“Superman is encouraging Americans to become real-life superheroes by answering their country’s call to join the brave men and women of ICE to help protect our communities to arrest the worst of the worst,” said DHS assistant secretary Tricia McLaughlin.

I wonder how DC Comics are taking the news that their creation, whose morals are as iron and motives are peace and human life, may well become a Nazi posterboy, led by some barely known actor whose morals are nonexistent and motives are social regression and oppression.

He’s just salty his is the most forgettable Superman

Well, for my world it’s interesting because the passenger seat is just that. But before the evolution of tech and everything else heavily affected travel, the front passenger seat held importance in that the one who sits there can assist in reading a map, adjusting the passenger wing mirror, monitoring the side directly while parking or other tight manoeuvres, emotional support for police stops, handling a drink so the driver can hydrate without endangering anyone, an extra pair of eyes on the less vital areas etc… Now these benefits of a primary passenger are almost nonexistent, as better driver-side controls, digital maps, GPS and TTS, and stricter road safety laws (banning consumption while driving) reduce the need for an assistant driver.

Amazon and their copycats seem to be calling them ‘nailers’, probably because it’s easier to filter out the constructive guns from destructive, prohibited ones. But Amazon is evil so it’s probably unrelated

Reminder that while law can be used to attack people, nature cannot be overwritten or defined by any law. It’s a constant, undeniable. The only real effect of the government’s stunt is open opposition to life. The government can disrespect the citizens, the citizens can disrespect the government.

Britain should take full military control of ‘Israel’ and hand it back to the Arab nations like they promised, back when the whole region was Palestine. Undo their mistake of mass migrating a hostile colony that destroyed the local ecology.

When the market doesn’t have exactly what you need, the most powerful thing you can do is build your own version.

I’ve had a perfectly fine experience with two drives I bought, and don’t know if it’s because they were premium products, but based on this I would still recommend Ironwolf Pro. It’s a shame that online shopping has to be such a tedious gamble, as some sellers are diabolical; marketplace hosts are often just another layer of defense for the seller and be for the buyer; and buyers have no chance of prevention against bad couriers. We should at least be allowed to whitelist and blacklist certain couriers from being used to ship stuff we buy.

I personally prefer to go for more expensive drives (not for the price but it’s a constant correlation) because of the increased reliability and expected respect around trading a more valuable product. As a result I even choose Ironwolf over Barracuda. I’m not sure if this mutual respect is the reason for my experience purchasing, but both Ironwolf Pro drives I purchased came in a specifically designed box with cardboard kind of stabilising packing, so they sit rigid in the centre of the box. I trust that a more premium delivery option also results in a higher paid courier, who can afford to do the job properly and with pride. This isn’t necessarily the case, and relies on the seller being a good seller.

Well yes, and Steam is continuing to censor and damage its reputation as the best gamer’s market, as a conduit of free expression. It’s possible they are continuously pressured and were told to remove this, but they can also say no. Valve can have moral standards, and they can prove they’re not part of the problem by being transparent and ensuring that they do not help usher in a terrible, oppressive future.

Steam’s moderation just hit oppressive levels, and its staff banning/removing submissions that don’t break guidelines while lying about the reason is Reddit-level. Please Steam, you can stop being cunts. You can return from this.

At least the US is big enough that you can still fuck off to live outside of governance if you wanted. Free life is a pipe dream

Even mono is both channels, just identical

A brutal wake up call for me was finding that the shit I’d said or heard from others in sarcasm is unironically some folks’ belief. They don’t realise how much everyone around them suffers thanks to their actual belief in misogyny/misandry/fascism being necessary, climate change being a myth, surveillance being security, one’s existence being sinful, education being bad etc.

According to the very last quote in the article mentioned here:

“As someone who works in them… we do it 100% on purpose!” one man said.

Yep, it’s Bridgford. There is a rather hilarious article about local complaints.

The fact that this is a news article about a mundane social media post is another issue I won’t go into lol

Can confirm aha, this is faithful reposting because other sources of the bear comic date back to at least 2006, but this blog is the best location. Comics may need Google Lens to enjoy aha

This is another art site, it’s one comic per page and dated 2005, and names Go Byeong-gyu as the artist.

This is a Wiki page on the artist, and names cyworld.com as the original upload location, although cyworld seems to have since died.

Only the French (afaik, I’m not a polyglot) get it right, they call it ‘double V’
