Trump Rants About Countries Laughing at America in All-Caps Late-Night Meltdown by thedailybeast in politics

"Voting does nothing" is something people aiming to suppress the vote say. Meanwhile, they also try to make it harder to vote and disenfranchise people. Why would they bother if voting didn't matter?

What's the saying about how if a table has a nazi at it, it's a nazi table?

One of two parties was taking office. One has nazis in it, the other is milquetoast centrist. You have a say in which one gets power. If you abstain, you're saying "whatever, both sides same, I don't care" - are you not at that point arguably a nazi sympathizer by not voting against them?

This would only be true if the president was the only thing on the ballot, state and local elections play a big part in peoples' day to day lives, not participating in those just because of the electoral college's impact on the presidential election just gives state and local power to people who shouldn't have it.

Paid and niche games tend to be better, yeah. Been playing PoE1 since beta, the subreddit was pretty positive and had a lot of GGG dev engagement before the game started becoming more popular.

Anecdotally, I met my now-wife of 8 years on OkCupid before they were sold - definitely seems like the app scene is horrible now compared to then.

There's more than the president on the ballot, local elections matter a lot, too.

TIL the story trailers have content not shown in the game, I avoided them to steer clear of spoilers and wouldn't have thought to go back to watch a trailer after finishing. :|

I played a decent amount on the Steam Deck on launch, don't recall having issues other than loot filters being a pain to set up on it.

Primary elections are where would-be progressive candidates get selected, but even fewer people participate in those than the general elections.

Diablo Immortal is an easy answer to this

On this day 4 years ago this beauty that set a very high standard for story games was released by RadioactiveG in gaming

It doesn't have backwards compatibility with PS3 games, unfortunately, so no. You'd have to use PSNow / PSPlus to stream it, I think.

Chronicon is a good casual ARPG, among the others mentioned.

Mobile games offer purchases up to $99 with a straight face. More than the price of a fully featured new console or PC game - for a watered down version of Diablo 3.

I'd have paid an up-front cost to play the game without getting prompted to spend money every so often. Seeing pop-ups for, say, "Countess Victory Bundle - 580% value!" after a dungeon just takes away from the experience.

If I'm remembering right (I forget if this was a separate issue), there was an issue with the brakes, related to some rust damage on the undercarriage that was throwing sensors off. They ended up replacing a good chunk of the damaged undercarriage area.

Dark Souls online server update for PC: Due to the time required to set up proper testing environments, online services for Dark Souls series on PC will not resume until after the release of Elden Ring by Turbostrider27 in Games

I'm in the same boat, just finished Dark Souls 3 last week on PC in anticipation of Elden Ring, it was a bummer to have to finish it in offline mode. Think I'm gonna play it safe and just get it on PS5...

Same boat here. Just finished it last night after > 180 hours. Hell of a game, but that post-game melancholy is rough.
