What is it with far right nutters trying to destroy the grid? What are they getting out of it?

The real people pushing this are lobbyists working for the companies that sell the monitoring software.

Probably still better than the fascist GOP alternatives though

They made booze from elderberries. The insult translates to "Your mother is a whore and your father is a drunk"

I think many farmers are being played for fools. They are being astroturfed by big agri businesses run by corporate billionaires.

I don't know, but I am scared for the future. It's also worrying how popular far right is under the youth. I worry about my little kids growing up ...

Federation means making copies. Hundreds of them. If you attach a copyright license to a comment then each and every instance that federates your comment would have to abide by it. That is just not possible. If you want to write stuff on the internet and copyright it, start a blog or something. By posting on the fediverse you implicitly allow copying.

They're a very vocal minority.

The entire "credit rating" system is totally insane and dystopian for people outside the US. Where I am from, we only ever register bad credit, not good credit. If you want to buy a house and need to get a mortgage they can ask for your credit rating. But that only shows how much your current obligations to other creditors are, and whether you have had trouble paying them. And you only cartain obligations are allowed to be shown on such a report.

In my country, someone with no credit card history whatsoever is in a better position to get a mortgage than someone who has a credit card and pays it off every month. The fact that the US is the reverse is just mad.

On the other hand, how dumb do you have to be to photoshop a picture and release it like that? That's just asking for the frenzy.

The US is a third world country when it comes to healthcare

What's an Ubisoft game doing here?

I was well into my 40's when my kid was born, so I've had it both ways. I vastly prefer the kid. Yes it sucks to not being able to do some stuff on occasion. It even sucks more that my parents are gone so I have a real hard time finding babysitters. But I just love the little one so damn much!

It depends, really. I turned my hobby into a profession and I am mostly happy. I lost a hobby, absolutely. I don't practice my craft much anymore outside of work, but I do have a job I really like. And I found new hobbies over the years. But yes, I did loose a hobby.

But is it no-code so I can fire all my developers?

I never understood why people run Ubuntu on servers. It's madness. Ubuntu is a fork of unstable Debian packages. You don't want unstable on your server!

Ubuntu on Desktop I can understand. Back in the days the Debian release was really long so much software was a tad outdated after a couple of years. But Debian had a much faster release cycle now, and had pretty much incorporated all the good stuff from Ubuntu and left the bad behind.

Suicide squad, a live service turd. And it flopped. Big. Meanwhile Hogwards is making tons of money as a normal single player game. So the studio does the only sane thing: they announced they are ditching single player games to focus on live service games.

I swear these companies are run by morons....

I lost interest in this game half way through. I really don't like how the enemies level up with you. I was about 2/3rds through the main quest line when the bad guys became such bullet sponges that it wasn't fun anymore. Like, multiple nukes to the face and they still keep coming.

I far prefer games where the enemies scale by location, not the player.

Probably "Oops...."

Als, your bed is for sleeping (and sexy times). No phones, no tv, no distraction.

Remember, that's the third time you have to pay! The first rug pull is when you buy the game and then find out that the entire world is utterly devoid of players because everyone only plays the latest expansion. But you can't access it because you don't have a subscription. On top of a full price game.

Besides the switcheroo, I also think it's sad for WoW. Its world is massive and beautiful and utterly dead. Everyone is only in the latest zone. The game would be better named "Zone of Warcraft". I love how e.g. Elder Scrolls Online solved it. They made all zones viable. You will see players everywhere. It's a real contrast.

You can't just drop that and then not explain....

We absolutely should. As long as they have enough stable income to support it. Rough guidelines in The Netherlands is that you can get a mortgage for about 4-5x your yearly income (subtract any other loans like credit cards, phone contracts or cars), and for no more than the house is actually valuated at (unless you're going to remodel, then you can borrow for the estimated value after it is done).

I'm not sure. Similar communities at different instances can have very different rules and vibes. There's a reason people prefer talking politics on Beehaw versus Hexbear.

I like the Kbin solution so far. Leave communities separate but cross-link and deduplicate individual threads from multiple communities in your feed. The implementation at Kbin is still a bit flawed, but the idea is sound.

The time to fix that is before and during the primaries. When you're in the booth with a choice between a Democrat and a Republican, the choice should be obvious

Same shit as in 2016, dems putting the weakest candidate.

It's not, I'm an avid Android user myself. It's just an observation. I would have expected more professional apps on Android and also a buch of "see how rich I am" apps on iOS

Yes they were. Nintendo cartridges could be 120-150 gulden at release. That's 55-70 euro, not even counting inflation. PC games were usually cheaper though.

22421382 here. I can't believe I still know that number by heart after 20+ years.

Never heard of this before, but it looks pretty good!

Does this work with ublock? I noticed some consent popups are broken with ublock annoyances filter.

My home town has a building built originally in 1220. It is still in use by a pub. That's over 800 years old!

You can't rely on fair use because fair use works differently around the world, if it exists at all.

As for copyright, you agree to terms & conditions when you sign up for your fediverse account. These should include language that grants permission to use everything you submit for federation.

I've had it in Early Access for a while. It's a great game!

Ok, and how does an attack on the energy grid bring us back to their version of what makes a good society?

I really hope that takes off because that would be awesome. Same with issue tracking.

If you don't pay for it, you can't rely on it

Kbin/Mbin doesn't handle it well and only shows the middle bit. I need to open the original to see the full image.

I use Alacritty on Gnome just because it has better window decorations than Kitty.
