Don't forget Final Fantasy XIV. That game got a full rewrite, top to bottom and came out far better than its original state.

I think a capsule, permanently drifting through space, frozen, with a plaque on the side saying "this is a warning to everyone" sends a much clearer message.

This is a message to all straight guys: buy gay underwear!

Get yourself on Andrew Christian, Box, or Aussiebum, or any of the other underwear sites that cater to gay men. We have styles of underwear you wouldn't believe. Yes there'll be rainbows on a bunch of them, but there's plenty that are more "reserved".

BUT, what we do have is a wide range of styles that are comfortable and sexy. We have underwear that separates your cock from your balls, which are really comfortable. We have styles that allow you to show off, or act demure. We have boxer shorts that have freaking pockets!

And because the queer community largely (not always, but we're working on it) accepts all body types, we even cater to larger guys who need a little more room in their smalls.

Seriously boys, get yourself some sexy gay undies. Your junk, and your partners, will thank you.

Have you heard of "false friends?" Words that have come from one language into another, but due to use have completely changed meaning along the way, often to mean the exact opposite of their original meaning. This is common enough that, especially if you speak a Latin based language and learn English as a second language, you'll see them everywhere.

My point is, that this is not an internet phenomena and has been a feature of languages since there has been language. Some don't last long, others are so embedded in our lexicons that we don't even notice.

I used to work for a major telecoms compass until recently, working on their VMWare stack and to say they are a major customer of VMWare is to put it mildly. The cost for VMWare has skyrocketed after the Broadcom deal, so while the team were gearing up for the next gen system utilising more tools from the ESXi stack, now that's entirely abandoned and instead they're tooling up to replace it. That's over 500,000 VMs across a dozen or so datacenters. Broadcom's actions may make them a lot of money in the next few years as their customers are forced to pay this huge hike, but it won't last for long.

This is why we say "the cruelty is the point" because this is where that cruelty leads.
