I've got so many layers of adblock it's hard to know which one(s) are responsible for blocking the ads.

Please explain to me how not voting would have prevented your scenario.

[–] TheCraiggers@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago (8 children)

Agreed. While not voting is technically a choice, it's not a choice you should take if you want change. Let's put out the wildfire first, then we'll work on putting out the dumpster fire.

Unless people have a realistic third choice we can make. Ignoring the problem until it goes away isn't going to work though.

No, this is why you don't pass on the right. Not sure about where this was taken, but lots of places have laws about this. And the ones that don't, it's still a bad idea. The blind spot of the driver is worse on that side.

But you’re not even willing to consider any of that. Because of boats and cars and table saws…

Sigh. I'm anti-gun, if you couldn't tell from my post. But sure, put words in my mouth.

BTW, getting a license to drive a car/boat is much more difficult in most states than getting a gun license.

First of all, I already said I'm for more regulation on guns. Second of all, I'll basically invite further downvotes and say "good". That actually makes sense to me. I've long believed that people don't give driving the respect it deserves. You're literally driving a ton of metal and explosive liquid 70+ miles an hour in the dark with a lot of people around doing the same thing, houses scant yards away, all while you simultaneously talk to your friends, check your phone for messages, and adjust the radio. It's insane when you think about it. Realistically? I'd say the capacity for mass destruction is higher for driving than guns, but I'll accept the fact that's perhaps mostly due to the commonality of vehicles.

Agreed. Handguns are basically for killing people. I don't know why you brought them up though since we have no idea what kind of gun this guy used.

Next time a crazed redneck stabs me in the head with a US flag, I'll make sure to put my helmet on first!

Dang, was hoping for the new Doom. I refuse to play it with Denurvo, but I don't trust anything out there.

Fuck them for not even bothering to include two controllers in this purchase price. Those things are basic as can be; we're not talking dual-shock here. They had better be very cheap to buy.

Also, what's the point of including Combat if you've no ability to play against somebody?

Legally, you might be right. I don't know; I'm not a lawyer and I don't care enough about this case to learn about it.

But I'm not talking about legalities here. I'm talking about calling this person's moral character into question because he decided to go this route, which I don't really agree with. I don't care that it is built on top of Rockstar's code. Everything is built on top of somebody else's code. Again, not talking legalities here; but I don't see a difference, and don't agree that Rockstar should even have a say in this. They should sit back and be thankful that somebody created whatever this is which might just sell them a few extra copies of the game through no investment of their own.

I don't like DRM. I don't like people charging money for what is built on top of FOSS. But I also think it's the creators' right to choose how they distribute their work. /shrug

Eh, it's his code, his work. I believe he's within his rights to decide how he's compensated.

I personally think this method is a bad idea but then again I don't pay this game and don't even know what the mod does. Maybe it's the second coming or whatever and he knows his business more than I though. Either way, it's his right.
