Pierre’s such a fucking rat. I’m really scared for the election, because he’s projected a majority right now and god, we cannot afford a conservative majority right now…

oopsies

If only they could make a Bloodborne GaaS, then Sony would fund it 😔

Housing is the jurisdiction of the provinces. There’s limited latitude with which the Federal government can act.

They’re not using those enough, but let’s not act like it’s all the fed, and not the provinces choosing to fuck us over too.

The usernames are just domains. Nobody can steal your domain.

i have a layman’s understanding of AT Proto, but it seems to compartmentalize between different parts of the service. Front ends, databases, and backends can be hosted separately and amalgamate into one, in the abstract.

Practically, however, AT Proto allows account portability, wherein users can swap what instance they use as a frontend on a whim, even if their home instance is down. Usernames are domains instance of username@domain, that are verified by the DNS. But AT Proto seems a lot less flexible than ActivityPub. We’ll have to see when federation is live, but I’m not sure it really suits anything beyond (micro)blogging.

So same situation as Epic

They have a 30% stake, but most of their other investments didn’t produce anything. Even riot’s down enough to have massive layoffs.

Huh didn’t know that. That’s definitely interesting.

That’s fair.

To me, it feels kinda cynical of the developers, like how a lot of GaaS trickle thins out just fast enough to not destroy their userbase. I prefer a little bit more reward as I play through, while obviously maintaining a slow enough pace that it feels like there’s reason enough to continue playing.

Different strokes though.

Not really. There’s a ton of other survival games I’d rather play, and the game’s progression feels like it’s deliberately just fast enough to keep me from closing it. After 8 hours or so I closed and uninstalled because it feels engaging enough to play, but not enough to be anything but chores.

The boss battles suck, the crafting has arbitrary timers to it. I just really don’t find it fun at all.

I love monster collection games, and I enjoy survival, but this definitely isn’t for me.

What sites would these be, out of curiosity?

Guess I’m just this dense, thanks.

AI has the potential to enshittify what would be immersive worlds in video games. Nobody wants their crafted NPC dialogue turned into ChatGPT garbage. Your comment is just propaganda.

Yup. Anyone who believes our federal police force is any less corrupt than that of our neighbours to the south is deluded. We have many of the same problems, albeit some of them manifest slightly differently.

15 seconds in, there’s unintentionally teleporting enemies

Steal everything. Fuck these garbage pieces of shit. Galen Weston’s gonna burn in hell, wearing some sweet kicks made from the flesh of all the Canadians he’s killed.

Yes, and I’d refute the expert in question on the merit of their points, or their qualifications, not solely based on who transcribed and reported on it. If your only argument against my entire post is that 1 website I used as a reference is Turkish, seriously, you need to work on your rhetorical skills.

By the UN definition, Hamas is a genocidal organisation

The UN does not define “genocidal organisation”, but instead defines genocide. Does an organization who intends to commit genocide meet the definition of a genocidal organization, or would it be an organization who has both the will and the means to, or would it be an organization who is committing genocide? That’s not defined by the UN and the nuance of that is very important to the claim.

Its founding charter, published in 1988, explicitly commits it to obliterating Israel. Article 7 states that “The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight Jews and kill them”. Article 13 rejects any compromise, or peace, until Israel is destroyed.

Here’s the charter. In the preamble it states “Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it”. The particular translation I’m using of this document has it written as “The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees.” I don’t speak arabic and as such cannot comment if perhaps it’s simply that the term they use for “fight” is also one that explicitly means to kill as well, or what, but the second part does make clear that the intent is to eventually oppress the Jewish people and send them into hiding.

I’d recommend reading through the entire document if you have time.

Does this invalidate the subject upon which they’re reporting, i.e. does this invalidate Neve Gordon’s opinion that Israel’s painting Palestinians as animals to justify their warcrimes?
