The “same game at the same time” part is a licensing issue. It won’t ever be “solved” because it would get Steam into legal trouble to do so, just like the Internet Archive recently FAFO’ed. In order for two people to play the same game at the same time, you need to own two licenses for said game.

But it does solve the issue of multiple people using the same library at the same time. Now your family members don’t get booted off of Skyrim just because you launched Persona. It basically combines your libraries, so any of you can choose any of the listed games to play at any time. Just like having a physical shelf full of CD cases.

The DLC launches next month, so it has seen a surge of renewed interest. And once the DLC lands, it’ll likely get a surge of new players from being on the store page again.

It's terrifying to me how completely the alleged Church has accepted him.

FWIW, that’s one of the main checkboxes for the Antichrist. If he had no followers and got rejected, the Antichrist wouldn’t be a threat.

That’s exactly what it was. The title only gave points for non-Olympic events. And since the vast majority of events with the best breakers were focused on qualifying for the Olympics, all of those points from the best breakers got excluded. Basically, she’s the only breaker in her country who won a non-Olympic event (because all the people better than her were busy trying to qualify for the Olympics,) so it went to her by default.

She literally scored all 0’s at the Olympics. I’d say she fell flat on her face, but even that would’ve probably earned more points than her performance. It was a sort of Billy Madison moment.

The controversy was all because she basically voted herself into the competition; No governing body existed for Australia (where she was from) so she created the organization to decide who got to go to the Olympics. They held tryouts, and she (since she made the organization and was in charge of the tryouts) made a point of excluding anyone who was better than her.

She basically only made it to the Olympics because of blatant nepotism, and then made a fool of herself. Her stated reason was that she saw who she was up against, realized she didn’t have a chance in a straight skill-based competition, and decided to do something more “experimental” instead. Basically, she said she was hoping to cinch it with creativity instead of skill. In reality it was just cringe, and she looked like an idiot.

So her getting #1 is because she fell into a weird sort of loophole; The rank only considers scores for competitions that aren’t Olympic. And nearly all of the 2024 competitions were focused on qualifying for the Olympics. She only attended one non-Olympic competition, but she won it because all of the best breakers were focused on the Olympics. So since she won that competition, she was handed the title of #1.

The saddest part is that it’s not even an “or” statement. Police don’t even care if you’re a bootlicker. When push comes to shove, they’ll gladly stomp on the bootlickers too.

Which is a very easily recognized pattern, color, and size. The entire point of a dollar is that every single one looks identical.

Imagine if every single dollar bill was a different color, shape, size, printing pattern, etc… Now imagine trying to block that. Now consider that as soon as you figure out how to block all of the current versions, anyone in the world can just design a new version in 5 minutes.

Yeah homeslice was apparently speedrunning this shit.

Just a dude who wants to love his neighbor.

And the big issue seems to be that the two sides have drastically different definitions of the word “love”. There was a study a while ago, which found that conservatives are more likely to have liberal friends, while liberals are less likely to have conservative friends. It sounds odd on the surface… But the reality is that if a liberal hangs out with conservatives long enough to become friends, those conservatives will eventually get comfortable. Comfortable enough to start using hard slurs, or they will call the liberal “one of the good ones” as if it’s a compliment.

It’s no wonder that liberals are less likely to report having conservative friends. Liberals have tried, and have been burned by all of the conservatives that they got close to. Meanwhile, the most offensive thing a liberal does around conservatives is just… Exist? Relatively speaking, it’s easy for a conservative to keep liberals around, because the liberal isn’t constantly trying to undermine the conservative’s right to personhood. Whether or not you can own guns isn’t an immediate existential threat to a conservative.

Shit you get to print yours? Look at moneybags over here. I have to copy the broad strokes down by hand, and walk back and forth between my console and the family computer on the opposite side of the house T.T

Because conservatives control the house, which is the first step in impeachment. Even if the speaker allows it to come to a vote (he won’t) they will just vote it down.

If you mean changing which app natively gets used for texting, that’s not something you can do on iOS. You can choose to open a different app, but if I tell Siri to text someone it will always 100% without a doubt no way to circumvent it use the standard Messages app. iOS doesn’t let you change your default for texts.

Hell, they only allow you to change your default web browser because they were dragged into court kicking and screaming. And even then, all third-party browsers are forced to use Safari’s engine for the backend, and aren’t allowed to use their own engines. Even Chrome, Firefox, and Brave are just reskins of Safari on iOS. And even then, any apps that open an in-app browser will still use Safari even when your default browser is different. For instance, I’m browsing lemmy on Voyager, and it opens all links in a built in Safari browser, (even though my default browser is set to Firefox.)

I’ll confirm it for you: It’s so wet it sounds like a stomach gurgle. But for the mic to have picked it up, it had to have been loud enough to carry all the way to the mic.

There’s also a good chance that Biden heard it. You can see him look confused for a split second afterwards, then the realization hits him and he shakes his head.

Honestly? I hope he keeps running, then has a massive public dementia breakdown like a week before the election. I think Kamala can beat Trump, so keep him in the race until it’s too late for repubs to shoehorn anyone else in.

I actually figured they were against the vegan cat food thing, since the whole debate started due to cats being obligate carnivores and vegans killing them by refusing to feed them meat.

There were a few around that same timer period. IIRC, that’s also about when the whole /r/jailbait controversy happened, and the site suddenly had a really bad reputation among non-users. Like before it had been seen as a weird site, but then it was suddenly seen as outright predatory. Users suddenly didn’t want to associate with the site. Then the t_d stuff happened, which just compounded the issue of users not wanting to associate with the site due to the bad reputation.

Yeah, captchas have gotten worse recently. I had one asking me to choose “the largest animal” and it had an example picture of what was meant to be a lion. There was a rhino in one of the other pics.

It wanted me to click on lions, but then gave me something larger than a lion.

Edit: I just got this… Clicking on the flowers fails. Clicking on Skip fails. It wouldn’t let me try a third time to try clicking the cows, giraffe, or moose. But it clearly believes at least one of the three is smaller than a cat.

You can absolutely be comfortable with extra blankets stuffed inside the bag. I have done exactly this using a bag with the exact same ratings. It was juuuuust below freezing all weekend, my bag was rated for 20 degrees, and I was cozy with a few extra fleece blankets cocooned inside the bag. Maybe bring a wool blanket or two if you’re expecting it to be wet at all, because wool will retain heat even when wet.

Also, change your damned socks before bed. Lots of newbie campers make the mistake of going “I don’t wanna take my socks off and get my feet cold right before bed. I’ll change my socks when I wake up!” In reality, if you go to bed with socks that have an entire day’s worth of sweat and skin oils soaked up, your feet will stay cold all night. Change into a fresh pair before bed, so they actually insulate your feet instead.

Yup. Pretty much anyone who knew anything about copyright law agreed that they were making a monumentally stupid move. And their only defense basically boiled down to “bUT wE’rE a LiBRarY.” Which completely ignores the fact that even libraries need to comply with copyright laws for ebooks, via licensing agreements with the publishers.

This video takes on a new vibe when you learn that the actor has had several allegations of violence and erratic behavior. The dude lost like half of his brain in a medical issue, somehow survived, and is now a very aggressive drunk. Supposedly beating and choking a woman in his college comedy improv group, calling in a bomb threat on a train, etc…
