    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Also, Trump doesn't want to leave the US because all his stuff is here. Millions and millions of dollars worth of it, even.

    It honestly is amazing in hindsight that his cars don't just spontaneously explode in the driveway.

    Also, betcha anything that if and when he switches over to the new domain, he doesn't bother with forwarding so all existing links or embeds that point to twitter.com break instantly and permanently. As a person who occasionally tries following links to old news articles or webcomics that have...

    That's what I thought it was too, and thought it was one of those troll satire accounts, and that his own campaign was dumb enough to either think it was real or find it flattering.

    You know what? Maybe he just misses web portals. And/or Zombocom.

    The US Supreme Court and its decisions

    I wonder how far they'l take this. Like, what happens if the fighting continues so long that there's still not an approved map by next year's election? No doubt the state will try to run its elections as if their bogus map were legit, so then what? I assume it's the job of the current Congress...

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    And what do Jews and the Chinese have in common? That's right, eating Chinese food. Clearly, a diet rich in MSG grants immunity to COVID, and all the fearmongering about it has secretly been a plot to keep the other races vulnerable. In this essay, I will

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    Not just labor laws; there's a word for not letting your workers leave their job, and we literally fought a war over it.

    Remember how Iraq didn't turn into a quagmire until after Hussein had been captured and executed and suddenly there were all these leaderless gangs of insurgents making it impossible to drive ten feet without getting blown up? Yeah, maybe it's better if we let them start a civil war while they...

    No, his base won't let his death stop them, and if anything it'll just cement his status as a messianic figure. Even if his death was entirely from messianic causes. After all, that's the difference between a mere cult and a religion, whether the founder is still alive.

    Activision-Blizzard Thread: Just announced the Layoffs of 1900 jobs.

    Color me surprised that Infinite even has a single-player campaign because I thought it was meant to be the franchise's shift into always-online live-service territory. Or is it like Splatoon and modern Call of Duty where the campaign only exists so they can continue to legally sell physical...

    Could the UK singlehandedly block this? Would Microsoft have to choose between calling off the deal and divesting of their entire UK division or something?

    Hanlon's razor be damned, I have a hard time believing the entire FTC is this incompetent. Betcha my life that enough money to talk changed hands under the table at some point. If not with the FTC themselves, then with whoever's responsible for appointing the people in charge of it.

    Yes, it's literally in the very Constitution. For some reason I thought it was in the 9th or 10th amendment but it turns out it's even older—Article IV, Section 1: Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State. And...

    SpaceX only exists because NASA gave up on actually caring about the thing it was created for; if we can't rely on government programs to get us into space, I prefer to call that a failure on the part of humanity and the US in particular and don't give them a chance to get around it by farming...

    So I am making a video game.....

    I'm curious what you're doing gameplay-wise to differentiate the 8- and 16-bit sections. Generally speaking, the games on offer tended to be pretty similar. Even The Messenger, which has you "time travel into the distant future" and indicates it by switching from faux-NES to faux-Genesis...

    The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    I just remembered, the triggers were also dual-action like the Steam Controller. They really were ahead of their time with that one, although I don't know if any games used the "Squeeze to toggle precise aiming mode, click to fire" that Valve liked to promote as a possible use of them.
