The game would have been appropriately hyped if it weren’t for a few massive fuckups.

1. Resource gathering was supposed to be a cat & mouse game. But the potential PvP while gathering resources doesn’t appeal to the masses, so marketing added a “you can’t touch me” PvE flag.

2. Item duplication. There were exploits that allowed item duping. They didn’t reset the economy after those exploits were addressed, and they didn’t catch everyone.

3. They decided the content was too easy (especially given the duped gear above) and made everything much harder after a couple weeks. Again, no server reset. So if you didn’t get in in the first couple weeks and duplicate some items in that time, you were forever behind.

Let’s see who ends up running that. Government by the Walmarts, for the Amazons.

Yeah, guilty people go free when the prosecution and trial isn’t fair.

That IS how that’s supposed to work.

We all chose not to do that. Biden’s idea was that it’s ultimately up to the people to decide the direction of the country.

Anything he does to keep a political opponent out of office is damaging. Relying on the American people to do it is only foolish with the benefit of hindsight.

She was also just a true believer. Not like Vance or Jim Jordan or many others who just go along with it to get ahead. There’s a reason those cretins believe everything.

This northern Virginia federal prosecutor is also a true believer. She thinks she earned that position.

The app didn’t seem to respect the environment variable for X11 I tried to set for that one app.

I have an odd monitor configuration, one 2k high refresh rate, HDR monitor in the center, 1080p monitors to the left, right, and above. The right is also a higher refresh rate.

I could get it to work in Ubuntu… inconsistently. Sometimes I’d log in and have one 640x480 monitor in the center. PopOS just worked.

Yeah, my monitors didn’t work under Ubuntu X11. At least on PopOS, that just worked.

And if this movement picks up enough to actually be effective, how do you think it works out?

I want Omnissa (VMWare) Horizon Client to support Wayland. Until then, while I have to boot into Windows for one thing, I might as well boot into Windows for everything.

Maybe next year will be the year of the Linux Desktop.

Oh yeah, let me just go tell my employer to stop withholding federal taxes and see how that goes.

It’s this. She was a true believer, and now she’s discovering reality.

They love that people get their healthcare through their businesses today because that makes them closer to slaves.

Same reason they love H1Bs. Listen to me or leave the country.

I think I’m going Ubiquity, which isn’t entirely platform agnostic, but should work with Frigate just fine afaik. Would love if someone could confirm.

You first. I recommend starting out by posting your intentions on social media.

And some people know how to harness it.

Phase 1 was start a joke, ban anyone who calls it out. Very similar things are still happening, and I don’t know how to counter it on anonymous social media.

And no malice here, but yes. We all need to practice checking shit before we pass it on.

I know I’ve been guilty and had to go back and correct myself. Most recently in that AWS was taken out by literally a dude with an axe. (It was not. It was DNS. It’s always DNS.)

the_donald started as a joke on the Internet. (And those who pointed out the joke were extremely quickly banned.)

This administration is doing just fine at manipulating index funds.

Really, federal congresspeople shouldn’t need investments at all. A savings account or government bonds are enough. We can pay them a bit more to compensate if needed.

But they shouldn’t have any corporate dependency.

Reagan.

It’s still not great, even if it’s better than the alternative. Certainly better if you’re forced into it rather than stepping into that habit willingly.
