How would you even know what ties a person has when the problem is government level security. Besides, Russia doesn’t exactly work on government payrolls anyway, it’s more about working in subsidiary companies owned by the oligarchs who are able to skirt the law effectively becoming the government in the process. It’s totally foreign to Western style government, there is nothing like it in the world

My nerves were dead in that tooth. They died before the appointment date. All the pain from the toothache disappeared. The doctor did the root canal without anesthesia and i didn’t feel a thing. Also because i went to a specialist it was far more professional than a cavity at my main doctor. Two thumbs up

Gulf hurricanes can do this, and they can become some of the strongest hurricanes very quickly. One or two of the massive storms in 2005 were gulf hurricanes

Far more likely this is being prepared by Russians as they retreat in Kursk and blamed on Ukraine just in case any Russian civilians get hit. We know for a fact that Russia booby traps civilian areas which is a war crime. There have been zero cases of Ukraine doing this. So if a booby trap exists it should be assumed Russian.

It could have easily been worse closer to the pandemic when shipping was already fucked. So now is actually a good time!

As was designed by the people who actually wrote those laws, the lobbyists. More profitable cars to sell as America moves farther and farther away from reality with car prices.

Can you test. paint.net for me

I’m on Ubuntu which is supposed to be at the least nerdy. Still hella nerdy, I just want to make memes and play games lol

Yeah that part’s a confusing mess. I moved to Linux on my gaming PC a year ago and have been pleasantly surprised multiple times but not with installers!

It’s just an opinion post, i phased it as such.

I don’t even think his nukes work anymore tbh. They had some sort of arming/testing last year and we heard literally nothing from it. No test runs no trials no success stories.

Many games launch with improper implementations, causing problems. Is not denuvos fault but it is one more thing to go wrong

Resources used for implementing denuvo and funds for ongoing support take away from the game development itself creating the possibility of less of a game. Denuvo is a subscription, so companies have to keep paying for it. Now they have to charge more for DLC to recover those costs. In both situations, the gamers suffer more than the companies.

DRM in general means you can’t own that thing. Steam is easily cracked if steam went out of business but firaxis or denuvo? If they go under without patching the game then it’s dead forever.

I don’t know if anyone has done a study on denuvos effect on game sales, but there have been many studies on piracy itself that show not only does piracy not steal sales, it helps promote good games through word of mouth and the demo->purchase pipeline where users want online features after trying the game. Bad games don’t get any boost but i think civ7 is safe there.

It’s my limit too lol. The expansion goes too far in openness

Yeah I used to mod Street fighter until yesterday. Niche communities still have good moderation teams but the generic bullshit subreddits are all going to be whack jobs.

Reddit just banned me, a moderator, for fighting bigotry just because one of my responses to bigotry looks like bigotry itself in a vacuum. The rest of the mod team is appealing for me but this could be the last straw.

I do 5x more mod actions than the second place mod so the community right now is headed to the dump.

You mean like every other company on the face of the planet? Seems to work out just fine.

Does it sound like GPT?

I like variety even in black tea, so twinnings is the most by volume in my kitchen

Just a default install of 365 and the only thing that popped up on the screen was teams. It was a separate uninstaller, which was nice I guess? But you have to dig through the 30 language un installers for 365 to find it.
