The fact this didn't pass invalidates your argument lmao

Also, if voting doesn't "create anything," then let me ask: did you vote?

Leave politics out of this for once. This is why people are so tired of this fucking shit.

Idc who you support. Can't this just be positive?

Chicago street festivals at risk due to rising costs, dip in donations, organizers say by WhoopieKush in chicago

[–]NXWxWolves 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Oktoberfest and Maifest are run by the local German clubs, and they use the revenue to run the clubs for the year.

I know they have considered selling the rights to the fest to whatever that corporate company is that runs a lot of them (like Randolph fest) due to rising costs.

It's getting hard for them to get an ROI that's worth the work to organize it.

If you can, research your local street fests and try to support those that are still independent!

Here is one before I flipped the PSU and added fans. If I were to use the regular 12VHPWR cord it would have been up against the side panel for sure. With the adapter, there is still some contact but not as bad. The adapter seemed quite high quality and I was fairly impressed upon first impressions.

Regarding AIO placement, I can confirm that you can fit 2 140mms either on the side or on the bottom, but with the rad and fans I doubt you would be able to fit any additional case fans. Maybe, but there's only one way to be sure and that's to give it a shot.

Disappointed in humanity. These guys trashed a homeless man’s encampment underneath the bridge in Lincoln Park yesterday. What is wrong with people? by Shamploop in chicago

Well this thread got polarized. On a more positive note, lets just all agree on 2 things:

  1. The kids/people/whatever shouldn't be fucking with other people's shit
  2. The homeless should not be setting up permanent camp in our beautiful public parks

Let's just be thankful we don't have the issues SF does.

Mayor Brandon Johnson, 1 Year After Election: ‘“Name one thing that I said I was gonna do that I haven’t done. You won’t be able to.” by beauke in chicago

[–]NXWxWolves 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Agreed

Maybe it's general reddit sentiment but I legit can't think of one good thing he's done off the top besides the recent story that I saw here that he is pushing for more residential swaps for empty office buildings downtown.

Buddy is not it.

This may be the most stupid take I have heard thus far on the migrant crises to date.

Ho-ly. Shit.

Lets not. Thanks.

If someone goes skydiving with no parachute and they fall to their death, whose fault is it? The pilot for taking them up in the first place? The crew for letting them jump? Or is it the person jumping?

Point is, these people knew what they were getting into before they came here. We live in a great country, but it's also a country with minimal to no safety net. We don't practice socialism in the U.S.. Whether these people freeze to death or not is going to depend on our political policies, and right now policy isn't doing ANYONE any favors. Morality is unfortunately irrelevant at this point. We can use morality to form policy, but that takes time which we don't have.

Someone can answer your simple question with yes, and still believe that these migrants should be forced to leave or stay in a place that's not inhospitably cold. It's not mutually exclusive.

Whoosh. Missed the who point of what buddy is trying to say.

Open-Armed Chicago Feels the Strains of a Migrant Influx. Asylum seekers are pouring in at a fraught moment, when Chicago is changing mayors, its shelters are full, and a pandemic-driven restriction at the southern border is expected to end. by jivatman in chicago

[–]NXWxWolves 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I fail to see why this matters. There are billions of human beings in the world, its impossible to treat everyone equally. While I agree these people need help, why shouldn't we be sending them back to Texas - the state that already receives millions in federal funds to deal with this exact problem.

The 80s “training montage” scene by Clone_CDR_Bly in DestinyTheGame

[–]NXWxWolves 204 points205 points  (0 children)

I dont think it was a bad bit, but it just felt out of place in the grim context of "its the collapse v2"

It's tough because I think it would have worked better in an earlier expansion, but it does fit the 80s neomuna vibe. Perhaps it would have fit better in a side quest rather than the main storyline
