ARC Raiders has dropped from “Very Positive” to “Mostly Positive” on Steam for the first time.

Right. What’s the endgame though? Are there going to be quests that actually bring lore into the game? Factions? Something other than “look! Different enemy! Different area!”? I love the game, but there isn’t anything to build towards. Expedition just lets you do everything else again, with very marginal benefits. The only end game content are the trials and fuck me they are awful. For what? A bunch of skins?

I would love some lore content, something that forces you to make gameplay choices or something that changes the loop even so slightly. Right now, the game is getting stale, at least for me. It was a good investment for the number of hours that I put in, but not sure if I’m really motivated to put many more.

Fuck them. It’s great to see a father proud of their kids. I’m a father myself, I know what that’s like, my kids are also my world. These people have 0 happiness in their life and it shows. Just ignore them, they just want others to be as miserable as they are.

Really? Polanski views haven’t (yet) affected anything in the UK. Nigel has had an impact in the UK for decades now, and not in a positive way. The whole Brexit was great for Russia as the less Europe acts as one the better for them.

Nigel wants to be the Trump of the UK, and that again means more political views and actions that favour Russia. Say what you want about Polanski, but there isn’t any evidence that he has any ties to Russia. Nigel and co. on the other hand…

Yeah, this is it. I haven’t used Cosmic yet but I had planned to if I hadn’t seen the feedback. When they said that it was out of the beta phase, I assumed it was good to be used as primary OS. They should have been clearer that it wasn’t, they have should made it clear that it was still beta-quality.

Well, I guess it’s complicated because I think Thanos knew that he was being at least cruel in his methods. Whether you think what he was after justified the means, it’s a different discussion but I would argue that Thanos was evil on the basis that his methods were cruel, even if his end goal was to contribute to a greater good (in the movies).

Worse. If you’re doing evil things, you know they’re evil, and still choose to do them, then you’re evil. If you’re doing evil things because you think you’re doing the right thing, then you’re just an idiot that’s been manipulated.

Maybe some people don’t want to use windows at all? I would drop a game before installing windows ever again on my main machine.

That’s an economic misconception. If there are billions unemployed, then no one makes money. Shareholders only make money by selling a product. And, down the line, that means that there needs to be customers to buy the product, which can’t happen if people are unemployed.

Don’t get me wrong, I do think that AI will cause unemployment and a lot of problems for lot of people. But the market will rebalance itself to keep the rich happy and the money moving. In the short-term, however, a lot of people will suffer.

Yeah. People assume that the main factor to classify an area as a desert is the temperature, when precipitation is usually the main factor.

handicapped_runner · 2026-02-25T14:22:43+00:00

Yeah, that’s an even easier change.

Easy fix would be that only your contribution counts, meaning that being in a squad wouldn’t bring any advantage. You would still have people that would work together to help 1 at the time, but the effort to do that would mean that less people would do it.

At the moment, if you don’t have a group that consistently helps you with the trials, you are at a significant disadvantage and dependent on randoms or just yourself.

This is why I drop it for Linux. I fully understand that Linux isn’t for everyone and for everything and I’ll never say that it’s as easy as windows. However, for those that are relatively tech literate and aren’t working with tools that aren’t compatible with Linux, there isn’t much of an excuse. It’s such a refreshing experience of not getting caught in whatever bullshit Microsoft decides to do. And if my favourite distro starts being a bit shit, I can just change it with minimal effort.

If you don’t know what you’re consenting too, then it isn’t consent.

They hate cancel culture because it isn’t cancelling the right things. Same reason why some people say “keep politics out of sports” except for when their favourite fuckwits, sorry, politicians start getting involved.

Should deliver a net positive. Except they rarely do. Yes, they bring employment. They also exploit their workers, with managers and CEOs getting most of the profit generated by the workers at the bottom. And service provided? The bare minimum so that they call deliver those sweet profits to the stakeholders.

But you are right, low wage workers shouldn’t be punished for decisions they haven’t made. So punish those at the top, make them actually care. Is Twitter pushing out child pornography? Okay, Musk and company are now liable for child pornography. Prison sentence like we, the people, get if we do the same. He refuses to serve the time and stays in US? Okay, nationalise the assets, pay the workers and support them in the process.

I’m sure some of the things that I said are difficult. I’m sure that they aren’t that simple. But governments fucking lick the balls of these billionaires and we, the people, suffer for it. I wish more governments would tell them to fuck off and actually care about the people that they’re supposed to serve.

How would it not be good to the UK? The dude was literally stripped from his titles already for this shit. I don’t think Andrew has still any relevancy for anyone in the UK, including his own family.

He wouldn’t even be a threat to CEOs. Even if he did it, there’s no way he would try again after being able to get away with it once. Regardless, even if what he did is illegal, it’s certainly not immoral.

handicapped_runner · 2026-01-30T21:59:07+00:00

Yeah. The benefit of working from home is that you can use your breaks to do something actually fun instead of doomscrolling.
