Musk: violates a federal law by giving away a cool million every day until election day

Feds: "let's fine that guy $10,000, that seems like a pretty serious amount for a fine"

I've heard figures as high as 390 million. I'm pretty sure there are more guns than people in the US.

Steam Controller is a flawed masterpiece that I wish we had gotten another iteration of.

Also, speaking of the 8bitdo Pro 2 line, the wired Xbox version of the Pro 2 is pretty great. It's similar to the regular Pro 2, but it has analog triggers, uses Xinput, and has Xbox coloring and branding. It's like they took the best parts of Xbox, SNES, and Playstation controllers and mushed them all together.

Thanks, I hadn't heard about this until now and was able to grab a copy.

“The Democrats are using their power to push an alarmist and false narrative that there is a problem accessing contraception,” said Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy, the top Republican on the Senate Health, Labor, Education and Pensions Committee.

If he really meant this, there'd be no problem passing a bill to protect contraception access. If there's already no problem getting it, and you're not intending to prevent people from getting it, a bill protecting access is at worst window dressing and harms no one.

I can only conclude they are intending to find further ways to prevent people from getting contraception, and don't want this bill to get in their way.

A lot of his base admires precisely those qualities you mentioned. They dig the idea of someone who appeals to their shared prejudices and wields power capriciously and cruelly. Either because they think he will wield that power on their behalf, or because they wish they could wield that kind of power themselves and are enjoying it vicariously by watching him do it.

Hey, as someone who only ever drinks decaf, I'm all for something that tastes like coffee but has zero caffeine!

Gas I do not use so I do not care.

I don't own a car and don't use gas either. But my food, clothes, toiletries, mail, and lots of other things I need all probably required gas in order to get to me. If you live in a city, especially a US city, chances are high that you rely on gasoline a great deal just to get food, even if it's only indirectly.

I feel like, if the USSR is to blame for modern Russia, then Tsarist Russia shares some of the blame as well

There are way more evangelicals supporting Israel than there are Israeli-Americans, so I'd say mainly evangelicals. And that difference only gets bigger if you start including other conservative Christian groups.

I was surprised to see "formerly DuPont" on the gofundme. Turns out International Flavors & Fragrances merged with DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences back in 2021. Go figure.

Came here to mention Loria as well. I like to call it "Warcraft 2.5"

Beehaw definitely reminds me of the couple of vBulletin forums I used to post on back in the day. Smaller scale, mild pace, and I start to recognize people after sticking around a while. Much more of a community feel. I really missed that.

I can't believe they would expel the only Navy SEAL to ever walk on the moon and win the World Cup twice! This is an outrage!

Every time I see this type of discussion, my false flag senses start tingling. I have no idea if I'm right about that, but seeing a Dem attack anyone to the left of them that rabidly, and refuse to respond to reasonable questions or statements, always gives me an uncanny impression that I'm seeing a conservative in disguise.

Personally I hadn't heard the red-to-black story debunked at all until reading this thread, so I appreciate the thorough clarification.

You're not kidding!

Musical chairs, Nazi shit edition

I'm also still incredibly salty about this. The Quake 1 and 2 remasters also are a huge contrast to how the Unreal franchise has been handled.

I recently got my gog copy of UT2004 running on my Steam Deck. It was a huge pain in the ass that I could have circumvented by buying a Steam copy... but of course that's no longer an option. I guess Epic doesn't want easy money from their old games.
