  • "Muslim" isn't a race. Frankly all abrahamic religions are backwards, the difference is you can change your beliefs, unlike ethnicity/race.

    The word you're looking for is islamophobia btw. It seems english doesn't have a blanket term for religion-based hate/bigotry.

  • Mine are trained to understand that hissing = wrong, the kind you do when inhaling with your teeth clenched. Can recommend, you're very unlikely to make that sound by accident and afaik cats are great at picking up similar sounds (so it gets their attention better)

  • If it's something serious I take them to the scene of the crime, pinch the neck folds (do not ever carry them by that btw) and speak in an angry voice. Works best with cats that have more than 2 braincells lol
    edit: mine would ignore the ear flicks, it's not even an annoyance to them

  • Tbh for a broken clock Sweeney shows the right time remarkably often. Can't believe it, the bar for people like him is so low just being consistent is noteworthy lol

  • Reminds me of car startups (in the US) taking off one wheel, turning them into moto/autocycles, so they wouldn't have to go through expensive car certification processes

  • Sweeney is also offering a “peace proposal” from Epic: “If Apple extends the court’s friction-free, Apple-tax-free framework worldwide, we’ll return Fortnite to the App Store worldwide and drop current and future litigation on the topic.”

    Pretty sure this has a 0% chance of working.

  • Exactly, it's an awful treadmill. EA as a whole was at nearly 60% profit last year. Coupled with layoffs, it seems they're trying to keep that infinite spend as potential as possible lol

    I just hope something good comes out of recent ex-rspn teams.

  • Afaik they're still using awful third-party servers, lag compensation is still aggressive as fuck, they tried to "fix" visibility by slapping a bandaid in the form of healthbars, and the anticheat thing was another bandaid instead of a surgery. Overall it's kinda stuck, all of the old issues are still there.

    They have a shitload of new cosmetics though, if that's your jam. Funnily enough, they were so greedy even esport orgs didn't want to keep working with them. Rspn offered a one-time payment, orgs wanted a percentage of sales. Mind you, it's a fairly big esport that advertises the game for them (btw played on better servers than available in-game).

  • Imagine making billions (with an S) off of one game and still calling it a miss. Chasing infinite growth is so dumb.

  • They have late-stage Israel syndrome.

    Don't ignore the fact those guys were hit with a load of ballistic and cruise missiles recently and did alright. Not to mention drones and rocket arty on the regular.
    I do agree the US are wildly overspending in the era of disposable unmanned-everything though, and this one incident isn't gonna change their ways.

  • If you get an actual file explorer it's fine. I'm using a fossilized asus one because I got used to it years ago.

  • From what I've seen it has a lil sidebar that lets you limit the resources available to it. Also a load of shortcuts to giveaways and storefronts. It's also hideous, as all gamer stuff should be.

    Honestly it gives me more "lowspec" vibes, than "gaming", and there are far better ways to browse on low spec machines.

  • Maybe it's like an excuse to waste some time if you're done with your work but can't leave yet? That's my only guess

  • "Better" ads most likely, aka more personalized.

    edit:

    Google may have used this data to conduct focused ad campaigns back to those individual members.

    That's their exact language
