Most tragically of all, Ogre doesn’t know that this matches, or even eclipses, Joyce’s own understanding.
Reckless and incompetent expounders of Holy Scripture bring untold trouble and sorrow on their wiser brethren when they are caught in one of their mischievous false opinions and are taken to task by those who are not bound by the authority of our sacred books. For then, to defend their utterly foolish and obviously untrue statements, they will try to call upon Holy Scripture for proof and even recite from memory many passages which they think support their position, although they understand neither what they say nor the things about which they make assertion.
— St. Augustine of Hippo, 394 CE

sarsaparilyptusto Starfield@lemmy.zip•Starfield Goes Gold, Preload Available Tomorrow - FullClearedEnglish1·2 years agoOh, they’re prepared. Bethesda already has the “We’re doing our best, the patch is coming soon, all video games launch with bugs” statement ready. The “The bugs aren’t even that bad, gamers are so fucking entitled” statement has already been written as well.
Naturally, they’ve also already written out the heartfelt “Please stop sending us death threats over this” statement, soon to be followed by my personal favorite: the “We were framed” statement, after people inevitably post screenshots showing how all the death threats each developer’s Twitter account gets are identical except for the ones that say “as an AI I cannot send hateful messages”.

Sucks that this even needs to be said.
In real life, this often tends to be
for bisexuals and a borderline Klan rally against trans people. LGBTQ has an issue with weirdos who want to remove one or all of the other letters, especially the B and the T.
