Capitalism and fascism
  • Same. I always wondered how ideas like giving what you can, loving thy neighbour, and forgiveness to the extreme somehow results in Supply Side Jesus, "Protestant work ethic", jail time for addictions, "law and order" politics, etc..

    These people have strayed so far from the teachings and I'm not sure how they can claim to follow them and then blame homeless people for being homeless.

  • How to set up local home video game streaming with two routers?
  • Connect the internet connection directly to the router, then connect the router to the wall ports. If it doesn't have enough ports, connect the router to a TP-Link switch, and then the switch to the wall ports.

    Wall port 3 only connects to one device (PC) so no further action needed.

    Wall port 1 connects to 2 or more devices, so connect the wall port to a TP-Link switch and then from there to your Nintendo Switch docks and the Pi

    After that unless you've done some weird configuration your gear will all be on the same subnet. You may want to manually assign the PC's IP address to make it easier to use streaming, but that's not mandatory.

  • Biden says it’s ‘time to outlaw’ AR-15 after Trump assassination attempt
  • This is a strange angle because the UK does not have notably higher levels of knife ownership but has a disproportionately high level of stabbings.

    I think the idea that the cause of gun violence is guns is just flawed. People need a reason to commit violence, they don't just do it for fun.

  • Valve runs its massive PC gaming ecosystem with only about 350 employees
  • They also offer the Steam multiplayer backend, workshop, and Steam's social system which is becoming enticing again given Discord's latest behaviour.

    GOG's gimmick is no DRM, Itch.io has the cheapest self-publishing costs, and Epic has... well I'm not sure really, but the other two have their place, but it's no coincidence Steam is the biggest.

  • Biden says it’s ‘time to outlaw’ AR-15 after Trump assassination attempt
  • AR15 weapons have been used (and continue to be used damn near weekly) in mass shootings that has killed hundreds of children.

    Calling this out because I do not believe the evidence supports this. Please provide evidence for this claim.

  • Looking for games that feel like a summer adventure
  • I think you might like Superliminal or Hardspace Shipbreaker.

    I'm less sure about the following but still wanted to suggest them:

    • Dinkum (it's like Animal Crossing but in Australia)
    • Astroneer (pretty chill exploration and mining game)
    • Roots of Pacha (a more story-focused Harvest Moon like game)
  • How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids in the US to be poor readers
  • While the origins of the “three cueing” method may have been well intentioned I’m guessing lobbying and kickbacks are what’s keeping it in schools, not it’s effectiveness.

    There is also the fact that the resistance to classic phonics in the USA developed as an anti-Bush stance during the 2000s. People thought they were taking a progressive stance against his family's conservative ideas about reading by adopting the cueing methods.

    Turns out his family's passionate attack against cueing was actually completely justified even by the science of the time, let alone what we know now.

    Bush is not a good guy but partisanship has ruined multiple generations of Americans' ability to read, and this cueing bullshit has been leaking into other countries too.
