My crackpot theory is that we're 10 years away from e-ink displays becoming the new hot thing. The clarity of looking at something that isn't backlit is great. If they can solve refresh rate and resolution, we're there.
I think you're probably right. I still think it's important to point out that this lawsuit, even if successful, won't take down Valve. Steam and CS2 will still be around. If it is successful, it might force other platforms to change how they handle lootboxes too. Singling out Valve won't mean that steam is down and we all need to use the Epic store. The flaws of this lawsuit and it's motivations don't mean that we need to excuse Valves bad behavior. You aren't doing that here but many people feel the need to pick sides. We can call out the lawsuit for being largely a political stunt and call out Valve for profiting off of child gambling.
Punching holes in poison ivy leaves sounds like a good way to get a rash.
When your hair is short, you can wash it with Gatorade and it'll look acceptable. The longer it is, the more you have to maintain it. I'm a guy who grew his hair out.
It's a blue-ringed octopus, which has one of the most potent poisons known. The person handling it could easily die.
nothing happens other than some news stories.
Well that's not true. The flotillas are forcing Israel to very publicly show that they don't allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. We just had a wave of countries recognize Palestine as a state. She has helped destroy Israel's perceptions worldwide. This is like saying Rosa Parks should've just not gotten on the bus. Getting arrested is the point of the protest.
Plank length: usually 10ft for 2x4s. Though, you can get them cut to length.
No paint because you're injection molding body panels? Sounds good.
No stamping? How are you getting away with that? Are they just outsourcing the stamping for frame parts? There's no way this thing doesn't require stamped frame components.
Tbh, this feels like vaporware. I'll believe it when I see them actually being delivered.
Japan simply is xenophobic. I lived there for 2 years. That's just a fact.
Tbh, Lemmy is much more difficult to get into. I wouldn't be here if I wasn't somewhat dogmatically against reddit's shenanigans. My buddy who uses the official app doesn't really care about any of this stuff. Even I feel a bit alienated by Lemmy because it feels so dominated by tech workers. Your average meme-enjoyer is going to see multiple instances, buggy apps, none of their favorite communities and they're going to bounce off it. I like Lemmy but we need to be realistic about how palatable it is.
Everyone agrees rape is bad. But there are plenty of people with a very narrow definition of rape. They think rape is only when someone forces themselves against a kicking and screaming victim. Teaching young boys not to rape means teaching them about consent, how to confirm it, knowing it can be revoked at any time. It means calling out your friend's bad behavior. Also, we can still teach girls to defend themselves too. Nobody is saying we shouldn't do that. Just that it shouldn't be considered the main solution. That's a victim-blaming mindset that minimizes all of the social norms enabling rape and sexual violence.
