Shooting one family member might be an accident, shooting two is almost definitely not.

Instructions unclear, I creamed my jeans.

I’m well aware of the risks inherent to not running calyx or graphene, but my threat model doesn’t justify sacrificing a lot of the functionality that I enjoy on an iPhone. If my threat model required it, I’d have an unactivated burner and a pixel device running calyx in addition to my iPhone. I’m happy settling for “better than google” based on my needs. I also have a couple PCs running Linux, with steps I can take to ensure some level of privacy if needed.

Thanks for posting some good reading though, it’s all shit I’m generally aware of.

Okay

Same. I have come to trust Apple’s commitment and attitude towards user privacy substantially more than Google. I actually know a person that works in a fairly high middle management position in a technical department at the fruit company, and he told me that even their internal handling of user data is incredibly restrictive, even when it makes their jobs harder. I don’t think Apple is perfect, but better than the alternative.

What I wouldn’t give to see Big Gretch in the Oval Office. MAGAts literally tried to hatch a plan to kidnap and murder her, so she’s aware of the threat they pose to civilization in a way few others are. That aside, she’s taught effectively for labor, helped repeal right to work in her home state, and is brimming with personality.

She also doesn’t want the job, which makes her even more perfect for it.

People live in their fantasies, where national primary elections are just a cut and paste affair that takes two days to set up.

I live in a city immediately adjacent to one of the statistically blackest cities in America. I went to school in said black city for most of my childhood. I work in that city and have lots of black coworkers that I get along with just fine. My take? They’re just people like any other. Some of them are assholes. Some of them beat their wives. Some of them are total nerds. Some of them are the kind and intelligent. Some aren’t. Just like every other skin color. Black people are just people.

And yeah, people assume a lot of shit about them as a group and make idiotic blanket statements. I have some of my own preconceived notions in my head, and when they pop up in my head I remind myself how dumb it is to carry those.

This happened a year ago, and as a union tradesman, while I’d take Biden, or a rock with a face painted on it over trump, I’d rather not have an ancient dumbfounded old man representing my interests.

He’s better than trump for our unions, but come on dude he’s barely fucking alive at this point.

Correction, Biden legit said “goodest job”, and if my soul was still functional I would have fell out of my chair when I heard it.

OP has been spamming it across multiple communities with links to its steam page

I said “everything but” meaning roasting your meat on a stick is the only thing I saw here that looks original.

I went to steam page and watched the video. I’m sorry if you don’t like hearing the criticism, but the gameplay, animal behavior, the visuals, everything but roasting your meat on a stick looks like a blatant copy. Come on man, you know what you did here.

It just seems kinda lame, weak and tasteless to me. TLD is a game that is still releasing content, it’s not like it’s an homage to game from the past, it’s a blatant knockoff, like tracing artwork and saying “I made this”.

I spend a lot of money on steam, almost entirely on indie projects, I’m typically happy to support anyone making something new and interesting. If people support this project and buy it, good for them, but I don’t fuck with it.

Even its naming conventions, “the short snow” is basically a clone of “The Long Dark”

I don’t know if the devs at Hinterland should be flattered or appalled. I wonder how their lawyers will feel about it.

Yeah, but see, if he posts to gaming communities everyone is going to call him out for making a blatant clone of The Long Dark.

You spent your savings to remake The Long Dark, neat.

That’s one part of Canadian law I could be okay with. Keep carry permits (with additional training and testing). Keep American castle doctrine and self defense laws that provide protection for reasonable use of force. Add a fast track to purchase for victims of domestic abuse or stalking.

I’m unwavering in my belief that people should have the right to lethally defend from mortal threats and sexual assault. Canadian law affords very little legal protection for such cases. That’s at least one part we get right.

They’re such neat birds. I see them and their nests on my job site and I love watching them skitter around and yell at anything that moves.

Lefty gun owner here, and we haven’t done “nothing” but certainly not enough. Gun control advocates have always done things that feel good and do nothing to prevent violence. Magazine capacity bans (one columbine shooter had 14 ten round ban compliant mags) and bans on cosmetic features like heat shrouds and pistol grips do absolutely nothing to keep anyone safer. People will just train to be effective with pesky ban compliant features, or, you know, ignore the law.

Michigan did something great in response to a school shooting. If a child or otherwise restricted person gains access to your firearms and harms someone, you get slapped with a major felony, a law that’s already been put to use a few times. So it basically makes a safe mandatory by placing the fear of a lengthy sentence on leaving your guns out for kids to grab. It’s something.

Personally, I wouldn’t mind seeing an actual proficiency test, one that weeds out the lowest common denominator. I have sought training and education consistently over years to participate in competitive shooting events, and I’ve literally shot with cops that I wouldn’t let clean their gun in my kitchen. The “test” for a concealed carry license is a joke, id like to see a true test of safety knowledge to even own a firearm.
