I still don’t understand the point of making every game have a shitty launcher. I mean, I can understand MMO’s for updating the actual game and shit, but why the fuck do single player games have them?

I doubt its good quality healthcare, and you’ll probably still be forced into slave labor, only being paid 7.5cents an hour instead of 7.50 an hour.

They want to get rid of the only thing that keeps 90% of people working at shit jobs, thats some real consultant level smarts right there.

Its a small convection oven, that works more efficiency because the heating element is like an inch above the food, and heating a very tightly confined area, so intense temperatures can be more concentrated and easily achieved.

Many countries have HoA’s.
Why America has them is, simply put, racism. HoA’s got started after WW2, specifically to keep non-white people from moving into white neighborhoods.

I’d rather have a shit neighbor with an overgrown yard than some wannabe dictator who alienated their children and takes out their hatred on the neighborhood with bullshit fines and harassment.

Racism.
Thats literally it.
HoA’s became a major thing after WW2, in large part, to keep black people from moving into white neighborhoods… with rare exceptions for “servants”.
- Comment on Minimum wage isn't survivable anymore 6 days ago:
This is also why the powers that be drug their heels and took 10 years to implement the 15 dollar minimum wage.
because htey knew that by the time they did, it would solve nothing due to inflation and cost of living rises.
So they got the brownie points for passing it, but still have the desperate, manipulable base thats one bad month away from losing everything.

No, I think you denying reality because of sunk cost fallacy has said enough.

Which is bull, because we’ve been playing games from our couches for like 40 years and there were beautiful, amazing, wonderful graphics long before the 4k propaganda.

i miss when GPUs just rendered the game, and that was all.
None of this upscaling, AI graphics altering bullshit that is there ultimately to distract from the impotent promises of 4k gaming, which is unnecessarily ridiculous to begin with.

yep, all of the mythos about having to baby delicate cast iron basically came from the era of lye soap. . soap isnt caustic anymore, so as long as you dry it when its done (or throw it in a warm oven to dry off) you’ll be fine.

All spots have particularly awful cops.

book in your car without having the cops hassle you.
is this a reference to that video of the guy waiting out the rain in a gas station parking lot by reading a book in his car?
or is this a more common genre than i realize.

- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 week ago:
yes, thats what i just said.
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 week ago:
Most homeless people just need help because they are victims of circumstance. Give them an apartment with a few months of rent paid up, a few months food and doctors visits/medical coverage, and they’ll have enough breathing room to get back on their feet, find a job, and take over the rent on the apartment.
and that 3 months of help, and small investment, will turn them back into a working citizen paying back into the system and have them off the streets, out of shelters, and back out of the social safety net.
and its been proven multiple times that doing this is not just the morally right choice, its the financially smart choice.
But in America we don’t care about doing the moral thing. We don’t care about doing the financially wise thing.
We care about punching down at the less fortunate and more vulnerable. Which is why systems like this will never come to fruition. Which is why homelessness which is wholly an artificially manufactured issue, will never be a solved issue.

- Comment on Groceries are expensive and they're too busy talking about culture war 2 weeks ago:
Sorry to reply to my own post…
but everything from the right (even back before the party flip, because it doesnt matter what the label was, they were still the same assholes) is nothing but culture war shit.
Segregation was a culture war. A culture war that they ultimately loss, and while its terrifying ramifications are far from over even today, they did admit defeat on it… Which is why leaders held secret meetings, of which there are recordings of, to figure out what the next hateful wedge issue would be… and they came upon abortion… and even they struggled with deciding on abortion, because literally no one gave a flat fuck about abortion outside the catholics, and they were mocked for caring about abortion.
But they decided Abortion was their best bet for the continuing culture war bullshit, so they went whole hog on it, and within a year ministers and priests and politicians and the whole propaganda machine churned into action and suddenly gave a fuck about abortion and declared it the great evil of our time
and that went on for 50+ years, until they started losing the battle on Abortion… and just like they did when they lost the battle on segregation, they had to come up with a new cultural wedge issue, because they cant argue on actual politics and records because their politics are as awful as their goddamn records… And what did they land on? Trans people. Who are the new desegregation, the new abortion. And just like every time previous, they want to inflame hate to trick gullible idiots into voting for them out of fear.
and trans people existing is such a weak fucking wedge issue, that they are trying to go back to segregations racist arguments, with trying to be oOoOoOo big spooky about black people existing, or spreading blatant lies about them eating all the dogs and birds, or that the brown people are here to rape our women and take our jobs, and all the other tired tropey bullshit.
Fear fear fear FEAR FEAR. Thats all it boils down to. Trying to convince sheltered idiots to fear what they havent experienced. to fear who they don’t know. to fear everything that is unknown.
Beacuse as long as people are drowning in adrenaline fueled fear, they’ll never stop to look around them and realize its all fucking bullshit and admit they’ve been duped and lied too.
