All I’m saying is that the only things stopping shit from getting real have always been things like reliable shelter and food. We’ve been in a “housing crisis” for about 10 years now and now they are taking away peoples food and health care. If you’re not willing to give people the things that they need to survive it’s only a matter of time before they decide to take it themselves. If they weren’t trying so hard to change history they’d pick up some history books and learn a thing or two. I’m not saying anything is going to happen, I’m just saying history tends to repeat itself.

And look, I’ve played early access games before and I’m used to playing games that do a server wipe every once in a while or saves being incompatible with the new version, but I’m talking every update and multiple times a year. It makes it so the only sense of progress you feel is when you buy a ship with real money so you can still have it on the next update. It’s a very exhausting game.

(Seeing the birthday spike.)

Nice.

As someone that played star citizen and enjoyed the gameplay very much, this game has been basically ruined by greed for years now. They basically discourage playing the actual game with these practices. Sure, you can work your ass off and make a butt load of money to buy a bunch of cool guns, armor, and ships, but as soon as they do a server wipe, which they do fairly regularly, most if not all of it will get wiped clean. But if you give them real money you get to keep everything after a server wipe.

I even had a friend where his ship, bought with in game currency, glitched and he was able to keep it several updates later with no issue while mine disappeared. We both bought them with in game currencies at about the same time. Mine disappeared as soon as the update came out and he had it for almost two years! To me that sounds like it’s intentional and they could totally get away with letting you keep your stuff but they choose not to.

Trump is the embodiment of every negative stereotype that people associate with shitty Americans all bundled up into one disgusting person. And instead of being like “no he’s not like all of us I swear most of us are normal” we decided to elect him twice. actions speak louder than words and I think we’ve proved that.

I’m a pretty experienced chef and worked in kitchens for almost 10 years. I liked to pride myself in making steaks on temp by just touch or even looking at it, depending on the cut of course. But when it comes to things like chicken, absolutely. If I wing it (get it?) I end up overcooking it to “be safe.” But with a thermometer you can get it just right without ruining the chicken. I used to hate chicken when I was a kid because my parents always over cooked it to hell and back. Nowadays, now that I know how to cook chicken and use a thermometer, chicken is easily my favorite meat.

Borderlands 3 was barely worth $60 and I still waited for it to go on sale.

Exactly. Those people want to become richer and the regime wants people they can have leverage over so they don’t step out of line. The only problem with this strategy is that it’s super fragile for both sides which is usually why it fails. Just google the oligarchs that got people like Hitler into power. They always think they are safe because they are loyal but it never lasts. In the end they are all power hungry and want to be the one on top. We can already see the infighting starting with people like Musk.

Yeah, that’s literally been Russia’s deal for years towards the US. Like when they had Tucker Carlson tour around Moscow.

Hell yeah. I honestly haven’t run into too many issues with Oblivion on my desktop but I’m down for it to run better.

If they’d have done this before they decided to turn the US into an international laughing stock more than they already were I’m sure this would have worked. Not sure it’d work at this point.

Not gonna lie, that sounds like something you’d do if someone knew too much and you didn’t want them leaving the country.

I’m more shocked that it was only about a month ago. Feels like it happened months ago.

If you decide to cancel your subscription and delete your account, they give a warning when deleting that says you need to cancel your subscription SEPARATELY. Just a heads up for anyone thinking of leaving like I did.

Yes, keep making enemies of the billionaires that got this administration into office and spent millions of dollars to do so. I’d very much love that for you.

409-2?! And the only nay votes were republicans?! What the actual fuck?!

And with the amount of incompetence we’ve seen I’m sure it’ll be sometime within the next month that 4chan has access to our nuclear weapons. Good job America, you gave a bunch of internet edgelords like Musk nuclear weapons.

It’s a remaster of a game from 2006 with a fresh coat of paint and some QOL changes and that’s basically all it ever could be. 70% of the game did not age well and they honestly did the best they could. If they did a complete remake and “modernized” the game all the old-school fans would be pissed. If they kept it as true to the original as possible besides a facelift they’d make it harder for new players to want to pick it up. I feel like a good 7/10 was the best they could shoot for under most circumstances.

And if you ask anyone where Bethesda fell off, depending on which game was their first, they will all give you a different answer. For me Morrowind and Oblivion are the best in the series and that’s with over 500 hours in Skyrim. They’ve been dumbing their games down with each new iteration since the 90s as they try to “modernize” the newest game each time and reach new audiences. Like, good luck playing Morrowind or Daggerfall these days without losing your patience in a matter of hours. And Morrowind especially is barely playable without mods these days.

I still hated Starfield, though. Gave it the old college try and left so underwhelmed I couldn’t tell you a damn thing about the story.

I’m so tired of useless AI “features” plaguing every facet of the internet. I get that there are uses for this kinda stuff, but literally everything is not the answer. Especially since 70% of the AI features they have added to YouTube are either useless or inadequate for what they say they do. My favorite is the AI summary of the comment section saying some stupid shit like “the comments talk about the jokes in the video.” Like… How is that helpful?

At this rate it almost seems like they are trying to stop people from even using YouTube with how much information and summaries they are trying to give you without ever interacting with the video itself.

I highly doubt that’s the reason, but if it is we need to be louder and more disruptive. I think we are far past the point of just hanging out for a 2 hour protest twice a month. I think it’s time for strikes. I think it’s waaay past time for strikes.
