Please don't conflate markets, products and services with capitalism. That's yee old liberal con. Capitalism is a modern invention and it's all about speculation, non-existent liquidity, shell and shelf companies and bringing back usury run amok, what would have people burned at the stake during Jesus times.

If it were up to the lawyers and capitalists and not open source responding to it you'd still be paying to copy files. Imagine that? A subscription for basic utility, and removing it did not "impede competition" or "remove incentive".

But hey, if you want to, I could rig your phone and computer to pay me a dollar every time you copy or move a file, ya'know, since you're in to that stuff.

Problems solved.

Awwww =3 poor widdle doom scroller. Is there too much politics? Well tough tits, youngin! Everything is political and you should be able to accept it popping up everywhere.

As for fatigue from politics that try to subvert and enrage you, have you tried not listening to said politics? What? You watch Tucker Carlson?! GTFO here...

It should be everyone's duty to pee in the sink, as an expression of freedom from the radical left, that each man, woman and child release a golden stream of liberty into the bowl of degeneracy.

Therefore it's important to always remember: piss in the sink, but don't sink in the piss.

Probably some fodder for the "defund the IRS" club.

There's something I'd like to call "the Bethesda" bar. It's basically an industrial bar lower than most. Let's define what that means:

  • releasing the same game over and over
  • make games so buggy that a release with only a couple hundred of glitches is deemed "polished*
  • ignore progressive development for things like NPC AI
  • put all the money in marketing and hype
  • make the user think they're getting something new, rather than just another boilerplate game

I'm sure the story writers did some characters justice, but I won't be playing this game - especially since Bethesda claims it "can't run on older hardware", despite the fact that modders are proving them wrong.

The Betheada bar is a cancer upon the industry and I view it as consumer facing psy-ops, relying on brain-dead fanboys with nothing going on in their lives to squeal with glee as a new AAA-title is released to fill that void.

Tbh i hate the mirror universe now... from being a not-so-serious in-joke that came back every now and then, not as much as nudging the timeline, plot or characters into any too serious a direction, to becoming an important part of cannon that I just don't like... mostly because of Discovery and Picard.

It's really just too cheesy. Alternative universes, by all means, but just a mirror universe where there's a bit of a role reversal which stems from can only be described as "a trend in the 70s".

Mirror this, bizarro that, cod sarn it. To call it a gimmick is a bit of an understatement. To call it cannon is a bit embarrassing.

Now excuse me, I've ranted about Star Trek on the interwebz, so now I have to go fulfill the government mandated 3 hours of grass touching.
