This is a strange angle because the UK does not have notably higher levels of knife ownership but has a disproportionately high level of stabbings.

I think the idea that the cause of gun violence is guns is just flawed. People need a reason to commit violence, they don't just do it for fun.

The vombats even poop cubes man.

Huh I wasn't expecting to get such a bombshell comment disproving the claim but damn you knocked it out of the park.

Honestly anti-cheat is dead going forward because much of the new cheats being developed exist hardware powered by machine learning. Competitive multiplayer is already just a shambling corpse, but somehow people haven't caught on yet.

They also offer the Steam multiplayer backend, workshop, and Steam's social system which is becoming enticing again given Discord's latest behaviour.

GOG's gimmick is no DRM, Itch.io has the cheapest self-publishing costs, and Epic has... well I'm not sure really, but the other two have their place, but it's no coincidence Steam is the biggest.

AR15 weapons have been used (and continue to be used damn near weekly) in mass shootings that has killed hundreds of children.

Calling this out because I do not believe the evidence supports this. Please provide evidence for this claim.

Canada and Sweden still have a lot of guns but considerably lower rates of violence in general, and gun violence in particular.

Did America not just lose a forever war against a bunch of dudes in the desert with AKs and homemade bombs?

I think you might like Superliminal or Hardspace Shipbreaker.

I'm less sure about the following but still wanted to suggest them:

• Dinkum (it's like Animal Crossing but in Australia)
• Astroneer (pretty chill exploration and mining game)
• Roots of Pacha (a more story-focused Harvest Moon like game)

fucking lol I didn't know there was an Unusual Whales ETF. Naming it NANC is genius.

I repair computers on the side and this exact issue happens so frequently I know some of the error codes that I dont bother trying to fix now. The sheer amount of Windows reinstalls I have to do... honestly its often faster than trying to fix the problem.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted for correctly using the term and calling out the degenerates who self-insert as little girls everywhere.

Not going to lie, I've never seen it used outside of its pejorative use. I will assume it's safe to imply that you aren't using it that way, and with that explanation I'm satisfied that it is a real term with real uses.

This does describe most voters who are not just permanently voting red or blue though...

holy shit are people nitpicking this bad? No wonder no productive discussions are taking place.

low information voter

I didn't think people unironically used this term. What does it even mean?

Good example, there is also Africa by Toto which is just nonsense and yet one of their most famous songs.

Appreciate the opinion, I'm thinking I'm just going to go ahead and pick it up

The worst part about the politics here in Canada is that the Liberals always spend years setting up the layup that the Conservatives use to dunk on Canadians. This round is going to feature a whole host of anti-competitive business, bad trade deals, media favouritism, privatization, waves of attacks on worker's rights... all this and more thanks to the moves set up by the Liberals doing things like refusing to stop the Rogers/Shaw purchase, the failure to make deals with other countries, setting up media and "CanCon" subsidies that favour big media companies, and the intentional attacks on the efficiency and effectiveness of public services.

We are so fucked.

Yeah and you're getting renovicted so they can split all the bedrooms up and double the occupancy (and rent)

What the polling likely isn't capturing is how many people will ultimately choose not to vote out of despair, and that was the real threat the whole time.
