yeah i'm honestly so grateful for it. I always felt the contradictions in liberalism but never had the words to express them, or even knew there was an alternative.

old chapo subreddit did kinda radicalize me lol. I found it during bernie 2016 and never left. I considered myself a liberal that wanted universal healthcare back then haha

playing the metaphor refantazio demo. Never have i ever been so disappointed by a cutscene in my life. just watched the

spoilerfuneral scene

Me playing the first half: oh wow cool, a new IP, generally pretty adult content, very stylish

Me while watching the funeral scene: omg its a YA anime, god damnit.

I knew the old guy was gonna die in the cutscene, but damn, i did not expect that awful reason.

literally a simpsons bit:

"Oh Lisa, there's no record of a hurricane ever hitting Springfield."...."Yes, but the records only go back to 1978, when the hall of records was mysteriously blown away."

Register using some Auto-KMS script, something like https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts might work, haven't checked in in a while.

You really don't have to do scorched earth and install linux. Just do a proper install of win 11 enterprise, with Rufus, and a few minutes disabling anything else you don't like. Also, use explorerpatcher https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher to fix various things like start menu, task bar, etc.

No ads, no Copilot AI, no search using bing, no telemetry, etc. etc. You can safely ignore all the doom and gloom about how windows is getting worse because if you remove all the crap its actually getting better.

Hi everyone! In my spare time, I've been developing an incremental/idle browser game, working title: 'Do Idlers Dream of Electric Numbers', or colloquially: D.I.D.O.E.N. From the title, you can guess it is a cyberpunk themed game. It is strongly inspired by other similar games like 'A Usual Idle Life' and 'Progress Knight'

Its currently just an Alpha version, meaning the core mechanics are pretty much complete, I just need to flesh out all of the content, the story, add an end game, and fix any remaining bugs after that.

Its currently in a playable state, but mostly just the early game things. Currently developed for desktop browser, but mostly works in Mobile as well, minus some UI issues. The general gist of the game, if you haven't played anything similar, is that you slowly level up your jobs and skills over a lifetime, then when you die you start over, having gained permanent boosts to XP and various other things. And so you slowly improve every cycle until you reach the end game. Its mostly something you leave a tab open on in the background of your browser while you work or do other things and come back to check on and make changes and such.

Please let me know what you think, and if you find anything that looks like a bug. The game is entirely written in C# Blazor, compiled to wasm, so no javascript going on for game logic. I eventually plan to open source the game after a while, though, if you wanted to look at it.

I'm very welcome to any suggestions as well, especially regarding gameplay, the title (I'd welcome a better pun), or anything else.

Thanks!

Edit: Just FYI, i've changed the url to https://xenkogames.gitlab.io/DIDOEN/. I've also made a save-incompatible change unfortunately, so you will have to restart the next time you play. Going forward, there shouldn't be any more breaking changes to saves.

from the rights of workers

Who crushed the rail strike

of oppressed minorities

who let roe v wade expire

protection of the environment

how many oil drilling licenses were given out in the last 4 years

access to health care and education

lol

All presidents are bad, and all advance the cruelty of the previous president. Are we still ignoring covid? are we still imprisoning people at the border?

The year long path to migration back to lemmy started because I was annoyed that the page refreshed randomly on mobile view and it annoyed me enough to start poking around and get involved with the dev team.

authoritarian version of the left

All political ideologies are authoritarian. People who don't acknowledge this are just liberals who grew up in the west and assume everything that happens is natural, and not something forced upon them.

basically just like the far-right, just on the opposite side

I mean, all politics is about advocating for your positions..? thats the point of doing politics. Our positions are obviously what differentiate us from conservatives/liberals. Hexbear tends to be a bit more acidic about politics because most of us have been abused in some way by the current global order under neoliberalism.

This is more a dunk on me than anything. I hate reddit.
