Please, anyone who reads this, stop posting links to the mobile version of Wikipedia. It doesn’t switch automatically on PC, and I see it happen all the time. Just take the half a second to remove the “.m” from the beginning of the link, save everyone else from the pain of having to be surprised by it and taking the time to do it themselves.

I mean, she doesn't have to last too many years, she only needs to last long enough for either the fascists to be voted out or for her to arrested by said fascists as a political enemy.

I believe those never had a sales tax on groceries, at least at the state level.

The risk is that some unknown hacker discovered this vulnerability and abused it before the researchers discovered and reported it. It sounds like the company has confirmed that didn't happen, but they aren't 100% trustworthy in that regard, simply because they might have missed something.

The idea of it being numbered is that you are given your number when you vote to check against later, but nobody else is given that number so they can't tie the vote to you.

After giving such a bad answer to it that some other part of the government stepped in and said the answer was dramatically insufficient.

I mean that you straight up cannot unlock new equipment, costumes, starting points, and the like while offline and/or disconnected from the game servers. IIRC the game just doesn't track stage mastery without a connection.

I don't think it's unreasonable to want a game that I paid for to remain functional long term. In my case I have a copy of the Hitman trilogy in my Steam library, and as it stands when the servers for that game go offline it will become nearly unplayable just because the unlock system is reliant on the publisher's servers. It would be easy for them to just release a patch as they decommission those servers to allow the unlock system to function offline, but right now there is no guarantee of that happening, nor any real reason to do so besides some consumer goodwill.

Had to look up what a ute was, for any Americans it's a pickup truck. And I was going to say the exact same thing, judging people for having a spotless pickup.

The following post will meander a bit as I wrote it in a kind of stream of consciousness state.

I don't know where you heard that Super Metroid was originally a remake of the NES game, I'd never heard that and I can't find anything to back that up. As well, keep in mind that Super Metroid came out a full decade before Zero Mission did, and the original NES game that Zero Mission is a remake of was even lighter on story than Super is. If you aren't enjoying Super because of a lack of story that's fine, you won't miss much if you skip it, though I will warn you that a very common complaint about fusion is that until basically the very end the game is extremely linear. That said, I also think it's unfair to call Zero Mission an asset flip, it's much more a full on remake. Back to the Super Metroid thing, I will point out that the Wrecked Ship in Super Metroid is mostly not the Wrecked Ship you traverse in Zero Mission, there's like one screen that is shared between the two games.

Lies of P is amazing how dare you.

I will point out that this cannot change the result of the presidential election, since Trump didn't win the state in question anyway.

I was kinda annoyed at the article for not giving any details on the kinds of policies they wanted there, even something as simple as better tax credits for having kids would go a long way towards making children affordable. And yet I am sure that's not what these people are advocating for.

That stance against sports betting annoys me so much, because that means I can't just look at everything they stand for and say I want the opposite.

I mean, I for one consider the innevitability of burn in to be enough of a problem that the lack of an OLED screen is an upside honestly.

You are partly correct about DS2. It did increment even by wiping without spending the souls, but on the other hand the ranges involved meant that there was very likely always someone in range.

Looks like it's not an issue fortunately.

Aida said the new material is as strong as petroleum-based plastics but breaks down into its original components when exposed to salt. Those components can then be further processed by naturally occurring bacteria, thereby avoiding generating microplastics that can harm aquatic life and enter the food chain.

I don't think that scotus ruling does bar congress from investigating stuff actually, the supreme court doesn't have jurisdiction over impeachments. That's not to say they will, just that I'm pretty sure they can.

Holy shit, the first thing I see when I visit that website is a popup telling me to either pay them, or accept that they are going to track me and sell the data to over 400 third parties. Fuck that.

That whole thing just sounds like a much more stupid version of ERIC, which notably Louisiana withdrew from a few years ago.
