if they dont use that format then just get the email address of ANYONE ELSE in corporate. whatever the format that is used in their email is the format used for all people's emails. very occasionally is the directors emails different and usually that is because they use their own personal emails OR they had the email from way back when the company was starting and there was no standard format to the email address

we should improve the industry somewhat in c/games@hexbear.net

Just a heads up, a lot of his anti-piracy measures in his games are things like using the achievement system in steam to track your progress and stuff like that. So if you pirate them it checks for your achievements for that game, which you are unable to get, and then fucks with your ability to progress in the game.

It's Thor from PirateSoftware. He's not just a game dev, he runs his own small indie gaming company. So big conflict of interest in regards to this.

An American citizen says to a Chinese citizen, "In my country we have freedom of speech. I can stand in my country's capital and scream 'Fuck America' and nothing will happen to me."

The Chinese citizen replies, "In my country we have freedom of speech. I can stand in my country's capital and scream 'Fuck Israel' and nothing will happen to me."

Should be described as "human-made".

Women hold up half the genocide.

No, this isn't 1960. 2008-2023 is the date range. Only records were kept for people buried after 2016.

One of the bodies is a man who was hit by an off-duty officer. The PD said they could not identify him. His exhumed body had his wallet in his pocket with a state issued ID and an information card with his home phone number on it and current address. They charged his mother $250 to reclaim his body for a proper burial. That same woman had her brother killed by the same police department when they brutally beat him to death on the side of the road. A pig went to prison for it.

Death to Amerikkka. Fuck this demon cracker nation.

is just a tip jar for the staff, right

like surely none of the minimum wage workers are actually passing that along so the corporation that exploits them can use those donations as a tax writeoff, right

Protein Shake Pro-tip - Use Gelatin (hexbear.net)

I don't know why it took me so long to figure this out.

Add a little teaspoon of your favorite unsweetened gelatin-based pudding dessert powder mix to your protein shake. I put in vanilla or cheesecake or chocolate flavor but whatever you like and then I give it a good blend with a blender or milk frother. It doesn't really change the flavor much at all, adds less than 5 calories, gives you collagen which is good for joints, and makes a GIGANTIC difference on the texture of the shake. No graininess. Just a silky smooth drink even if you are just using powder, water, and a small bit of gelatin. Night and day.

EDIT: One caveat for our vegan/vegetarian comrades - research this. Some flavors of pudding are vegan/vegetarian friendly and some aren't. It even varies within the same brand apparently. I'm not vegan but I don't want to advise you folks to violate your dietary needs. Be well.
