OscarRobin,

Most Americans are too dumb to realize the allegory in ATLA.

OscarRobin,

The Dalai Lama references are from the Air Nomads, not Fire Nation

OscarRobin,

I feel the same despite having it for three years or so - I think it’s because I can count the number of PS5 games I’ve played on it on one hand…

Valve's iFixit partnership is a game changer (sh.itjust.works)

I dropped my launch edition steam deck last night on carpet and while all the buttons still worked- something was rattling inside of it. After I opened it up I discovered a missing chunk of plastic from the R2 trigger, that piece presses against another to keep the button from over articulating. I suspect this trigger absorbed...

OscarRobin,

It’s cos they’re privately owned and so don’t necessarily have to be shit, where publicly owned companies are legally required to maximize profits for shareholders.

OscarRobin,

Messenger because everyone I know is on there.

OscarRobin,

I am 100% certain it will be worth it. FROM have never half-assed a game nor expansion, Elden Ring least of all.

OscarRobin,

I think it’s awesome that different Batman stories can examine different versions of Bruce and his position as a billionaire - it allows different aspects of the world to be interrogated: criminals sometimes doing crime because they know of no other way to survive in a capitalist hellscape, the apathies of billionaires to the evils of their financiers, Batman’s obsession with order leasing him to militarise the streets of the city he loves, etc.

OscarRobin,

It’ll almost certainly not run very well, but I still played 100hr of the base game despite its poor performance. I preordered too because I know regardless of technical state it will be worth playing.

OscarRobin,

First time I’d ever seen him host such a show and I now understand why everybody loves him - he was excellent.

‘A 1-year-old could get an abortion under this’ bill: far-right GOP lawmaker (www.rawstory.com)

A far-right Republican state senator explaining his opposition to a bill that would grant an abortion exception for rape or incest told his fellow lawmakers, a “1-year-old could get an abortion under this.”Senator Bill Eigel, a pro-Trump Republican who is also running to become Missouri's next governor

OscarRobin,

If a 1yo was raped and somehow impregnated, they would literally and absolutely die if they did not receive an abortion. In absolutely no way does this disgusting moron make any sense.

OscarRobin,

If they added automatic online account collation and mass deletion I’d pay them $100 on the spot to wipe the hundreds of random accounts I have on sites/services I never use and often have never used.

OscarRobin,

Also they just released PSVR 2 and promptly abandoned it in terms of first party stuff, again. No reason to think they’d actually commit this time.

OscarRobin,

Apples actually generally pretty good at not wasting much screen space.

OscarRobin,

Yeah I have the dBrand Grip on my Pixel 7 Pro and it’s very high quality. Very durable, perfectly shaped to the phone, and even has lowered sides to account for the stupid curved screen etc. Never been disappointed with purchases from them.

OscarRobin,

I work from home an average of 4ish hours per day, with plenty of breaks whenever I feel like it, and I’m one of the most productive people at my company of 50 employees - many of whom go into the office regularly.

Trump’s Cash Stockpile at Risk From $450 Million Dual Verdicts (www.bloomberg.com)

Donald Trump is facing a pair of major legal verdicts in New York that risk wiping out most — if not all — of the cash the billionaire says he has on hand, a potential blow to the presidential candidate whose persona is tied up with financial success and wealth....

OscarRobin,

Being poor doesn’t stop people from voting though. In fact being broke because you’ve given everything to conmen who tell you it’s the other people’s fault may actually increase votership of those people.

OscarRobin,

I feel like posts like these always fail to realize how fucked of a situation US ‘democracy’ is in where you must vote for one shitty candidate because the other is literally a fascist.

Like no actually some people have decided that the entire system is untenable - they no there’s a lesser of two evils, but they refuse to partake of an illegitimate system.

OscarRobin,

Both support genocide yes, though genocide is not the same as fascism even if the latter almost always does the former.

OscarRobin,

“a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition”

Genocide is almost always committed by fascist regimes, but in and of itself it is unrelated to the political system/philosophy. You could theoretically have a perfect democracy where the people vote to genocide another culture and it would not suddenly make their political system fascistic.

OscarRobin,
  1. Ubuntu wants to own snap, with their own proprietary store etc which runs against alternatives like Flatpak and goes against the FOS ethos
  2. Snap is slower and worse than Flatpak (the most popular alternative) in most ways, with very few pros that will likely be caught-up-to soon too
OscarRobin,

Especially since those with the most power do everything possible to maintain at least the illusion of growth, to further increase their power.

OscarRobin,

I’m 120hr in and honestly still love it. I still do wish there was a lot more variance in music though for sure.

OscarRobin,

Linux Mint is definitely the closest interface- and vibes-wise to XP imo, of the big distros worth considering
