And then she came back and made a point to address what she wanted anyways (it was about taking peoples guns). She just did it without being a raging lunatic screaming loud enough to be heard in OTHER mics lol

I’m stoked about Deadlock. I used to play Super Monday Night Combat constantly, until it shut down.

I’ve been waiting like 10 years to get a decent game that fills that void, and Deadlock seems to finally be it! I personally couldn’t be happier with their choice hah.

Are you running the 8.1 beta? I am and just tried and got the Apple Cash answer.

Curious to know what the diff is haha.

I feel like this is just the state of America now. When everyone was freaking out that this was the downfall of the election yadda yadda… I was just thinking to myself “this is the country where kids get slaughtered in school and we’re sad for like 2 days… I give this a week at most”

I remember a long time ago when I was considering using Waze, had heard really good things. Then I was driving with a friend who used it and it served an ad saying “click here to take a pit stop at McDonald!”

I never downloaded Waze so… good luck google.

I know that’s what all our Lemmy lawyers are saying. But I’m pretty confident SCOTUS would find a way for rules to apply to Biden that weirdly wouldn’t apply to Trump.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see him try. I’m just saying if I was in his spot, I wouldn’t immediately jump in assuming everything will just be “that easy”.

You should at least sleep on it once or twice before you do something as drastic as everyone wants.

I’m not saying they were wrong, but effectively making the first king of the USA doesn’t seem like something one should risk the outcome of, no matter how strong your assumption is.

Except that we know for a fact the refs are incredibly biased against specifically one team.

I wish he would use it, but I understand the hesitance to do so. Why would they do this BEFORE Trump is back in and even give Biden the option to use it? Why risk giving Biden a 4 year larger window to use it if he does win? Feels like a trap to me.

I have a lot of trouble considering anything from polls/surveys being accurate, considering in my 30 years, I’ve never been asked for my input on one.

Who are they asking? (No way it’s a curated group who’s likely to answer in a specific way to create drama in the media right?)

This line of thought always amuses me. “It’s democrats faults for not stopping republicans from being horrible people”

Oooooorrrrr maybe it’s republicans fault… for being horrible people?

“It’s the fire departments fault my house burned down, not the guy who lit it on fire.”

So I’m a die hard apple boi as well, but I’ve been getting into Linux a bit lately (to replace my windows machine that was solely for gaming)

I think the main reason I still stick with Apple over Linux for most things is that Linux requires more tinkering.

Every time I wanna play a new game I need to try out different versions of protons until it works. When I need a new software, I have to go google if I CAN have it, how to get it, or to find out what exact version I should use for my distribution, etc.

Linux, as impressed with it as I am so far, is like having an old classic car I’m fixing up. It’s a hobby. I need to dedicate time to learning, maintaining, and optimizing my experience. So it’s great for my hobby of gaming!

My Mac just works when I need it to work, no tinkering, no second thoughts. It’s the boring but reliable modern car I take on long trips. I just use computer, get work done, without roadblocks I have to google derailing me every 10 mins.

I’m all for Linux, I’ve very much enjoyed it so far and will continue learning, but as a “normie” using Linux, the simplicity of Mac is often missed.

Yeah it’s not the choice for your daily driver. Def an enthusiast segment of cars haha.

You can also use Steam itself to run external launchers via proton! Might not be the best way, but it was super easy for a noob like me to figure out.

Let’s me play ffxiv (non steam) and bnet games quite easily!

A shame. Because stylistically I really like Maserati. Guess one day I’ll just buy a lightly used largely depreciated one lol

As someone who worked for Activision, in QA, on major CoD titles, I guarantee you that wasn’t QAs fault.

I can’t even count the amount of bugs my team found, documented, and raised a hell of a stink about, that still went live.

Major bugs like that in live are not due to QA missing them. It’s due to the rediculous pace ATVI makes the team put out content. Doesn’t matter if QA reports something, if the devs are not given the time needed to fix it.

GOTTA GET THAT NEW BATTLEPASS OUT!!!

I worked for two triple A studios and we have had both our dev kits and high end PCs at home. There are so many tools to encrypt, secure, remote access, manage, etc, that it’s no problem at all. And most are tools these companies are using anyways, in office.

Both companies actually got MORE productive with work from home. My old company is forcing people back to office, but my new one isn’t. I wonder if it has anything to do with that big office building they just bought…

It’s called having a conversation…… someone says something. Someone else asks a question to stoke the conversation….

And like. Context as well. yes it is a diff conversation if they worked 45 years min wage vs 45 years as a mega corp ceo lol. It def is a valid question for someone to understand the conversation that’s happening.

No ones being hostile by trying to get context to continue the conversation that was totally friendly until they got butthurt for some weird reason.

I think they mean the average person isn’t going to take the time to check 20 different contacts apps in the store to find the perfect one, then do it again with every other basic app on their phone.

They’re just gonna use the default app 99%

My dads iPhone 8 is finally starting to lose some of its battery life. But it’s overall performance is totally fine.

I think a lot of people forget that most humans doesn’t need 100000000000gb of ram and 20trillion gbs of storage.

I’m using 65gb of storage, including the os… on my baseline 128gb model.

Most people aren’t editing 8k videos on their iPhones lol. They’re sending a text message.

Which is called “having sway” haha. They have a big audience. Doesn’t matter how you feel about said audience. They’re there.
