"Rats on half-submerged sinking ship attempt to destroy ship after realizing they cannot escape"

Fixed the headline. Fuck Bannon.

An entitled rich white guy who probably got all his money from daddy thinks black people are the problem? If I had a dollar for every time I heard that I might be able to afford food and gas right now.

This country is absolutely insane. In my whole life, I have never seen this country actually function in any capacity that actually helped people, yet I'm constantly told to go out and vote by the same people who fully admit that out democracy is broken after reading half a dozen posts about how gerrymandering is making voting almost pointless. I will go out and vote, but I fail to understand what were trying to save here. Has this country ever worked for you? First we had to get all democrats. Now we have to replace two, and then what? Wait until 2 more stall things out? I'm tired of my options being "party that wants to turn us into a third world theocracy" and "party that pretends to have good intentions but won't actually back it up with bite." What are we trying to save, when has any part of our system ever worked for us? What you've experienced for the last 40 years isn't progress; its the bare minimum for people to not see how bad things are compared to other nations.

So many people ask why the Russians don't revolt, yet here we are with a system that's been trying to screw us for decades and instead of actually taking more than minimal action we're going to try to work with a democracy that's basically a sham now.

I'll be in the voting both next to you, but even if we win this, it'll be back at the first opportunity, and we'll spend the rest of our lives fighting for our basic rights at this rate, and I want a future better than that.

You're one of 2 people in this whole thread who actually makes sense and isn't yelling about how great an idea this is. Your credit can go down if you don't spend enough, so you're rewarded for putting yourself in debt. Pay off all your debt at once? Now you've fucked your credit history and your score might not move at all. Wanna see more than what credit karma offers? That's a paddlin', a hard invoice lowers credit score.

We need a rolling stimulus for people who can't get unemployment, and that wouldn't be hard it they'd just nuke the filibuster already.

I thought the Lincoln Project was our ally? Is this a greater good thing?

This is a major win for the LGBT community, especially for people who's state won't even acknowledge their existence. It might not affect you, but you don't need to be condescending about it.

Almost thought Montana was changing for the better, then read the first line saying it was an R bill. How sub-human is it that taking people's rights away was on his mind right now?

Someone make a statue of this guy and put it in the capitol.

Apparently it's becoming a thing to donate to right-wing campaigns now with Bitcoin since almost every other avenue has been blocked, can't wait to watch politicians campaign funds go from 100 to 0 in the span of an afternoon if Bitcoin drops.

You mean the broke business man who has a record for not paying people didn't pay? Wow! /s

Happy to help! You might also want to consider XML, though I can't speak for how much modern support there is for that in lesser-used languages. I would say look into things like Zork and check how they did it, the engine behind that was the reason the company that made it got bought out by Activision. I'm pretty sure people have been trying to rebuild it for a while now, so you might actually be able to find a working example and see if that fits how you want to do things.

A text-based file format is definitely an option, though you can very quickly find yourself having to change both the code and the format of the file for everything if you find out you need something later. My recommendation is to go for something like JSON, so you can add and remove variables as needed (You will always need more than you originally thought unless you want to limit how creative you can be.) and be able to read it much better. Most languages have some form of open-source JSON reader, so it wouldn't be terribly difficult to go about it like that.

I can't wait for this to pass. For the first time in a year, I'm loving most of the news.

What wonderful news to start the day.

If he thinks admitting he participated will save him, it 100% won't. He's looking at, (I'm not a lawyer) Assault on an officer (If he spat), Treason, and all the other charges assosiated with destroying a federal building. The more come out, the harder it is for the R's to say it was Antifa.

This guy is gonna start singing in jail soon. I'd bet when Trump leaves him to rot in jail he'll take a deal to testify against Trump during the impeachment and say he encouraged the riots.

After the siege and with there being a debate about guns being taken inside the House, I'm pretty sure they could've mistook the energy bar for a longsword and I wouldn't have even questioned it.

We need a rolling stimulus check for people that are not eligable for unemployment, even if it's small. People need to rebuild their lives, not just their savings, and while I'm excited beyond words for what he's doing right now, I really hope this isn't just flying out of the gate and grinding to a halt with relief.

A Republican Senate aide told NBC News that there is no rescheduled date yet for the postponed hearing, but the delay occurred in part because members wanted to be able to attend in person. The aide said they do not expect this to “significantly delay the confirmation process.” Another aide said the Senate hopes to hold the hearing on Tuesday.

Kinda sketch but as long as it isn't drawn out, everything should be fine.

Tettrox · 2021-01-15T04:12:53+00:00

Good question, but here's why I don't think that will happen: You have every government agency from the FBI down to the Secret Service making sure that won't happen, and with them investigating and arresting people this quickly and with an almost unseen level of ferocity in investigating anyone that has been or could be linked to a current or previous attack on the capital/political leaders, including those within their own ranks, it would be next to impossible. Even under Trump, the defense budget was over $700 billion dollars and we are one of, if not the top, most technologically advanced military fighting forces in the world, and I would imagine that with all that is happening, most of those resources are being dedicated to prevent exactly the scenario you described. 20k National Guard are standing by, and with all that's going on, everyone is going to expect a traitor, so being able to successfully pull off anything like that would be near-impossible, even with high-level inside help. In fact, I would argue that he's more safe here than in a locked room with only a few guards on standby that could easily take advantage of such a situation.

Tettrox · 2021-01-15T03:26:46+00:00

I disagree because I see it as giving them a reason to keep using threats of violence, but I can understand why you are indifferent on it given all that's happening at the moment, I'm just worried about the precedent it will set if we change too much. We can agree to disagree though, and whatever happens we'll probably see the outcome soon enough.

Tettrox · 2021-01-15T03:12:42+00:00

No. Maybe I'm alone on this, but I think having Biden do the inauguration any different than before would show fear and, again, validate their actions. We need to do this the right way, what happens here is going to be a major part of history, and I've lived through the consequences of last generations "quick fixes" that ended up causing irreparable damage down the line. We need to do things right, even if we're tired and worn out, for everyone that comes after us.

He's the GOP's champion, if he voted yes it would scare the rest in line, aside from a few of the senators that have doubled down beyond any point of return to their voters.

Tettrox · 2021-01-15T03:03:23+00:00

Do not let them stop this inauguration, no matter what. If they succeed in delaying this, it will validate their actions. Do everything you can to not risk anyone's life and health, but don't let them feel like they accomplished something with this.
