hi Brazil, I’m Dad!
I make people upset just by using my eyes and brain, as such please be careful to ensure your tears do not get into your electronics, thank you

Yeah, I have a Steam Deck, and it’s literally just a PC in the form factor of a Switch. It has a BIOS menu, you can install Windows on it (but you really shouldn’t), you can install a different flavor of Linux (I recommend Bazzite) – you can even install and play pirated Windows games through Proton, more or less fine, though you have to work for it a bit more.
They developed Proton so that they could get Windows games working on the Deck, and the reason they didn’t make the Deck run Windows is they wanted greater control over the OS than Windows affords. Proton has benefited all gamers on Linux. More recently, they’ve officially partnered with Arch as of a few days ago (which is what SteamOS is built on): https://www.tomshardware.com/software/linux/the-arch-linux-team-is-now-working-directly-with-valve-steamos-and-arch-should-both-benefit-greatly
and just to gush a bit more: the Deck is the only thing I can remember pre-ordering in the last 10 years and being genuinely happy that I did.
I stopped giving conservatives the benefit of the doubt around the point where the Republican party had every chance, every opportunity to go with any other nominee this year, claw back some sense of decorum… and then they chose the Oompa Loompa again. In 2020, at least it made sense for them to hold on to the incumbency advantage, and in 2016, Hillary was a horrible candidate and it’s no wonder she lost.
You know it was free to not post this, right? It would’ve cost you nothing to simply carry on with your day.
And yet here we are.
y’know, whenever people started getting snippy about pronouns, I often said I was just going to start calling them an “it”.
I never thought someone would want that.
If you want a really good 4X game, try Stellaris. It’s where I went after 1000+ hours of Civ 5 (and coming to Civ 6 to be disappointed by it, played only like 80 hours), and I’ve been ̶t̶e̶r̶r̶o̶r̶i̶z̶i̶n̶g̶ liberating the galaxy ever since. I especially like the additional nuances to diplomacy, which are further enhanced by mods – Civ’s AI has always been a bit ham-fisted.
what I’m hearing, here, is that society peaked at the end of the 1990s.
God, wouldn’t that be amazing? Things actually getting done instead of our legislators sitting with their thumb up their asses.
Well, less of them sitting with their thumb up their asses.
oh boy, between this and robinson, it’s getting real dumb real fast
ya love to see it
every time I learn something new about Ohio, I like it just a little bit less, and I already fucking hate Ohio.
Really? After the absolute clownshow that was Starfield, my expectations for TES6 are extremely low.
God, will someone just punch him already?
Wow, you’re a twat.
“make her feel better for 5 minutes by making him feel worse for… however long that scar lasts, oh, and you can’t find a relationship because you suck” has got to be the shittest take I’ve heard all day
SIGTERM: stop that.
SIGKILL: That was not a request.
Case power button: listen here you little shit
This is exactly why he gives me the heebie jeebies. That fuck would sell out his own mother for a Klondike bar.
I know we used to find common ground and reach across the aisle, and I just don’t know how we’ll ever get back there now, to be quite honest. In that way, the American political landscape in the last 50 years has gotten much, much worse.
I’m honestly not sure how much of that you can attribute to foreign powers vs. Ronald Reagan, Donald Trump, and Dick Cheney (off the top of my head – there are many more), but it’s interesting to think about.
I will chip in if someone sets up a GoFundMe to do exactly this
Like, how much could it possibly cost to hire someone in NYC to do this for a few hours some night? Surely this is a crowdfundable amount.
Oh, man, I knew the debate was gonna be funny to watch, and I knew republicans would be shitting themselves after I saw it, but I had no idea just how funny the aftermath would be to watch. “it’s not that Trump lost, it’s that Kamala Harris has occult powers” was not only not on my Bingo card, I didn’t even have a bingo card ready.
I still cannot fucking believe, in all that time onstage, that was the thing that made Biden come alive. Fucking golf.
And then nobody ever made another emulator for Nintendo products again and this definitely does not foreshadow an endless game of whack-a-mole powered by spite.
Surely not.
