Just go outside.
Stalingrad was such hell on earth.

Mentioning it to my grandfather would break him and he would just walk away.

He stabbed dead Germans and fellow Russians with his bayonet to make sure they were dead. It's messed up.

Don't need to em every 10th word.

My IT guys at work somehow keep disabling the show hidden files and folders feature in windows 10. So I wrote a program that checks every 5minutes and turns it back on lol
They don't matter. Duh.

Wasn't the idea of Twitter just to be like an outlet of large organizations and popular celebs?

It's kind of like a sweet metaphor for the eternal September.

Probably by grabbing a pixel of a monster and "clicking" on it. Pixel bots are as old as time. Learned about then playing runescape as a kid but never wanted to be banned. My friend made a few for fishing and woodcutting

One of our public facing systems I put up a silly "what is the capital of x country?" While we waited on some other stuff. I think it's still in production.

And to my knowledge no bot has gotten past it or even bothered.
