Corporations drill it deep into your head that you do not positively promote your own products or negatively review competitor products without both making it clear that you (1) work for $Corp; and (2) are sharing your own, personal opinion.

Giving the benefit of the doubt to Plex, they suck at training employees about social media policies.

Invented? No, a gift from the cosmos.

“No there isn’t. Evidence is fake, unless it agrees with my narrative” /s

Crucify? Oh, no, no, no.

They would have him arrested and detained by plain-clothes ICE agents, held in a Texas concentration camp where he would be bundled with the “illegals,” then shipped off to El Salvador to be starved and worked to death… Twice.

In her case, that’s even worse.

That’s not fair. Starlink is more than just a private enterprise—it’s a Russian intelligence gathering mechanism.

Buddy, quit while you’re ahead not too far behind. You’re just proving what @Tattorack@lemmy.world said: you don’t understand the difference between patents, copyright, and trademarks.

Another great post as usual!

For people interested in what’s been going on with Limited Run, here’s a 90-minute video that goes into a lot of detail about the sketchy stuff they did before this latest controversy:

A real shame the article omits the part about GameStop (the former parent company) being led by an absolute piece of shit.

Email M&A@gamestop.com if you’re interested in buying GameStop Canada or Micromania France. High taxes, Liberalism, Socialism, Progressivism, Wokeness and DEI included at no additional cost if you buy today!

Them actually selling it, and to Canadian business no less, is a blessing for y’all.

You’re making a very big leap in assuming I don’t condemn the Democrats and their attempt to convince voters everything is fine.

They’re a party led by geriatric, upper-class rulers. No shit, their doubling down on “the economy is fine” didn’t work—they don’t understand or care to understand what the people want. All they care about is what their corporate donors pay them to care about.

That doesn’t absolve the rural conservative voters, though. The literal definition of economy is the wealth and resources of a country as a whole. As far as things were going, our lovely oligarchs and mega corporations were doing just fine and skewing that number upwards. And that’s the problem. It’s not that we had a failing economy; it’s that we have disgustingly bad wealth distribution. A voter base capable of understanding what they’re actually asking for (higher wages, more purchasing power, higher taxes for multimillionaires) would have seen right through Trump’s sensationalist bullshit, not barreled directly into it.

If you grew up in the south, yes.

The economy wasn’t “doing fine” for more than half the population.

People who think like that are the reason Trump got elected.

the economy ≠ standard of living

The problem was purchasing power, wages, and inflation. People’s standard of living was suffering, but the “economy” wasn’t. Conflating the two is why Trump’s stupid rhetoric resonated so much with the uneducated Magats that voted him in: they thought he was promising to fix their standard of living, while the reality was that he was promising to “fix” something that wasn’t broken.

plus these are benches too it looks like

This part is the most surprising. For something meant to go in urban areas, where’s the hostile architecture? No railings between seats? No spikes?

Between EmuDeck and RetroDECK and having used both, I 100% prefer RetroDECK these days. It’s a single Flatpak install, it Just Works™ out of the box, and it doesn’t clutter my system with random crap sprawled everywhere. I also appreciate that it has a Steam Input template providing a way to do basically everything emulator-related that I could’ve ever wanted.

Major props to the team behind RetroDECK and the excellent work they’re doing. The future is looking bright, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store!

If you consider Republicans centrist, sure. They’re roughly equivalent.

That must make the corporate neoliberal Democrats sound like downright communists, though.

Tomorrow:

ACTIVIST judges HATE America! The Democrats, corrupt Hillary, they call it “checks and balances”. LIES. Checks and balances are NOT politics. Checks and balances are MONEY. The founding fathers, they told me themselves. “Mr. President, make big checks and tremendous balances. We made America great. You make the best deals, make it great again.” CANCEL the FRAUD checks and cut Democrat balances! America writes the checks! Stop the ILLEGAL DEI spending!

Well, that’s on me for only reading the summary posted here.

For life? Someone is delusional.

Maybe for 5 years, at most. Humans need food. Humans need breaks. Automated assembly machines? 24/7 production, no annual leave, no insurance plans, and no unionizing.

The up-front cost is much higher, but it’s cheaper in the long run. Good luck keeping that factory job long enough to have kids, let alone pass it down to them.

I prefer removing the -french language pack on every install. The command comes with a typo though, so you need to fix that for it by adding /* at the end

The silver quicksilver lining is that plague doctor masks might be making a comeback, at least?
