Good. Fuck Macron and his bullshit attempt to subvert the will of the people… again.

Good. They took their time to create a masterpiece this time, plus a pretty great expansion in short order. I would be upset if they said they were rushing to put out something just to cash in.

Read the text from the post, not the article. OP said it is releasing in 2044 instead of 2024.

Wouldn’t the high viz jacket make it easier for hunters to find and shoot?

It took less than 2 years for them to unseal the records and start doing something about it.

Meanwhile in the US, it has been 4 years and Trump still hasn’t gone to trial about all the shit he did. He was caught on tape in Georgia, and still nothing. He sent emails to people in different states, and still nothing.

Oh god, the PvP ranking bullshit grind. Yeah, you almost had to account share to get the top ranks. Back in Vanilla, two of my IRL buddies did the HWL grind. It was different from the Arena rankings grind, but still brutal. The last 3 weeks were nearly 24/7 to move up, and that’s only because we had an organized server that had a list of who was next in line to get HWL and enforced weekly caps to make sure someone didn’t grind 24/7 and miss a rank.

I stopped at Centurion, because fuck all that. I also wasn’t good at PvP.

Hang on. WoW came out in 2004. So in 6 years you played 3 years in-game? 12 hours a day, every single day for 6 solid years? Were you on disability? Because after sleeping, that doesn’t leave much time for work or school.

I used to get so mad at movies that had unrealistic portrayals of how people would act in a crisis situation.

After COVID, I no longer question the unbelievable stupidity of humans, nor the amount of hatred humans have.

It’s hard to shrug something off if you aren’t at all trying to shrug something off.

A) She should have never called it a term that has that much meaning behind it.

B) She should have maybe waited to hear some facts before speaking about it.

So something did precipitate this attack, and the media never reported on that. It only reported on what happened after.

Yes, some people completely uninvolved with the initial provocation got attacked, but the point is the attack wasn’t just some anti-Semitic pogrom. Also, the bigger point is the media reported on one thing with a very specific slant and didn’t report the other thing at all.

As soon as I read the initial headlines all over every media outlet I went to see if anything precipitated the attacks, because I had a feeling this wasn’t unprovoked.

I don’t support violence against anyone, but I sure wouldn’t paint this as an anti-Semitic attack. This was a group of hooligans who instigated the whole situation and got what they asked for.

No.

As much as I hate using cash, I understand that the credit card companies charge ridiculous fees to businesses and also that people with very low income don’t always have access to digital forms of payment. Maybe Sweden does better with equipping their entire society with digital tools, but in the US I don’t think we are ready for a fully digital payment society.

What’s the downside? If they move away, you haven’t lost anything because they weren’t paying taxes anyway. If they stay, you have just gained tax revenue. And it isn’t like you are going to lose a lot of sales tax money or real estate tax money, since they are not going to stop visiting Paris and buying luxury goods and are not going to sell their properties (that’s why they are so wealthy in the first place).

Also, if they move away then you have fewer billionaires fucking up politics.

My memory is hazy, but I’m pretty sure Mozilla was a package and most people just didn’t install the rest of the package. Everyone called the browser Mozilla because they didn’t use the other parts. I could definitely be wrong, though.

The US needs this kind of law. With multiple people switching from Dem to Rep after elections are done, it really undermines the will of the people. Most of them didn’t vote for that specific person because they love that specific person. They voted for someone who represents their ideal government. So when that person does a 180, it should open them up to being kicked out by the party or put up for a special election.

Trillian was definitely part of that war. I remember the daily patches to get things working again.

Trillian was not Mac only. I’ve never owned a Mac and used Trillian almost exclusively from 2002 until roughly 2009?? I can’t remember when the transition from IM to texting happened for me, but it was around then. When I was running Linux at home I would use Gaim, which was developed by a friend of the main Trillian guy.

I think the topics are relevant to people leaving their very liberal, closed world of university and going out into a world that may not embrace them like they are used to. He very vocally reminded every woman and LGBTQ+ person in the audience that they are about to go into a world where assholes like him are going to be sitting next to them in the office trying to make their lives hell.
