It was time in 2016. Biden barely won in 2020 and somehow Dems took that as a mandate to be even more conservative. At this point I have no idea how progressive ideas ever get implemented.

Takes 4+ years to prosecute a popular, rich traitor. Takes one day to screw over poor people. Gotta love justice.

At least Trump got convicted in NY, I guess...

Black Mesa was an insane confluence of theoretical and practical physics. I mean they're inventing fucking interdimensional travel and handheld laser weapons. Also there's a security guard that jokes to Gordon "looks like you're in the barrel today" which implies everyone on the team takes turns in the suit. That was just Gordon's day; he probably does spend most days in an office somewhere doing math

Just 3 days ago I had to use the control panel to access the settings I needed to get my parents' printer to work right. Even tried to use the regular settings menu for maybe 10 minutes before remembering how to access the settings I needed. Here's hoping my parents never run into printer issues again (lol).

FUCK YOU, MICROSOFT!

It's way cuter if he's kicking his stubby ol legs

This is a new tier of cognitive dissonance, even for Trump. I mean he literally got crowds chanting "lock her up!" Hopefully this is the icing on the cake of his felony convictions and gets a few more people to break out of the cult.

This is why we need a strong, massive milkers union

It's new in the sense they have rebuilt large enough parts of it to fully justify giving it a new name. Certainly it's very far removed from Quake. It's not like they've been sitting on their hands for almost 30 years. But it's not like they rebuilt it all from scratch, either; just the parts they needed to. Old code is still being used, and even new code still sometimes uses the old as a base. The most obvious visual example that comes to mind is the pattern they still use for flickering lights which has been around since the Quake days.

It's a bit of a Ship of Theseus situation, but I think my point still stands: Bethesda doesn't need an entirely new engine, they need devs who can (or more likely, need to give their devs time to) properly rebuild the parts that need it.

macfarlane seems surprisingly open minded considering the bottom tier humor he's spouted through family guy for so many years. the trans episodes of the orville seemed really on point to me

that's not really true. 10,000 years ago is about when we developed agriculture, stopped roaming as much, and started writing in some form that could survive the millennia, but we've been living and working together since long before we were ever recognizably human.

And here I was just reading that AMD GPUs showed much better performance in Starfield. Maybe it's because they're just not rendering stuff at all lmao

I made a post like this on my old instance's main community and it got flooded by 400+ hexbear comments telling me how stupid I am. No, the only real solution is to make a new account on an instance that's defederated. Good luck.
