Thank you for this bit, I thought I was going to be SoL.

I hate to be that guy, but I feel like it's time for mass exodus to either Linux or Mac. Even if you perfer Windows, such an event would only pressure them to improve it.

I have a learning disability (happened later in life) so I can't learn a new OS.
I wish Linux had gotten support & been as convenient as Windows back in the day so I would maybe be able to understand it more, but everything's been sold with Windows pre-installed for so long (unless it's a Mac but... ugh it's a Mac).

I do have a spare 3070m laptop with 11 (Home) on it though, even if the privacy concerns are annoying.
In hindsight I should've gotten the 3080m but I digress.

First run finished on Night 16 using the torches.

The torches are pretty fun to use, just hold attack & move around with no delay between attacks.
I reckon an epic Hephaestus attack Blast boon, an arcane regen boon & a faster cooldown boon would work great (if you're blessed by the RNG).

This game is bloody awesome, I'm having a difficult time ranking it against the 1st game since that was also fantastic.
I think maybe the way the story has been unfolding is a little weaker, since Hades gradually opened up in order (I'm also having a harder time against Chronos than I did against Hades in the 1st game & haven't been able to beat the 2nd phase yet).

I'm not sure if it's easier or harder, since I had to rely on God Mode for the 1st game but I've not used it yet on Hades 2.

Of course.
"That time America decided to take notes from Nazi Germany", Trump will be remembered in infamy.

I say "America" because that's just how history remembers these events, not all Germans supported the Nazi movement but we still refer to the country when talking of history.

Does this sort of behaviour prevent him from receiving a nobel peace prize?
I mean it certainly should.

Trump is all for impeaching himself, get it done.

On the one hand, hopefully this will push Russia into focusing more on their own country instead of their efforts to return to the USSR days.

On the other... if Russia's ice melts then the world is fucked. Russia needs to wave the white flag.

2. Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough.

Yeah right... for their benefit, no homes getting demolished to make way for Trump's resort.
This is all about Israel trying to gain land, you can see the same thing happening with Russia against Ukraine.

Why the fuck does Israel have so many children held prisoner?

& the idea that Israel has the bodies of 15 deceased Gazans for every 1 hostage is disgusting. Did they torture them to death?
48 hostages remaining = Israel have 720 dead Gazan prisoners.

I thought this was about "handsome" Dr Mike for a second.

Heck, take it a step further and allow adult content as long as it's properly labeled and age-restricted.

I would hate if Gamefaqs started age-restricting content, as that would mean requiring face-scans to verify age for the countries enforcing the garbage new age verification law.

Wasn't this scenario exactly what the Second Amendment was created for? To fight against a corrupt government?
I'm not American though, just an outside observer.

Silence from the "We can't give Ukraine our old shit 'cause money" crowd.

Or the "Why should we give money to people who hate us!?" crowd.

but there is a chance that this is in relation to Microsoft's poor performance during this console generation.

Absolutely not, I say this as someone who dislikes Xbox & a lot of MS decisions. A stores management would be stupid to make such a drastic decision just because Xbox is selling less than the competition, it's not doing as well as them for sure but it's not doing shelf clearing bad numbers.

yea, that part stood out because if the teacher was there, an adult was made aware then?...

Yeah, he's an 11 year old so he's not completely aware of what would be right, he both made the teacher aware & made sure the gun wasn't able to be used.
I'd imagine it could have been a worse situation if he went up to the teacher & showed them a fully intact gun, that could cause panic.

It worked for a moment, back to reality: Release the files.

He's desperate for that peace prize.
As mentioned above, that doesn't read like any of his prior messages so it could be someone else wrote it for him.

The IDF regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and operates to minimize harm as much as possible. The incident is under review, it said in a statement.

Who do they think they're kidding? The deathtoll of innocent civilians is over fifty thousand.

I was going to try to trick the system by having the money paid to me over time like those "Set for life" lottery prizes, so I'd get paid a bit of it per month.

I voted yes anyway, I have a few long term life changing injuries I'd love to heal.

I've been reading more of the long term damaging effects of AI like how AI datacenters need massive amounts of freshwater to cool them.

Asserts they 'used violence' with no specifics other than that they scared people with smoke bombs. Government justifying its authoritarian crackdown.

It mentions pyrotechnics, not just smoke bombs).
Palestine Action's section goes from 5.2 to 5.8

They are protestors who seek to disrupt and damage the corporations and military who are aiding and abetting mass slaughter. They are not terrorising the public. They are branded as terrorists because they target corporations and embarrass the military and the government.

It's in 5.2, they don't just disrupt & damage corporations & military who are aiding & abetting mass slaughter. They are also disrupting & damaging corporations & military who:

provide services and supplies to support Ukraine, the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation
(NATO), Five Eyes allies and the UK defence enterprise

I mean yes, sure, the UK shouldn't be supporting corps/militaries who are aiding & abetting mass slaughter, that is a good part of the movement but there's more to the group than just the name implies.

Not sure where you're getting the information for sources stances from or why it matters honestly when there are other sources within them & ways to find info from sources you do trust, I'm guessing you're outside of the UK since the telegraph site isn't paywalled for the UK.

(Sarcasm aside, I actually don't endorse everything Palestinian Action has done. But I do object to seeing peaceful people handcuffed and thrown in the back of a police van for holding a sign. It's a disgrace).

