The difference is that in going to the past you have some idea of how things played out and what changes might matter. The changes that come up in time travel discussions are things like “kill this person before they do anything” or “let this guy into art school” or “cancel this one particular flight.” By the time the real consequences of possible small changes are known, you need more than small changes to acheve your objective.

That’s my thought too.

You know he doesn’t. The lottery doesn’t pay with fucking cash in duffel bags. Win the lottery my ass.

He should spend more time with Trump.

Even immersing the car doesn’t really stop it, it kind of just pauses the fire. When it’s surfaced again and starts to dry it tends to self ignite again for a very long time. EV fires are extremely difficult to stop right now and the procedure usually boils down to “Let it burn itself out and keep everything around it from catching too.”

It’s fucked up, Cutco knives are actually pretty good. I have a set myself, along with some other stuff on theirs, but the MLM sales scheme is just such dogshit. It’s a weird case where it’s a good product that I absolutely would not suggest to a friend.

Being on an egalitarian network of folks talking doesn’t render you immune, and indeed requires, that stupid statements and stupid ideas be demolished for their own lack of value.

This doesn’t appear to be about games that don’t have the proper licenses though. They do, but the licenses don’t mention Steam and some chucklefuck thought that would be the key to making a ton of money.

It’s like suing Spotify because an artist correctly licensed a sample.

Fuck Discord is the common message now, but how about we amplify good alternatives? It’ll be easier to tell Discord to fuck off if we’re already set to move elsewhere.

Did you miss the part where the change is global? It also applies where the government hasn’t required it.

I’m sure that’s a distinction the magastapo will appreciate as they beat you to death.

Well Timmy that should make it pretty easy to make a platform that both users and content producers like more. If you actually try to compete you might accomplish something.

I would rather pay money than use Epic, not because I don’t want another launcher but because it’s Epic.

That also assumes they got it on Epic in the first place, instead of the increased awareness of the game leading them to decide to get it, just from Steam instead.

I haven’t really seen demands for lower prices on AI slop, but I’ve seen a lot of outright refusal to buy at any price, and returns when the disclosure came later.

Tell us you’re from .ml without telling us.

And then wait for them to do it again in about 10 years to grab for even more. It’s not a peace plan, it’s surrender.

Sorry, best we can do is cyberpunk dystopia without literally any of the good parts.

As much as I hate the “celebrity for president!” trend, when the leading non-GOP option seems to be godamn Newsom, yeah I’d vote Stewart for sure.

Well yeah. Newsome is 100% politics, he plays the game. The only principal he sticks to is the one that directly benefits him. He will say what he thinks gets the votes he needs, even and especially if it means trying to appeal to shitty cuntservatives who might lean into centrist, or corpos who might throw campaign contributions at him.
