Just someone being a cunt wanting to be a cunt about something without even taking the time to think or look into if they were wrong or not… I bet they don’t even come back to reply to any posts after being immediately shown how fuckin wrong he was.

Is this just the old games officially ported to an equivalent of the engine used by Stalker Anomaly?

UN keeps wringing its hands about it, without wanting to do anything about it.

Lutris and GoG is great.

You can log right into your GoG account via lutris and have immediate, in lutris, access to all the games you own to download/install and play.

if I had a nickle every time a techbro invented a bus or a train, I’d probably be able to afford a fucking bigmac

Its not entirely new.

in the 80s parents wanted to offload parenting onto the TV.

in the 90s parents wanted to offload parenting onto teachers and babysitters.

aughts parents wanted to offload parenting onto computers and video games.

now parents want to offload parenting onto cellphones and tablets. Cant tell you how many kids, even super young kids, I see with their faces absolutely glued to a cellphone or tablet. Even in my own family. Kids as young as 5 had their own smart phones, with completely unsupervised use.

and the one common thread in all of that, is how the parents never take responsibility for the damage their unparented, unsupervised children do or suffer.

Its always everyone elses fault. Its never mommy and daddy, who cant be bothered to give little Timmy even 5 minutes of their day, who is at fault.

I just don’t understand why people have or keep their kids if they hate them and don’t want to be bothered by them. It’d be less traumatic for a child to be given up for adoption and end up with a loving family, than to be raised by these types of people.

Reminded of that story of the mother who sent her (adult) son nudes to spread around his workplace and advertise her onlyfans for her.

Guy may have been an asshole, May not. We don’t know why he poked her with it. I’ve been in plenty of nursing homes where I’ve seen staff that deserved to be hit in the stomach with a sharp and pointy knife due to how they denigrate and disrespect the residents.

Regardless, it does not entitle him to being brutalized by cops with fucking bludgeons, tasers, and chemical weapons.

Same police that do and defend this shit, then have the audacity to complain that the public doesnt respect them.

“He may have lost control of the vehicle, hence why he hit someone, reversed, then hit them again, with fatal results. Its totally not his fault for being an impotent little man waving around a 2 ton dick”

America is pretty much the only country in the world that has ever accepted the tired, the poor, and the huddled masses.

No other country will accept a bunch of poor anyones with no money, bad health, and no unique and valuable skills. Not in any significant numbers that matter, at least.

and thousands? moving to another country would take hundreds of thousands, minimum. The paperwork alone for moving to, and getting citizenship in the destination country would probably require a hundred thousand alone, between lawyers and paperwork, not to mention probably a year minimum of time. Assuming you would even get that far to begin with, given Americas reputation on the world stage at the moment. It’d probably be treated as well as Russians wanting to immigrate.

Hell, even moving to another state is an expense most americans can not afford. Especially with the absurdity of rent prices being, in some places, as much as monthy minimum wage is, if not higher. Not to mention buying grossly price-inflated properties if you want to go the ownership route… anything that would be affordable will probably still need massive amounts of work to repair and make suitable for habitation.

S’why it pisses me off every time when some ignorant dumbass just goes " well if you don’t like it, move! ", cause I can imagine everyone that says that probably has rich parents that have funded their every whim, because how else can just up and moving at a whim be possible for the average person?

no worries man. S’all good in love and cast iron.

Thats not really “re-seasoning” when you oil it after washing, its just rust prevention if you don’t have a good cure on the entire pan… I would only oil a pan down if I’m putting it into storage for a good long while… and that oil gets washed off before I use it, cause even the best cured pan always seems to develop some rust in long storage otherwise, and that oil will have inevitably collected dust and other unpleasantness.

My regular everyday cast iron pan just get washed, then put on a burner for a couple minutes to dry off any of the remaining water (after i towel it off), then pushed to the back of the rangetop for tomorrow.

Obviously don’t take your hot pan, immediately wash it in cold water, and put it back on a hot burner, cause… you know… thermal shock will turn it into a fragmentation grenade*

*(comedic hyperbole, for those that will inevitably take this too seriously)

edit

and on the topic of seasoning the pan… I prefer doing it on a grill, I give my pan a good, thin coating of lard, throw it on a scorching hot grill, and basically just leave it until it stops smoking. Then I’ll take it out, let it sit to cool off a bit (just a bit, don’t want it getting cold, just want it to not burn through your oven mitt and flash off the reapplied lard) before adding another layer of lard, and throwing it back on the grill, again, until it stops smoking.

Depending on the pan, if its old one I’ve had to go at with sandpaper/steel wool, I will do more coats to build up a good base… for an established pan that I’m just laying down a fresh coat on, I may only do it once, or maybe twice.

Don’t need to put 100+ coats on it and make it a mirror finish, lol.

are you washing it? Like with soap, hot water? and scrubbing it with something like a scrubbing sponge?

Have to ask, due to the prevalence of people buying into the whole “you cant wash cast iron!” myth.

Cause, with the sides and even the handle being sticky and nasty, it sounds ALOT like just spattered grease never getting cleaned off.

The “patriots” want nothing but the destruction of everything they claim to love and worship with regards to America, the Constitution, etc, etc.

All so they can put a emotionally unstable manbaby pants shitting pedophile and rapist on a golden throne as god-fuhrer.

on this subject… I’ve been using linux for like…7ish years now?

when do I get my choker and stockings? Do I have to fill out a form or…?

This is the exact kind of apologia and handwringing that I’m talking about.

Treating them like they’re some poor tribals on an isolated island whose only technology is fire and spear making who know not what they do.

They are not.

They are capable of asking questions. They actively choose not to, because they’d rather live in the comfort of the lie, then face the harsh reality of a truth.

Most of them have access to the sum total of human knowledge in their pockets (and in those slim minority of a minority of times when they cant, there are still other ways to access it all), which they refuse to use, because that would mean having to step out of their comfortable little sphere and face uncomfortable truths about the horrific things that they support and cant ever, in a thousand years, handle facing the harsh reality of.

Choosing to be ignorant is not an excuse, or makes them victims, or whatever other stupid bullshit people like you try to label them as.

No need to be so defensive there.
