I just don't watch many shows and a lot of the stuff coming out I don't find that great anyway so I'd rather do something else with my time than pay more for worse service.

When I first read the headline, I thought it was maybe a good thing. Hurray for less military spending! I guess there's maybe one policy I might agree with.

Then I read the article and found the little "woke" nugget you mentioned. Seriously, conservatives are just completely fucked... I know people in the military and it's anything but woke! I'd like to see ANY of these fucking woke-saying assholes do a single day of basic training or handle even a few hours on an exercise!

Of course we all know that "warrior culture" in this context means kicking out anyone who's not a "straight" white male. Because nothing says warrior like being toxicly insecure about ones sexuality.

I just wish it meant bringing in Klingon codes of honour.

That's OK. I've already removed Netflix

The Bangle.js 2 is pretty cool

Smith is quoted here as saying:

"Have you not looked at the headlines about how Pierre Poilievre is described as dangerous?" the premier said. "How the leader of the Opposition in Alberta has described me as dangerous? When you start using that kind of rhetoric, that ends up creating an elevated risk for all of us."

She's complaining about being called "dangerous". That's hardly violent rhetoric and certainly no worse than the language they use to describe their opponents.

Sure, there are some individuals on the internet spreading violence, but you cannot equate the non-conservative media rhetoric with the violent and dishonest rhetoric coming out of conservative sources.

In this context the use of "they" is just proper English though. I can't fault someone who speaks a gendered language from using gendered pronouns as is proper in that language, but the use of "they" in English is correct and hardly political or exclusive. Every language is going to have rules that may be strange to non-native speakers, but any "confusion" is easily remedied by explaining that's just how the language works. I find that's also part of the fun of learning another language. I especially love trying to mix the rules of one language into another to see how silly it sounds. :)

This is something that bugs me too. Its not completely broken but there are a lot of small issues assuming you can even get the game to run at all

Nice!

Time for some Tribes or Heroes of Might and Magic.

Its infuriating how much time and money they are spending to oppress less than 1% of the population!!!

For a group that keeps screetching about freedom they sure do hate it.

Found them!

Yup, this is exactly what freedom looks like... 🙄

Yup! I don't have a PS5 but I'd have already bought it on Steam if it was out. Now since I have to wait anyway, I'll probably just wait for it to go on sale since the hype is gone.

Probably! According to Wikipedia you get 3-5 hours off of 6 AA batteries. Not sure how that changes with the TV tuner but battery life wasn't great.

It's based on Iced, but it looks like they have their own fork. Anyone know how extensive their changes are and how much gets merged upstream?

Because Bethesda isn't being cut out of anything. You still need to buy the original game to use mods. And most mods are made using the official modding tools that Bethesda released (Creation Kit).

Wow! This is the first I heard of this so I looked it up.

According to this article it looks like you need a particular build thats not in the nightly mainline, and its very experimental.

Still, its exciting to see them work on this! I use Tree Style Tabs with custom userchrome.css, but it is a bit fragile. Native vertical tabs would be great!

Good!

Sounds like it might even have a small impact on housing supply.

I hear you. It does make the software easier to use, but I also wish there was more control over when it was actually running. I usually just shut down the background process entirely until I want it running again, but it's a manual process.

I've been wondering if something like Tasker would help but I've never looked into it.
