It was already bad enough that we're stuck trying to use a trash OS to run our games and soul-sucking corporate crap, but now we have to ditch our customization tools to get updates that we need?
Speaker Johnson told Newsmax on Monday he was fulfilling the “commitment” he made to release to the public all the video Congress has from the January 6 insurrection, and had recently released 13,000 hours of tape — though he had initially tried to blur the faces of the “innocent.”
“So I made a commitment immediately after I got the gavel that we would start with this and that originally, we were trying to blur some of the faces to protect the innocent, you know, people who were just there and just happened to be walking through the building,” Johnson told Newsmax’s Eric Bolling.
Just ordinary everyday Republican censorship, you know.
I have memories of FO3 being amazing, but when I try to start a second playthrough, it just feels like a slog and it doesn't pull me back into the groove....
For me, the mods keep the game from becoming too punishing. FNV needs a lot of mods to keep the bugs and the invisible walls from killing your game. FO3 and FO4 need quest fixes and additional quest mods to keep them interesting.
I don't see how this will solve any of these problems he talks about. If he thinks a few bad faith accusations are impossible to tolerate, he's really going to be unprepared for the death threats devs in closed-source companies constantly receive.
"The longer the war goes on, the more territory Russia will gain until they hit the Dnipro, which is tough to overcome. However, if the war lasts long enough, Odesa will fall too," Elon Musk said on X.
That’s the right penalty for an ex-president who has been mouthing off in the Stormy Daniels hush money case. He can’t easily be sent to prison without making him a martyr. But picking up beer cans is perfect.

More than 50% of Russians believe that Ukrainian leadership is responsible for the shooting at the Crocus City Hall concert hall outside Moscow, the Financial Times (FT) reported, citing a survey by OpenMinds, an Anglo-Ukrainian online pollster.
Interesting how FT keeps repeating questionable assertions that make Ukraine seem like the bad guys.
To be fair, the book of Revelations is considered apocryphal to most pre-KJV Christians.
Jesus did warn that people would pretend to be him, though. Don the liar certainly promotes himself as a modern Jesus in many blasphemous ways, and nationalist/conservative (i.e. stupid) "Christians" support that position.
In an interview with the Washington Post published on March 29, President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed disagreement with the United States' response to Ukraine's strikes on Russian oil refineries, emphasizing that Ukraine has the right to use its own weapons for self-defense.

Why is no one questioning who these mysterious "sources" are that are claiming to speak for the entire US? It's obvious to me that they do not speak for us, and no one in the government will confirm anything some anonymous scumbag piece of cowardly shit says.
During a meeting with Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal in Tallinn on April 3, Estonian President Alar Karis reaffirmed support for Ukraine's attacks on military targets in Russia, stating that it was "perfectly legitimate for the Ukrainian forces to destroy infrastructure critical to the Russian army."
Ukraine’s armed forces could soon be forced to retreat further if U.S. military aid continues to be delayed, President Volodymyr Zelensky has said, as he called on Washington to provide more long-range missiles to strike airfields in occupied Crimea.
Putin's minions in this country haven't quite capitulated yet. For all you Trump supporters, "capitulate" means to give up. Remember this when the noose comes for you.
This same session will also include details on “new experiences for Arm-powered Windows this year, such as intelligent Windows apps that leverage rich capabilities of the NPU.”
