The thing about Bezos killing WaPo's endorsement of Harris, Soon-Shiong killing LA Times' wall-to-wall coverage of their Harris endorsement, and Elon using Twitter as his personal propaganda arm to elect nazis into power, is that I could not better demonstrate if I tried how society is incompatible with the existence of billionaires.

Great job, assholes. Taxing you at 95% and breaking the control you have over your businesses is the *politest* response to you throwing in with nazis to keep your ill-gotten fortunes.

Anyway. If you haven't voted already, please do. These assholes need to be shown the door, unceremoniously thrown through it, and shut down in every aspect of our politics other than their singular right to one vote.

Also an icewing named Brauby the Seven-headed Scream is notable in that they'd also make an excellent metal band cover.

Discovered that there's a Wings of Fire mod for Dwarf Fortress. Decided to try it to see what absolute disasters it would generate, and heck, it did not disappoint.

Shoutout to Dreadbeard the seawing and his disaster of a battle polycule. Absolute legends.

@gardevoir Yuuuuup. Also, if you've never seen this, it's unnervingly as accurate for novices as for pros: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GWY7fsXwh24

@Soreth @kistaro This also ignores that at least two organizations benefiting from keeping that endless war at bay were secretly building super weapons to astroturf the planet, and that one of them, quite explicitly, is a military contractor.

It's a thing.

@KayOhtie Having played Switch games on the Steam Deck including TotK, it gets mostly full speed. Expect some crashes (esp during big area loads), but I was playing around with mods just fine with only minor frame drops otherwise.

Dunno how available emulators will be after Yuzu got taken down, though. Worth exploring.

@kistaro A good example of this is Truecrypt vs OpenSSL.

The former very credibly got NSLed as a single target, even with good opsec by the creator. The latter, governments have been trying to legislate out of existence or destroy largely ineffectually, because it has too many candidate instances of its operation.

This is also why, as much as I'm reluctant to be a purist, I've generally been preferring open source. It's harder to destroy by those so inclined.

@chr Red Link is red luigi. We don't talk about what they did to purple luigi in Tri Force Heroes.
