Yep, this is the same guy who stated he didn’t even know how to say KAAMala, or is it Karmala? No body knows! No body knows…

Thanks for sharing that! That’s a really good explanation for what’s causing it. I’d heard a few different parts to why it’s happening but that post makes it really understandable.

I still have my pledge to SC, ~$25 so not a big one, but I’ve all but lost hope on a release of the full scope of the game as it was set out years ago thanks to the massive amount of feature creep and mismanagement.

Then 99% of those were created on Lemmy.world,

The instance I’m a part of has had issues federating with Lemmy.world for a lot of months now and it sucks because that’s where a large part of the community congregated and so it’s where a lot of content exists.

…legislation that would force women seeking an abortion after 27 weeks and six days – an extremely rare occurrence – to be induced, to deliver the child alive.

Emphasis mine.

That’s 10 weeks early. I’m far from an expert but that’s extremely premature, right? Like, that baby is going to be in a very precarious place for a significant amount of time, yeah?

Again, I’m far from an expert but that seems horrible for literally everyone involved, especially the child! Possibly leading to lifelong health and developmental issues.

[Ben Hood] has previously said that, once born, if the baby “isn’t compatible with life”, it would then be given palliative care.

Takes “born to die” to the extreme.

So you’re saying I’d need to remove 4-5 ribs?

One reason why I was aiming for a white car for my most recent purchase didn’t even get a mention; heat.

My family has always primarily owned coloured cars, dark blue and maroon, but I went from owning a black car to a white one and the cabin temp difference on a 30+°C day was staggering with the white car being much more tolerable.

They’re rebranding to Halo Studios and switching from an in-house engine to Unreal Engine for all future games.

Thanks! I was too lazy to search but curious enough to go to the comments.

Adding to this; Steam provides a hub where players purchase, play and review games. Meaning that I find the reviews to be more genuine.

E.g. every time I hear about a game that reviews decently well getting “review bombed” on Steam it’s because the company, usually the publisher, is fucking over the players in some way. Something that is well reported by players who can leave a product review on the same platform they purchased and played on.

So I wait for Steam release for reviews (on top of it being my preferred platform).

I don’t have these; can someone tell me if it was truly something users wanted changed? Or if there might have been some reason to change it to voice request only?
