It’s not even limited to the poor, anyone who is not in the ruling class gets fucked over. A lawyer making a few hundred thousand a year is getting fucked over and thinks they are on top. People with money don’t notice that they are getting fucked over because money makes problems go away.

Fuck, that is a good one.

I was going to say it was missing the sleeps every other line.

You are talking like you can get anything out of Google these days. I seriously am using Bing at work. Everyone laugh but do you know who does have their first page full of paid links? This guy.

Not going to lie. I have made it really far using Google sheets as a database until I had to move to a full DB. Google Sheets is just an interface to a Google run DB anyways. A lot of the time I would just load sheets(tables) into data structures from a SQL library and use it like a regular database.

The bills objective is to give journalists compensation for their work. I think Lemmy actually promotes this because people click on the links to try to read the article directly, instead of viewing them through a social media platform acting as a middleman.

There is a prominent movement where people don’t want to see LGBTQA+ people anywhere. They don’t want queer people to exist in their world. It makes them very mad to be exposed to the existence of LGBTQA+ people.
I personally think that they are just some queer people in denial, thinking they are going to catch the gay. Those gay thoughts aren’t going to go away for these people no matter how they cater their reality.

Only someone who is really into mental torture would not use a linter.

It also a great move for getting support from the general population. It makes it hard to villanize the Union when they are being reasonable.

Unity is done for. Nobody is going to start a new project with their product. Devs are risk adverse. Making a game that is original is already a big enough risk for any studio. Why add an infinite amount of risk but building your game on an engine with unstable management. It is even worth retraining people to use a different engine.

I have no idea where people get these unreal expectations from. The game is overall good. With one big ‘but’. The engine is very outdated. If it looks this bad on release, just think about how it will look compared to other games 1 year from now.
It is just awful for a game released in 2023. The character model quality is the same as Fallout 4.

I don’t know if that is a great descriptor for Guelph. Guelph is an answer to the question “what if you took all of the bad parts of Cambridge & Waterloo and make a city with that.” Just gross.

The issue isn’t that “there are a few bad apples” but half of the basket is rotten to the core. Until the police and systems that regulate police are completely overhauled, we the citizens should not trust the police. The number of “bad apples” is too high to allow the citizens to have confidence in law enforcement.
If three people came up to you and told you a slightly different story but you know one of them is lying. With that risk, do you think it is safe to bother to believe any of them? Even worse is that the other two might be going along with the lie to keep their jobs or not be ostracized by their colleges.

I am very annoyed at spaceship controls. Some attempt at realistic momentum is desperately needed in the game. It just feels so wrong. No magical force should apply inertia to a moving object in space.
This is the first mod I want.

That Possible Solutions section is a crock of shit. The real answer is to stop “starving the beast” and fund healthcare. This isn’t real journalism. It’s a propaganda piece.

The ultimate goal is having no downtime. Ballast gives you that result. The cost of downtime far larger than wasting extra space for ballast.

Why are you assuming they agreed to be on the same plane? Nobody is that stupid and naive.

Who knew that severely underfunding healthcare would cause bad healthcare
Now let’s finish the paperwork to create private healthcare companies. Start building some clinics, making sure our friends get all of those sweet government construction contracts. We can even use taxpayer money to fund all of this.

Unfortunately, totalitarian and oppressive governments have the ability to do whatever they want to their citizens. Expats with relatives living in an unfriendly totalitarian nation are vulnerable to state sponsored extortion. Do you want someone that has a high potential to be exploited in a senior government position? This is an example of the least sinister reason why you would fail a security check. For 1 or 2 years after my divorce, I couldn’t get NATO security clearance because people in tenuous financial situations are vulnerable to exploitation. It’s a pretty simple concept. With security clearance any risk means you get denied.

I remember when parties had their platforms in a book that they would make before every election. Now some parties don’t even bother having a platform and win elections. People are voting for representatives that not only don’t care about representing them, but in some cases straight up have comptent for their constituents.
