Fuck that, get violent. Revolutions are never bloodless.

Firearms education is only necessary when there are guns all over the place. The people you're complaining about don't want guns around to begin with. Not to mention the inherent propaganda that is 100% built into any children's content produced by Republicans and the NRA. If the goal of Democrats is to increase gun control and reduce the amount of guns among the general populace, it doesn't really make sense for them to want NRA propaganda in schools. That said, I do agree that while there are all these guns around, parents should generally do a better job to make sure their children get this information, whether their family owns a gun or not.

I mean, the people making them, for one.

This is a bad take in general, if your computer can't handle running steam it probably can't handle many games to begin with. It's the least intrusive option presented so far in terms of DRM, and steam has done more for the Linux gaming market with Proton than any other company afaik. You have to launch steam to avoid games wanting to do things like denuvo or kernel level anti-cheat which is WAY worse, and those of us on Linux need steam running while we game for additional reasons. This complaint about not wanting to look at a storefront is just petty, especially when I'm pretty sure there are settings to open it directly to your library.

The one that sticks with me is called "the cold equations", and it's about a pilot flying a ship through space and discovering he has a young girl stowing away on board. Since he only has enough fuel to get to his destination if the ship weighs a very specific amount, he has to decide whether or not to jettison the girl out the airlock. I remember liking it, but I've never forgotten how emotional it was to read.

Never put your phone in your back pocket. I briefly worked at a Verizon store and like 20-30% of broken phones I saw came from people who sat on it in their back pocket.

You mean 2002 and 2003, right?

Until you can use things like banking apps on them they will never be mainstream sadly.

Women have been complaining in popular media for decades about random dudes approaching them and asking them out. How is it a surprise that the trend is dying out? It's clearly something that most women don't enjoy to begin with.

Why would that be unusual at all?

Nah this post can go fuck it's self. Xenophobic as shit. Same rhetoric people use about immigrants.

It's equally possible you're just assuming everyone who doesn't share your opinion is a paid troll. I got called a Russian troll multiple times for saying Biden had no business being in this election and that we could do better. Imo it's far more likely you're talking to a child than a "paid troll" if their opinions don't make sense and they dig their heels in. Assuming everything is some grand conspiracy instead of accepting that some people have different beliefs and opinions, or might just be that stupid, simply isn't healthy. Trolls and such exist, sure, but I don't think they are anywhere near as common as you're implying.

Pretty sure ML stands for Marxist Leninist, doesn't it?

As this comment shows it's very easy to twist the meaning of something like this to suit your needs when viewing it through the lens of metaphor as the author intended. However, I'm fairly certain historians have figured out fairly definitively that the beast in revelations was always meant to depict Emperor Nero. I'm too lazy to look it up right now though so I could be wrong.

During the testimony, Warren's attorney, Jean-Jacques Cabou asked those within DeSantis' administration what "woke" meant to them.

The governor's general counsel, Ryan Newman, said, in general, it means "the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them."

They know what Woke means, and it's just as fucking backwards and asinine as you'd expect. Imagine trying to criminalize people fighting for equality. It's the only word I'm aware of that is simultaneously classist, racist, misogynistic, and anti-lgbtq thanks to how the right have chosen to use it.

I mean, you said that camera thing like it was some kind of mic drop lol. I'm also not sure what you mean by "my logic", since I don't personally have much of an opinion on the law it's self, I was just curious why someone would be so vehemently against it. I'm not the original commenter that started this chain.

If it's a matter of wasted resources, I guess I see your point, but it's a bit of a reach. I don't know if it's as big of a waste as you're claiming when we have corporations trying to implant customers with brain chips like neuralink, I mean who knows where that technology could go if it ever gets off the ground. Personally I think the Justice system attempting to have a bit of foresight is a good thing.

Is there a downside to having a law like this on the books?

Also, isn't banning cameras like a mind-blowingly bad idea? That would mean people couldn't do things like record police committing crimes, hell you wouldn't even be able to install a dash cam on your car.

I always thought the reason they did this was because they tie a bunch of random mechanics to frame rate in soulsborne games, and increasing it beyond set limits causes unintended behavior

this was a thing before ICP even existed.
