New Argentinian President Says Adios to Argentina’s Ministry of Culture
  • His face creeps me out so much. I usually try to attack the policies and not the person but it is just too much for me.

    It’s like if Jason Bateman was cast in an oddball version of Batman where the Penguin was actually Isaac Asimov.

    Draymond punches Nurkic, gets tossed
  • Draymond, you moron.

    How many second chances do you think you’re going to get? You keep throwing hands and it’s not just an accident it’s a pattern.

    If this doesn’t cook him I’ll be shocked. This is strike fucking a billion, but within the last bit I can think off the top of my head: he threw punches at Poole, chokes Gobert, and now sucker punches Nurkic.

    Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney was asked by Verge why there is no support for the Steam Deck for Fortnite
  • Meanwhile Sweeney is being litigious instead of inventive.

    Not that the lawsuits don’t have merit, just very interesting to see the vast difference in focus between the two companies.

    GM Says It's Ditching Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for Your Safety
  • This feels like something a C-suite came up with to carve out extra profit and had some bean counters crunch the numbers on, fluffed them up a bit and then had the company roll with it on his idea.

    I’m usually disappointed by consumer apathy, but from everyone I talk to who has a car with a screen, if they have CarPlay/Android Auto they couldn’t do without it, and if they don’t have it it’s the biggest thing they wish they had.

    GM Says It's Ditching Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for Your Safety
  • I’d agree with your first statement if they were getting the boot in the place of a company with honesty, value, integrity, quality and security.

    GM is none of those things, and it’s highly unlikely they’ll ever be any of those things.

    This is bad news.

    Benefits of Accelerating the Climate Transition Outweigh the Costs | Climate Change Indicators Dashboard shows that avoiding physical damage from climate change can have sizable benefits
  • I think this is obvious to anyone that has viewed the damage that the extreme weather has brought in recent years

    The issue was, is and will continue to be whose pocketbook it’s hurting.

    Almost exclusively the damages will be suffered by poor and middle class, and paid out by public coffers while the profits made by NOT making these changes will be private and for the rich.

    We’re not going to see any change until this starts hurting the rich.

    Scott Pilgrim Takes Off Creators on That New Casting: 'We Couldn't Have Done It' Without Him [Contains Spoilers]
  • I’ve tried. I even had a PS3 i kept with it when it was taken off all the storefronts for a while to keep trying.

    I just can’t do brawlers. It’s not my type of game. I wish.

    Far-right leader Geert Wilders wins Dutch election: Exit poll
  • Do we know why? For Americans, I can see the nihilism of the grunge era affecting the latter part of that group, and possibly having a lasting effect towards political compass.

    But I can’t think of a reason of the top of my head for European millennials driving so deep into that side of politics.

    Scott Pilgrim Takes Off Creators on That New Casting: 'We Couldn't Have Done It' Without Him [Contains Spoilers]
  • I read the original comic on paperback in black and white, went to launch parties for the releases, then bought it in colour, lost both sets in moves, bought it all in digital form, then again in a physical box set when I settled down. Saw the movie several times in theatres and own the original bluray and then 4K release bluray as well. I also bought Lost at Sea and Seconds as my first gifts to my now wife.

    Suffice to say, I’m a fan of the series and the creator.

    I fucking loved the new spin on it. So so so much. I loved getting to explore some of the other characters who didn’t get as much spotlight in previous adaptations. I loved the whodunnit we got to explore with Ramona, who is much closer to the Ramona of the books than the movie, and I felt was a welcome change, even if the portrayer (who I still love) was the same. The Easter eggs and hints for the fans of the series were great as well.

    The one thing I kept looking for, hoping for, waiting for .. where the fuck is Lisa Miller.

    If We’ve Lost the Climate War, What’s Plan B? | The Tyee
  • lol exactly.

    I want to show up, do work, get paid, be left alone.

    I’ll do really good work, and take pride it in because that’s just who I am, but I don’t want to do overtime, I don’t want to go above and beyond for the company, I don’t want to play office politics, I don’t want to jockey for higher roles. None of it.

    Show up, get paid.

    Hollywood to UK Govt: Investigating Pirates "Increasingly Difficult" * TorrentFreak
  • This is it right here.

    If I want to watch something, can I do it within 2 minutes?

    Now? If it’s not in the current app I’m in and featured, unlikely.

    Piracy? Through a handful of services, local or remote, I can be watching that movie in one place in 30 seconds in the highest quality.

    What service was once decent has been ruined by capitalism again.

    GameVault Update - What's happened 4 months after initial release
  • I’m commenting on this again because I actually tried this tonight. The info is pretty sparse. I know it’s an alternate install method, but in bottles there’s a lot of variables.

    Even just knowing which runner was used in testing would help a ton, as there are quite a few, and each has tons of versions.

  • They’re counting on people being complacent and just whitelisting.

    The problem is, they’re probably right to try the tactic too. People need those dopamine hits.
