Aside from the BS of libs non-stop going hard to say that Trump winning will mean fascism and the end of all freedoms. Which makes it very stupid to then act like "voting harder" would be the only correct way to prevent said fascism (it also didn't stop the south from kicking off war). In addition to lame ass well wishes and showing the real colours of not really believing the threat to freedom.

I am starting to think that the dems and anti-gun republicans are trying to scare conservatives and pro-gun liberals into banning guns. As they would only push for bans if it directly impacts them and their leaders. But is more an idle conspiracy theory thought that I had after seeing the article. Wouldn't work well if they were doing so, as it would most certainly lead to lots of actual shootouts when state and federal agents attempt to take peoples' weapons.

They mentioned a woman also self immolated back in December? I didn't even know about her action! Bushnell being active service and live streaming made it very hard for the major outlets not talk about it (though we did see how much they tried). Nothing but the greatest respect to all martyrs and those currently fighting and surviving!

Seems that if a nation has gotten to the point of needing to send people to a whole different nation due to prison overcrowding. Then it really should be a crucial time to change laws on shit that exist to feed the prison industrial complex. But I am not shocked that the nation that was shipping people to Australia originally for the same reasons is falling back on doing it. Though I am kind of shocked that they aren't just funding the US complex to build prisons here to send them to.

They are fascists not men or women. They have chosen to abandon humanity of their own free will and have shown that they will murder everyone and everything that isn't them. Dehumanization is and has been what they believe and forfeit any rights to be allowed to continue.

From what I remember, the lead dev chose to use "he" or "him" in the code comments when referring to how a user would be using something. But then just kept closing requests to simply use a neutral term since a user isn't defaultly a male. Instead the dev justified keeping the term because changing it to "they" would somehow bring politics into it or something like that.

So he is choosing to just keep low level gender stereotypes about tech being something that guys do and use. Not sure of course if he is much more sexist beyond that, or if he is just picking a weird hill to die on due to maybe feeling "attacked" and therefore leaning into it. There might be other examples that I haven't seen aside from the situation above.

Would be nice if they also left NATO as part of joining BRICS.

Facts! Though the meme with her almost paints her nonsense as being true instead of the constant lying she does.

The Palestinian resistance groups have been saying very clearly that they welcome support like how Hezbollah, Yemen, Iran, and the Iraqi groups have been providing. But that they do not want other nations sending in troops. That they will be seen as an occupying force and will be treated as one. Though I might be conflating them entering Gaza and West Bank. So maybe the other areas that are "Israel" based on the 1968 maps? Seems like another chance for them to make a stop into PKK areas on the way?

For sure. Would be a big motivator for getting actual shit together and would then mean the next push would be Mars. Though I am hoping that China (with maybe some follow-up missions that include some joint stuff with other socialist nation members) will make it Mars first. Would be a missed chance to have the history books record that "the reds take the red planet" otherwise.

That makes sense, and I do like how it is a two-way street. I can get a feel for them and they can do the same. Thanks!

Was talking with a co-worker the other day about Limbo and INSIDE and how he should play them. Nice to have something similar to try out!

Very sad state of things. But being fair, I think NASA might be able to get at least a small injection of money if they stick to getting people on the moon again. Actually seeing humans land on the moon again would get more people excited about space (no matter which nation(s) end up doing it).

The robots, non-earth orbiting satellites, telescopes, and probes are very great for science but aren't "exciting" to a lot of people. We always hear about cool ideas about future possible manned missions to moons and planets. But it is always super far off and no real plans that would be anytime soon. We really really need missions that show humans making steps on something.

A rover for future follow-up missions will be needed. But after so many years, just doing dumb human shit like jumping around in low gravity and picking up a few rocks would be effectively the same as if the old landings as far as excitement. Shit like that can be something that humans from all nations can feel some amount of pride.
