  • Nah, you're supposed to take them seriously and give them various platforms to speak on and beat them with FACTS and LOGIC because that's what's needed for a marketplace of ideas and functioning democracy.

    In other unrelated news, fascism is now rising tremendously in the world.

  • The problem with fosselize is that it's currently bugged, and happens to precompile way more things than are needed, such as all workshop content that you might not have installed which takes a really long time + bloats up the shader cache in size. On anything that's not low-end, it's pretty much a waste of time since shader compilation is easily done on runtime.

    Some issues on the things I've mentioned that Valve hasn't seem to have responded yet: bloat, time

  • Just as a PSA, the feature is currently somewhat bugged and really should be avoided. For anything that's not a low-end PC, your machine can handle the compilation during runtime easily and do it much faster.

    For low-ends, it compiles so many unnecessary shaders (such as all workshop content that you might not even have), it often takes 10x longer to compile everything (which you have to recompile on every driver or game cache update) than just playing the game and watching a replay first or something.

  • They're actually given full legal immunity to anything, meaning they're allowed to commit crimes if they so choose (which we wouldn't know anything about as there is no transparency concerning these types of things). There have also been cases of violent repression against unarmed dissidents who were protesting against the monarchy (mostly when the queen had died), with disproportionate punishments handed out.

    Is this really necessary, having one family be pretty much above the law and having their lifestyle be funded via public funds? Sure, there's an argument to be made that it drives the tourism, but it's unknown how much does the royal family contribute to it, as there's definitely tourists who would still visit the monuments and buy merch without the family.

  • I wonder what would happen is this plan is successful and Trump actually gets the "technical win" - will the Democrats just give up the White House like that, will they refuse because Reps are playing dirty or will Democrats riot in the street? I'm actually curious if there's any good option to fight back that isn't "stop it before it happens".

  • I'd say mail boxes, at least in the area where I live. Around 10 years ago, our neighborhood was mandated to have our own separate boxes for mail/newspaper next to our house, but before then you'd have one group box for the whole neighborhood, with separate sections for each house. It's much more efficient for delivering that way since you just go to one box rather than door to door, though it can be a bit annoying having to walk to the box every day to get your daily newspaper.

  • It's a place created as a home for jews pretty much by antisemites, with the main idea being "we're okay with jews but only if they're not in our country".

    There's a lot of fascinating history about the creation of Israel by antisemites that you can find, but the gist is that zionism and antisemitism often go hand in hand, and it seems this has not really changed.

  • I'm European, and my relatives often buy into and bring up the US crackhead conspiracy theories they saw on Facebook and from coworkers.

    I was having an argument the other day concerning things like the weather machine conspiracy theory, chemtrails, and a bunch of shit about how the war in Ukraine is made up to steal money and how Zelenskiy was trying to abandon his country and flee because he's a coward or whatever. A lot of US and Russian brainrot makes its way here I suppose.

  • This is such a weird phenomena, but also a sad one. I'm assuming she does enjoy partying with drag queens but is so ashamed about it that she decides to compensate by rallying against them, sort of like how staunch anti-gay politicians are often caught in gay acts.

    Or maybe it was just some drunken lapse of her """moral beliefs""", can't really tell.
