Not allowing to ship out paid orders is not forgivable no matter the situation imo.
Switching to Firefox worked great.
Oh, Russia is mad that another country is making illegal claim to territory they see as their own?
Slava Ukraini. Crimea isn't the only thing Russia's going to lose now that the entire world knows their military is a husk.
I have a little bit of sympathy for people who are from another era
I don't. Trans people are a new thing for me too, they didn't "exist" in my formative years. I grew up in Oklahoma surrounded by conservative Bible-belt redneck N-word-spouting family, at a public school where "gay" and "hermaphrodite" were used as gym insults. I'm a straight-passing white cis male with pretty blue eyes, the least oppressed motherfucker out here and a perfect candidate for growing up to be a shitty supremacist.
Yet I'm the farthest thing from one, because all it actually takes is asking myself "Why should I have a problem with this? Does it affect anyone other than the person being made happier?" When the answer comes up as "no," it's A-OK in my book. And don't get me started on the pricks who think "but I'm Christian!!!" is an excuse for anything, God is supposed to judge us, not my asshole neighbor Karen who grew up on leaded gas and cigarettes.
In the U.S. circa 2016, so many kids were just finding pirate streaming sites for movies and such during class on school computers. I imagine it's similar elsewhere for students who've finished their work and are bored, but boy, now they have the knowledge of how to get countless other types of media for free.
Piracy is a service problem. The goal shouldn't be to indoctrinate our youth to avoid it, it should be to stop releasing subpar, overpriced products.
This is the U.S., we quite literally can't uphold values to save our lives. Hollywood studios aren't going to pause shit.
Snitches get stitches. Let's not revert to the Nazi Germany "sell out your neighbor" bullshit.
It's also the name of the best feature of the 3DS. What the fuck, Nintendo? Why don't we have it on the Switch?
Probably because
- The n-word is dropped in a less interesting section of the rant that could feasibly be skipped
- It's not a hard R
- We don't know the race of the author
- The t-slur comes way earlier and is seen on multiple occasions, perhaps prompting a comment prior to finishing reading.
I've explicitly been using my beehaw.org account pretty much exclusively because of the constant DDOS attacks on lemmy.world.
Kinda funny how their plan to seemingly kill Lemmy is just helping it stay decentralized by pushing people to other instances.
Considering the whole point of a corporation is limited liability, I can't imagine the whole "individual execs will get in trouble" thing is going down well for them. I'm sure nobody wants their encrypted chats handed over to the government, either, especially as governments have been backtracking rights for pretty much everyone.
Fuck the Online Safety Act, it's gross overreach.

It was a "ground-up" rebuild on Source 2, so while it carries forward all the CSGO content and aims to "play the same" in terms of movement and gunplay (with the exception of improvements like subtick actions), I'd say it's way more of an actual "2." New engine with all kinds of fancy lighting and other improvements, new assets (including weapon and character models, some of which were still originally in the 2013 CSGO launch), remakes and retouches of maps, vastly improved map-making tools, some nifty accessibility features (your walking sounds appearing on the radar) and quality of life features (selling back misbought items, or the picture-in-picture grenade throw practice camera), and some huge balance changes (games are now shorter, players now need to more strategically choose their weapons, smoke grenades are voxel-based and can be cleared out with gunfire and grenades, skyboxes are now open for grenade tosses, etc.)
It looks the same but with some lighting changes on the surface, but it's actually huge.
