I hope so, but given that we already know drumph will do a terrible job from.... IDK, four years ago?

..... I think that it's likely that this lesson will ever be learned.

In the most simplest, all I want is for people to look at the platforms and what each party wants to achieve before putting a mark beside their name at the voting booth. That's it.

If you can, with good conscience, vote for someone, knowing what they want to do for the people, then you deserve whatever they do if they win. If you vote without knowing what their plan is, that doesn't absolve you, in fact, you're probably more guilty than if you knew what you were voting for.

Say it with me now: ignorance is not an excuse.

Honestly, I didn't expect that Epic would be okay with this.

It's nice to see, and bluntly, after a game has gone through all the different stages of buying and owning, why not make it free? Makes it that much easier for nostalgia nerds to have awesome LAN parties.

I don't think this makes up for the long list of consumer hostile things that Epic has done, but it doesn't hurt.

The next thing I'd like to see is to have games open sourced when stuff like this happens and the game is well into obsolescence. At least someone can pick up the mantle that studios don't want to have anything to do with, when it comes to making the game compatible with newer operating systems, or alternative operating systems (like Linux, though I think UT supported Linux), or so that it can be built for new architectures like Apple's new arm based silicon.

There's no profit in the game anymore, so just let people have it so they can fix what you don't care about anymore.

That fits. Just like Android, Starbucks coffee is well made, by someone who isn't you.

The quality of the final product is still in question though.

IMO, probably Gentoo, but compiled from source.

And the last time you recompiled the kernel was, at most, 3 days ago.

Okay, I have a Keurig for convenience but I prefer to make my coffee using a method that isn't described here.

If you're wondering, I prefer the French press.

I love it.

OP, I hope you know that's his Xbox now. If you wanna keep playing Xbox stuff, you'll have to buy a new Xbox to play on, so George can keep his bed.

Neither option is good long-term.

If you check out forever, this shit is only going to get worse. If you stay angry all the time, you'll be punishing yourself about something you cannot control.

Check out for the next year or two, then switch to unbridled hatred during midterms.

After that, check out until the next federal election. When that comes around, you know what to do.

As a Canadian, you can extend the top two up to us and it would still mostly fit.

I'm on the "acts mean, is nice" side in Ontario, and you all can get fucked 🖕

Let me help you with carrying your groceries, fuck face.

Those have been researched and tested for decades and the tech still hasn't caught on. They just don't put out enough power to be useful for much more than a clock circuit (not even enough to power a full watch, just keep the time).

I have serious doubts they're going to suddenly become viable anytime soon.

Any useful energy production from nuclear is basically just making steam to run turbines. Same with coal but you know.

Ew, I'd rather not fuck Elon. He's not my type.

Fuck. I can't out-stupid this guy. I won't win.
