  • You can disable them, but also I'm pretty sure the default behavior is just to fill extra space if you have less than 8 pinned shortcuts. Your single shortcut is why there are so many ads.

  • Yes. I'm pretty sure you can disable sponsored suggestions in the options, or you can also just delete the individual sponsored options. I've not seen one of these in the last 4 years.

  • To be fair "terrorism" is always a euphemism for "enemies of the state". The vast majority of actual terrorism on civilian populations in the last century has been perpetrated by state actors, and the majority of that by the US.

  • Because the entire US political spectrum fits nearly inside of "neoliberalism". Liberalism in general is just capitalism+.

  • They use male pronouns and refer to one by a male name, do you know what names they prefer?

    If you found someone attractive, would you date them if you found out they were trans?

    Jump

  • Having been in this position, sure, but I've also had to end relationships because the person transitioned in a direction I wasn't attracted to. Communicating honestly and openly is the key, as it is for pretty much everything about interpersonal relationships.

  • Let us work for the needs of all rather than the profit of few.

  • IMO this is giving too much credit to the bad faith argument. Anyone saying "oh you lazy socialist you just don't want to work" is either incredibly ignorant, or more likely deliberately trolling.

  • What do you think about the fact that Google Pixel phones are being confiscated in Spain if they have GrapheneOS installed?

  • Well of course!

  • Well anecdotally many of us have the opposite experience so I guess sucks to be you?

  • You really think people who reject science are gonna save you from fascism?

  • Right, the problem with the white moderates was their focus on class struggle...

  • What's a popular game series that you just can't understand the hype for?

    Jump

  • A) that's not a criticism... Every game in any defined genre is "just another x".

    B) I still think HK is superlative among its peers in many ways.

    C) Ori is fine but is a lot more one-note than many games in the genre. The story is very derivative and the main interesting gameplay element is the mechanical way the jump works. The second game I really disliked, but the first one is unobjectionable.

  • Oh okay yeah on big hits there is a bit of hitstop.

  • Yeah the "for console" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

  • Mmm, there is a bit of knockback. There's a trinket you can equip that basically eliminates that, but learning to deal with it is just part of the combat flow.

    Jump

  • Hand-drawn animation, creative world and character designs, charming voice acting, abilities that are fun to use and combo in interesting ways, boss fights that are challenging but fair, a world that's much bigger and stranger than it first appears, satisfying endings, a bunch of free DLC... Yeah you've got a point I can't see why people like it either.

  • The Bioshock games are the most popular and least good of their spiritual franchise. Prey (2017) and System Shock 1 and 2 are all fantastic games. For story SS1 is my favorite, while Prey has the most developed gameplay (perhaps obviously given the release date). I still haven't played more than a couple hours of SS2, but it's a classic on the level of Deus Ex.

    SS1 also has the distinction of being possibly the most influential game ever made. It's bonkers how many systems and ideas it was the first to explore or use. A very faithful remake came out recently, with one for SS2 under development.
