I miss the days when companies smugly lying to our faces wasn’t the norm (or at least, wasn’t this bad).

Fuck you Ubisoft.

Yup, and there’s some other conditions that would benefit from an immediate recall, too. It’s insane that the consequence for failing to pass a budget or raise the debt ceiling is that our financial system is damaged or collapses. Failure to get it done in a timely manner should result in an automatic extension or raise paired with snap elections on all members involved.

Or hell, even just allow recall petitions at the federal level. Better to have a revolving door than a legislature that’s tempted to see what touching the third rail is like.

I’m honestly more surprised there’s more blood to squeeze from that stone, Texas is already comically disconnected electorally from the people that live there

Bro. AWS can do jack shit, that’s not how it works. You might as well call Toyota next time you see a Camry speeding. All you’re going to do is annoy people who in no way can help you with a problem that is your responsibility. I can guarantee they’ll tell you you should use private VPCs and entrypoints with security groups, which is what every AWS tutorial starts out by telling you to use.

I mean, the article still makes sense, just like all the articles about Bolsonaro revoking protections for the Amazon make sense, it cumulatively affects everyone, even if you’re on the other side of the planet

Agreed. There’s lots of shit in this bill that is awful and will take decades of work to undo, but this is one of those terrible things that can’t be undone. Once the genie is out of the bottle, that’s it, goodbye public lands.

Praise when praise is due. Scorn when scorn is due. Hold on to your anger and give them double hell when they next fuck up, but weakening them while they’re in the swing of doing the right thing hurts us all.

Claire Obscur had an amazing water level where the entire point is that it wasn’t a water level – you could run around on land freely, everything just looked underwater.

Well that’s half the problem – nothing is going to shut down this time, excess deaths and long-term complications are going bust through the ceiling.

“Too much care” is great if you’re fine with passing up on the alliteration

980g, no calculations, just riding off the coattails of people who did more work than me.

Super fun, watching our president reject every possible off-ramp with hostility only to later freak out and panic when there are no more off-ramps left. Fucking moron

I’m not sure if it’s fast enough, but the Planck length does reemerge for everyone else at relativistic speeds, so using CJ as the frame of reference, there is a yeeting where he might “skip” the stratosphere like a rock being skipped across the pond.

FFS Microsoft, just put out a functional OS. I even really liked the Windows 11 Beta/RC, but what it became once commercialized got me to switch to Fedora on my main PC and swear off getting another Surface.

I would honestly want the hardware division split as well. There’s still an impetus to turn Android into a walled garden there, too.

“DROP THE BEANS AND PUT YOUR HANDS UP!”

This only gets better if the guilty members of the government get locked up for contempt for ignoring the court’s original order. Only then, especially if it gets Signalgate attention, may they start to cave. I realize it’s unlikely, but it’s not a 0% chance yet.

It was a seriously underrated game, my main complaints were too much clunky combat and not nearly enough indoor areas. It felt like I had to run the same outdoor loops dozens of times for what should be serious missions.

Edit: I really think the combat could’ve been awesome with some Ratchet & Clank style gadgets. Not the guns, but the things like the bundle of mini-robots that chase and attack enemies, or the sentry device you throw that slows down/freezes enemies. Feels like a good way to keep the asymmetric fighting where they have actual weapons but you need to be strategic.
