We can’t fix it but we could probably fix Miller so he can’t hurt anyone ever again.

He really is a profoundly stupid man. Everyone who supports him should be ashamed of themselves.

From the top of my head

• crawl stone soup. Classic traditional rogue like. Less fiddly than net hack, but very good.
• untitled story (an older game by the main person behind Celeste. Looks like Ms paint but is utterly charming)
• everything supergiant did. Hades, bastion, pyre
• binding of Isaac is a classic.

I want to like Into the Breach but it’s too stressful. Like, when I fuck up in FTL and the crew dies it sucks, but when I fuck up in Into the Breach and all those civilians die? Oof. They were counting on me!

Maybe the design is bad, then.

I still want to see some sort of honey pot for ICE and the other goons. Like leak there’s going to be a big “illegals” celebration in a meeting hall, wait for them to show up, then lock the doors. Fill room with carbon monoxide. Let them pass out and die while looking for their victims.

Javascript could throw an error to alert you that the input is supposed to be a string, like most languages would do.

I’m not sure if it’s possible to build a healthy social network.

Smaller communities can work, if they’re well moderated. The small size also helps norms become established.

Once the network gets really big, you have eternal September problems. You have too many bad actors in absolute numbers to deal with.

So yeah, the problem is us but we suck.

Maybe federation would work, since that can keep the moderation workload smaller and distributed.

Saint Luigi deliver us from villains like Facebook

People act based on emotions, specifically feeling like they’re part of the in-group. You know the old saying “Would you jump off a bridge if your friends all were jumping, too?” Well, the answer is clearly yes. Most people are stupid like that.

I mean, we all are sometimes. It’s impossible to know and verify everything so we trust our friends. But for some people it’s reached a toxic level of “vaccines are bad” and “banning books is good”

With violence, though a lot of spaces will tell you it’s gauche to talk about violence. Stern words only.

Also, as a USian, even though my grandparents fought the Nazis the US was still garbage at home.

Spotify kind of sucks. I’ve been buying music from the musicians (mostly via Bandcamp) for years. Buying one album a month for like $8 means is cheaper than a subscription, and I now have a huge library of music.

Maybe. These aren’t normal times and I feel like being neutral in the face of a rising tyranny when you have a big platform is collaboration.

You proud now MAGAts? Does this make you proud?

They don’t care. All they care about is their in-group is strong and the out-group is punished. They’re shitty people.

Trump is just the highly visible part of a whole cancerous growth. All of the right wing, with its “outgroups to bind and in-groups to protect” worldview, needs to go.

They don’t really take much of an anti-fascist stance. They’re more “neutral”, which enables the oppressor.

They don’t explicitly support trump et al, but they don’t really use their platform for good. They could do a lot more to resist and organize.

One, I don’t think RFK believes in HIV. He doesn’t believe in germ theory. (Ars is kind of a bootlicker site, but their news is pretty good)

Two, everyone who works at ICE should be shot dead. If we have a future, people are going to look back at us with scorn. “You knew about the horrors that lead up to ww2, and you just sat back and let it happen again?” Basically yeah, we’re all scared and disorganized, and about a third of our country are rabid fascists who want this to happen.

I had an issue with installing mint. Never figured it out. Got the older LTS and it worked fine though. Maybe try a different version?

I don’t think I’ve ever bought a microtransaction or cosmetic. I’m doing my part!

*Ok, i think I paid like $5 into warframe after 200 hours, and I used some fake money from google surveys on pokemon go, so I’m not entirely without sin.

But it still spooked Wall Street, as parent company Take-Two Interactive Software Inc.’s shares plummeted as much as 10% following the news.

I think our economy might be predicated entirely on stupid.

Also, $80 is a lot when typical people’s buying power is decreasing. I think like half of americans can’t tank a $500 surprise bill, and they want people to blow nearly 20% of that on a video game? Fuck off, capitalists.
