!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Aren't they actually third rate hacks in universe and install whatever with close to zero clue on what they actually doing?
My understanding of the actual tabletop lore is that basically for every decent ripper you're likely to encounter as a player there's easily a dozen that are like what you describe.
...is that where they get the ripper part of their title?
Nah I assume that's from the part of the job where they rip old bits out to put shiny new chrome in.
