Yeah, lot of people are upset that Bethesda released a Bethesda game.

"Why is this like Skyrim in space and not like completely different studios style?"

Well, probably because Bethesda made the game and not the other studio...

This is a tactical retreat. Once the retreat is done, you'll see that while Russia has given up physical land, they'll have taken digital ownership of it via the smash-hit mobile game Atlas Earth, meaning Ukraine occupies the space, but Russia earns passive income from digital ownership.

Checkmate you dirty capitalist.

Game threads? (kbin.social)
submitted 1 year ago by CMLVI@kbin.social to c/cfb@lemmy.world

With the season starting next week, is there any interest in game threads? I wouldn't expect there to be one for every game, but just make them as needed to house game discussion.

The problem is, not doing so is tantamount to treason to them. The election was stolen, this isn't the USA anymore. This is some deep state globalist conspiracy. They're so far gone that the only path forward is to threaten war and physical harm to others.

Imagine. Some deep state conspiracy and the best person they could put in power was Joe fuckin Biden...lmao

I'm on both kbin and artemis.camp while the kbin API gets sorted out. In the mean time, I'd like to just use one account, as it becomes difficult to track usage for me. I've made my Artemis accounts a mod on the magazines I mod here, but it doesn't show up like that on the Artemis side, and the Artemis account doesn't have mod controls. Is that something that is by design or just lack of implementation of that functionality yet?

The exact same thinking can be applied to the other side though. Guy says it's not an imminent threat, so we don't have to do anything right now. Worry about it next year. Which is arguably what's been happening for a long time now

As previous student who was in school when cell phones blew up in usage, I wasn't not preoccupied by my phone because I had to keep it hidden. I was preoccupied with keeping it hidden so I could keep using it. Texting with T9 without looking was a breeze. The only thing that slowed my usage was the fact I only had like 500 texts a month allotted to me.

Making the kids hide it won't make them less distracted. They just become distracted by hiding the phone. I feel like you'd almost have to just ban phones entirely, which today is pretty impractical.

I don't think it is lol. It's a rally he and his proponents called for, organized, and sought supporters for, specifically to halt the election process. Whether or not it was successful doesn't matter; I'd still get charged for robbery whether I stole money or not. It was govt supported; it was his rally, the sitting president. To me, the point was for it to be violent and messy, preventing the legal counting of votes, and giving him time to build a legal case for martial law or some other two-ply defense while he called more AGs and state officials to grift for votes to be "found" or valid ballots thrown out.

Is what the meme says supportive of him? No. Is he aware of that? Seemingly no. Is it incorrect? Also no. And that's the funniest part. It's literally calling it a riot while the most prominent images are his name on a hat, a flag, etc. Who staged this riot? I wonder...

I and another dude modded a 30k+ sub. There were 5 mods, but the other 3 are basically gone at that point, and I was brought on because I was active in the community. We both left, and within a week users are complaining about the slacking mods and wondering why spam is getting through, why discussion threads aren't posted, etc.

We didn't do anything with the shutdown, as it wasn't "our" community to shut down. We were just brought on for workload reasons. But we're both gone now, and the cracks were showing immediately.

Sadly, I'm fairly certain it's literally just me in the equivalent fed community. Haven't seen any other subs, at least.

It's crazy that they constantly say "this isn't political, this isn't about politics" and then, when given the opportunity, do everything they can to identify as conservative, God-fearing, and family values.

The restaurant has a gay pride flag out front. It's inherently political, because half the country wants to rescind rights given to the LGBT community. But when questioned on their materials, the Washers say it isn't political. It's just their values.

And that's the problem. One side knows that this is political. They know what is at stake, and how close it is to going away. The other side plugs it's ears and sings songs until they get the chance, and then they take away people's rights. But it's not political....

....because it's religious. It's a natural law dictated by a book only they care about.

Some people also eat from boredom or habit; sit in front to the TV, get a snack. Turn on the Xbox, get a snack.

It's me, I'm people. And I'm not even out of shape, just bad habits.

I'm real close to trading in my gaming chair for a recumbent bike. I've done it before, but sold it in a move. I don't even sweat; I just keep moving. Works well.

Using technology to increase productivity counts as a tech company. Having an app counts as a tech company. Shits ridiculous now...lol
