I switched to Kubuntu, mostly. Still have dual-boot just in case.

In terms of logic (assuming the standard arithmetic definitions), both are true: a statement of the form "if p, then q" is always considered true when p is false.

If you're helping people transition it's good, if you're forcefemming people it's not. Simple as that.

(Also, fun fact: there's a drift in meaning somewhat like this for "feminist" as a loanword used by Japanese speakers.)

The ongoing Star Wars rage farm has me distrusting Star Wars fans these days.

Those same Star Wars rage farmers are trying to extend into Star Trek to mild success. It's not as pervasive as the Star Wars rage farmers but they are there.

But over all a t-shirt in general does not lend itself to trust.

I'm sort of baffled at the rage-based people asking "when did Star Trek get all this social justice stuff in it?" Especially when the easy answer is TOS: "The Cage", the very first episode. It had that before it had Captain Kirk.

Shouldnt do that, Shales Backstory is heavily involved with the Dwarves and thier pivitol story moments comes at the end of that questline.

To add on to/intensify this, I'm pretty sure that Shale's personal quest just can't be done if Shale isn't in your party when you get to the Anvil.

but i'm not a dwarf or an asshole, i'm just a mage who wants people to stop being dumb. also morrigan's butt.

Relatable, but as a girl I unfortunately can't. (Definitely a disappointment my first time through.)

My understanding is that the Xbox has mandatory cloud saves. Which is a significant reason why I didn't buy an Xbox this gen.

I'm pretty sure you can disable it, I thought I did. Though there's always the 'disconnect the Internet' option.

Is this the only reason they did that

Personally, I did it to transfer things between different consoles without having to use some paid cloud service. But if I want to edit my single-player game saves there's not really a good reason to stop me.

Does the Xbox Series let you copy savegames to a USB drive? Because the main thing I dislike about the way the PS5 does it is that I can't do that anymore, especially when the PS4 could.

Do I get to keep the effective bottom surgery beyond our current technology needed to make this work? If so this is a fantastic deal (as long as you actually want that, of course, I know it's not for everyone).

I never knew there was a DS version of it! I actually have played it, after seeing someone's LP on a small forum somewhere. Art quality is not great, as with indie games of that era, but it was earnest and had a certain charm to it.

I'm not sure where even sells it anymore on PC, if anywhere; I got it from GamersGate (unofficial motto: we had nothing to do with it, and we had the name first) but they don't have it anymore.

I'd say the way this comes off varies a lot depending on your setting; one of the important things is what sort of position the group is in overall. Like, if someone's prejudiced against elves in a traditional fantasy sort of setting where they're powerful and doing well, it feels very different than it does in a setting where elves are an oppressed minority (my go-to example being Dragon Age, in part because you can also play as one yourself).

I can't believe I never noticed Rowling's bigotry in the Harry Potter books; the way Hermione was treated as weird for being an ally of house elves.

It's definitely something that sticks out negatively when you think about it; usually when I see someone else trying to address it (in fanfiction, say) this is either taken seriously as a problem to correct, or worked around by the actual situation being some other kind of weird magic thing (or possibly both).

Dias or Leon? No choice at all.

I honestly view Dias as one of the few downsides to picking Rena, he just irritates me more. If you're going to give me someone annoyingly arrogant they can at least be small with cat ears, it's more fun that way.

I wont support the Cow chicken place. Popeyes all the way. It is too bad, I miss the diet lemonade.

Yeah, I think I'd like the CFA sandwich better, but given their CEO wants to spend a ton of money on hating me I'll pass.

I never had a chicken sandwich I liked - they always destroy them with mayo-likes

I don't like that stuff either, but I just ask them to leave it off and then it's fine.

I don't like it myself, but I tend to be a bit confused if someone consistently says it's terrible and yet still has it on. I haven't encountered any devices yet where you can't turn it off if you want.

Any topic that starts with a link to a video, with no summary of what it's about or why I should care, just makes me want to rant about the many evils of pivot-to-video.
