Some older male is using my husband's name in social media profiles

So, I understand that some people can have the same name, but this isn’t the case with my husband. My husband’s name is so unusually spelled that he was the only person, besides his biological father, who had that first and last name combination on a birth certificate. This is a fact that he shared with me when we first...

amio,

Welp. If SO had been usable for the past decade, that would've been a real blow.

amio,

Nah. The pattern is cool as hell though.

amio,

Arguably best way to counter misinformation is non-platforming it. Mere provable facts and impeccable logic have a dogshit success rate.

amio,

Then what's your counter?

amio,

Disproving them can work

No

amio,

Dpad for games that were intended for dpad, analog if the game was intended for analog.

Analog for dpad games feels awkward in my experience, and dpad for analog games is not even an option.

amio,

No, I just try to. My blocklist is like forty miles at this point

Edit: always entertaining to read rationalizations of "exposing myself to the constant depressing drudgery of political news coverage is like a moral imperative or some shit" btw

amio,

What, that's bad too now? What are the supposed... implications?

amio,

Great, even getting this spam on like page 3 now.

amio,

This comments section. So much for this place being more civil than Reddit, lmfao

amio,

That is just every country, countries would hardly try to look worse than they are.

amio,

"The American dream" was socioeconomic mobility, that shit is for commies these days.

amio,

This place is noticeably more anticorporate - which makes sense because corporations tend to be dicks - and leftist. Enshittification is a fairly apt term for what goes on.

amio,

Yes, they are tankies. Arguably tankies are No True Leftist or they wouldn't be fellating right-wing regimes, but at least purportedly and self-identified...ly... they are not only "leftist" but "Communist", ML is Marxism-Leninism after all.

amio,

At least I have one

amio,

Nothing at all, if it's been maintained and "upkept" much better than theirs has. But, y'know.

Starfield is starting to seem pretty spackled together, and the engine was already sort of infamous for bugs. It's not just BSW being sloppy about content (although they are), it's also the engine and tooling. The CKs tend to look... grim.

amio,

handwaved it away as perfectly normal and expected

"Yes, but space is boring and therefore it's realistic" is still one of my favorite excuses for a game.

amio,

Scientists and other rationalists. If you wanted to be dramatic, their fight to save ourselves and the planet would be against the inertia of "common wisdom", known bugs in human psychology, the resistance of wanting to disregard the unknown or unpleasant, everyone for whom the truth (to the best of our knowledge) is economically inconvenient with the considerable economic and societal power they wield.

They are not good odds, but it is correct against incorrect and often against malignantly incorrect, and they are all extremely formidable villains.

amio,

What do you mean, "nowadays"? Mobile games always sucked.
