Gamers are legitimately an oppressed class at this point When are we crucifying Sam Altman

I’m being silenced by the Colorado DMV.

The Colorado DMV is a straight up satanic entity. If the body style is listed on the existing title, bill of sale, cover letter, etc, but there’s a dealer reassignment page with a field for the body style that’s not filled out they won’t process it. But if there’s a dealer reassignment page w/o

[in the company teams chat] I think there’s a lot of gender in how the dealers treat us like their mom expecting us clean up all their messes while being so fragile about DMVs [feminine coded institution] exercising authority over them

The Ferrari Luce looks like a car that would cost <$200k not >$600k but I kinda like it and am surprised everyone seems to be saying it’s outright ugly. Is it what a Ferrari should be, I have no idea. But if I had more money than god I might consider it. 🤷‍♂️

Didn’t even last long enough for the markets to open and realize gains from another round of “deal imminent” lol

Oh my god. Dealership troglodytes way over tightened the screws for my underbelly cover thing to the point they stripped them, it’s literally just a plastic cover it doesn’t need to be bolted down super tight. And just lost one of the plastic bolts and never told me. Absolute nexus of evil.

I'm actually so fed up with being a PC gamer. I was going through multiple demanding games to make absolutely sure my GPU is fine. Only Fortnite was glitching the fuck out in a way that made me think my GPU was dying again. But nope the game is just bugged on AMD 9000 series right now lmao 😹🔫

Hallelujah. I have no fucking idea what happened, but I somehow managed to revive my GPU. Since it was dead I was going to try reflowing it in the oven as a last ditch attempt and before I did that, I washed it with water and then rubbing alcohol. And that was all that was needed? I've been stress

I. am ordering you. TO PICKUP A PENCIL.

no

Christmas 2028. It's in the news again that a deal is imminent except for the biggest stumbling blocks that have held up all previous deals. Several countries have run out of oil entirely for years. SPY is at 900, no, 950 after the latest rumblings of a deal.

It’s crazy the Vita was basically a PS2.75 within the same generation as the PS3 and it didn’t even have to be a fat fucking chungus like modern PC handhelds. I miss that rate of advancement 😔

I am standing in front of the torment nexus (the Colorado DMV)

Specifically I keep learning that rules/laws available on state DMVs websites don’t matter because private title companies licensed by their state that we work with just accept things that they shouldn’t. I don’t know for sure what is going on, but what’s the point of having the rules then

Me on social media: haha yeah numbers fuckstein, bureaucrats are under appreciated and society runs on excel! Me at work: bureaucracy is literally pointless nothing actually matters society does just run on vibes and we should acknowledge that instead of keeping up the charade

The more I’m exposed to just incidental little glimpses into other parts of this industry, the more I’m convinced it couldn’t actually exist if people followed the rules. Like, if people actually followed the rules it would quickly become so annoying people would riot or stop buying cars.

First fucking file of the day and the VIN inspection listed the car as a sedan when the existing title and everything else says coupe!!! And I had to tell the dealer to tell the buyer to get another one!! WHY do people find it so hard to do these forms. Jesus Christ. I’m going to explode.

I’m so annoyed at this point I think I would personally feel humiliated if I ever had to let my car be subjected to a VIN inspection 💀 At least when I transferred my car to CO it was the same DMV agent that filled out the paperwork that issued the title so they couldn’t reject their own work…

VINs have had a check digit so they can literally tell you if they have an error for over 40 years now. I would love to talk to the government statisticians who calculated out how many VIN errors VIN inspections would catch vs the economic cost of VIN inspections. Just poke their brain a little.

Whenever governments deputize licensed vehicle dealers to do VIN inspections, it’s mostly specified that it’s the service department/mechanics that have to do them. WHY. They are unequivocally the LEAST qualified people to do them. Filling out VIN inspections is way more about knowing how the state

In the least Republican/libertarian coded way, the DMV is a stupid deliberately inefficient government jobs program for the most slack jawed morons alive. I’m so fucking sick of THE GOVERNMENT filling out forms REQUIRED by THE GOVERNMENT incorrectly and me having to explain what’s wrong.

“Where are you from?” “Palmyra” “Like Syria?” “No, Lebanon”

I understand the incentive towards gullibility, you get rewarded for making the bet before everyone else. But still, lol, lmao.

