Looks so pleasant in the last panel like “awwwwyiss, still got it~”

You are based for stanning gog and thus are absolved <3

I love their zero tolerance for DRM so much

…

oooooookayyyyyyyy.

billionaires, man: they not like us ._.

edit: oh wow i suddenly just realized, the fact that i never installed the epic games store and didn’t accept from them even the things they were giving away FOR FREE means that i never aided or abetted this irredeemable monstrous pedophile scumbag sack of shit. I did not expect to feel vindicated today. What a pleasant surprise.

the triple-dog-dare strikes again

“The Year Of Our Lord LinuxDesktop”

huh wow. i was going to presume it was a storage volume quantity calibration of some kind. neat.

Just because a traffic engineer has qualifications doesn’t necessarily guarantee they’re not an asshole who is wrong and also sucks.

There is no kind of person who obsessively fixates upon the subject of penises with a frequency or intensity greater than that of a transphobe.

Fact: 90% of all leftist infighters MUST quit as a prerequisite before the movement can be capable of revolution, irrespective of “purity”.

The box in question is tiny: about the size of a GameCube. Extremely portable, light, and quiet. Valve has a strong profit motive to ensure games can actually run on it without Windows, doing nearly all of the troubleshooting for you. Yeah you could install Linux on a system you built yourself. You can eat the responsibility of expensive mistakes you could possibly make in building it and setting it up. But if the steam machine doesn’t work ALREADY, straight out of the box, without the expectation for you to fuck with it, it’s valve’s problem. For grown ups who have a job and limited free time, not having to waste that time on unfucking shit may in fact be worth it.

… Kind of want to see more of her o///o

Socialism is “when good at math” now apparently e.e no wonder the chud states have shitty education. Patriotism means being a moron.

Replace all the icons on her side with just a thought bubble:

i love seeing others ask that same question!

one possibility i particularly like to consider, though…

is what if the force is all dark-side?

What if the so-called “light side” and all the jedi teachings exist solely as mechanisms of internal defense against a phenomenon that is inherently ontologically evil and absolutely would take any opportunity whatsoever to corrupt anyone it can?

I like to imagine that the force is, on the whole, a weapon. The way it fucks with probability on the quantum scale and can even rest an elbow on the scales of free will… look at all the technology we see in star wars: despite all its incredible capabilities, it’s all chonky, thicc, and analog. I for one think that digital microcomputing as we know it in our galaxy would be rendered impossible by the interference of the force… on purpose. my wacky zany headcanon proposes The Force was created to render a ‘grey goo’ nanite swarm inert and incapable of functioning wherever it is present, because it ruins the deterministic phenomena upon which nanoscale computational systems rely.

anyway, outside of that, even if it WEREN’T like that, i’m rather a fan of morality being something that sapient minds manufacture. Not to say that it isn’t real or valid or useful, but that the universe–or at least the living beings within it–benefit from the imposition of this abstract framework of right and wrong. it’s not intrinsic, but rather the gift that sapience delivers upon the causal volume within which it lives. the meaning of life being to create meaning, to put it another way. And when we take that abstraction too far into absolute/fundamentalist/puritanical extents, that TOO is an overwhelming imbalance that causes harm. Exploring the boundaries of benefit and harm in this environment we’ve created is itself a compelling narrative hook.

I wish the libraries around here were open overnight…

Fuckin love me a cheap ass box of Moscato from the liquor store down the road. If i pace myself it can last me weeks.

I imagine they use it for the same reason I use Patreon: if i like the content someone is producing, I would like to see them compensated for it. Artists and other creators whose work I love deserve to have nice things. If I can symbolically buy these people lunch on a monthly basis every so often, that’s quite nice.
