  • It does get tiresome going to steam threads and seeing the same copy pasted "don't ruin the game with woke shit" post up voted to the top.

    There's a pencil thin line between farming clown emoji and overt bigotry getting pumped to the top of the reviews section by bad faith actors.

  • Brocero Program 2.0

    It's funny how the US relationship with Mexico and South America has ping-ponged back and forth between "We need these people to sustain the economy!" and "These people are invaders who are erasing our culture!" for like the last century.

    I said it back during Trump's first term and I'll say it again (and again and again as time moves forward, as I'm sure people will never wise up to the game) - illegal immigration is a nothingburger of an issue that gets puffed up every time an authoritarian needs a scapegoat to blame all of societies woes on.

  • This is quite tame compared to what American Nazis got in the 30s and 40s.

    Remember, when you beat them bad enough they'll have more time to think about the error of their ways while confined to a hospital bed.

  • If they go through with it, flood their tip line with calls about Melania and Elon.

  • Pretty sure the consensus in the medical field is that vaping is less bad than smoking and if switching to vapes helps you quit tobacco that's a net positive, but ideally you should do neither.

  • So the narrative the other day was drug cartels were swarming the airport with drones and that's why they had to shut it down.

    Was that a total fabrication to cover for this obvious false positive?

    Also answers my question for "How come nobody has drone bombed you-know-who yet?"

  • So they haven't walked anything back, they're just adding in a motherfucking clanker as a middleman. What could go wrong?

    Big corporations have absolutely laid waste to the internet. There's nothing left unspoiled at this point.

  • Im surprised as how many people discount this feature. Sometimes I sit in voice chat in my small Discord server alone for hours because nobody would show up if nobody was around.

    We're all adults with jobs and responsibilities and shit, we don't want to have to dial people in to shoot the shit late at night. That would feel like a chore.

    An alternative with no drop in voice chat is a non starter for my group.

  • I think it’s great that acting like a cunt online can have consequences.

    It doesn't seem to have deterred you at all...

  • I use Slack for work and I kinda hate it. I can't really explain why. Something about it offends my senses on a subconscious level.

  • I haven't used it in over a decade so I'm not surprised it has new features. Good to know. Thanks for sharing.

  • I think Discord does a lot of things that no one other program can also do. There are certainly better programs out there for voice chat, for text chat, for screen sharing, etc. but none of those programs that do it better can do all the other stuff.

    If Discord dies, you would need like two or three other apps to replace all of the features you've lost.

    For people who only use Discord for voice, it's easy to say "Let's just got back to using TeamSpeak or Ventrillo", but if you also used Discord to stream your games to your friends, you now need to find another alternative for that since TS and Vent don't have that function and likely never will.

    It sucks because I think the Discord app is great for what it does. Yes, it creates information silos when everybody uses it for their support/documentation, but before Discord it was Facebook/Twitter and I didn't use those platforms either. I like that Discord is packed with features and the most basic ones are free to use. Finding an alternative will be tough.

  • Guilded is dead. Their website redirects to a thank-you page of some sort. I remember trying it out ages ago and I thought it was pretty decent competition for Discord and had a lot of the same features, but ultimately it would have been susceptible to the same kind of fuckery that Discord is giving us right now. These private companies only want to extract value out of their users.

  • The key revelation here is that this was after his conviction. They knew what this dude was about and still showed up to a dinner party.

    Musk and Zuck wanted to fuck kids.

  • Most placed with conversation pits that I've seen in person did have a false floor panel to cover it when there was no company over. Turned it back into regular floor space.

  • i mean

    Jump
  • Honestly, this picture is close to accurate if you were trying to input the code for the debug menu in Shadows of The Empire.

  • I've never understood their disdain for liberals. They don't like them because... they're easy to goof on? Because some people, both liberals and conservatives, have no concept of nuance?

    There are absolutely some episodes of South Park where I fundamentally, vehemently disagree with the political statement it's trying to make. I don't know if that is their unique brand of politics seeping into the episode's discourse, but I can hardly expect them to hit the bullseye every time and I'm still able to appreciate the show in general.

  • Oops! All Onions!
