I might agree that the Democrats need to strip down messaging to better concentrate on winning back working class voters, but arguing that progressives are the reason the party sucks is looney. Progressives are the main group screaming about wealth inequality!

Kamala failed to convince voters that the Democrats would address the issues affecting their wallets. She mentioned some policies that I think would help, but she also said that she wouldn’t do anything different from Biden. I think that was a major disqualifier for her among voters. Biden isn’t responsible for the economic effects from the pandemic, but he was still in charge, so some people are going to blame him. Saying you’re not going to do anything different doesn’t inspire confidence.

I know that things won’t get better for the average person under Trump, but Kamala and the rest of the Democrats need a major fucking wake up call. If they want to win again, they’ll stop cozying up to billionaires and start fighting hard for the working class.

Anything that doesn’t focus on the class war is ultimately a distraction. Start winning the class war, and then the party will get strong enough to do something for everyone - including special interests.

I’ve watched this fight twice now, and yeah, it’s the best so far. Hopefully that wasn’t all Goloriolo has to show us though.

The correct unit of measure for this situation is the couric which this scale is clearly not using.

It looks similar, but no, that’s not a Steam Deck

I can’t stand to use a touch screen for anything 3D, however I can tolerate 2D gaming that way with an on-screen controller overlay. I almost never use my phones for gaming though.

I’m in South Carolina, so that wouldn’t work so well here since everyone already knows what that means. I do agree that not giving them the opening to elaborate is key.

I’ve often said that in order to redirect a conversation because I don’t like the opinion of the person I’m talking to and not because I’m actually ignorant about the subject.

This happens at work mostly, and I can’t just nuke that bridge with the person because we have to keep being able to work together. I’d like to tell them off for being ignorantly intolerant, but instead it’s more effective to just take away their enthusiasm for whatever they’re talking about. Do it enough times and they’ll eventually find someone else to bother.

All of Lemmy is a Linux help community. Okay, not c/linuxsucks, but everything else.

No, no. It’s too perilous.

Voyager has this too, and I’ve put it to great use recently.

There’s no subscription here though?

Bethesda responded to the news with a shrug, stating they plan to continue shipping games where characters randomly clip through floors anyway. "Our physics engine has evolved beyond the concept of walking," said a spokesperson while slowly sinking into their office floor.

Valve Corporation fired back by immediately filing their own patent for "not releasing games people want," with a spokesperson noting they've been perfecting this technology for over a decade.

I never argued the movies were good

I feel the same way, but the Clone Wars animated series really changed my opinion on what Lucas was going for with Anakin's fall. The movies didn't execute on the idea all that well, but when you add in the extra background the Clone Wars added, I think it made a lot more sense.

People judge him so harshly, but like, who among us hasn't slaughtered a group of children?

Fair

In most of the older, Lucas-era Star Wars games it was the same thing with lightsabers because (IIRC), they didn’t want their games to be synonymous with gore.

I know that Jedi Outcast had a cheat code that did let you dismember enemies. After typing ''devmapall'' in the console, you enter

I only ever really enjoyed using a saber in Jedi Outcast once I used that cheat, but it does feel like cheating since you become kinda OP.

So anyway, I’m sure that it makes for a better game not to have an invincible weapon that slices through everything as base equipment, but I would love for Fallen Order to have that same kind of cheat code.

he still kept getting voice-over roles

Must have been because of his rich, leathery tone*

To be clear the Democratic Party is a private organization and they can do whatever they want. It's completely within their rights to say "we need to stop Bernie Sanders" and put in action a plan to do just that.

Legally speaking, yes. Ethically, fuck no. When they admitted Bernie into the party so he could run in their primary, they created a huge chain of events that involved thousands of people and millions of dollars. It’s wrong for them to allow such a charade to go on if they have no intention of honoring their own voters.
