The UK Stop Killing Games petition has reached 100.000 signatures

  • Just threw me for a loop for a moment that it uses the same name and that this page displays links to both.

  • Bro still acts like this was about balancing the budget? HE GUTTED THE IRS!

    • Video games spending by young Americans is dropping sharply, report suggests

    Jump

  • Also, the games market was brought up a lot by the global pandemic and had to come down eventually.

  • Whats wrong with PirateSoftware? He runs a ferret rescue which doesn't claim any tax incentives and he teaches people about security and ethics, I've never heard of him having beef with anyone.

  • Hmmm? The UK isn't part of the EU anymore so they won't have much impact lol.

    • Ted Cruz's plan to punish states that regulate AI shot down in 99-1 vote

    Jump

  • Not really, the entire bill is the worst thing to happen to the USA in a hundred years, Ted Cruz's tiny portion was just so stupid that even the party of destruction disliked it.

    • How differently would have information technology developed if most of the world were under authoritarian regimes instead of liberal democracies? Would encryption have been more restricted?

    Jump

  • The internet would probably not exist outside of government and military use. Without the consumer incentive there would be no profit incentive and technology as a whole would have stagnated and the majority of computers would be akin to institutionally owned datacenters and supercomputers but with vastly inferior capabilities to the ones we have now.

    However, non-networking devices would still exist and be popular, so things like videogame consoles would still be seeing some development, and possibly so would personal computers which rely on physical media being traded person to person.

    I am certain technology around electromagnetic waves and telecommunications would continue to develop, possibly much slower, and that people would utilize it to create networks even though illegally, but it would be very few and niche.

    • Weeks after changing owners Nexus Mods updates rules on "illegal" and "adult" content, but even the original owner says calm down, it's purely about following the law or being "fined out of existence"

    Jump

  • Hmmm, bit curious about the automated enforcement system, but they claim the newly unallowed content already wasn't allowed before and they're just changing the wording of the terms.

    • Oh Boy!, Golly!

    Jump

  • The phrase Golly has fallen out of popularity given its roots in racist caricature "gollywog" which sucks because honestly what a fun to say word that was.

  • I'm sorry but I'm chuckling at Guy Fawkes making this statement.

  • The SCOTUS already announced he could take citizenship away from ANYONE. Literally ANYONE, even people born here. The horrific part has already come to pass, my friend.

    They're already trying to build their own personal index of recognized citizens that the president has full control over.

    • Trump administration raises possibility of stripping Mamdani of US citizenship

  • Just like nothing happened when George Floyd was murdered? This camel's back isn't unbreakable.

    • US halts weapons shipments to Ukraine over fears stockpiles are too low

    Jump

  • Who the fuck would we be using these stockpiles against if not Russia and China? We should be sending as much as possible to Ukraine, that's how we defend the USA now and far into the future.

  • Honestly? Fucking do it. Piss off millions of people within earshot of DC. Let's fucking see what happens.

  • I wonder if the one downvote is somebody confused that maybe you're defending her, which is clearly not the case, or if you at some point made a tankie upsetty sphagetti and now they stalk your posts lol.

    • The Billionaires Are Abandoning Humanity

  • I read a wonderful short story once about mankind venturing into the stars where they become a symbol of hope, friendliness, and community across all physical and psychological barriers. They would be the ones you turn to in times of crisis, to deliver aid and make repairs, to mediate in times of conflict and to bring joy in times of celebration.

    However, occasionally, the humans would see one of their own ships adrift in the sea of stars, and they would stop at nothing to destroy it. The abrupt and merciless hostility would always shock onlookers and associates. "Why" they always ask. The answer was always the same; "when the earth was suffering, they used up our resources and left us behind."

    • Why AOC should run for president in 2028

  • Independent Party Bernie Sanders was invited to participate on the DNC presidential tickets on multiple occasions and in 2016 he earned over 13 Million Votes compared to Hillary Clinton's 16 Million.

    If 4 Million more people voted for Bernie Sanders then he would have been the name on the Democrats ticket at the top of ballots across the nation.

    The DNC had absolutely no incentive nor obligation to run Bernie in their primaries, they like his policies and gave voters the option to have him represent them as our president.
