Yeah, at least they don’t violate conservation of matter like the Dooplers appear to.

Ugh, I feel you. One is too many, 12 isn’t enough.
I never really thought about it, but you’re right, the Dooplers are too over the top and only make sense in a cartoon context.
The Pandronians from TAS and LD (the species that effectively have three independent parts) also make no sense outside of a cartoon.
Been listening to the 5-4 podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks and it’s been partisan bullshit forever, but yeah Citizens United will probably be considered the death of American Democracy (even though it was terminally ill beforehand).
The Court will literally just make up rules out of thin air to justify whatever the fuck they want.
What are you going to criticize Republicans for? Sure, they’re morally bankrupt and destroying the country, but they’re doing exactly what their dipshit voters asked for and succeeding beyond their wildest dreams.
Democrats are the ones who are being laughably inept at what they claim to want.
Flak cannon all the way, but I spent many days in high school instagibbing my friends so the shock rifle does hold a special place in my heart.
Certain ones, like music trackers, can still be interviewed into. Once you get into an initial tracker and establish yourself, it becomes easier to find / get into new ones via forum invites. It’s a long road but barring a time machine it’s the easiest way.
I dunno, maybe I just had crappy indexers but usenet was always more miss than hit for me. Maybe it’s superior to public torrents but private trackers are the gold standard.
The way the first paragraph is written made me think this is a garbage AI article, but I guess it was a joke. I hate this future.
The mistreatment of the yuppies is my favorite part of that movie. When she opens the door and gets attacked by the squirrel and then the dog, or when the icicle destroys their stereo I crack up every time.
I’m with you, I’m having a blast, but I think the reactions are because of the idea that it would be a Skyrim type game and… It’s not really even trying to be that. Like you said, it’s an ARPG, the roleplaying is basically just dialogue and most of the game is really well done exploration and combat.
Ground level infrastructure meaning the ability to get people out to do anything from marching to rioting to picketing to canvassing to voting. The Civil Rights movement wouldn’t have gotten anywhere if it hadn’t actually mobilized people and thus made people aware of / afraid of organized resistance. The Black Panthers deserve a lot of credit as well for being the armed hard core of the movement.
We’d get a lot more of what we want peacefully if oligarchs were afraid we’d rally and fuck up their businesses bottom lines AND that they might get assassinated by radicals.
In my experience that’s a very appropriate boner.
I was sort of with you on the ocean stuff, swimming there isn’t really a substitute for a lifejacket, but swimming being for the privileged is a weird take.
If you don’t have access to a body of water for free, then public pools are usually cheaper than a movie ticket. You don’t need any equipment, all you need is one person that kinda half way knows how to swim and is willing to point you in the right direction.
My kid bought me a Back to the Future DeLorean for my birthday, about 2000 pieces.
Initially I thought it was kind of a mis-gift, something they would enjoy more than me since I hadn’t built a set since they were small and needed my help, but I made it a point to crack it open instead of letting it sit and it turned out to be quite enjoyable.

I organize with Drafthouse in Austin and they did the same here a week or two ago. Just blatant union busting in the guise of layoffs.
They can’t run a candidate that can win because that would require a platform that steps on too many donors’ toes.
GNOME 3 introduced the current shell paradigm where you don’t really have a start menu but a variety of searches, integrated indicators, per-app desktops with a dock etc.
Before, it was far more conventional experience like Plasma/Windows/Cinnamon are now. GNOME 2 was forked to be the MATE desktop if you want to check it out.
Wikipedia says from Portuguese, through Persian, back to Sanskrit, being the grand daddy of English, calling it “cina”, and/or it has to do with Qin Dynasty that unified China.
Probably better than whatever bullshit they would have gotten from Zhongguo if “Peking” was as good as they could do with “Beijing”