I agree but that's because people misunderstand Palestine Action & are objecting to the ban (some just to cause a scene), meanwhile becoming associated with a terrorist group through supporting them means the protestors get arrested, get a background check & are then released if they have no actual ties to the terrorist group.

(Also yes, I don't support or agree with anyone involved in the racist London rally.)

Either you don't understand what he said or you don't understand communism.

To be honest I may have misunderstood what he said as I can't actually remember all of what he said other than "mass redistribution of wealth and power", which sounds like it's a counter to capitalism.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Unless he's clarified further, Corbyn's initial description of his party sounded like they support communism rather than socialism or capitalism.

ai123 posted...

There are many groups that have committed far more violence against people than Palestine Action, which targets defence contractors and the military, and aims only to do property damage. The government keeps asserting that they are extremely violent, but provides no details on all the acts of violence they are alleged to have done.

They did, however, commit the unforgiveable crime of severely embarrassing the government and the military by breaking into an airforce base and putting a couple of planes out of action with spray paint.

And because of that, if I did support them, I would be unable to tell you.

Glad the game got a bit of mainstream media attention but damn that was a really weird situation to choose it for.

Good.

Means nothing is Palestine action is still gonna be recognized as a terrorist organization or whatever

Members of Palestine Action did in fact commit terrorist acts & have been for a long time, so supporting them means you're assosciating with them even if it's a peaceful support, people only see the ignorant peaceful protestors instead of who they're supporting unfortunately (they may be called "Palestine Action" but that's not all they're about):

What you should do when a fascist is in power is resist. Not fucking collaborate.

Thanatos_the_Great posted...

I'm sure they do, but they're not good reasons.

No, this is how you make sure you continue to have a dictator as POTUS. No one ever removed a dictator by collaborating with him.

Both correct, but it's a slow & secretive effort to build a resistance rather than making it obvious that you could be a problem & therefore lose your spot for voting against more dangerous things.
You both avoided the middle:

They're probably stuck between a rock & a hard place, because hatred & violence is what they try to speak against while the person in question promoted hatred, but Democrats are also (publicly) against murder so they can't justify the (public) celebration of it.

There's having a spine & then there's playing along so that they still have a chance of a Democratic party in the future, this is what happens when you have a dictator as POTUS.
They're probably stuck between a rock & a hard place, because hatred & violence is what they try to speak against while the person in question promoted hatred, but Democrats are also (publicly) against murder so they can't justify the (public) celebration of it.

I wonder if anything happens to those that voted against it.
ps. This isn't a justification, more a question of what you do when a dictator & his Gestapo-like army are in power, honestly.

There are simularities.

Perhaps if:

• the ads weren't garbage, scams or injected with malware
• didn't interrupt livestreams
• didn't interrupt ASMR or other relaxation videos
• didn't last more than 30 seconds

I might be willing to turn off adblockers for select Youtubers.

I think it's time for the world to block flights coming from America, all this anti-vax stuff is allowing the reemergence of deadly diseases that were previously stamped out.

Yeah... that's like... he didn't even joke about Charlie Kirk, he just showed Trump's lack of grieving & way of making everything about himself.
Does a laugh track or putting up the "laugh" sign suddenly mean he made a joke?

I think they're more likely angered by the fingerpointing comment because the right do not want to acknowledge it.

It's called the 360 because you ended up right back where you started.

Thanks archive.
We should probably expect an attempt of takeover or a dismantling of archive.org in the future.

So they regret their vote but... they don't regret Trump winning?

Nope. People assumed he was a groyper but it doesn't seem that's the case

I see. I also just learned what a groyper is.

On topic, freedom is in danger, all these attempts to database people for their views shortly after the whole 18+ content ID mess that's been going on.
On a lesser note Google intends on removing freedoms from Android (also with developer ID requirements).

Wasn't it revealed that the guy who assassinated him was even more right leaning than Kirk?

Said it better than I would have.

Windows 11 is stable and better than 10 in almost every workflow. My only criticism is the right click menu.

For those that still want to bury their heads or don't have hardware from the past decade, there's always Endeavour and vanilla Arch.

It'd be great if they allowed us to get rid of a lot of the bloatware & free up some RAM.
Also would be nice if they tested their updates more, considering a recent update has been screwing with SSDs.
I'm glad I have a backup laptop with 11 on it for when this W10 lappy reaches EoL, kind of wish I went for the Predator 4080m instead of the Predator 4070m on the W11 lappy though, but I digress.

Since it uses the word "suspected" or "potential" I assume this isn't the whole list & they could in fact be missing names if a visitor/friend of Epstein sent their payments through any of the listed companies/identities?

Jokes aside:

Polanski will be under pressure to show he has not just the patter but also the judgment, with some eyebrows raised by his call in May for the UK to consider leaving Nato, which was not in the manifesto.

No thanks.

Nintendo also. They pulled all those ROMs for the Wii VC off pirate sites and then act like fans are the problem.

Wasn't that debunked & was because they hired an old emulator developer who used that header (The iNES one)?

I dont know how accurate that is. But gross. I saw a comment that said The Jedis attack has left me scarred and deformed.

I think the AI is borked, it's doing weird things to the S & the American flag on his hat.

Is Vance even qualified to be a "good" Republican president, or will he be even worse considering the leaked military messages?
