Impossible challenge: name a scenario in which the socialists' warnings to the public haven't come true.

Also about the last part, the neoliberal wing of the Democratic party (basically the entire thing) has been paid off by billionaires, and is therefore incompatible with leftist idiology. When one side says "we want single payer healthcare" and the other says "we believe in the need for the profit motive in the healthcare industry and we will block any and all attempts at diminishing the profits of health insurance corporations," then those two sides have inherently incompatible idiologies and compromise is impossible.

Also about the tone policing, I believe that was a literal psyop by the neoliberal wing and billionaires in order to push people away from left wing (socialist) idiology. See: the CIA's Simple Sabotage Field Manual, which perfectly describes this method of sabotaging (in this case) a political movement. There's also the side effect of people who buy into tone policing doing the work for them and not focusing on economic issues.

In the Vanity Fair article, Ivana Trump told a friend that her husband's cousin, John Walter "clicks his heels and says, 'Heil Hitler," when visiting Trump's office.

This was an article written in 2015.

Of course, this must mean that the minimum wage will increase by an equal percentage, right?

Right?

They covered the victims' faces so the cowards maybe won't have to live with what they've done.

Y'know, "love" and "generosity."

It's also totally possible to survive on a cross for three days and for someone to take you down while you're unconscious and put you in a cave.

Kind of gross and threatening even as an adult TBH. But yeah, definitely worse as a child.

Ever notice how Republicans all at once and very rapidly stopped talking about paper ballots?

I write it in plaintext then email it to myself. For my email password, I write that down on a sticky note next to my monitor with my webcam pointing towards it with Skype and Zoom always running so I can look at it when I'm not at home. I always make sure to turn 2FA off as well, since that gets annoying and isn't very convenient.

I might choose to mirror the webcam stream to a public RTMP stream later, but not sure yet, since I think that might open up some security holes.

Threads federation? (self.sdfpubnix)

What is SDF's opinion on pre-emptive deferation with Threads?

I know SDF Chatter hasn't defedded with any instance, but there is a serious risk of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish if we federate with Threads.

 

Could be TV, Movies, Video games, etc.

 

Looking for a DP to HDMI 2.1 that supports 4k120 with Freesync and the various HDR standards. Saw the PS196 was announced some while back, but can't find any converters that implement it.

Anyone know where I can find a converter, or even just the chip itself so I can build my own?

Basically what the title says. I've only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I'm going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

I have an OG Model F (pre IBM XT, but the same standard) and used to have a Pro Micro-based Soarer's converter before it died on me.

I'm looking for a replacement that can be both wired (either USB, PS/2, or AT) and wireless (either Bluetooth or via dongle). Soarer-style macros would be a nice-to-have, especially for the missing F11, F12, and Meta keys.

Does anything like that exist?

 

Was wondering if anyone had experience with Frankensteining together different parts from different controllers, and how I could go about it cleanly.

I'm looking to have some kind of modern controller (preferably a DualSense), but with an actually good DPad, specifically the Sega Saturn Mk2 controller. Wondering if I should bother with trying to modify the shell, or if I should just custom design a new shell to fit the DPad. I feel like 3D printing would result in much lower quality compared to injection molded plastic, so not 100% sure about that idea.

Been looking for a search engine that isn't plauged with SEO garbage every time I look for anything. Been using DDG for quite a long time now, and I'm starting to get dissatisfied with results. It seems like more and more results are just companies trying to make their way to the top of the search results instead of anything organic. It's even worse when I look for any kind of service or product.

Looking for as close to 100% organic results as possible.

I've been using Real Debrid for about a year now, but there're a couple of things making me want to switch.

I like to share my account with a couple of friends. Real Debrid gave me a warning about banning my account if I use it concurrently with someone else.

Real Debrid no longer accepts emails from AnonAddy or Tutanota. I would much rather not have to give out any real contact info.

Looking for a comparable service that caches torrents from anyome who downloads it and provides a link premiumizing service. I would also like to be able to give out direct links for the purposes of using Syncplay.

Whatever I use must be compatible with Torrentio inside of Stremio.
