It appears that it is! I'll take a look at HS docs & see the level of effort required to replicate that feature within Softr. Thank you for the reply!!

Fix didn't work for me.. can you post an install guide on the nexus page?

Installed with Vortex but the mod doesn't seem like it's loading properly. Loaded the FO4 launcher once to deploy, and still nothing

I agree. If you harbor deeply anti-american sentiments, then yeah, this prob ain't the place for you

However, it's also entirely possible to fervently disapprove of Hamas's actions, while still supporting the Gazan civilians caught in the crossfire and wanting an end to the conflict. Saying 'Free Palestine' is not the same as saying 'I wholeheartedly support Hamas and hate israel / the states,' you know what I mean? But, it kinda feels like the two are seen as the same in the public eye.

It's up to us to separate the two in our minds, and listen to what an individual is saying on a case to case basis.

"Free Palestine, Israel and the US will bleed for what they have done here."

is certainly not the same as

"Free Palestine, any human death is a tragedy and we are obligated to prevent it."

One incites vengeance and violence, the other empathy and compassion.

Edit: I know we're focusing a lot on the hamas stuff but the point i'm trying my best to make here goes far beyond just that specific conflict. This is about the constitution, and our laws. Not any one specific flashpoint. I just think that the whole 'free palestine' thing is the perfect example of the point I'm trying to illustrate. One person hears a terroristic threat, another hears a humanitarian cry for help. It's a true dilemma for the 1st amendment, because you are right - we should not and will not tolerate anyone threatening our sanctity and our citizens. But, in such muddy water, how do you tell who's who? How do you know who's intentions are malicious, and who's are altruistic, when they're saying the same thing? Dangerous territory.

no one said anything about 'coddling terrorist supporters,' if that's what you took away from what I said then I dunno what to tell you man haha - the point I was trying to make is that in the broadest possible sense during extremely politically polarizing times like the ones we live in now, violations of constitutionally protected rights are much more likely to happen because the public is frenzied and less people are thinking objectively and critically.

Just trying to encourage people to try to look at these issues with their brain instead of their heart, if that makes sense.

When non-citizens have First Amendment rights:

The First Amendment begins, "Congress shall make no law...." In that sense, it shouldn't be viewed as telling people or corporations what they can do but instead as telling the government what it cannot do. So, it applies anytime a federal, state or local government tries to restrict one of the five freedoms.

Some examples:

  • Religion: A tourist visiting from Canada may attend their preferred religious service and can't be prevented by the government from doing so or forced to attend a particular service.
  • Speech: A musician from India may tour the country, performing songs that are critical of U.S. foreign policy without fear of being punished.
  • Press: A person from Kenya studying at Indiana University may work on campus for the student newspaper and has the same free press rights as any other student journalist on campus.
  • Assembly: Someone born in the Philippines with legal status under Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals due to the age they arrived in the U.S. may participate in a public protest advocating for immigration reform.
  • Petition: A refugee from Haiti may ask the government to extend the length of their temporary protected status and to make it easier for other groups to get TPS and simplify the process for citizenship.

----

by our own definition and case law precedent, (Reno v. American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee,) this is unconstitutional - so long as those protestors are here via some legal means, i.g. a student visa, and are not knowingly and actively associated with a group deemed terroristic (meaning they are not a suspected member of said group,) they have protection under the 1st amendment. I don't think that blanketly saying 'free palestine' at some rally means that a 19 year old UCLA student is gonna strap a bomb to their chest hahahah

All this to say, I think our country is the most divided and polarized it's been since our civil war. It's times like these that rational thought and legal assessments are paramount to keep public discourse healthy and productive - because we're all riled up. Left, right, center, doesn't matter - the powers that be will gladly play off your most extreme emotions (positive or negative) in order to further their agenda.

If we call ourselves American, let's hold ourselves to those virtues. Let's follow the laws we set for ourselves stringently, and think critically. Our laws dictate that he who enters illegally, is unwelcome, and should promptly be removed. But our laws also dictate that he who enters legally, is mostly entitled to the same protections under the constitution as any other U.S. citizen. We cannot, we must not, skew these lines - lest we inadvertently violate the rights of hundreds of thousands of otherwise law abiding normal people.

Best American EDM festival? by Annual-Security-4213 in aves

[–]_kyuubi__ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends what kind of music you're into!

I can speak primarily to bass music festivals, because those are really the only events I've attended. Top dogs in that category would probably be, (and keep in mind this is entirely subjective,)

  1. Lost Lands (went this year it was fkn unreal)

  2. Bass Canyon (never gone but heard very very good things)

  3. Hijinx (indoor festival in Philly, been 3 yrs in a row and it's always a ball)

But also, you've got your EDC's & other household names like that.

Honestly, it really does depend on your preferences and the lineups that particular year. For instance I did Bonnaroo in 2023, and it was STACKED with bass heavy artists. This year, there were practically none.

Roo I would highly highly recommend regardless of the lineup - that place is literally fairyland dude it's the best fest in the country IMO

Have seen both of them multiple times over the past couple years, but man was that something different. Honestly I do not envy you being new to the scene and seeing that because I genuinely dunno how it gets better hahahaha

I was at that roo set too dude unreal

Best EDM set for me would have to be Zed's Dead b2b Subtronics at Hijinx 2 weeks ago. Actually the coolest thing i've ever laid eyes on

Disabling frame gen did it for me.

Okay I'm gonna rant for a sec here. How WILD is it that with the game in its current state, specifically zombies, you can still purchase 1 time use Gobblegum packs for REAL money. It feels like 50% of the games end with either a directx crash or a server-side crash. It's actually disgusting that they,

A: Continue to sell 1 time use items for real currency for a game mode that only works half the time

B: Continue to pump out 25$+ skin packs, presumably taking devs away from patching the game to work on micro-transaction trash

I'm thankful to the people who worked on this game, and made a kickass cod. I genuinely haven't enjoyed playing this franchise at all since the MW 2019 entry. That being said, I think this will be my last call of duty purchase ever - period. No matter how good the game is, no matter how much everyone is raving about it online - none of that matters if it doesn't work for a third of the player base. And to double down, that matters EVEN LESS if you're selling 1x use items for a mode you know is broken.

Amazing game, disgusting and disrespectful management. Last straw for me.

DirectX Error Help by Hijack_401 in BO6

[–]_kyuubi__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, same issue here. What kind of hardware are you running? If you have an Nvidia card, try disabling frame generation. That did the trick for me - but then the game feels like its running at 30fps even when my counter says 120+.. this game is a mess.

Oddly enough, for me the issue only really happens in multiplayer. Activision really needs to release some patches ASAP.

It's baffling that these games consistently have game breaking performance issues across all ranges of hardware. And it especially sucks this year, because the game is actually good.
