They showed remarkable restraint in not immediately shooting someone who pulled out a gun, and when they did fire, they did not invite themselves or bystanders. It doesn’t initially seem like they did anything wrong and they executed it well. That’s the surprising part.

To answer your question, at my skill level, probably missed and shot someone else.

The most surprising part of the article:

None of the officers, nor the driver and another passenger, were injured.

Not personnel.

• clear cut forests
• replant overly dense for farming lumber
• in a climate dependent on regular smaller fires, fight every fire for 150 years
• allow and subsidize the buildup of atmospheric carbon and the runaway of global warming and climate change
• ignore all scientific evidence and pursue only short-term profits

… Then act surprised and blame everything but the actual problem when mega fires bloom ever larger and more out of control year after year. They even signed a non binding agreement basically agreeing to the above. And, this very much isn’t just California, they just have the local climate with a drought/flood cycle that really exacerbates the cycle.

They have quite a few posts that are primarily about design philosophy. It’s clear they put a lot of time and effort into it. One of my favorites that has driven a lot of innovation in you can interact with the game is

One that I find myself coming to a sort of grudging agreement with is (veterancy for units isn’t good):

Thank you, zero k interface is amazing, and their “cold takes” show a design philosophy I constantly find myself wishing I’d find pretty much everywhere else.

The Top Gun soundtrack definitely sets the standard.

Especially co-op, Torchlight was fantastic. Basically all of the right QoL implementations so everything was just about having fun.

Grim Dawn; ARPG from 2016, currently on sale for a few $ on steam. Very well rated with solid story, mechanics, and campaign focus (instead of more on seasons and grind).

So much of the morality we’re taught is really only applicable to our class.

Well, that’s why he’s qualified.

If it makes you feel better they’re super shitty to their paying customers too.

But it’s not supposed to be literal!

(unless I say it is)

This was the first and the one thing they united to do everything in their power to ensure passage in 2016.

Everything else following was theater and/or smaller scale quid pro quo. Those actions still have serious consequences, especially for reproductive rights and minorities, but delivering money to the wealthy is the one true gospel.

Microsoft makes its money from business and enterprise customers. Home users are a drop in the bucket.

Money from home users is from stealing data.

the people of South Dakota, not the politicians in Pierre, will be the ones to decide whether to restore Roe v. Wade as the law of South Dakota

This reminds that although abortion rights are the most important result of Roe v Wade, there are other rights that were abrogated when it was overturned. It’s hard to say all that was lost, and those generally won’t be recovered with these efforts.

That is a good place to start your journey.

come on guys, I do X because of Y, everyone else must do it for the same reason, and if they claim otherwise they’re definitely lying.

Then don’t be part of society is the root of that argument.

Don’t want to be tracked? Don’t use a phone. Or a car.

Don’t want to support exploitative publishers? Don’t read.

Can’t afford rent?

Can’t find a job?

It’s all just blaming people for corporate bullshit.

How do you opt out? Stop texting and delete all messages?
