Perfection is the enemy of progress.

I can’t even imagine how hot it would get under that armor. Especially during a midsummer skirmish.

Well, for starters, “tankie” is a pejorative term used to describe people that are staunch supporters of authoritarian communist regimes, that often overlook, excuse, or just outright support the atrocities that these regimes commit.

Second, I have no issues with a left wing peertube instance. However, Tankies don’t like anyone from the left unless they 100% align with their extreme views (they hate Democrats, Social Democrats, and most liberals in general as they feel that they are supportive of imperialism and capitalism), so don’t for a second act like I’m in the wrong here for asking people to be extremely skeptical of this source. The label of “tankie” suggests that it’s an extremist view of leftwing view points…which goes back to my original comment. Everything should be taken with a healthy amount of doubt and skepticism.

Can we get a better source than “Tankie.tube”? I mean,I hate Trump as much as the next rational, empathetic human being, but let’s not kid ourselves that this is an impartial, or reliable news source…

Yeah it’s already been said that AI is not exactly cost-effective. There’s a chance that it can get way dumbed down, privatized and expensive, or just completely dropped. What happens to all of those people that relied on it for their careers then?

How about we stop deporting people don’t like, whether they are white, brown, purple, or Jake Paul?

“Look, I know that these people voted for you and yours to suffer, but you just need to get over that so that we can come together and be a happy family again. You not getting over that one little tiny bump in our past just alienates everyone that wanted to see your life destroyed. It was a tiny blip from our past. Just get over it already.” ~You…for the most part.

Thanks Dropout!

Oof. Yeah, I did forgot how bad that interface was…

Apologies! Didn’t realize. Just saw an interesting question.

It’s mixed. I remember getting a blowjob from this one chick in college. I was in a dry spell, and she was eager to please. She was definitely not the most attractive women I am ever met, but she made up for it just in the enthusiasm. I came…but she kept going…my god she was a fucking champ. I still remember that one.

There was another time with a different girl, post-nut clarity kicked in with the vengeance and I pretty much threw my clothes on and ran out the door. Fuck the walk of shame, that was the sprint of regret.

Lol. If you haven’t tried I, you really should. It’s like an Enemy Within Demake, with all of the same features and better strategy. You can get an Alien Grenade Launcher that allows you to strategically control the route of the grenade. It allows for absolutely bonkers strategies like blowing a hole in the top of an alien battleship, guiding a grenade in blind to the enemy command structure, and then dropping in afterwards like some sort of Hi-Tech Psionic SWAT Team. Makes the entire enemy team panic. And makes for easy clean up.

Absolutely loved that game.

Edit: I think Xenonauts 2 is supposed to be pretty similar.

I bring it up here on Lemmy, because it was primarily the ML leftists (on Lemmy) that pushed the idea to skip voting as a way to protest Kamala as a choice…that it was better to permit an authoritarian to take office than allow a centrist democrat. I would 100% would have liked someone like Bernie taking office, but when I’m presented with ‘kick in the nuts’ vs being castrated as my only options, I’ll take the ‘kick in the nuts’ everytime.

In an ideal world, I would pick a progressive 10/10 times.

However we don’t live in an ideal world. If your options are warm, stale beer or a steaming cup of shit, I’m going to pick the better option, every time. I’ll push for more ideal options the next go around, but I won’t sink the ship and damn me and everyone to having to deal with shit the next 4 years because I didn’t get what I want.

XCOM: UFO Defense (1994)

It’s by far the best version of XCOM. I mean. The graphics are as great, but it has all of the same features as the modern version (not joking), and I think the strategy is by far better. You can also have your own base that you have to defend.

So, an ML Leftist? Sounds about right. If we can’t have the PERFECT candidate, it’s best to just burn everything down in a fit of rage. Forward progress be damned, it’s their way or it’s a vinegary piss fit.

Who could have ever forseen this?

Trump: “I declare that we’re having peace talks!”

Advisor: “Mr. President, that’s not how it works. You can’t just declare that two parties, that you’re not a part of and evidently shown you have zero control over, are now having peace talks.”

Trump: “…but I declared it.”

So much for “innocent until proven guilty”.
