Same as any other means of production. Mass media is what started the really revolutions of the proletarian era, the Internet is still young.

What’s happening is Amazon comes in and builds a warehouse or data center, then Black Rock comes in and buys up the homes around there area, then sells those homes off to developers who build “luxury apartments” near the data center. Bonus points if the owner of the developer is also contacting with Amazon.

This means they charge 80% of the wage earned at the warehouse for the apartments and can keep rent in lockstep with wages meaning a wage increase is just a shifting of funds from the warehouse profits to the landlord profits.

Weird, that seems to be one of the only ones that shows up. Even searching hexbear returns results for prolewiki and the gitlab first

Games are just emulating slot machines. That’s fine sometimes, I enjoy RNG stuff being exposed and making number crunching flashy occasionally, but it’s kinda weak design when the themes of your game allow for you to mask that stuff behind character design instead of just copy and pasting assets and changing the values

Wasn’t he also in Nioh and the inspiration for Afro Samurai? Absolute babies

If you’re gonna have leveled enemies in an action game, the best way to do it is to make them visually different from regular goons and give them something like more armor, or a helmet, or a bigger weapon that’s immune to regular parry.

Do your leveling by gating areas with enemy types that require you to either master the combat or unlock a weapon through story progression that trivializes them.

Are you using pcpartpicker? That site is pretty good about flagging potential issues in a build. They have measurements and power ratings and slot configurations for basically everything so they’ll flat a build that has incompatibilities

This actually looks really cool. Like Helldivers and Death Stranding had a baby

“The program is so entrenched, and the companies have so much political influence over Democrats as well as Republicans through campaign contributions and lobbying, that eliminating the program will be a heavy lift, at least in the near term,” Potter added. “That means that proposals to reform MA that address overpayments and abuses like prior authorization are essential and important for reform advocates to support.”

Love that institutionalized bribery and corruption are just a fact of life in American politics. The fact that stuff costs more and does less is a feature, not a bug, because of the system functioned well and the government got good deals for people, there’s less of that money being funneled to their friends that pay them to maintain the inefficiency.

It’s only fascism after it’s stopped

My favorite part of BG3 is how when you make a big decision that has immediate consequences, the game just stops for a second as if it was a DM thinking about what to do next.

I knew it was rough at Current Affairs after the boycott, but I didn’t know Nathan ended this low having to sell lemonade to pay the bills.

They were shooting for a doohickey, but they ended up making a thingamajig

You just ban people from throwing up in hospitals, or at least charge them a $175,000 vine cleaning fee

It was meant to be a device

I’d vote for this Biden

When you have a small dev team who also play tests, they’re easy to debug too because all the content can be reached within 30 minutes to an hour.

Is this sorta calling for a nonviolent form of protest like the situationalists?

Southern sweet tea is more of a dessert. Basically everyone here orders unsweet though and adds sugar to taste. The sweet tea they sell is mostly for kids and old ladies.

Protests are the compromise, and if they don’t get the compromise they’re supposed to blossom into revolution.

The Western powers have so thoroughly defanged the left though that the second stage of protest is basically never a threat.

A protest is meant to be brandishing a weapon, but our weapon is a banana.
