  • That’s… not really accurate. All the stuff with the Krogan and Rachni happened centuries prior to humanity making contact. What the story does hint is that humans are not the only ones with racist tendencies. (After rereading, this may have been what you were trying to say)

    Humanity butts up against Batarian space and, due to their own conflicts with the galactic political paradigm, that race had shifted to a more hostile system of governance that freely allowed slavery and piracy and the like because everyone else was inferior.

    Naturally, we hate them because they hate us.



  • Bittorrent is a file sharing protocol, which isn’t inherently dangerous. The ‘torrent’ contains the information that’s being passed around to allow connectivity to that particular file. This is also not inherently dangerous as that information is very specific and limited… and doesn’t allow any other user to browse the rest of your computer.

    What may be dangerous is downloading a file that contains malware or viruses via a torrent. Use reputable sites and keep your security software up to date. Better yet, use a different computer for this activity with a vpn.




  • I’ve seen this over and over in corporate environments.

    Suit A has a terrible idea but enough fawning bootlickers to get the process moving.

    Worker A, an employee, knows this is a terrible idea but doesn’t say anything because they wanna keep their job.

    Contractor B, obv a contractor, is there to make money and hopefully turn their stint into something more, so they speak up. And get canned.

    What is it about Suits that they can’t listen to literally anyone but their own echo chambers? Oh yeah, they’re angling to jump into a bigger echo chamber. The 1%.
