  1. Ohio lets the counties ban solar farms at their discretion. I live in one of the more conservative redneck counties in the state, big solar farm going in less than a quarter mile away.
  2. It'll get worse because every medium to large organization is a mix of new cloud based shit and stuff written in the 80s. They're all worked by your mom who will definitely click that funny link that the CEO personally sent her.
  3. I'm kinda down for it honestly. Not dumbass trying to make twitter a video platform, Levine making Bioshock over and over.
  4. I can't think of a game that's disappeared that I've bought. I feel like I played a Codename Gordon sidescroller on Steam when Half Life 2 came out that doesn't seem to be part of my library anymore.
  5. They got some... loofa recommendations or something? Is there anyone who really misses either one of them? Like I feel like all of Bill O'Reilly's biggest fans are probably getting on a little in the years and have probably forgotten and are enjoying the comedic stylings of Gutfeld! And I don't know anyone who was ever like "Fuck yeah, gotta catch Chris Cuomo tonight".
  6. Spec Ops: The Line permanently removed from Steam and other digital stores - The Verge WWW.THEVERGE.COM End of the (Spec Ops) line. Edit: it was on GoG yesterday, gone from there now as well...
  7. There's not a whole lot the Ohio legislature can do about abortion. It's why they showed up for a special little session to guarantee trans kids can't play sports or get medical care, they had to stamp their little feet for something.
  8. It’s harder to address people’s real concerns when bigots get to platform bigoted speech via “just asking questions”
  9. Makes fun of Joe Biden and connects with his favorite clown rap group in one speech. He does represent a certain chunk of America for sure
  10. There are shitloads of these services for men with low self esteem too, just gotta get those T levels up bro. I feel like this disinformation cat is really out of the bag, real pandora's box deal. Before the worst shady medical advice that people took in was Dr Oz on Oprah. Now you get these million views per video health influencers telling you to go get some shots from someone who totally went to the Starbucks near Cedars Sinai every day. Social media tried to stamp out COVID disinformation, but that was pretty narrow, going after the rest of medical disinformation seems kind of tough.
  11. That's been happening with a number of the "left behind by the left" types. It made me think of Star Wars Episode 3 where Anakin misjudged the situation, murdered Mace Windu, and then went on to murdering children, because in for a penny in for a pound I guess. The irritating ones are the ones who do the whole "I'm still a liberal, I don't like pollution and believe in single payer" before launching into some bigoted old timey shit.
  12. Well that's a bummer, the sex positivity movement thing led to some good times in my early 30s, this younger generation is going to be insufferable when they hit 40. The teaching the dems a lesson crowd in 2016 were pretty bad. I feel like we're starting to see shades of it again and this time they're up against a known fascist. Maybe they'll chill out once the campaigns get into full swing.
  13. I personally just keep clear of Israel and Palestine stuff in general. There is also nothing on this earth that will make me ever give a shit about what the administration of Harvard does. I'll admit sometimes on social issues I can be a little behind other people sometimes, but I like to think I get there at some point. What kills me about this post-left or whatever you want to call it that these people like Dore, Taibbi, and others is how it seems to be the time the slippery slope isn't just a fallacy. Because man it seems like a lot of them are just "I was progressive, then the left left me behind and now I really don't care for Mexicans and LGBTQ people" edit: Also I think a lot of it are people who are just getting old. Like the comedians who seem angry that a set that killed in a theater tour in 2003 isn't funny now.
  14. I remember reading a while back that TSMC had shit pay and steep work requirements that put a lot of qualified candidates off. Like the pay wasn't great, they had to spend a few months in Taiwan in training, that their work culture is a bit brutal. So with the business growing in the US qualified candidates will just take jobs elsewhere. Whenever a company complains about the shortage of qualified candidates it's almost always the shortage of qualified candidates that will put up with them as an employer. I just got shot down for a new job after going through months of interviews and finally being told by the recruiter that I'm more or less the only candidate they're considering and to expect an offer after some bureaucratic issues are sorted. Got called last week and told that an executive decided to adjust the requirements to require this specific experience that has a learning curve of about 2 hours for someone with the experience I have, that I was no longer being considered for that reason. I got on LinkedIn and saw that a temp agency had posted the same description I'd just gone through the process for at $20,000 less a year on 6 month contract.
  15. Given the title of the thread I'm surprised this hasn't come back up Trump team fires back at claims that ex-president ‘smells’ WWW.INDEPENDENT.CO.UK Former president’s body odor was called into question by a former congressman The "fire back" wasn't saying Trump smells lovely by the way, it was more or less "Yeah? Well Kinzinger is an asshole!".
  16. So how long until someone with a “BTC4LF” vanity plate has to be winched out of a tangled riverbank?
  17. I never even saw the point in the whole discussion, what was the end game? Did republicans want to give Walgreens managers the right to gun down shoplifters? Was it simply so politicians could bitch about liberal run cities… while ignoring the high crime small towns that still lock up the soap. Also for the record if I have to get an employee to unlock a cabinet so I can get deodorant, I shop somewhere else.