It’s funny to me that the point of notarization is “a professional witness witnessed the signing of this document to ensure the signers are who they say they are” and the Alaska DMV is the singular DMV in the country that requires the date on a power of attorney to match the notary date.

Thank god for buy now pay later I can finally afford this 🥳

Thanks

>neither a department >nor motorized >nor a vehicle

Arizona somehow on the front line against dealerships (Lucid uses their Arizona dealership license to bypass direct to consumer bans in other states and Carvana also uses an AZ dealership license for their business). Also huh, neat. I think I’ve seen Carvana on a Certificate of Origin (ie a

Buying a car across state lines here 😩🤌

In theory I agree EV drivers have to pay for the roads too and the gas tax was how we did that. But a lot of states already have these fees (believe me, I have to ask dealers for money bc they forgot a car was a hybrid when running our quote all the time 🙃) the way it stacks seems disproportionate

I’m afraid you’ve grungled your last transfeminine social circle, pardner. This discord ain’t big enough for the both of us.

I started Uncharted Golden Abyss bc I’m clearing out my backlog on my other devices while my desktop is out of commission and its still wild to me Vita games really could look almost as good as the PS3. Like it was basically a Steam Deck for its time. I will never forgive consumers for it failing 😔

Soldier worship is so grating. I think the military is very important and necessary and should be respected but having such a clear record of being enthusiastic about what you did and then going all "my voice should matter more bc I'm a veteran" is just so craven.

You can tell the Republican base of support is car dealers 🤣 (bafflingly bad at paperwork)

God I hate my stupid chud life. I barely used my desktop until it broke bc I'm just ADHD and barely played games and I've just kind of resigned myself to it's not worth RMAing my GPU again because there's no way they'd believe me. I kind of want to use my $300 in gift cards to replace my motherboard

Can most in person cash registers split between 3 or even 4 cards? I have 3 Visa gift cards from incentives at work and trying to figure out how to combine them besides just loading an Amazon balance up is surprisingly hard/all the common ways have been blocked.

I’m literally Cassandra if Cassandra only got woke about the issue after the relevant event happened. But people are finally waking up!! Colorado has the most evil clerks in the nation! Jared Polis just has a pro Hitclerk agenda regardless of context!!

Honestly some neoliberal/libertarian-but-actually-decent-and-liberal think tank should interview me about the absurdity of VIN inspections and how they’re a synecdoche of bad/wasteful government as a whole

Another day asking the dealer for another VIN inspection because the one they sent that *THE DMV* filled out was wrong!!!! We’re expelling Oregon from the union

We’ve had the 17 digit VIN that encodes the make/model/year etc for over 40 years now. So much of the other information typically on these is definitely required to be disclosed by manufacturers. Its a humiliating national embarrassment that our states treat other states like foreign countries

I really cannot emphasize enough how much I hate VIN inspectors and VIN inspections. They are either entirely pointless and don’t matter the government just needs to see you go through the motions, or they’re still entirely pointless but the DMV is simultaneously so strict *and* incompetent

Another fucking rejection because the fucking DMV couldn’t fill out their own fucking VIN inspection properly and my naive ass always defers to them if I’m unsure/it’s a gray area since it’s their fucking form. I hate these mouth breathers so much.

Lmfao. When the grifter desperately wants things to be worse.

Wait what, the presidential car has DC plates instead of federal government plates (which are a thing)? Why not?? Deeply funny to me that someone has to renew the registration on the president's car. DMVs do tend to get confused with non-standard things so I wonder if a clerk ever messed it up

If the DMV is able to review a VIN inspection and say “the information on this is wrong” I don’t get the point of a VIN inspection. You’re not using the VIN inspection as the “source of truth” for information about the vehicle (GVWR, fuel type, etc) to begin with then! So why force people thru this

I am so fucking tempted to start writing people’s names as “first name middle name suffix last name” for CO files as malicious compliance because they’re so fucking strict about how the name has to match the DL exactly. WHY ARE IMPLICIT ASSUMPTIONS OKAY FOR THAT BUT NOT NOT WRITING THE MIDDLE NAME

What the fuck. Africa has 20% of the world’s land but only 5% of the coast. I didn’t realize the other continents being so squiggly made such a difference.

I haven’t paid much attention to this arc. Do they literally just want the reflecting pool to look like a swimming pool? Like is that their only conceptualization of what a man made “pool” should look like??
