This is what people don’t get.

This is just double-win: He gets to once again shit on anybody even marginally less fascist that him (so, well, everybody) for the right-wing mass media, while simultaneously withdrawing from the public eye to have less people look at how he’s draining money from the US gov.

Dude could be destitute in a barrel and IMO needs to lose far far more. He deserves every little shit thing that happens to him, and is one of the few people on the planet where if they have a serious roadside accident I might just suddenly remember I panic from seeing blood and hence could not stop to help them and and in my panic did not have enough clear thought to call an ambulance. And I’d do that for murderers. But not for Musk. He’s the scum that cannot die soon enough, and cannot die painfully enough.

Yeah. We can assume he gave himself an insane amount of extra cash through his access (like the surprising-wink-wink gov contracts his companies have now), but we don’t know truly know how much and he’d be stupid to let anybody know.

He has to get the fuck out now though because obviously him gaining a few more billions cost the american state + public hundreds of billions in long-term damage, if not trillions. It also made swaths of the american government dysfunctional, things like veteran aid etc.

I mean if never want one, but in an engineering level this site looks fascinating.

Go into politics.

Can confirm, ran the numbers and in just over 3 years Atlanta turned every american gay. That’s why for such a long time now, every american is gay, always. It’s those body scanner!

The voters, genuinely. Because they misunderstood what the vote meant. It wasn’t about electing a democrating candidate, it was about keeping Trump out of office*. Note that this is not limited to non-voters, but includes every american.

*: This is not what a vote for the president is meant to be about. But hey, desperate times, desperate measures, that kinda stuff.

Nevermind that as an openly queer person, she’s probably on some ICE list already.

Which AFAIK isn’t a standard, so… 🤷

People who genuinely think like this (as in, that users going to Bluesky is somehow bad, surprising or something only stupid people do) are the very reason systems such as Mastodon cannot work. And sadly they naturally pervade such systems, at a development, administration and user level.

Yeah I only see one person trying to launder their grudges publicly here, and it’s not David Gerard…

This is their “light IDE” basically, the equivalent of VS Code. Their Java IDE is the full thing, well, Eclipse. Although I personally prefer IntelliJ IDEA.

Not the person you replied to, but yes, even then.

Not because they might not “deserve it”, on some morale level. Whatever. But because me personally I don’t want to make martyrs out of people that are assholes.

This is just as much #nottheonion, isn’t it? 😂 But it’s very fitting, given the noticably lower overall intellect and reasoning capabilities of antivaxxers.

That’s 7 years old.

And is in fact how you should do this. Open and opt-in. The whole point we’re angry here is that other companies do it without asking.

It’s weird that they’d want to copy from Apple in particular considering how bad that maps app is. Odd choice, even with the usual “can’t think larger thatn US” attitude Google management suffers from.

Sure, but keep in mind the comparison to any non-federated site has to be that you had no other instances to jump to in the first place.

I mean just looking at Elden Ring here:

• The engine was apparently optimized for stutters on PC, not the actual game.
• Keybinds were incomplete, and you couldn’t even rebind the ones that were doable properly because of the fixed nature of some keys. (An incredibly common problem for so many games)
• Lots of auto-combo keys (where one key does a lot of things instead of using all the buttons available), too.
• Mouse acceleration completely broken, and they never fixed that. Mods can somewhat rectify it, granted.
• The re-auth to the online server makes sense from the way a console handles launching/closing games, but not for a PC. Makes going back out for settings (since at launch a lot could not be changed mid-game) really fun. 😑
• The UI makes no use of the keyboard or mouse, and in fact seems to actively hate them.

All of these would be trivial except maybe the stuttering if they had developers that regularly do PC games. They’re just part of basic development or basic UX evaluation.

*sobs hopelessly*

Let’s try recreating Saints Row 4 but with Johnny Gat as the protagonist … and also he’s now in hell.

And IMO even that would have been okay (plus playing as Kinzie was far better) if it had been actual DLC. It was alright as a “I played SR4, and wish I had ~12-15 more hours to go in it”. It was essentially the same game, some new areas, swapped main char but it matters little, done. It was clearly once much smaller and meant as DLC, tbh.
