I don’t love the difficulty of extremely fast individual identification but there is something to be said for the ease of extremely fast collective identification, it makes it very easy to see which group of apps each app belongs to, which is also valuable.

N-Gage 2 confirmed

This is pretty fundamental trolley problem stuff. If one choice kills 10 million and the other choice kills 5 million but protects the other 5 million, you refusing to participate entirely isn’t a noble stand, it’s saying you don’t give a shit about the other 5 million.

I care too much about these vulnerable people to help these other vulnerable people while not actually helping the other vulnerable people is just being an idiot.

It must be so freeing to live a life so simple and ignorant that you think your little world can be zero harm and morally perfect while living a lifestyle that would be remotely sustainable for the world. The world is a big and scary place and a democracy is made up of a myriad of perspectives on the world. We all do the best we can with the choices we have. To pretend that we can accomplish anything by refusing to participate in an imperfect system is absurd fantasy.

By all means protest, organize etc toward noble goals. But don’t act like “both candidates bad, myeh” is a real stance.

Dude fuck off, I’m sorry but there is no viable “tell Israel to get fucked” candidate. Biden isn’t bombing Gaza personally, the US military isn’t bombing Gaza. The GOP has showed they staunchly want to see it escalate and wipe Gaza off the map completely, this is a holy proxy war for them. Israel and its genocide has overwhelming support in US politics. None of this makes it right, but it does make it not a relevant issue in this presidential race.

You don’t pick a candidate that shares every belief and opinion as you. You vote for the candidate which will do the least harm and the most good and only the frontrunners count as candidates and you know it.

I mean, if you need a screen and controller as well a steam deck seems smaller.

I can’t believe I just got my CLP and no part of my study material told me or warned me about this term.

Never has your misinfo warning tag been funnier.

I assume the proportions of people who spoof their OS is slanted towards Linux

Or unless you have a weird roll holder that is super prone to overfeeding.

Look, I get the joke you’re making but seriously, people need to comprehend that the Geneva convention (even if we lump in the other treaties that often get confused with it) doesn’t cover what civilians are and aren’t allowed to do.

I and police for that matter can use tear gas pending local laws regardless of what the Geneva PROTOCOL says on the matter. Because I am not participating in a war in an official capacity.

A civilian doctor in another country might be tied by medical ethics codes he has agreed to but he is not tied by the Geneva Convention unless maybe if he is acting in an official capacity for the country and even then it would vary how international law would be applied because neither Hamas nor Palestine are signatories of that convention and likely Hamas soldiers are not fighting in uniform.

I am not casting a moral judgement on any of the above, I’m just tired of people not understanding what the Geneva Convention and the broader laws of warfare actually mean.

I do love our opossums but they are technically an invasive species in a lot of their current range. But they coexist so well with people that it’s hard to mind.

Raccoons are a national treasure and should be recognized as such.

Oh that’s what they did with the Active series, thank goodness I thought they’d stopped doing them.

🤦

There are 100% branded butt plugs out there.

Other places exist, but also it’s not even that far from half. About 20% of the total US population identifies as Catholic.

“or something”… You hid it didn’t you lol

You’re firing guns wrong

Have you ever noticed when you look into a telescope that it takes a little bit to position yourself right to see what you’re looking at? And it seems like you used to be able to do it a lot faster? That’s not age, that’s actually lag time added to cover decompressing the data.
