imo a subscription service is far more ethical than the current model. Its a very straightforward transaction. Now I have to convert real money to a fake currency (in set amounts of their choosing), purchase a pack of some kind, and gamble my way to a new pointless cosmetic item.

I know everyone here says that this is somewhat safe because the employees are told not to interfere. But what you really need to worry about is the store building a case against you across multiple instances of shoplifting, and then reporting you to the police as soon as you’ve stolen a felony amount.

Just checked in game and he actually does swing with his left. Never noticed until now. Apparently newer games retconned him to be right handed

Where are the actual sources of this information? Are there police interview transcripts available somewhere? Are there reports about a transcript from reputable sources? So far all I’ve seen is wild speculation by untrusted sources.

As of now, all I actually know about this guy is that he shot charlie kirk.

CNN recently reported it was in fact a different Tyler Robinson

Yeah guys the radical left “want transgender for everyone”!!

Is this seriously a direct quote from the president?

The details of this are so stupid I don’t want to believe it. I don’t want to jump straight to conspiracies before I really know much either, but seriously?

Maybe I just imagine political assassins to be more careful and intentional than they really are.

Its in moments like these that I really appreciate non corporate social media. Everywhere outside the fediverse all I see is people freaking out, acting like this is the first shooting to ever happen in the united states. Even supposed leftists are just like “I don’t agree with the man but no one deserves to get killed over their beliefs”.

They seem to have forgotten that people get killed over way dumber shit all the time. Personally I care about all the other shootings a lot more than this one. Especially the school shooting in Colorado that happened the same afternoon, which is being mostly ignored.

There are even lots of comments that condemn anyone making light of his death, or even just making comments about his politics. This dissent they condemn is almost nowhere to be found though, because algorithms bury it all straight to the bottom. The only opinion allowed to be seen is “I’m horrified look at me”.

Coming back to a place where a real discussion can be had makes me realize just how important this project really is. We need more spaces that we truly own.

This person has a very interesting relationship with their rep. I’ve never even met my congressmen personally.

You mean monster energy targets their branding and advertising to people who are more likely to buy their products? Unbelievable /s

I don’t know why we’re acting like young poor white men haven’t always been the main demographic for this drink.

Or don’t. Decent satire but absolutely horrible episode. I almost did a spit take at the ending. Its barely even a coherent story.

I’ve literally studied the creation of Unix yet they lied so confidently I was still questioning if I had just missed this somehow

Personally I can’t picture an ICE agent that is anticipating a regime change within their lifetime, but I could be wrong.

I don’t know much about the military, but I am very familiar with the marching arts. Discerning between two different tempos and keeping your feet in time with only one of them is a lot harder than it sounds. Unless there is time allotted to learning that skill specifically, I doubt any group of soldiers are going to do it flawlessly.

They may not fall apart, but its not going to look pretty. And apparently, it didn’t. If every soldier is capable of doing this, then why is there a whole post about how badly they did it?

True, but keeping time with the steps of those around you while music is playing at a completely different tempo is not something I would trust a non-musically trained soldier to do well.

Hear my stern words about how the time for stern words is over

Well that’s kind of a given, I was looking for something more practical. Getting that many people on the same page about something that could easily have catastrophic consequences for all of them is not a trivial task.

And how do you propose this be coordinated?

An info dump implies its giving too much info at once. Disco Elysium paces its story well, it just doesn’t conform to how you would normally tell a story within a game.

You sound like the alpha male people. We’re not wolves. We are capable of complex conversation, and we can behave properly out of respect for others and not out of fear.

Maybe children would be less receptive to tate-like figures if it didn’t seem like the whole world wanted them dead.
