imagine a world where she’s the least progressive politician. That world includes her, and I’m cool with that

unironically yes. I saw a Sony? branded EV with a long thin screen on the front bumper playing Ghost of Yotai trailers.

imagine how impressive the orcas that did this are.

specifically at the moment he comes over to watch a wolf reloading an AK.

Abyssmal. The AI data center people have bought up all the torch fuel and John Deer installed DRM and kill switches on the pitchforks after establishing monopoly.

I hope it was Orcas.

I wanted to talk smack at you but honestly that’s kind of a fun idea

he put a guy with a dead brainworm in charge of health.

Do you REALLY think anyone suckling at his teat is going to care about experts? They all universally hate experts, specifically because those people call them out of their nonsense.

makes sense

I’m fine with laws offering no protection to me from robotaxis as long as the law offers them no protection from me.

PSA about how much of a piece of shit Ken Paxton is:

https://thebarbedwire.com/2026/02/17/ken-paxton-scandal-timeline/

He doesn’t give a fuck about kids, he’s doing this for free publicity in hopes of getting elected to national office. Don’t give him any credit. If he or his compatriots cared, they’d pass laws to protect their citizens and enforce them equally. Instead they pass thought crime laws and enforce them specifically in progressive cities

THE CULT OF THE DEAD COW HAD STANDARDS THEY WOULD NEVER HOW DARE YOU.

a broken clock is always wrong because you can never trust what it’s telling you, just like Ken Paxton.

correct, that’s called regulation. Ken Paxton is only capable of crime, so this is him shaking Netflix down. Honestly they deserve each other. Netflix has cash to spare and they keep increasing their subscription prices anyway.

The secret sauce there is linux support. It may sound like a marginal thing, but Valve has been working on making Linux gaming viable for over a decade now and it’s paying off in spades. GOG exists, sure, but they’re a fraction of Valves influence for a reason. Besides, there was a DRM free distribution chain before GoG that everyone used, it was called piracy.

My steam key to download steam came with my physical copy of half life 2. I was there when the old magic was written, and that HL2 box was the last physical game I ever bought for my PC. For the decade before that, almost all my games were also digital copies, just not legit ones ;) And that’s the part you’re missing. Steam and Netflix were both easier and higher quality than pirating and cheap enough to justify. Netflix decided to milk that for all its worth, but Valve stuck to its plan and has consistently offered a very good alternative to piracy, which won over a generation of digital media hoarders.

yacht makers hate this one simple trick.

that room is cooked
