The whole Trump presidency was filled with Trump abusing vague powers because when it was written, they assumed that the president wasn’t a asshole.

This new law plus Trump is a cluster fuck.

That hole has served us greatly

Btw this is a parody account

It’s more of a space for indie games without having the barrier of dealing with Steam and all that set up.

Like if I wanted to make a game about pooping in my neighbor’s yard, I can just upload the game to itch and have it ready for people to play. (Or sell it too).

With Steam, you have a significantly bigger set up. There so many more things to configure, things that a indie dev may not be ready to answer yet. Not to mention, it opens up the door to reviews and criticism from the “general gaming public”.

It’s common for most indie devs to use itch.io to test run their game ideas with a small crowd before launching it on Steam.

My bidet does not shoot at my whole ass. It only laser focuses on certain parts, which I dry with toilet paper.

Nah. Our stupid ass government only recently started hiring hackers who smoke weed. But even then, there’s too much stupid red tape.

“Both the NSA and the DOD have a ton of talented hackers, yet when it comes to actually performing disruptive cyber operations, for some reason we as a country are just frozen and scared,” Caceres says. “And that needs to change.”

He points to ransomware actors, mostly based in Russia, who extracted more than a billion dollars of extortion fees from victim companies in 2023 while crippling hospitals and government agencies. North Korea–affiliated hackers, meanwhile, stole another $1 billion in cryptocurrency last year, funneling profits into the coffers of the Kim regime. All of that hacking against the West, he argues, has been carried out with relative impunity. “We sit there while they hack us,” Caceres says.

And also

It also doesn’t help that the Republican Party have outright praised Russia, which means they’re already inside.

I type my search into the post and then usually some kind person finds me a link and calls me a asshole

Haha I never seen that one.

Ive seen the dog one.

Don’t ask for permission, ask for forgiveness.

And if you’re the president, forgive yourself.

Without outing yourself… Can you share where?

Or even a population size.

In the big cities I’m in, they’ve become deserts.

People use Amazon instead of the mall because they can still afford the Temu-level garbage Amazon sells.

I mean a few reasons.

• Pricing is better on Amazon vs mall. I can get a Gangsta Luffy T-shirt at $12 vs $20 at hot topic
• Inventory is significantly bigger. Outside of clothes, I can’t imagine not finding the exact online version and compare
• Malls are kinda ugly now. Many are indoor and just wall to wall commercialism.
• People suck. Naked dude stealing stop signs and angry Karen about the take a dump on the escalator.
• Driving vs ship to door.
• Both have temu-level garbage, but it’s cheaper on Amazon.

Oh God. This is continuing to give attention to stupid.

When MTV started making reality tv show and encouraged morons to be morons, where most of us laughed, all it did was empower them.

I dunno. Steam did it well enough. I was buying cheap games for years. I could get a kick ass GOTY game for like $5 while GameStop was still selling it used on consoles for $20.

Pretty much. It’s not something most of my circle of casual gamers know about. Even the hardcore gamers don’t watch live and usually catch a recording of something specific.

Lemmy: why aren’t people using Linux? It’s so easy

Also Lemmy: webp huh?

Lemmy folk forgetting that not every person cares enough to switch OSes.

If you ever work tech support even at a basic level, you’ll see. It’s not even boomers or genZ. I helped a grown ass human who was my age at 40yo how to install a Firefox extension.

That could have been me a few years ago. I was still using teamviewer up until 2020 to connect to my desktop from my laptop. It’s so handy.

Fortunately it was when I started learning about open-source solutions

Samsung appliances. Fridges. Washing machines.

Got them as part of the rental unit. They’re very new looking. But every month is some new mess up.

God I would replace them if I owned this place.

I love disco Elysium

If you forget about Lemmy, straight to jail. No question.
