…That makes sense.

What’s preventing the guy on the right from putting a bolt through his foot if something goes wrong while he’s drawing? Is the adoption of the stirrup just down to its benefits outweighing the safety risk, or were people good enough at not shooting themselves that it wasn’t a concern?

Rain World is very, very niche in its appeal, but it’s perhaps the best argument for games as art that I’ve ever come across. I’ve never had to rethink what a game even is in order to engage with something before.

“Hands On Throttle And Stick;” i.e. flight sim gear

I’d rather break things in favor of something better, and provide a way to make the old thing run, than be stuck with ancient baggage

Windows is office software first and foremost, designed to be used by people who neither know nor care what an “operating system” is. Every last one of these people is entirely incapacitated by even the most lovingly-crafted and descriptive error message. If Microsoft ever considered a policy like this, the city of Redmond would be razed to the ground inside twelve hours

Seriously. For a lot of people, SMB single-handedly answered the question of whether home consoles or arcades were the future.

I find that I slip into the same habit sometimes – specifically, when I’m typing something where perfect grammar will come off as overly formal, but I’m stressing a bit over what level of informality is appropriate. It taxes the frontal lobes, which means that my thoughts are disjointed in a way that ellipses just make sense with. I think it’s so widespread among older people because when they were first introduced to instant messaging, they weren’t sure how they would come off, and then it became a habit. But that’s just me guessing.

I agree, and I don’t care. It’s a distraction. These people didn’t move the needle an inch, and I think it’s ridiculous to worry about probably 0.5% of the electorate when there are tens of millions who actively support all this shit. Where is their accountability? Where is the accountability for the billionaires who have spent their fortunes attacking democracy? Those people are grinning ear-to-ear when they see their enemies trying to fight each other like this.

Sra. Sheinbaum my people yearn for freedom

I mean, I place more of the blame for “ending the country” on the fascists and the people who enthusiastically put them into power, but if you want to blame the handful of people who abstained then you do you I guess

I cannot into computers, but draining the capacitors before rebooting has fixed this issue for me in the past. Not sure if this is even possible on your device given you’re running Plasma Mobile

Stein got 0.6 million votes. Over a hundred million stayed at home. I sincerely doubt that each of those hundred million is a dyed-in-the-wool anti-electoralist, so why focus on the “Not left enough” people? They had no effect on the election one way or another, just like they kept telling you. Your problem is that the majority of people in this country are completely alienated from politics. If you continue to focus on the left to the exclusion of the Democrats’ very real shortcomings, if you continue to ignore DNC’s failure to offer a winning platform to everyday people, then you are damning us all to an eternity of the current moment.

I read the other answers in the thread, and I definitely would have gotten this wrong without that. This answer stands a chance at least
