Yea, this reddit comment is the best summary of his behaviour I've seen:

Trump's thing is being completely uninhibited. He doesn't have that little voice in his head saying "no that would be stupid" or "you will face consequences if you grab the cop's service weapon." He doesn't experience regret, shame or anxiety, because he's at best vaguely aware of the past and future.

That's why he's not precisely a liar. He simply doesn't understand "truth" and "falsehood" as meaningful categories. There's only his emotional state at that specific moment, that's what defines his reality. If he gets a thought, he'll voice it immediately. If he experiences an impulse, he'll act on it, no matter what.

That's not exactly a good thing, but it does make him pretty unique.

Thanks! I'll eventually give them a try...

Are any of these a smooth transition coming from Adobe programs? I really don't want to re-learn my entire workflow in InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop.

I only pre-order Guild Wars 2 expansions, as it's my favourite game and I know that whatever I get, I'll feel that it was worth the money for the thousands of hours of fun I've got out of that game :)

But I wouldn't preorder anything else - I have a massive Steam backlog, and a few years after release I can get the properly finished, patched version of games with all the expansions for a fraction of the price (+ all the mods and community resources that had time to develop and mature). Last year I got Witcher 3 for like 90% off lol. No need to rush, there are so many older games I haven't played yet...

Btw I was a r/patientgamers member for years, I see that they also have a community on Lemmy :) https://sh.itjust.works/c/patientgamers

(...) anger over his $1,000 (£600) donation in 2008 to support Californian anti-gay marriage laws bubbled over when he was appointed chief executive.

need a Chromium browser for technical reasons

With a similar use case, after messing around with Brave, then Ungoogled Chromium for a few years, I just reinstalled Google Chrome last month. I literally only need it for making sure webdesign stuff I do works okay in Chrome, and for the extremely rare websites I come across that refuses to work in Firefox 🤷 I didn't change any settings or install even an adblocker, to make sure I'm testing as close to the "vanilla" experience as possible. I also don't log into any accounts with it, so I don't really care if Google sees what I do for that 2-3 page visits / month.

I think anyone who is already using Firefox knows very well why they wouldn't want to use Brave 🤷 (My main reasons were being a Chromium browser and having unwanted crypto features included.)

Edit: Oh yes, and the CEO's homophobia is not helping either...

Yea, but the whole notion that Steam just lets developers do this, sometimes repeatedly...

that 2nd sentence is pure poetry 👌

thanks for recommending this channel, seems right up my alley!
