  • After splurging on EA, Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund is reportedly tightening its pursestrings, due to 'financial distress' caused by numerous troubled projects

    Jump

  • It's worth noting that none of these distressed investments are directly related to gaming.

    The irony is thick and frothy, a magnificent head.

  • I do this

    Jump

  • It's not a completely unrelated topic. It's just esoterically related, or a delightfully similar paradigm when juxtaposed.

  • Rule vs. Left

    Jump

  • Authoritarianism is far right along the spectrum, and liberalism is center, center-right or center-left depending on the specific tenets set by the movement. (There are multiple liberalisms out there.)

    Neoliberalism as practiced by the US Democratic Party and the UK Labor Party is right wing.

    Rule vs. Left

  • Open Source Developers Are Exhausted, Unpaid, and Ready to Walk Away

    Jump

  • FOSS works on the premise of an angry engineer, that someone finally got pissed off about a problem enough to write a solution.

    This so tracks.

    All we need is for the communist government to say we like what you're trying to do. Here's an allowance for expenses!

  • What you do with your windows button on your keyboard?

    Jump

  • I use my context menu key as the chording key to control any keyboard macro profiles, so that I can terminate, reload, summon for editing or summon a help file as needed.

  • What are the options if my country makes VPN's illegal?

    Jump

  • There are VPNs that operate in stealth mode so they don't look like VPN traffic as they're being used.

    Still illegal, but not detectable. No riskier than being a political activist antagonistic to the state.

  • If your lifes goal was to make life better for as many people as possible how would you go about achieving it, assuming you could get start-up capital for your project?

    Jump

  • I'd research an internet node that could be raised with a couple of bake sales and deployed anywhere with the objective of providing free high-speed wifi to the populated world.

    After a roll-out to get every point on the globe covered (that has people near it), we'd work on an upgrade campaign to make sure it is redundant and robust and never shuts down no matter how angry the local dictators are.

    The people have advantage when crowdsourcing repairs and reroutes around censorship and responding to DDOS so this should usher in a wave of democratic (lower case) movements across the world. Movements towards public services and benefits will likely follow, according to CIA analysts who study such things.

  • How do I torrent safely in the US if I can't afford a VPN?

    Jump

  • In the US, internet piracy is not a crime, but a civil infraction. And yes, our media overlords have been trying to make it a crime for decades.

  • swww renamed to awww, due to the author's guilt from obliviously naming it "final solution"

    Jump

  • Anyone else had moments like this?

    Jump

  • I had zero clue.

  • My parents like Pete Hegseth. How is this possible?

    Jump

  • In the case of dad, he's very susceptible to loyalty-driven advertising, and is true believers in several sports teams as well.

  • Anyone else had moments like this?

    Jump

  • As an ASD and a wordnik, ricing is a form of food prep homogenization, reducing a lumpy medium to the consistency of rice or finer, e.g. potato ricing.

    Maybe I'm missing a key element.

  • My parents like Pete Hegseth. How is this possible?

    Jump

  • My dad's a literal rocket scientist (just recently retired from JPL) and also a devout MAGA disciple and FOX News viewer. Human beings are just not sophisticated enough to deal with a trillion-dollar propaganda machine on their own. I don't know what the solution is, and we don't seem to have one so far, except to FO after the viewership FAs and elects autocrats and billionaire bro oligarchies into power.

    Some of us are able to acquire electoral savvy and vote defensively, but a lot of us are too preoccupied or too exhausted from work and vote on vibes, to dire consequence.

  • She fell asleep like this

    Jump

  • Your cat is working properly.

  • My parents like Pete Hegseth. How is this possible?

    Jump

  • Well, bad the way Edmund Povensie was bad while under the guile of the White Witch, or the way the Little Mermaid was bad (i.e. poor ) at seeing through the sea hag's hard sell.

  • My parents like Pete Hegseth. How is this possible?

    Jump

  • Situational sexuality has assured that every navy has been pretty gay (that is, sexually adaptable) since the inception of maritime travel.

  • Exhausting

    Jump

  • If the weight is crushing, the tasks aren't manageable.

  • I don't know who I'm supposed to date

    Jump

  • I was having a rush of encounters between my girlfriends. He was jealous, and my roommate decided that might be a red flag in their relationship. It was more that he didn't know fully what he wanted and was a bit opportunistic.

  • I don't know who I'm supposed to date

    Jump

  • When I had half a dozen partners, I'd see each one of them once every six months, so I was actually getting less contact than when I was doing serial monogamy.

    Curiously, when my flatmate had a boyfriend, I was having a rush and he was jealous of my busy schedule despite that it turned into a red flag for the roomie / his partner.
