Barring a violent revolt, there’s really no acceptable way to deny a transition of power after the electorate has voted for it, even when the president-elect is clearly this malicious.

I think itch.io might allow game purchases without any account, depending in the game, but even getting drm-free games is almost always going to require some kind of account somewhere. There’s always the “high seas”, but that’s not something everyone is comfortable with.

GOG is probably your best option for completely DRM free games, and fwiw, a lot of Steam games don’t require you to use Steam to launch them. A fairly thorough list is kept here: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/The_big_list_of_DRM-free_games_on_Steam

You’re literally the only one here cheering.

If we’re trying to avoid WWIII, yes. It sucks and is unfair, but the responsible choice isn’t always the fair choice.

*Jeez y’all, I’m not saying to just roll over and die here. There are other ways to respond that aren’t “send an international force of soldiers into war, all but guaranteeing worldwide war between nuclear powers”. There’s a necessary calculus here that’s just a few steps above grade school level retribution.

They think they get to wipe their hands of it because they “didn’t participate”, refusing to concede that said choice still counts as their participation. Through ignorance, cruelty, and/or privilege, they’ll blame everyone else for the state of the world while refusing to do their part.

Not to say people shouldn’t leave Twitter, but like…this isn’t going to devastate him. He’s in the inner circle. Twitter could burn down and I doubt he would even notice.

Camacho did try to kill him, to be accurate.

Just pointing it out. Lots of people probably would’ve said the same about FB before. Who knows wtf is going to happen in the next few years.

Worth considering that if Twitter ever ends up on the fediverse, the same will apply to any instance it federates with. Lemmy may be great because it’s not corporate, but its functionality necessitates that it be one of the least private versions of social media available.

Some determitive nominalism.

He’s right, but not for the reason he thinks. AAAs continuing to prove indies are the best place to find interesting games.

Bummer :/

Surprisingly relevant to me as yesterday I ran myself over with my tank in Factorio for the first time ever XD

If it’s a site you use often, right-click and “block element” is your friend. Might be able to sus out a universal block as well if you dig around the different elements there.

The notion that he cares about anyone other than himself is laughable. He has nothing to gain from the party if he’s not in office anymore, and he’ll burn it all down before he gets dragged out.

10 million more american voters voted for donald trump this time than did the last time

This absolutely untrue. He got less votes than he did last time.

2020 - 74,223,975

2024 - 74,120,203

If the rest of those turned their crimes into social media hustles, the cops would have a much easier time.

It was luck that last time he had no fucking clue what he was doing. He still doesn’t, but this time he’s listening to people that see how useful he is in their goals to upend the entire country.

Care to list some of the others? I could use some contextualization, cause this feels pretty fucking bad.
