Hey man, they did the best they could with the minds they had available.

Why can't it be both? These statements aren't meant for us anyway.

We know. This wasn't a 'citizens needing help' thing. This is a 'propping up an archaic "job creation" law at the annoyance of the citizen' thing.

We know it's not all of you. Your generation also fought for civil rights, explored space, invented jogging I think.

We have shitheels in our generation too. And I fear they'll become more and more prominent as we get older. I hope we're able to dampen their greed and intolerance.

Rhodes also seemed to be the only one physically affected. Like his muscles had atrophied. I also found that curious.

Me: well we can't go out on a loss.

Also me: we can't finish in the middle of this (1) win streak!

I've fallen asleep during this movie 3 times now. It can't be that bad.

I disagree. It's not tech news. Twitter or X losing a few subscribers to mastadon or threads is a Sunday. And on Monday we'll get an article about people moving in the other direction. Distilling entire categories of news to one person or company makes us less informed, not more. We're just echoing the same talking points back and forth at eachother.

I'm definitely not saying Elon or Twitter is NEVER tech news but, jesus, I don't need or want to know about every tweet he makes and every shit he takes. I also don't think these things shouldn't be recorded in some way. But the magnitude it's posted is straight up Elon worship whether you hate him or support him.

I do what I'm able and willing by downvoting items that aren't news or discussion-worthy and not interacting with those comment sections but there is just so much. Is there a place to just read news about technology and not tech business tweets turned into "news" stories? This is a genuine question if someone has info.

Most of the chatter against it that I hear now is "parents pushing their kids to be trans" which, yes, that would be shitty but that simply isn't the case. I live in a very trans friendly area of the US. A lot of parents have degendered clothes and toys so it's pretty common to see male children in dresses and/or playing with dolls and female children with short hair and "boy" clothes (sorry I'm having a hard time coming up with an outfit that is quintessential boy). Do you know what the outcome is? Kids wearing clothes they like and playing with toys they like. They're excited about the things they like because they have supportive adults in their life and they're not forced to follow arbitrary societal rules.

Male children playing with dolls doesn't mean they're automatically trans. Parents aren't having super intensive talks about gender reassignment when their female child is playing with trucks or is "more sporty" than other girls. Gender is simply talked about more fluidly and kids are supported in their constantly changing interests.

Wait for a sale if price is an issue. From my perspective CS:2 looks like CS:1 with a bunch of mods and substantial DLC baked right in.

I don't mind supporting this company because they show time and time again that they love the game and the community.
