No, it's a pretty recent thing from what I can tell. The big social-justice movement didn't even get started until around 2012, and for a while it seemed like they were a united front of anti-capitalism and anti-bigotry. The first I noticed signs of infighting was that left-coast city where...

Unfortunately there's also a big issue with attempting to court the progressive left now: it's been split into the death-to-capitalism crowd and the death-to-the-white-hegemony crowd, each of whom are now convinced that the other is a tool of the right.

Well hey, maybe they won't have to kick us out, then.

Just so you know, Steam does have the option of disabling its DRM when publishing a game. It's not publicly visible which ones did and which ones didn't, and I doubt anyone even cares which ones are which (including the Steam fanboys who love to drop in and well-actually anyone who complains...

NATO needs to kick us out starting yesterday.

So, funny thing about that verse he's invoking. "The rod of correction" is extremely vague language, and there's a very good chance it was a metaphor referring to measuring sticks. Back in Bible times and for quite a long time afterward, it was common for people in charge of things to own rods...

At this point, the only logical explanation for why the files haven't been found and leaked by some agent of chaos, if nothing else, is that they've done such a thorough job ensuring that only people who are willing to help them with the coverup are allowed anywhere within the halls of...

Remember, folks: Only suckers "buy" things from DRM-locked services in the first place.

At this point I can't even imagine wanting to get one used, no matter how low the prices drop. Not because of the stigma—that's easily remedied by painting it yellow—but because it'd be impossible to maintain without continuing to give the company your money. Even if you were to hack it to stop...

That article got me to re-read the text of the tweet, and... somehow the bit about Italians makes even less sense. He's not bashing them; he's accusing the trans community of hating them.

How many papers are part of this particular one? I feel like this would be unconscionable even if it were literally just the Washington Post that's doing this.

So, we're asking them to turn themselves in so they can be locked up, with the threat of being caught and locked up if they don't. This man really just has no clue how to accomplish things, does he?

On a related note, I keep forgetting to ask... that database that was left open to anyone to write to, how long did it take for someone to just inject a DROP TABLE and wipe the whole thing out?

This might interest y'all. The guys at Fight for the Future, whose emails I've been subscribed to ever since the SOPA protests back in 2009 or so despite not really doing a whole lot besides beg for money, just sent me a link to this thing they set up, which they claim will let you send a...

I finally installed a shader pack for Minecraft yesterday, as part of my ongoing effort to get the most out of my new PC. Unfortunately Iris, the mod it runs on, causes the game to hang every couple seconds in fullscreen mode now, but for some reason it's fine if I just maximize the window, so I...

I'd arrange it anyway just to see how they both react, but I might be a terrible person.

I'm getting flashbacks to 2009(?) when a whole bunch of websites went black for a day in protest of SOPA. And even that didn't feel this widespread; I remember getting very pissy on social media about Google not even acknowledging it.

So what anti-fascist organization are you planning on donating your blood money to?

Because they're listening to Trump and not you, Mr. Leech. Like, in both cases we have an audience being told "Can you believe how transparently stupid and evil these people are?" and going "Yes actually because we've believed they're that transparently evil for years now," and the only...

I guess you haven't been lurking this subforum for very long; that's exactly what a lot of us want.
