Correct. Murdering a male should be just as illegal as murdering a female.

How is it sexist?
Murdering someone due to their sex is not illegal under this law, if the victim is a male. Murdering a male due to their sex should be no less illegal.


If someone murdered a male due to their sex, would you treat that any differently than someone murdering a female due to their sex?


If perpetrators happen to be of one sex more often, then it means the rates of being charged with the relevant crime will be higher for that sex.
A crime must be treated equally, regardless of sex. The law treating one differently based on their sex is itself sexist. As I stated before, this should have been something that applies to all: ‘murdering someone due to their sex is now a hate crime’.


Exactly. This should have been something that applies to all: ‘murdering someone due to their sex is now a hate crime’.
Having the law give more consideration to one sex over another, particularly with something like murder, is quite sexist.


I’m glad we are backing away from that retarded ‘peace plan’.


I’m honestly amazed console gamers have accepted paying for multiplayer (though, I do note, PC gaming has expanded over time, I wonder why…). I had a PS2; I remember being excited about buying a PS4. It has a blu-ray player! The graphics are so much nicer! The previous gen even had free multiplayer!
I never bought a PS4, it had paid multiplayer. Fuck that.
Edit: I did briefly own a 360, the paid multiplayer was the reason I sold it fairly quickly. It felt like it was trying to milk me, and I would rather just be rid of it.


it could become the new standard for industry benchmarking/testing
Exactly. We are already seeing game companies specifically mention the Steam Deck in patch notes. This will give them a standard item to validate compatibility against. Any game company that wants to make sure their game works well will have a Steam Machine on-hand to QA with.
And I fully agree with you on benchmarking. It will be a very standardized system to point to in game reviews.


However, Steam offers numerous deals several times a year, so it will be worth the investment. In the long run, owning a Steam Machine or PC will pay for itself.
And you also don’t have to pay monthly for multiplayer!
I hate, hate, hate when I fix something and I don’t know why the fix worked (or what the fix even was…). I want my suffering to result in something learned so it doesn’t happen again.


I’m not an expert on this, but I know it’s common to use things like tranquilizers intended for farm animals.
For an external drive? I guess I have never experienced that since external drives are already pretty slow.
Yeah, you will generally have a better time with exFAT, which is a format both Windows and Linux works with well. All my external drives get formatted as such.
The money will instead be redirected to critical health care construction projects.
This seems fine.


Ah, I really like that idea.


Is there a source on this?


Weird. Do they not have the equivalent of CoinStar there? It’s a nice occasional boost when the coin jar gets full.


Time to go to your closest museum and get a penny squished and imprinted!


Melting a modern penny is actually kinda neat. The zinc on the inside melts first, which turns the whole thing into a blobby copper flask. Then at some point the copper rips and all the zinc pours out.
You can do it with any small torch.
The article very explicitly says exactly that. Murdering someone due to their sex is very explicitly treated differently now, depending on the sex of the victim.
