sharp lines.

Always find having at least one non-short fingernail is really useful, though, so long as yours aren't brittle or anything. Like having a small knife on call at all times. Though yeah, as long as they're not abnormally flimsy nails can actually get pretty tough. If you're relatively careful with how you use your hands it's pretty easy to keep them from breaking. And that's not getting into the artificial stuff.

... the harm? Voter intimidation and potential vote tampering are probably the biggest potential ones. It doesn't actually take much for an individual or small group to have disproportionate effect on the US election, if they hit the right spot (the bush/gore thing is a decent enough example of that -- it didn't take too large of an area getting messed with to more or less cause that entire set of bullshit).

Given that russia definitely seem to be intent on fucking with the election rather more explicitly than normal for that sort of thing, and as near as I can tell was oddly uninterested in sending observers last cycle, it kinda' smells of something scummy. If russia wants to retaliate and block US observers their next election, well, okay? I'unno about the rest of the country but there's only so much shit I have left to give on the subject of russian elections.

Also good gods I am not playing edit whackamole tonight. Also ninja'd, more or less. I give up. G'night folks.

... haven't you said the exact opposite? Pretty sure I've seen you ranting about the immorality of having kids, particularly more than one or two.

Sorta'? It may actually kinda' be a good thing. A target like dyn is one of the most robust against this sort of attack, and to a large extent it didn't really do much -- the websites were largely actually still up, it was just a pain to get to them. Most internal/important stuff doesn't really have a problem with that sort of business getting hit.

The upshot, though? This sort of attack basically only has one real counter, and that's expanding infrastructure. Which is something that probably would be pretty nice to see. So if it gets people more aware and investing in/supporting IT infrastructure development...

How does an unhug even work?

It involves flaying. Better not to think too hard about what it takes to get residue from a hug off of someone.

Unlike?

Though I guess. I'd just be worried about sanders actually being able to capitalize on those skeletons, mostly. Half figure he'd just let them flounder and stump only/primarily on his ideological grounds, and m'doubtful he'd be able to win on that.
