And the reason to blame for that is that Democrats have shown they don't really care about working class people. So these people end up falling for the propaganda of the right since there's no real counter to it, especially with the Democrats capitulating on issues like immigration during this election. We need an actual progressive or labor party to bring these people away from the right. But the Democrats continue to refuse to become that party and without better voting systems a third party will only really work on the local level.

Could make an interesting pricier addon for down the line. Like the release version is just a dock but later on they release an egpu dock that you have to buy separately.

Yeah except Democrats are generally too cowardly to actually go that far. The most we'll probably see is lots of lawsuits against the federal government from blue states like during the last Trump admin.

Well atleast my representative was a no vote, wish more would be done but atelast my representative isn't following along with this.

I'm trying to remember if they have, I feel like most of the addressing of problems with sponsors has either been done on the forums or on the WAN show. And the reason why they probably don't do that unless it's like a really bad consumer affecting thing is because of how big LTT is now making a quick video isn't really as easy as for smaller creators. It's the classic problem of smaller companies or creators being much more nimble and agile to react and make quick videos about things compared to a bigger company like LTT that has writers that have to write the video, then they have to schedule a time to film it and since Linus would probably host would have to wait for him to be available, then it goes off to an editor to be edited, a thumbnail artist makes a thumbnail for it, and it's slotted into the upload schedule which already has a number of other videos in it. It's just a much longer and more expensive process that makes creating a quick video not as much of an option anymore, especially considering YouTube will punish your future videos if you upload a video that doesn't do as well. I still think they should have talked about it or atleast looked into it a bit more and realized there was a lot more going on but I understand why they didn't.

I think they talked about it on WAN show and said that other creators already knew which is why you haven't really seen Honey ads anymore even before the recent video came out and they didn't know about the consumer issues so they didn't think it warranted a video.

Same here, last time I got a booster I had like a fever the next day but this time arm was just a bit sore for a day then all good.

The only one I've bought is the one in Marvel Rivals but that's cause it was only $5 for a game I've already put like 50-60 hours in. Plus with the way it's setup if I want to get another one in the future if it's the same price it'll only be like $2 with the included currency you get from buying it. I generally agree I would rather just not have battle passes at all but I think Concord showed that paid games in this kind of genre don't really work anymore. Sure Concord had other problems but I'm sure it would have been better off if it was free to play with micro transactions as a lot more people would have given it a shot if there was no barrier to entry.

It probably becomes 1m 60s. I've had microwaves do it both ways, either having it only be in seconds or having seconds for two digits.

Edit: I'm dumb and very tired from Holidays, I'm leaving this up anyways though.

Well I think atleast with Amazon the unions arent very pervasive yet, there's very few unionized facilities since Amazon does everything in their power to stop it from spreading. The solution would be to unionize all the facilities so that the collective support of them all would be enough to really make a dent in Amazon. Also probably starting the strike earlier so it really affects people, maybe make it start right around black Friday to have a real big impact since I've seen that's the busiest day for Amazon drivers atleast.

I mean the strike started really close to Christmas, by that point I had already gotten the things I ordered online. If anything the only people this strike would have affected is the last minute people who live near unionized facilities or facilities with good union support.

Are there any keyboards without nightmare software. I'm coming from a Corsair keyboard and iCue sucks, and also the keyboard somehow stops controllers from working with Steam. (This is a known issue I've seen posts about on the official Corsair forum and they just won't fix it)

Edit: Thanks for the suggestions, I will look at some of those brands and see what they look like. I was originally planning on getting a custom one from Glorious Gaming cause I tried them at Best Buy and liked how they felt along with the replaceable switches and how customizable they are. But if anyone else has used this brand and has thoughts I would love to hear them.

I think that's where Indie games have really stepped in. There's been a lot of good indie games that are just a nice complete experience on their own. And with them being so much cheaper it's harder for AAA games to compete.

That's definitely a problem but that hasn't stopped DSA members/endorsed candidates from winning elections at the local level. Which I think is really the only way a party can build momentum, starting from the bottom and working up. And I mean a labor party would have the same issue because as soon as any kind of left of Democrats party gains momentum the media will immediately start attacking them as socialist. So that's just a problem that needs to be challenged by showing the popular things we would want to do and fighting back against the stigma associated with that cause no matter what that stigma is gonna be there.

I mean atleast recently there haven't been a lot of new battle Royale games. I haven't seen a new big battle Royale game in a while, at most you get shooter games having a battle Royale game mode on top of the normal game modes they have.

If you're interested in that you can always check out the DSA and see if they have a local chapter in your area. They're not a political party right now but imo if anything is gonna form a true labor third party in the US it will most likely come from there.

Sure on the national level that's true, but on the local level third parties can definitely make big gains in areas that are safe democrat seats traditionally. Then from there you fight to implement those kinds of systems at the local level and work up from there.

Are you in a right to work state? That might be why, at least in Oregon when I got a job as a cashier it automatically made me a part of the union.

If I remember right they were involved, and there was some kind of agreement between the factions to not attack each other until the Assad regime was gone. So will have to see what happens now that the regime has collapsed.

I did hear he actually most likely took a bus out of NYC as they had footage of him entering a bus station but not leaving it. It could be hard to figure out which bus he took although if he had to buy a ticket from a person there it might be easier.
