People think things suck in the present because they look to the past and feel things seemed better. Then in the future when things are actually worse, you realize that what was previously the present wasn’t actually that bad because you look at the current state of things and see it’s actually gotten even more shit than before. This is the downward slope of enshitifcation.

The amount of dismantling this administration is doing is severely under reported. Anything tied to science, education, regulation, services, government orgs, infrastructure, etc is being slowly and systematically reduced or eliminated. Those are broad topics but anything that falls under them you can drill down and find bad news. It will take decades to recover from this as things stand.

Do you know the details about the milkweed? Here in CO we have a native milkweed that many treat like it’s a weed. I often see people planting the type of milkweed I see in the south. I don’t think the monarch cares much but from my limited experience I’ve only seen caterpillars on the native variety in my yard (I have both).

I feel like for most people they think about supporting bee populations and they only see the honey bee when it’s the native local bees that need the most support.

You don’t want to play a cdpr game when it first releases.

Foot in the door technique is a timeless way to get what you want. People seem oblivious to it.

Takes a gaseous hit of whip cream

Yes this is really Gabe Newell diving in the water.

I can guarantee you these tech bros take it seriously. Because they don’t have to pay taxes and have boat loads of money it means they are quite serious.

Rimu is GOAT.

Cach6 was the smoothest experience for me. It can be difficult with other wldistros and also with cach6 probably.

I thought I’d seen some mention of some characters they put in fighting games like friend’s of the owner? One was a DJ. I can’t remember though.

Oh its much worse than that. There is this segment of rich tech bros who have emerged from an unregulated silicon valley. After decades of having their egos stroked there is a sort of tech fetish cult emerging. Thiel is the most prominent example of this but there are many others who are into this as well. They literally believe that AI will herald some sort of religious revelation. If you are opposed to AI or seek to regulate AI of course you are the antichrist. I wish I was making this up.

The only reason this matters is because these rich tech bro assholes haven’t ever had to pay taxes and the more money you have, the louder your voice is and the more you can pay to influence politics.

I wish there was a site that tracked new games for old consoles. I have no idea what’s out there.

Oh wow this is a much needed move from them. Keeping their data only in the US is a huge risk these days.

I wonder how a lawsuit like that would have any merit.

It’d be nice if there was a way to de-clickbait article titles automatically.

“Bucking Fastard” follows “Jean and Joan Holbrooke (the Mara sisters), who in search of an imaginary land where true love is possible, start digging a tunnel through a mountain range,” according to an official plot description. Orlando Bloom and Domhnall Gleeson are part of the ensemble. HanWay and Gersh are handling sales of the film.

Sounds like the competition is a critical part of repaying investors of your film and not so much about winning awards.

Harder to defend is assuming the company you work for is interested in defending it instead of using it as a form of punishment.

This poster isn’t doing the film any favors.

If you have to self police like that, you might have a gay porn problem.
