[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

I mostly post gaming- and UI-related media and commentary, but sometimes I can’t resist commenting on social and political issues.

My core values are truth and liberty. I am not affiliated with ANY political party. I dislike misinformation, authoritarianism, and sloppy thinking.

@sarahtexe Collectivism.

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@james_xond Absolutely. I need to pay bills, eat, and travel to potential employers MUCH more than I need hair.

@ApexSeeker_ Respectfully accept the challenge, present wooden practice swords, and thank the samurai for the honor of learning from him.

@Emma_TFD_PS5pro Reina has been offering slots and boosters in exchange for high-value relics since Sigma Sector missions were added in March of last year.

@m1n1vv @FirstDescendant If you are referring to the descendant blueprints and materials that ETA-0 no longer accepts, they haven’t been deleted. Items that are no longer usable due to crafting changes are now accepted by Anais. She gives tokens that can be used to buy other crafting materials and more.

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@FirstDescendant Why does ETA-0 keep opening with items already unavailable? This week, Transcendent Module Selection Box A was marked “Sale has ended” without ever offering ANY for purchase. Your QA keeps failing and your support staff keeps rejecting bug reports with dumb replies.

Bernie Sanders is evil too.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Compensation Last Year
CEO of Tesla & SpaceX: $158 billion
CEO of Warner Brothers: $165 million
CEO of Blackstone: $126 million

They pay the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500.

Let's end that absurdity, scrap the cap and raise Social Security benefits.

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

This is grossly misleading about who ALREADY pays the most in taxes and how and by whom ALREADY-high taxes are squandered through waste, fraud, and abuse, but perhaps more importantly, it is SUPER evil. Fuck authoritarians, fuck collectivists, and fuck career politicians.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

It's time for a national billionaires tax and a new social contract.

10% of Americans own two-thirds of the wealth. Wages have stagnated. The cost of living has skyrocketed. 

The system is fundamentally broken.

The federal tax code, a corporate code, and an inheritance code were written for a different set of Americans. 

It’s time for an economic reset.

@bright_joh55037 @TheGarpInvestor @SenSanders If you want to have a conversation with a stranger, you should try being polite and communicating clearly.

Prices don’t “have to go up” with demand; prices are raised to exploit increased demand. Look up the “law of supply and demand” if you need a refresher.

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@YorchTorchGames Labeling games for being developed with the use of AI seems like a very strange intersection of technology and bigotry. Should we also be warned if games are developed with the use of Photoshop or Windows? What if they are developed by Jews? Which bigotry deserves labels? 🤔

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@TheGarpInvestor @SenSanders It’s more complex than that. Upstream component price hikes affect ALL computer vendors—not just Apple. If Sanders had the slightest idea about the issue he would focus his criticisms on the component vendors exploiting the recently increased demand.

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@SenSanders As usual, you seem to have no idea what you’re talking about but somehow you managed to seem both ignorant and evil. That’s kind of an accomplishment.

@iamchuckdub @eGvzman_ @XBOX Bro I literally was replying to someone else, you literally did not say that above where I literally was replying, and it literally doesn’t matter either way because like I literally said, I literally was replying to someone else bro. It’s OK. Threaded convo can be confusing bro.

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@eGvzman_ @iamchuckdub @XBOX Microsoft did a lot more than push for AI; they are already an enterprise AI service provider. Their Copilot enterprise service is much more capable than most people probably realize.

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@XBOX So due to high component demand by AI service providers such as Microsoft, component vendors have raised prices, and in turn Microsoft—again, one of the very companies driving up component demand with AI services—is raising its own prices for consumer products. Ugh. 🤔

Linus Tech Tips builds a computer for the same price as the Steam Machine, with almost double the performance.

What is the point of this thing again?

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@Emma_TFD_PS5pro I have used them on every character and weapon in the game (even blue-tier weapons), but I too have a surplus of nearly a hundred. If the developers add a new use for them we will be ready! 😂

[Zombait ★★★ @ZombaitX]

@FirstDescendant Your QA is awful, including your support staff who mishandle bug reports.

💩 Ines and Hailey STILL have clumsy skill-aiming with controllers.

💩 Harris STILL gets stuck in floors/terrain.

💩 Virtual keyboards STILL behave erratically several months after I reported them.

@Searcy306 @Destiny2Team That shield bug has existed both in the EDZ and on Nessus for years—probably once out of every three or four runs for me.
