Would be real neat if the carrot stopped murdering children though.

I can’t argue with your logic here, and neither can I fault your conclusion. All that being the case, though, what can US voters do in this case?

Not vote? Vote 3rd party? Do you guys even have more than 2 parties over there? Seems like you have even more of a duopoly than we do over here in the UK.

I’ll be real, that situation seems pretty fucked, but I have no idea about US politics really, I’m from Wales.

That being said, our main political parties are essentially in this same state by the looks of things.

Turns out we should have been helping Ukraine against Putin’s fascistic colonialism instead of supporting an entirely separate set of fascists commit genocide in Palestine.

Wild that the answer to young people being exposed to literal genocide and having an opinion about it, isn’t to try and do something about the genocide, but to call it indoctrination and try to ban it.

Make it make sense.

Can confirm the Game pass part.

If it’s presented as such, then I’ve no issue at all. Art can be cool, AI or otherwise, and I like looking at cool things.

This is unfortunately a well documented fact at this point.

Next up - Water found to be wet!

For what it’s worth, in 2019 a majority of people voted for parties other than the Tories. They received 43% of the vote, and their leader at the time was Boris Johnson.

The last two Prime Ministers weren’t elected by voters, though I suppose you could argue that the majority of voters didn’t elect Boris either.

The comments I’m seeing saying something like “well you voted for this” are incredibly misguided. We have a fucking terribly archaic voting system that doesn’t serve us at all, there are several large pushes throughout the UK trying to change that.

Appreciate the info.

People that have played this – Are you enjoying it? Would it be okay for me to jump in and play this new one and not miss anything story wise, provided I’ve never played any of the others? Or should I be looking to at least look to learn the story so far with the other games before attempting to play this new one?

Thanks in advance!

Man-child overpays for company, makes a concerted effort to ruin the things that make it good, then complains that it’s not good anymore.

For someone who claims to be smart, Elon is a fucking idiot.

Many of us here in the UK are currently fighting for the reverse.

Given a referendum on it now, I dare say renationalisation would be the outcome by quite a margin.

When I switched from FF to WF it was lighter on system resources, faster and cut out a lot of the telemetry included in FF.

I’ve not used Firefox for well over a year now, so I can’t speak to that still being the case, but those were the main draws for me.

I use this often when I’m writing articles, it’s incredibly easy to use and I’ve yet to have any issues with it.

I use it on Waterfox, for what it’s worth. Absolutely recommend.

To add to the above, there is also an absolutely massive modding scene for Ark, that can add anything from hundreds of new dinosaurs, to NPC’s, to new structures and mechanics.

A lot of fun to be had with Ark, doubly so if you can convince some friends to give it a go with you.

WoW (Private Servers)

GW2 (Personal fave out of these)

FFXIV

ESO

I also hear New World has vastly improved since launch but I’ve not played it since beta so I can’t really say.

There is a considerable amount of depth to the game, but it’s not insurmountable for anyone. You’ll have no problem going through the game if you read through tool tips and help pop-ups as they arise. DnD knowledge needed is none at all or negligible at best.

If you do end up playing, I hope you enjoy!

Pretty much this. People seem to forget that we few that value this level of browser privacy and security are an extreme minority.

The vast majority of users just want it to work, without error. Some don’t even care that much about it being fast or slow once they’re entrenched in the system.

Frankly I’m anti-lobbying, in an ideal world this shit would be illegal. But we’re not in an ideal world and this is not abnormal.
