Grim Fandango.

Seriously, it’s one of the only games I consider to even HAVE a soundtrack. It’s absolutely next-level.

I ate too much popcorn.

• No travel to the US
• Absolutely as few American products purchased as possible - to the point of not buying carrots when I can’t get local ones
• Closing and deleting my social media accounts and cloud services
• Avoiding American-owned companies whenever possible

In addition, I’ve been avoiding the worst Canadian companies when possible (specifically, the ones who really don’t give a fuck about Canada) - Shopify, Loblaws, and the rest.

Two words:

Fuck Trump.

I played through RDR and RDR2 on a 1060 and i7-4770k, and it ran fine at 1200p. Damned shame that these cards won’t ve getting updates anymore.

But they’re stable as they stand and we WILL be getting security updates, so my card is going to run another year.

This case has been on my mind a lot lately.

It’s possible that (a) they absolutely committed sexual crimes, and (b) they shouldn’t be convicted.

It is the law’s job to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. That means that the accusers in any case have to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt - which unfortunately means getting grilled mercilessly.

It’s imperfect - it’s a flawed system that lets guilty people go free. HOWEVER, better to let the guilty go free than imprison the innocent. And the thing is, as long as there isn’t a perfect record of all actions and intentions, it’s always going to be imperfect.

My feeling is that they five are dirtbags who at the VERY least, took gross advantage of a woman who didn’t know what she was getting in to; and are almost certainly guilty in a non-legal sense of rape. But generally speaking, if the judge says there isn’t enough evidence to convict them, then I’m inclined to believe the judge.

Now the real question is whether the NHL opens their arms to these shitheads, or whether they say “no, we’d rather not.” Except that it’s not a question - the NHL, like any sports league, will come up with an excuse to allow at least the good ones in without consequence.

I included that quote, because regardless of the outcome, it seems obvious to me that the Westons are doing this for the charitable tax writeoff and the goodwill they think they’ll garner.

Then get it established insteadnof fuck8ng around.

I’ve got a portable DVD player, and I’m going to use it to install the original Psychonauts onto my son’s computer, so he can see what the meat circus was like before they softened it.

Geekbench did some testing a month ago, and came up with ‘comparable to a gtx 660.’

Well then, FIX YOUR FUCKING COUNTRY!

Accuweather has been fighting for decades to prevent free access to weather information. They’re fucking assholes who deserve to be shut down.

Nobody had vaccines forced on them. Not one person in Canada.

Just to be clear here:

1. We’re all too old to understand anything. BUT…
2. You’re speaking from far more tech experience than any of us have.

Yeah. Sounds reasonable.

You can never completely regulate the internet…

True enough.

…and it’s absolutely pointless to try.

Um, no. Absolutely worthwhile to establish a reasonable non-destructive internet. Bad players will always find ways - they always have - but they can and should be relegated to the fringes where they have to work to have their voices heard, not be amplified by the biggest platforms in existence.

So the racist, aggressively homophobic, hate-based fascist who illegally funded foreign political candidates is upset?

Seriously, look up Pete Hoekstra if you want to get angry. The man is a piece of shit in the highest degree.

This headline could be reposted every single week and be accurate.

Almost all of them are being created by an activist group, so they’ll universally be Liberal-party-hating left-leaning ideologues.

I disagree with this tactic. As much as it may hurt Poilievre (I doubt it, really), it will hurt Critchley at least as much.

The idea is to show the failings in our electoral system, but I don’t see how it does that - and it plays into the hands of authoritarians who want to tightly vet the candidates appearing on a ballot.

If we had MMP voting, how would that stop enormous ballots from happening - other than encouraging the groups doing this to retire?

While I don’t want to see the number of signatures to get on a ballot increased, I don’t see a problem with requiring people to only sign on for one candidate.
