Over half the country voted for trump, the man who will make everything worse and who appeals to people's most base instincts. Some of the worst mass shootings were under Trump.

I don't think violence will necessarily be contained to Democrats and old style Republicans. The new right likes corruption, which includes POS health insurance companies.

I'd love to play Elite II, though I'm glad that the contemporary franchise is so flipping good. It's up there in my top games of all time.

Not even just ignorable. I literally don't even hear about them until they release on steam and people talk smack in steam reviews. It might as well not exist unless it's on Steam or GOG.

Apparently Alan Wake 2 came out on PC awhile ago, and I literally had no idea until someone bitched about it on Lemmy, lol.

I hope Intel gets their act together soon. We can't have a monopoly on chips on the CPU or GPU space.

Hopefully you unplugged it from the wall and drained the capacitors before reaching down. xD

Glad you still have hands!

Once I knew it was $600 to repair, I bought a cheaper phone. I had plans to buy a used version of my flagship and raid it for parts, but in the end, it just didn't pencil out financially.

Plus, I hadn't had a phone for a week+ and it was getting difficult to do work since my job requires 2FA on personal devices (a terrible idea, btw).

Pray they don't, but I'm almost certain they will now that the US is appointing complete morons to every portion of the US government. The US won't really be able to help until this rot gets cleaned out. China has four years before we can really help Taiwan again. (Or at least give them air superiority)

The new commentary is really good, tbh. I had no idea how much research and R&D they did. It looks fucking amazing for a 2004 game. The characters in particular.

Did you manage to extract it from the garbage disposal?

I recently bought a cheap phone after I broke my main one, because I needed something while my main one was being "repaired". It turns out that this new cheap phone has a headphone jack AND a better stylus. It also had a solid 1000mah bigger battery and 10w extra of charging over my old flagship.

When the repair shop told me that the 20 cent ribbon connector couldn't be replaced and that the repair would be $600 for a new screen and glass back, I decided to keep the cheap phone, which works damn well. It's so nice to have a headphone jack to use again. All my other shit still has headphones jacks from my PC/laptop/SD to my car and stuff like kitchen stereos. I can use my Bluetooth earbuds, but they only have about 5 hours of playback and have a bad click in one bud after the first year of use.

I'm almost disappointed at how good this mid-range, $250 phone is compared to my $1,700 Samsung. I've been wasting money for years on flagships. Not going back after I got my data transferred to my new phone.

Elite Dangerous. Well over 1,000 hours, especially with friends to explore the black with. Hard to get into, but it has so much stuff to do. It made me passionate about space! (And it's always fun reading articles about a far-flung star and thinking "hey! I've been there!")
