By The Wasted Onion: Discord Announces Sending Messages Now A Nitro Exclusive Feature

SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Widening the features the instant messaging services premium subscription offering provides, Discord has announced that sending messages is now a Nitro exclusive feature. “We launched Discord over 10 years ago, since then we’ve seen our users grow what we built into something truly special for gamers everywhere. One of the key features from day one that has made this all possible is the ability to send messages. That’s why today, we’re excited to announce the latest feature exclusive to Nitro subscribers: messaging,” said the company in a blog post. “We’ve been toiling away at this for a long time, and now is the right moment. Wumpus also threatened us with a gun and held our families hostage, telling us that we must do this or see our lives go up in ashes.” At press time, local police had been dispatched to Discord Headquarters where a hostage situation was unfolding, after multiple hours of negotiation, Wumpus agreed to free the hostages if he was given the contact information for every “Discord kitten,” according to authorities.

By The Wasted Onion: Leak Claims NVIDIA To Include LSD With RTX 6060 To Help Users Hallucinate Frames

SANTA CLARA, CA—Spreading across the internet via social media and forums Monday, a leak reportedly claimed NVIDIA’s upcoming RTX 6060 graphics card would come packaged with LSD to allow users to hallucinate more frames. “The RTX 6060 is the most powerful graphics card to ever be created. It’s been engineered for performance from the ground up and is the cutting-edge in the field. Now with the newly included RTX LSD, you can alter your own senses to witness even smoother frame rates that were once thought impossible,” says internal marketing copy shared on the dark web by the leaker. “We pinkie promise we aren’t going to include LSD in any current or upcoming NVIDIA products. We’d instead use a cooler drug like crystal meth or something,” said a representative for the company to The Wasted Onion’s tech correspondent Hank Schrader. At press time, a further leak indicated that NVIDIA may also provide LSD to its AI customers so they could hallucinate “their AI products doing something actually goddamn useful,” according to the leaked documents.

By The Wasted Onion: European Union Opens Investigation Into Apple For Removing Screen From Upcoming iPhone 17

BRUSSELS, BELGIUM—Standing before reporters outside the Berlaymont building regarding the blocs latest crackdown on what it sees as technological gatekeepers, a spokesperson for the European Union announced it has opened an investigation into U.S. tech giant Apple after it announced its upcoming iPhone 17 would not have a screen. “This latest iPhone is our best yet. It’s the culmination of everything we strive for at Apple; simplicity, accessibility, beauty. It’s truly magical. The reason to remove the display: courage. The courage to move on and do something new that betters all of us,” said CEO Tim Cook at a keynote debuting the device while waving his hands in vague grandiose gestures. “Do I really need to explain this? Of course we’re going to fucking look into fining these lunatics. If keyboards were removed from laptops we’d all agree that's stupid. Oh shit I think we just gave them another idea on what to remove next,” said the spokesperson outside the European Commission while looking visibly tired. Speaking to The Wasted Onion’s technology editor Clippy, a spokesperson for the company said that the EU was “standing in the way of enshittification - no crap I meant innovation,” before scurrying away and putting on an Apple Vision Pro to avoid further questions.

By The Wasted Onion: Wasteof Users Declare War On Each Other Over Whether They Like Coleslaw Or Not

THE INTERNET—Finding themselves embroiled in verbal trench warfare and having to choose a side in an ever escalating online conflict, wasteof.money users declared war on each other Thursday over whether they like coleslaw or not. “I am formally declaring war against all you coleslaw enjoying motherfuckers, I am going to destroy you all. I swear that stuff is like if pencil shavings were drenched in mayonnaise. I’d rather eat a bowl of rusty nails,” said a post from user @thrat. “Uh oh, incorrect opinions are out on the offensive today, huh? Come on guys, coleslaw is peak! And if you disagree then you are my mortal enemy and I will ensure that you never find peace for the rest of your fucking miserable life, this is WAR,” declared noted coleslaw fan @han in another post. Both factions began taking more drastic measures, such as burning down restaurants that serve the side dish or consuming any they could find as more users were drafted into the ranks of the slaw haters or lovers, resulting in the tragic death of user @da-ta after being caught in the crossfire of a bowl of coleslaw being thrown between two ground troops of the lovers and haters tussling to either throw out or eat the coleslaw. At press time, the United Nations announced a peacekeeping mission to wasteof owner Jeffalo’s home to dismantle the Dell OptiPlex hosting the social media site to end the bloodshed.

By The Wasted Onion: ‘I Am The Alpha. You Are The Betas,’ Says Gen Alpha Toddler In Nursery Of Gen Beta Toddlers

LEICESTER, ENGLAND—Crawling atop a box of LEGO bricks to assert dominance amongst his fellow classmates, 3-year-old gen alpha toddler Nathan Brandol reportedly said “I am the alpha. You are the betas,” in his nursery class of gen beta toddlers. “Me is the dominant, you is the submissives. You blue pilled, me red pilled. Me is sigma male, you is cucks,” said the young boy according to eyewitness accounts, while reportedly also babbling and giggling when any noise was made in the colourful classroom scattered with toys and copies of The Matrix brought by Mr. Brandol in his Paw Patrol backpack. “I’ve been doing word searches with Nathan to help him with his spelling and I was quite surprised when he spelt out ‘women like you belong in the kitchen’ by circling the letters in order while staring at me,” said Nursery teacher Emma Farrow to The Wasted Onion’s UK education editor Reporty McJournface. According to further witnesses present at the scene, Mr. Brandol later on in the day attempted to assert his perceived gen alpha dominance over his gen beta classmates by shitting his pants and screaming “censor this snowflakes!” before returning to his iPad to watch Andrew Tate alpha male training videos with Baby Shark playing in the background.
