Nobody breaks the law on my watch! I’m conficscating your stolen goods. Now pay your fine or it’s off to jail!
Now you can have the satisfaction of smashing it to pieces and then you get to build it, in the end you’ve got a fully constructed set and you didn’t have to build it twice.
Pay the court a fine, or serve your sentence.
THEN PAY WITH YOUR BLOOD!!!

For those worried about inputting a password into a tool like this, they’ve actually done a great job keeping your pass secure.
Passwords entered on this site do not get transmitted to the server. Instead, they are hashed, then only the first half of the hash is sent to the server. The server replies with a list of every password hash they’ve found in leaks that match the partial hash you sent them. Your computer then looks through the list and tells you if the password you entered (which was kept on your pc, not transmitted) exists in that list.
From Haveibeenpwneds perspective; they sent you a big list of potential matches, but don’t know which one if any actually matches your password, because they were never given the full hash, let alone the raw password.
There’s even an open-source script you can run that does this within a console instead of a browser. Or, you can download their whole password DB via their github tools, then check it entirely offline.
Nice solid non-cable bike lock. Preferably a large hardened steel u-bolt lock.
I’ve been a big fan of Kryptonites New York Lock as well as their Kryptolok. Both have really nice mounts to attach the lock to the bike when not in use and the kryptolok comes with a robust cable that makes locking up the wheels easier. (do not use the cable to secure the main bike)
Using them correctly is important as well. Lots of people lock one of the wheels and not the frame. You’ve got to lock the frame itself to a solid object that it can’t be slid off of and optionally lock the wheels to the frame using a cable or chain.
I’d definitely consider a pyramid scam to be evil…
I’ve heard the screams of the vegitables;
Watching their skins being pealed.
Grated and steamed with no mercy.
How do you think that feels?
44·3 months agoJust to clarify a little bit (I was a little confused myself):
Postal was developed by the studio Goonswarm. The publisher Running With Scissors cancelled their games release because of the AI claims, and in response the developers have closed their studio, probably due to the financial strain of having your game completely cancelled by your publisher.
“After revealing POSTAL: Bullet Paradise, a title Running With Scissors was planning on publishing but not developing, we’ve been overwhelmed with negative responses from our concerned POSTAL Community,” reads a statement from Running With Scissors founder Vince Desi, emailed to RPS this afternoon. "The strong feedback from them is that elements of the game are very likely AI-generated and thus has caused extreme damage to our brand and our company reputation.
“We’ve always been, and will always be, transparent with our community,” Desi continues. "Our trust in the development team is broken; therefore, we’ve killed the project. We have a lot of good things coming (some you know and some you don’t).
“Since forming Running With Scissors in 1996, we’ve always said that our fans are part of the team,” it concludes. “Our priority is to always do right by the millions who support the POSTAL franchise. We are grateful for the opportunity to make the games we want to play, and will continue to focus on our new projects and updates coming in 2026 and beyond. We can’t wait to share more!”
Postal: Bullet Paradise was once “a timeline-hopping, dystopian bullet heaven first-person shooter with POSTAL’s signature darkly humorous personality”. The project is “no longer available” on Steam, though it still has a page as of writing.
Desi’s statement doesn’t mention which elements of the game may have been AI-generated, or whether they’ve taken any steps to confirm this with Goonswarm.
It seems like the publisher hasn’t done much to work with the devs, finding the true story instead of reacting to knee-jerk public opinions, and has just pulled the rug out from under them to protect themselves instead.
The devs have adamantly insisted there is no AI in their work; and if true, this really really sucks.
16·3 months agowhy not let them go to the playground unmonitored instead?
That would actually be the safer option imo.
I’m sure Roblox has gotten better moderation during that time
Quite the opposite.
Not a biologist, not something I study, just a passing thought:
I would guess a large number of venomous animals are also poisonous, because you’d be ingesting their venom. Probably not always the case; you’re not always eating the venom containing parts, and it my not be poisonous unless injected into the bloodstream/tissue. But that’s what my intuition tells me. 🤷
Just because it’s kinda interesting:
Tomatoes are technically a fruit, but they’re legally, a vegetable. At least in the US.
I usually cut a full pie into quarters, so… Nine sounds about right.
1·4 months agoWrap the pj pant leg tightly around your ankle, put socks over top, then pull on the next layer of pants.
Keeps the pj’s in-place so they don’t ride up your legs or stick out from under your regular pant legs, plus it stops the breeze blowing up your pant legs makin’ your ankles/shins chilly.
Pyjama pants stay on under the jeans when I get out of bed, then multiple layers: shirt, hoodie, sweater/jacket. Add/remove layers as-needed.
Unless I’m staying home for the day, then it’s just pj pants and a hoodie all day.
Humans are just overgrown monkeys, and (at least) one of us already wrote Shakespeare’s plays on a typewriter.
