They got my $40 in 2012. I absolutely loved the Wing Commander series; Wing Commander II was an embarrassingly important part of my adolescense, I love space sims, and still had fond enough memories of the name Chris Roberts that I didn’t think he’d blatantly lie and steal from me.

How people are still giving these clowns money I have no idea.

My father’s middle name is J. Just the letter. His father’s name was JQ, just the letters.

Tinfoil hats on? Alrighty then:

All these Verizon outages are intentional and part of the plan to invalidate the 2024 election.

We’ll see it happen again on and around election day, maybe xitter will go down too.

Whole voting districts in Georgia won’t report in, citing system crashes, security breaches, whatever they feel like making up. Republican Secretaries of State will declare the election compromised before vote counting even starts.

Obviously there’s also a hurricane and massive flooding, hence the tinfoil hat, but let’s not forget where and when we are in history, and that The Business Plot was a real thing.

Isn’t discord just shittier, proprietary IRC? I’m only on it because my Linux distro’s dev uses it for communication for some reason, but from what I can tell, it’s just a locked-down IRC client you can buy emojis and shit on.

Winamp came with an mp3 file labeled winamp.mp3.

If you played it, it was just someone yelling “Winamp: It really whips the llama’s ass.”

But can you still play Drug Wars?

It’s disgusting. When my son was very young, my wife and I struggled to make ends meet, and got behind on his school lunch payments (I still can’t believe that’s even a thing). The lunch lady at his school would lecture him about how much we owed, and how he shouldn’t get to eat for free just because we were lazy or whatever. He’d come home thinking he was in trouble. America hates poor people.

Pirate the fuck out of this game, got it

That is the face of a superstar.

Short for “boondocks,” which just means out in a rural area (or in this case, the far end of the parking lot).

I’m too lazy to look up the etymology though.

Maybe Israel should stop fucking blowing up neighborhoods in Beirut then.

So, a streamer then.

Iowa here, same thing. This state has a very progressive history, but that’s being erased at lightning speed

Well since trans women are women and not men that shouldn’t be a problem.

What a weird thing to worry about. Stop being weird.

Me too, love it

Why would they post it to the dark web? The whole point of terrorism is to be as visible as possible. When terrorist groups claim responsibility for things they want it to show up on every media outlet, not some post on onionztftu478dy4zzs.darksite that nobody will ever see or be able to verify.

They contact news agencies directly for that shit.

Recognizing that sex exists and people engage in it is neither homophobic nor misogynistic, chill the fuck out

My personal opinion, but dissociatives suck. They’re not fun, you’re not going to learn or gain anything from it or grow in any way, you’ll just be unable to move and have extremely unpleasant hallucinations for a few hours.

Did that shit exactly once, thought I was a fucking boat for 3 hours, really wanted to stop being a boat and couldn’t.

You do you, but honestly just get an actual psychedelic. Mushrooms have never let me down.

This is a deeply unpopular take but it’s the correct one. I caucusef for Bernie in both 2016 and 2020 and the amount of Hilary/Biden supporters to Bernie supporters in both respective years was dishearteningly high.

The only people who show up for primaries and caucuses are predominantly white, Christian heterosexuals of retirement age.

They’re absolutely fucking terrified of anything remotely approaching progressive policy and they’ll never, ever let us run anyone who doesn’t make them feel safe with all their old white money.

Yep! I’m on Nvidia, the new drivers are really solid. I’ve read AMD cards run fine as well, but don’t use one
