Sanctions have not succeeded in lessening support or creating regime change. They are a siege warfare tactic, and a way of inflicting suffering upon the masses of people. There’s plenty of books on the topic, I’d recommend Sanctions as War, edited by Stuart Davis and Immanuel Ness.
The lag of some games will be reproduced faithfully on this, intentionally. It’s functionally an n64 clone that can upscale.
Yeah, tax incentives only work for those making enough money to have taxes to pay that they can get a break on. The rest of us have no way to afford an EV, so they’re relegated to luxury vehicles for virtue signaling upper middle class people. Then they double down and block the cheap EVs from being here, so now that there’s finally hope of having affordable EV transition for the masses, it’s purposefully kept out of reach for us in order to protect the margins of domestic greedy OEMs.
I prefer og psx, personally. I’ve never played the PC version though.
I was driving this weekend, a truck turned onto the road ahead of me, stayed stopped in the right hand lane until I got near to them, then slammed on the gas spewing a massive cloud of filth that entirely enveloped my car. Thankfully my wife and I noticed it beforehand and rolled our windows up.
So what you’re saying is it is genuinely damage reduction to work towards the destruction of the US because Americans are so selfish they will overconsume the planet into massive environmental degradation.
It’s not bad, better than overwatch 2, but that’s but saying much.
I’ve played Devilution X on my Anbernic handheld and it was serviceable enough, I got to like level 17 before I ran out of steam on my rogue.
Second news story I’ve heard today about IWW unionization at places. Glad to hear it. Too many unions are bourgeoisie captured. While the IWW is a bit too syndicalist for my tastes, it was still the only option for me when I was looking for a union. Wish my coworkers had been more willing to unionize our shop, but labor aristocracy so often misses the forest for the trees that I’m not surprised they weren’t.
Mass transit works just fine in rural areas when it’s properly constructed. Busses are about the single worst option for mass transit, and options like high speed rail excel in connecting rural areas to urban and exurban areas with better job opportunities and connecting urbanites to rural areas, both of which bring money to the rural areas.
There’s a lot of games that do very well that don’t fall into your stereotypes.
Sure, CoD sells the best. That doesn’t mean Disco Elysium sucks though, or Citizen Sleeper, or Stardew Valley, or Sekiro, or Psychonauts 2, or Hollow Knight, or any number of great games. Games that were impossible when manufacture was monopolized by Nintendo’s cartel, or when cartridges were required and made games cost $60 in 1995.
Gaming is not immune from dialectics. It too exists in a tension between contradictions. It is both terrible, and wonderful, as it was during the golden age you are highlighting from the past, when games cost far more money and were available to far fewer people. When there was no way for one person (Stardew) or two (Hollow Knight) to be able to make and distribute an entire game without submitting themselves to subservience under a publisher.
The people he’s appointed have exacerbated conflict around the world and brought us to the brink of a world war. He’s incompetent and stuck in an imagined past of American world policing that no one wants anymore.
One chip SNES already have super sharp pixels, this just brings 2 Chip SNES up to the standard set by the one chip models. This won’t make them look sharper than one chip SNES on a CRT, but it will make them look more accurate on them, and it will look better on modern displays also.
I swam naked in the fountain at our towns courthouse as a child, and it was fine. You’re weird and creepy.
There is historical record in the west going back to at least WWII acknowledging that area as Chinese territorial waters. Just because you only follow news cycles while they’re hot, doesn’t mean all of history prior to now stops existing.
Yep that’s the one I saw there I think. Drone goes into a little kiosk and then you pick it up from the claim window thing.
I like Chinas drone delivery model, you can look up videos of it online.
A lot, probably most, of my hours on steam are from before they tracked it. I had 3,000 hours in CS:S and it shows 0 because I stopped playing long ago. Steams been around for a long time, much longer than its ability to track games, so I imagine there’s a lot of people with “unplayed” games that they’ve played, plus people like you that don’t show their hours for whatever reason.
There’s news articles claiming MLK was secretly funded by the USSR to bring disorder to the US, and it was considered credible at that time by the majority of the white population. The point isn’t people’s reactions, when the civil rights act passed the majority of America thought MLK was a terrible person harming America. The point is to create enough disruption that the people with the power to do so are forced to take action or risk outright collapse of the social order.
Are people in Ukrainian controlled territories free to protest against forced conscription and withdrawal of passports? No, they will get put into prison, and given a choice to join the military or serve a long sentence.
