I can barely run steam and the games I bought on steam at the same time, which is required for most games. Steam disabled certain features and bloated the software – their launcher takes more resources than actual games. AAA games. (From a decade ago, but still.)

Other launchers might be garbage but the bar seems to be pretty low. Only thing anyone can say is “get a better computer” because in their mind that is a great rebuttal to “why is a game tied to a launcher which takes up 4x as many resources as my entire OS?”

Musk pulled his dick out in front of that woman (aka his employee) and tried to pay her for sex. Offered her a horse. Ended up with his company paying her $250,000.

Musk had that bizarre moment where he called someone a pedophile for turning down a PR stunt. He has ties to Epstein. He cozies up to Trump.

He’s a sex offender / sexual predator. He wasn’t convicted – he’s the richest man in the country paying a quarter of a million to keep people quiet.

It’s going to come out that he’s been raping kids and it’s going to be so obvious so many signs everyone knew blah blah blah.

My favorite part of Transformers was when my government had the script changed to include Marines being heroic in a movie about giant alien robots. We really needed good PR after that whole Afghanistan and Iraq thing.

It’s like an old 100 yo trend of writing headlines except it has gotten much more “slam”-filled. Crash blossoms / headlinese has evolved over time.

They still had them in California as of a month ago. I always saw their setups around my city. You could get a phone and a tablet, but the tablet might have been tied to certain provider or your benefits (EBT/snap/etc)

A hidden device implanted on our cortex at birth should detonate when we suggest something like “We should let corporations solve global warming.”

The list is compiled by the MPA, a group that represents studios, etc. They work with our government, and to which degree I have no concrete idea, (edit: a trade association is supposed to work with governments on behalf of it’s members) but they merely submitted this list to our government. That’s according to the article and the torrent freak source.

I think the article wasn’t being clear and other comments seem to agree.

I think “end of history” is a bigger deal than hysteria or overreactions. People should be more concerned with things like climate change, fascism, capitalism, or systemic inequality. A lot of people have this thing in the back of their mind where they “know” nothing will ever change, and it poisons the way they think of the world over time.

This is a serious question. How do they know it’s not living in Austria that may lead to you cutting your penis off? Is the percentage of men living in Austria who mutilate themselves higher than the percentage of men who take psilocybin who do the same? We may be on to something.

They’re still figuring out the internet

Terminating service over allegations of piracy. Kicking someone off the internet because an automated copyright system accused them of piracy. That’s crazy.

Next time an artist makes a big deal about being ripped off I’m going to contrast “working hard and then getting ripped off” with “underregulated industry manipulating society for profit” and probably just pirate.

How to “block” ads: Refresh the video multiple times. They will show a few different ads and then give up. It even works on console YT apps which have more ads.

I guess it affects impressions? I figured they would have fixed that, but this still works so whatever.

You use an ITIN and pay taxes. It’s the law that you need to pay taxes whether you’re here legally or not, which means we specifically create pathways for people who are here illegally to pay their fair share. Illegal immigrants pay taxes as one of the ways of building social credit for when they can naturalize.
