Genuinely not sure what your implication is here. Readings I see include “Bill Clinton obviously wouldn’t be discredited,” “Bill Clinton is obviously a Democrat and also obviously a pedophile,” or maybe “Bill Clinton may be in the files, but he’s not exactly a leftist so who cares?”

Shake it three times You’re playing with yourself again

This is propaganda from people who want you to have piss stains, shake it shake it shake it!

There used to be a bot that would link to some YouTube frontend whenever a link got posted, but it almost never worked and even when it did it got downvoted constantly

Being a fascist will do that to you. (That’s Giorgia Meloni, not Philomena)

I mean, it’s a AAA game. I’m sure that was the plan, and then it was lost in the eternal crunch to meet the launch date.

There’s a reason AAA games all have that same shitty stank, and it’s not because the companies making them don’t have access to talented people.

Star Wars Battlefront!

They also edited a bunch of the stuff within the original shots. I know someone who worked on it and they were showing me some of the artifacting; the short extras in particular have had their faces absolutely destroyed, and it even added a few that weren’t there before. It’s very funny to me that they upscaled it for the Sphere, but you are ABSOLUTELY NOT meant to look directly at anything that got inserted.

More like they saw the potential to ruin most plebs’ already limited abilities to figure out wtf is happening in the world, thought they would be too smart to fall for that shit, and decided they should open Pandora’s box and sell it like it’s Prometheus’s fire

I just switched from Bazzite to Cachy today. For some reason my disk space got… clogged, with Bazzite? Filelight was no help so I backed everything up, wiped the disk, installed Cachy, replaced my files, and the disk went from being nearly full to only using 600GB. Still not sure what happened there.

Cachy, meanwhile, has asked me to update 4 times in the 4 hours I’ve been using it. Which is fine, I get that Arch is rolling release, but now on the 4th update it keep failing for some reason. Also I can’t have my headphones and speakers plugged in at the same time or my speakers don’t work.

Sigh. All this KDE stuff is nice and flashy, and my games have worked with both Bazzite and Cachy, so I appreciate that, but damn is it tough for me to make a Linux recommendation to anyone else that isn’t just “use Mint, it’s stable.” Anything more in depth turns into a mini essay (see above!)

If only, huh?

I mean, honestly, it actually might be. It’s certainly more or less how evolution did it. We’re basically programmed to have genetic drifts if the population gets too low, making more likely for the reproducing population to find a new niche. So while it would be hilariously immoral, and also probably produce A LOT more of the worst minds, you produce enough genetic freaks and eventually one of em is gonna be a megagenius

Yeah people bring this up with Jon Stewart a lot too, but we shouldn’t be trusting TV personalities. I know that elections have devolved into popularity contests so these guys have a huge head start, but it takes a very specific type of personality to get into showbiz stardom like that and I don’t see them turning around to be actual good statesmen. I know Zelenskyy gets a lot of props for being a comedian turned incredible wartime leader, but those are… extenuating circumstances. Would have been very interested to see what he would have done as a peacetime leader.

Aw fuck, I love my local Dave’s. They ran the Joella’s out of town first though…

In a similar boat, I’ve thought about that but if I ever upgraded to a stronger real centralized PC I’d have to do a bunch of Docker setup and if anything breaks my whole system would go down. As it is, with piecemeal shitass laptops each running individual services I get lots of redundancy!

i didn’t say earth was special. do you know what it takes for those elements to come together in a way that even begins to approach life? do we ever get brand new single celled organisms that have no relation to anything that currently exists? why does every organism we’ve studied seem to descend from a single ancestor if it’s so easy for life to arise from a barren soup?

we don’t even know if we arose from that soup. maybe we’re actually the aliens, delivered as a single frozen cell from some asteroid that crashed into earth. maybe! who knows! if people wanna write fanfic about the universe that’s their business, but it’s wildly frustrating how so many people pretend that fic has any scientific basis

Also, we just have literally no idea what it actually takes for life to come together. We have a sample size of one. Trying to come up with stats based on that is ridiculous, and until we actually come up with more evidence, saying either “oh there are definitely aliens” or “no there definitely aren’t” just proves to me a person’s willingness to make concrete statements on things they know nothing about.

She is not a victim. I wouldn’t care about her at all outside of “tax her so she’s not a billionaire,” except this publicity does nothing for anyone but her. Chances are she’s paying big bucks to do these interviews. I mean it’s the same move her ex has pulled the last 20 years!

Maybe she was ignorant and had no access to proof. Or maybe she’s into the same shit and wants a squeaky clean reputation to help avoid consequences. Either way, these types of articles shouldn’t be trusted, and they certainly shouldn’t be on the front page.

Literally, get a bar of gold, melt it down, press it into gold foil tissues, carve another gold bar into a tissue box, and wipe her tears. She could spend $100,000 on doing that every day for the next 800 years before running out of money.

Like if she had something genuine to add, that’d be something. You know, corroborate a victim’s story, make a call to action, “he should be in prison,” even “here’s something I’m doing to help” would still be reputation laundering but it would be something. She literally just went on to say (probably lie) that she didn’t know about it and it makes her so sad. Fucking billionaires, fuck.

Forget Melinda Gates. I was subjected to 2 minutes of her garbage NPR interview yesterday before I was able to skip it; it’s fucking crazy that this woman is being allowed to do a goddamn press tour about this, like she’s the main character. Oh, are you sad that Bill was a total piece of shit and you did nothing? Go be sad on your own time, on the miniscule chance you’re somehow not a total psycho you can go find a therapist, I’m sure you can afford one. Stop hogging media time to wash your own bullshit image. I wonder how much she donated to get them to have her on.

Meh, sometimes people need to be ignored, especially on the Internet, especially as a mod on the Internet. Only the people who disagree with you are likely to speak up in the first place
