I'd hate to miss out on my $0.86

I like the existence of downvotes. They help separate content the community has no feeling about from content the community actively dislikes.

I love that they're shown separately. This helps separate controversial opinions from ones the community doesn't care one way or the other about.

I like that you can see who downvoted. Looking at their profile can give some insight as to why they didn't like the content.

It's been a while since I read the Bible, but I remember a lot of emphasis on treating people you don't like with love and compassion. I don't remember anything in there prohibiting using someone's name because it's been changed.

Maybe this guy should read his book again.

Did they fix the thing where, after combat, my Flaming Sphere runs up to me like a puppy and accidently sets the whole party on fire before I can dismiss it?

Makes sense to me; I've seen how it happens.

  1. Recognize the US govt's imperialim

  2. Notice that US mainstream media generally downplays US imperialism

  3. Discover that RT gleefully covers and condemns US imperialism

  4. Conclude that mainstream news are corporate war apologists, while RT "tells it like it is"

  5. Walk around telling people that Ukraine is full of Nazis trying to genocide Russian-speaking Ukrainians, and Putin is just trying to stop the purge.

I was fine using battle net. I was not fine with Overwatch turning into a shitty p2w cash grab.

I remember hearing an interview with him many years ago, and he shared a story about the shenanigans he got up to as a kid... he was into phone phreaking (used to be you could control the entire phone system by playing specific tones into any phone) and reprogrammed the phone system to think his friend's home phone was a pay phone. His friend's mom would try to call someone and the phone would ask her to deposit 20c. She was furious, and sent her son over to demand he fix it immediately.

I always thought that was one of the best pranks ever. RIP to a legend.

Lemmygrad is extreme left to the point that a lot of instances have defederated with them.

Meh, your profile tells me

  1. people don't want to hear about the Mormon Church

  2. people are touchy af about fascism, people standing near fascists, and people who argue that what's happening in Florida isn't technically fascist.

  3. people who downvoted you because of 1 and 2 didn't down vote your whole comment history.

it’s possible that he was offered some kind of deal

It's been reported that Lukashenko (of Belarus) brokered a deal. I haven't seen any further details.

That's... insane. I briefly stuck my head into r/shittylifeprotips and r/interestingasfuck to see it with my own eyes and... they're burning it all down, aren't they? Shitposts, butthole shots, spam about spez, porn... no "normal" posts at all.
