The crab, damn.

It’s perfectly reasonable for PC gamers who use the Steam platform, which provides copy protection, to be annoyed by having to sign onto services they otherwise would never use. There is no purpose to it aside from marketing and data collection.

I spent a few months last year running Nobara. I’m back on Windows unfortunately. There are a ton of games that ran just fine, but there’s also a lot of little issues. For example, in Grim Dawn I couldn’t type in chat, in Pathfinder WotR I simply couldn’t get mods to work, STALKER Anomaly simply wouldn’t load. Then there was the big issue of my mouse cursor dropping below full screen games. Still there, but not visible. The only fix I could use was to restart the computer.

It’s tantalizingly close to ready, and if you don’t care about modding it probably already is. For me it just didn’t work out, yet.

Do these folks believe that using punctuation means they are entering contract with the reader or something?

I don’t know if this is canon in their universe, but it’s delightfully ridiculous, so I’m going with it.

I don’t think the protests would be happening if the current administration wasn’t providing significant assistance in the acts of genocide being perpetrated by Israel. I’m very glad I’m not American, faced with voting for an evil man who has deep connections to genocide to prevent an evil man who will accelerate the course of the country into fascism. I am however a little concerned that my country is on the same continent.

While he obviously didn’t decide on the strategy of genocide being pursued by the Israeli state, it is very disingenuous to say he hasn’t provided important political, economic, and material support for Israel. It has been rough watching America from next door. I have always understood that MAGA is unable to confront the reality of Trumps profound insuitability for public office, or general public interaction. It’s rough seeing that there is a similar level of intentional blindness on the other side as well. It may well be that voting for Biden is a grim necessity to slow the descent into dictatorship, but honestly, pretending his role as an enabler for genocide isn’t obvious, is pretty foolish.

It’s an odd post, but I have to admit I had the same fascination. I remember finding out that she exists when the YT video I was listening to ended and, before I got my phone out of my pocket, it had auto played some girl introducing the story of a LARP theme park I had never heard of. An hour later I was heavily informed about the tale of Evermore despite giving no shits about theme parks.

I listened to a couple more of her essays on topics I have no inherent interest in, then took a closer look at her channel. I thought, I’ll add her to my Patreon list for awhile, I’ve gotten several hours of entertainment. Queue the holy shit when I ran the numbers.

Sometimes people make good stuff, and then they are financially rewarded for that. Good for her.

Edit: English better.

The preamble of the article clarifies that documents showing that his advisors told him if he kept the documents he would be charged, have been unsealed. The obvious importance being that he cannot use the defence of, “Who knew?!”

We could also use the descriptor, “anti-genocide” for these protests, but that’s a bit on the nose I guess.

I’m referring to the push by Christian fundamentalism to implement Project 2025. It would functionally result in a dictatorship guided by religious zealots. That’s why the comparison to Iran. Canada is in a very precarious position these days, unless you’re fond of joining in with the dissolution of democracy and human rights that is advancing pretty relentlessly down south.

Maybe if Ukraine could get their hands on some Palestinians, then they could parachute a few of them in at the target location first to get Biden excited about bombing. It seems to work elsewhere.

NATO really needs a revision to allow it to remove a member.

They’re not really silent, they are threatening sanctions against the ICC, have come out strongly against the request for warrants, have clarified that killing Gazan civilians cannot be equated to killing Israeli civilians, and are considering inviting Netanyahu to speak to Congress in defiance of the rule of law. I suppose that’s silence maybe?

Feels like the ultimate version of seeing an old Asian lady shopping for groceries in a t-shirt that says “I Love Anal” in English.

We will help drive out the occupiers. Huh? Oh no, you’re cool Israel. Have some bombs.

Sometimes even old enemies can be brought together by the discovery of what they have in common as opposed to what divides them. Violent atrocities against civilians for example.

Wait, I though genocide was hip again. Confusing.
