It’s paid for by our taxes. The bribes and backdoor deals go straight into his pocket.

We could just skip to the end, but a bunch of assholes are fighting us every tiny step of the way.

You can host the server on the same machine the game is running on, it’s not uncommon during development especially the early stages.

I don’t have a problem if someone wants to turn a battle royale into a 4 player game.

If someone wants to host something bigger, that’s cool too.

I think there would be room in the market for a group to host servers for abandoned games.

It’s not terribly difficult or costly to set up a cloud host if you remember to put the cost restrictions on, so there’s one more option for multiplayer games.

That’s for games in the past, games going forward could be designed better. But for games that have already been made, there’s no reasonable way to redesign games that have already been published. Any redesign will change the game instead of preserving it, and you’ll never get the original devs back together with the original tech stack in order to do any major changes. But smaller things like getting old games to be able to point to different servers isn’t a big problem.

Or just let someone else host a fucking server and let the game get pointed to that one or any other they want. They could even sell the server software and make money on that. I’d love to host my own servers of some old online only games where I could play with just my friends and family.

The cop was armed and was already known to shoot someone in the back, the father was afraid for his life and had to make a split second decision.

Weird, guy who breaks laws with impunity doesn’t care about laws.

I think Trump’s actions are not particularly unique, but he’s doing actions that have been previously condemned and in the minority. I’m not so naive as to think that all corruption can be eliminated, but when it’s out in the open and the people are getting away with it in the open, that’s much worse than what had happened before. Trump is a unique phenomenon in that sense and the sheer number of illegal things he’s doing.

We were heading towards something like Trump eventually if you track what monied interests, through the GOP, have been doing since at least when Nixon resigned. I’m sure the GOP were hoping to pick their guy instead of Trump, with Russia’s help, taking advantage of what they were setting up.

I get that there have also been corrupt Dems, and there so are, like Nancy Pelosi, but they’re not the primary avenue of the oligarchs to enact their agenda. Though they have captured the Dem leadership as well.

But I would welcome a more robust system to root out corruption. And for laws to be applied equally. If that takes out a significant portion of the government, then I think that’s fine, as long as it’s not some bullshit like what’s currently going on.

It’s nice to see some good news from time to time in these troubling times.

And it’s so frustrating that they are not in jail.

Ah yeah. It would take a lot. Even at 90% $100m from a billion is still way more than most of us.

If the tax bracket for no taxes is $10k, you don’t get taxed if make under that.

If the tax bracket for 5% is $10-20k, and you made $15k, the first $10k is not taxed, but the $5k is taxed at %5.

So you would never make $0 after taxes, even if you made it into the hypothetical 100% tax bracket.

Everything that has been privatized, has ended up costing us more for shittier service. This will not be different.

It’s a condemnation of capitalism and all of human society that an idiot like Elon is the wealthiest person on the planet.

It’s scary because it’s falling on a lot of us. And it won’t just be the US that it falls on either.

Pointing out racism is not you making everything about racism, it’s there being a lot of racist shit.

The Mexican pizza that had olives on it.

Alright, buddy, have fun.
