Are we still under the assumption that Republican voters care about infedelity? Donald Trump has been their god king for a decade now and he’s the least faithful husband in America. Obviously this kind of thing is not shifting views in any way.
So they only forced everyone into their ecosystem for seven years and once they cornered their market they gave back the illusion of choice? That’s cool I guess but that’s explicitly the opposite of what I mean when I say freedom of choice, open source, DRM free, etc.
Yeah this guy is on some Apple fanboy shit if he thinks iTunes was drm free. Their shitty design for iTunes and decision to force you to use it despite it making the experience of listening to music much worse is the primary reason an ipod is the only Apple device I’ve ever owned. Freedom of choice and Apple have never mixed. That’s such a weird angle to take when describing them.
How will the police, or anyone else, know about the crimes if no one reports them?
I don’t get the hesitation for these victims to bring this up before now. Sure, right when it happened it could be tough to come forward, but you sit on this info all the way through the Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Eppstein, #MeToo era? Why would you do that when you know it’s still happening to other people?
I’ve got a pair of these that I like. They do the job as described. They’re not great at anything else but I like them for laying in bed.
What’s the alternative? AI is telling people to eat glue so that isn’t a viable option imo. I don’t think anything else exists that isn’t human managed, although I’m not entirely sure what you mean by that.
Cool, so no plan then, nice. Good luck.
Yes guns are used to shoot people in the face in war. What’s odd about that to you?
We get it, you don’t like guns and you don’t think they have any place in society. However, you haven’t made any other statements than that. In this hypothetical situation that’s looking more and more like our future reality every day, your plan to resist fascism is what exactly? Because at the end of the day I think you know that having a gun opens up more options than you would otherwise have and you’re just having a hard time picturing guns in any other context than you’re used to talking about them in.
Cops have families too. Generals need to buy groceries. There are plenty of ways to resist a fascist government given the proper motivation. Firearms are just one (pretty effective when used correctly) way to accomplish that goal.
Vietnam and Afghanistan are both great examples of how a guerilla force with access to primarily small arms can force a much more powerful army to expend so many resources fighting a war of attrition that it eventually becomes untenable to continue. It’s not glamorous or particularly quick but it’s an option that isn’t on the table if the most resistance you can muster is trying to get close enough to stab the right people.
The uncertainty you’re expressing is why the 2nd amendment exists. Trump is exactly the type of person the founding fathers had in mind when they wrote it.
You’re assuming they give a shit what you think about their actions. I don’t think that’s true at all. We’ve been in the “what are you going to do about it” phase of authoritarianism for a while now.
$600 million / 55,000 claims = ~$10,000
Not a great deal imo but not exactly $3 either
I’m not saying it’s not possible that the Sims franchise has gotten worse. I’m just saying that lots of people would have described every Sims game in the same terms OP did. I’m also saying that your tastes and preferences can change over time. It’s possible, but certainly not the only option, that these two things are more true than it is that Sims is getting worse.
There’s nothing fun about the game, and you see people streaming it, it’s just building. That’s all they are ever doing. Just building crap.
To be fair, that’s always been a reasonable description of games like Sims, Minecraft, and most other simulation style games, depending on personal preference. Maybe the fact that you’re choosing to use it now means you aren’t as interested in that style of game, or even video games in general, as you used to be. Maybe not, but I think it’s worth considering at least.
Europe is going to be a shitshow in the coming decades no matter what direction voters are trending. We’re all talking about this as if it’s primarily a political issue and it just isn’t. Climate change is already fucking our shit up and that’s going to get exponentially worse. Desperate people don’t care about imaginary lines on a map.
We can’t even deal with a comparatively small amount of migrants without backsliding into the same kind of fascism that our grandparents had to invent nuclear bombs to subdue 80 years ago. There’s no way we’re going to deal with what’s coming in a rational way.
I think pre post-apocalypse is just the apocalypse. If you read the news these days that sounds like a pretty accurate description of the time we’re living in. We’re all just pretending it hasn’t started yet.
Hey now that’s not fair. AI can randomize your music playlists, summarize an email, write terrible code, steal others work, and completely invade your privacy.
What’s that? Oh, I guess you’re right, we could do all that stuff already.
Every once in a while they get faced with a line on a chart somewhere so unbelievably vertical that they have no choice but to look beyond next quarter. Power consumption going 10x in 2 years is one of those times.
If you’re part of the beans on toast clan then you can still shush it. This is 10x the flavor of that survival ration. You would be lucky to have this masterpiece grace your mouth with its juices.
