Nice. I'd kinda like to see games like Minecraft become more like the Fediverse, where you could walk between worlds hosted on different servers in-game

But Canada is an unsafe place to travel, according to them

You need those immigrants to work the low wages you won't

Or, to put it another way: shitty corps and their govt lackeys need those pliable immigrants to work for the underpaid and abusive jobs that Canadians won't, rather than fixing the pay and working conditions

Indian with it's assassins and cult government...

Look for one used. They tend to pop up fairly regularly around here

Million Man March? More like "Double Digit Dumbasses"

Meh. If they've still got some free ones to give out I'll take it.

But in all seriousness, the Quest 2 is pretty good hardware, especially for the price. The problem is that Meta tried to build an ecosystem around monetization and then bring people in, rather than building something that appeals to most people and still allows them to profit. Kinda the opposite of the Facebook model really, which became a defacto online community and kinda kept the monetization a little quieter or behind the scenes for a long time

I've had windows do this to me randomly before, especially if it's an interface that comes up a bit late. Be careful that it doesn't change back on you

Yeah, I get that Bedrock is for consoles, but as far as far as "performance" that's mostly a front-end consideration.

I just wish that there was a level of compatibility where one could still self-host and allow the console etc players to join

Thank you for this! Last FOSS engine I used was OGRE but it was fairly inconsistent across hardware and PC only at the time.

How would they even track that it was "only the initial install", and what's the metric for that? If i need to reinstall my OS due to a crash, is that a second install for the game? How about if I replace a piece of hardware that fails, is it considered a new system with a new install?

The whole idea that they can claim additional fees for an "install" is ridiculous.

That's a great explanation of the terms. Thanks for that.

Given this, can you think of a word that would describe those who are hostile to the concept of a deity? Antitheist, perhaps?

Yeah, I don't find any religion I've ever run across appealing, but I have no beef with those who do good under the umbrella of their religion and don't try to beat on others with it.

As a fellow Canadian... I think we're at least as bad if not possibly worse than the Americans.

One of the reasons that we're getting fucked so badly on prices here is that the government has allowed so much power of industry to be concentrated into so few hands, and this has only gotten worse over time.

The government - at the behest of industry -literally tried to force tech companies to pay for linking to news articles, despite the fact that those links actually bring business TO said news companies.

The Irving's in eastern Canada are no better than DuPonte or PG&E. There's something seriously dirty going on there.

The Ford's in Ontario, and the current shit-show in Alberta are just as fucked up as any red state.

We're no better than the Americans, just less visible on the world stage as we sit in their shadow.

Also, I'd guess that the reason Trump and his closer cronies DON'T want a speedy trial is so that they can delay and push things out for a shot at getting Trump back into office or at least a Repugnican

And? You could take the same data and say- "religious persons are less likely to speak out againstmessaging that potentially promotes harm" (likely also dependent on the religious affiliation of the messenger)

The preceding message that this makes atheists the more "intolerant" group is a pretty massive reach, consider that the messaging they may be against could in itself be one of intolerance as per my example.

They're outrage-bait questions that will later show up on sites that basically try and make"viral" topics for posting on Facebook

Yeah, it looks like she was going to put up with it in order not to interrupt but the host absolutely had her back in identifying this creepy fucker.

Also, what is the relation of "a speaker" to religion? If somebody comes in to speak and starts talking about how we need to gas more jews, stop women from voting, and put the blacks back out in the cotton fields then fuck yeah I'm gonna support cutting them off and sending them packing.

What's getting destroyed? You wouldn't be able to login to the server but the data would still be there. Transfer the account (or make a new one) and the data's still there as well.

I'm more annoyed that Microsoft split off Java Edition and Bedrock into two pieces of incompatible software, but I'm honestly surprised they've supported the old auth services for this long.
