  • I don’t disagree with why, I do disagree with the timing. Yes, it was a hardline issue and yes the Dems should have absolutely done whatever they could to deal with it. What I cannot and will never forgive is risking the fucking planet by placing a very likely dictator into the seat of global military superiority. Fucking vote Harris in and then we have four years of dropkicking every politician we see to deal with it.

    Now there is every chance that conflict will worsen, or end abruptly.

    Four years to work together and make positive change by not constantly bickering. Instead we have several States and governers vouching to protect our rights and your fucking neighbors against the President and his cronies.

    Gaza AND Ukraine are important. We should do what we can do. Fucking Trump though and his evil passing posse of terrible twats?? Come the fuck on. That was NOT the correct direction, my dude. Four god damned years and instead you all chose January.

    What a disappointment.

    Eh, he’s been pretty good over all. We’ve had better, though the list of worse Presidents is a bit longer. Over all, Joe did step up and get more done than expected for what felt like a forced square into a round hole situation. What he might not have done was solve YOUR issues.

    The issue wasn’t his full term. The issue became his last handful of months and the absolute atrocity that is the DNC communication strategy.









  • I’ve had it for AGES. I agree that ads have been a bit much and many websites almost unusable without Origin. YT Premium though has been fairly solid with a couple hiccups.

    Admittedly, I use YouTube as my primary source of entertainment. So the price is easily justified vs other services.


  • 100 people see dumb ad.

    40 people click on dumb ad.

    10 people play game from dumb ad.

    5 people stick it out and continue playing.

    1 of those 5 spends money.


    Games that are p2w exist in a symbiotic relationship with people who are willing to spend copious amounts of money. The people who don’t spend money and still exist within these games help fill in the environment. ALL players of these games are the problem.

    Mobile games are the most common example of this, though other games fall under similar banners. The truth is any free game with live service needs money to operate. Hell, even that fan-run DBZ MMO has costs associated with it that the community helps fund. This won’t go away, it’ll just disguise itself as something else.

    I do believe, however, that for larger games the bloated cost of development needs to fuck right off. 100mil and 5 years or more? There is a logistical issue there that needs to be addressed. One of many, I’m afraid.

    tldr: Flaw can give a hacker access to your computer only if they have already bypassed most of the computer’s security.

    This means continue not going to sketchy sites.

    Continue not downloading that obviously malicious attachment.

    Continue not being a dumbass.

    Proceed as normal.

    Because if a hacker got that deep your system is already fucked.




  • Modding a Bethesda game nowadays is actually fairly accessible. So the number one most obvious choice has to be:

    1. Skyrim - What you can create in this game using modern modding tools is absolutely crazy. TESVI please, Todd. Todd?!

    Casual playtime with characters that feel like friends? Excellent choice! Might help you from going insane at the same time.

    1. Balder’s Gate 3 - Possibly the best digital role-playing game of all time. Moddable too. A completely normal playthrough can easily burn a couple weeks. Factor in experiencing every character’s story and 100%-ing the game and aside from challenge runs this will probably burn a lot of oil. Sorry, atmosphere!

    The big ones are out of the way. Those two can probably prop up the five years on their own if you stretched them a bit and did some other activities, like exercise, you bums. People will claim driving games, Elden Ring, fighting titles, etc. I wonder though…what about…

    1. Rocksmith with all downloadable songs. Get some good music and with the right mindset learn how to play. Since you can bring gear related to the game along grab an extra guitar and some strings. Rock out for five years and come back able to rip those chords.
