If this was about somebody misgendering a trans person because they committed a crime, I’d agree with you. But Mitch is hated because of the immeasurable harm he’s done to countless Americans (and non-Americans), and I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect that people give him grace.

Why bother making something new when perfection already exists?

Costco has lines regardless of whether it’s self serve though

Returnal, a rogue like 3rd person shooter (sort of bullet hell) with a scifi alien setting and a mindfuck story. It’s one of my favorite games I’ve played in years, both for the story and gameplay. I can’t recommend it enough.

If you’re familiar with the story of the first Last of Us game, Last of Us 2 is great and is centered around Ellie.

I struggle to see how any music made by people for the enjoyment of people isn’t art

It’s still just a tool for engineers though. Half of the job is determining what the design requirements are, another quarter is figuring out what general scheme (i.e. water vs air cooling) works best to meet those requirements. Things like this are great, but all they really do is effectively connect point A to point B in order to free up some man-hours for more high-level work.

There’s a guy at this maker-space I work out of who’s been using ChatGPT to do engineering work for him. There was some issue with residue being left in the parking lot on the pavement and came forward saying it had to do with “ChatGPT giving him a bad math number,” whatever the hell that means. This is also not the first time he’s said something like this, and its always hilarious.

I have really fond memories of waking up early at the beginning of summer vacation to watch E3 with a bowl of lucky charms. Even if it does get replaced I’m always going to miss it for nostalgic reasons.

And can that same person explain why social features are completely missing from the mobile app?

Can confirm, I’m half way through Wind Waker playing on my laptop with 0 issues.

Everything cracks under pressure, I’m not exactly sure what the above commenter is getting at. If the sub was steel the walls would be thinner. With titanium the walls are thicker. Without knowing the dimensions of the material we can’t know whether it was built to high enough standards.

So far the only people I know joining Kick are xQc, Train and Adin Ross… if that’s the kind of content they’re trying to curate early on I can say with 100% certainty that its not for me.

Also doesn’t help that they’re funded by a gambling company

Disco Elysium!

Yep, Twitter was the only way I could reliably get info about power outages in my neighborhood. Now I’ll just have to wait patiently for it to come back on… like a caveman

love isolation

Maybe you would, but for most people it’s been proven to cause lasting damage

That’s not really because of the Apple vs Android ecosystem wars though. My understanding is that most of Europe uses third party apps because, at least until recently, pricing for phone and text plans was exorbitant, when considering that many Europeans are “roaming” and communicating with people in adjacent countries.

Having people treated differently to achieve equal outcomes is what we strive for. When it’s shown that minorities are discriminated against in hiring, people suggest affirmative action to level the playing field. When somebody is asked to testify again dangerous people, they’re put in witness protection to be afforded the same security as any average citizen.

When somebody carries a unique cultural status, such that they would surely be killed if left to their own devices, that person is given protection to ensure that they live, and aren’t handed a death sentence without trial. That’s not what Russia does. Really, one could argue that “not letting a political figure get assassinated” is the exact opposite of what Russia does.

Solitary confinement is inhumane and should be illegal.

Also we’re kidding ourselves if we don’t think he’ll get put in the most safe, cushy prison imaginable (assuming he’s charged)

Regardless of the fuel, single-passenger vehicles are an incredibly inefficient mode of transportation. There’s no reason for many cities and city centers to be as car-centric as they are, and any energy savings that could be achieved with EVs in these cities would only be multiplied if wide roads were replaced with walkable paths and effective public transport.

My biggest problem (as an engineer) is that the hype around EVs ignores the possibility that there are better solutions. It’s easy to get invested in a cool idea but you can’t fixate on it and forget about the problem that you set out to solve in the first place.

Eh, just because lots of women are playing games doesn’t mean they’re catered to women.

Don’t get me wrong, the industry’s come a long way from every female character having 28DD’s and videogame trailers being all about stoic badasses and explosions. I think the rise of indie games has been great for that. But there’s an undeniable male-coded streak that still exists in marketing and in the industry, especially at the AAA level, and there’s progress we can still make there.
