As an American, I agree that more places should see America as a threat instead of an ally. Since the unhinged masses managed to elect a narcissist as president who will do "insert whatever baffling or dangerous thing" for payment/tribute.

I mostly have problems with the Discover Store not letting me download themes, it will crash out hard! I haven't noticed many more issues outside of that on KDE 6.4.

Promoting a petition that Lemmy as a whole unites against Lemmy.ml might get some traction building. I could only hope that if it succeeded, the mass defederation would begin in earnest.

Yeah, I've only gotten grumbles in response too...This is a serious issue, nobody can simply ignore reality and get away with it.

Highly accurate, but, even if you fix him...An update will break him, as Arch Linux moves fast as hell!

It's time to mass defederate from Lemmy.ml, like Hexbear, they need to be isolated in their own bubble.

I feel that you need to gently, but firmly, state your feelings on this matter to him. Reassure him that you don't want him to completely stop playing games, just that you would enjoy having one on one time with him for at least a few hours a day. As part of a relationship, is reinforcing that connection which was initially formed by dating, and building upon it. To me, his fixation of gaming screams escapism...As it is easier to avoid dealing with discomfort than to face it head-on (I speak from experience on that matter). He's not a bad dude, like you said, he is fighting (or avoiding) serious internal struggles.

Microsoft is literally scorching earth in their Xbox Gaming Division...Gotta chase those short term profits, I guess. 😡

I am aware of their lack of majority and inability to filibuster a reconciliation bill. While these actions seem useful, it is merely born of desperation. Regardless, these are at least steps that can be taken to minimize the massive oncoming harm.

There is a reason behind this lack of majority though: they've failed to energize voters, they've let the cult of personality Trump win over reason. They've lost seats because of a lack of attention, and complacency. If they hadn't, we'd be in a very different situation right now.

The few nominees that had a chance to keep Democrats in control of vital offices, were either sidelined or actively fought against, Zohran Kwame Mamdani is a recent example of a candidate for a Mayoral position that the DNC pit a controversial sex pest Andrew Cuomo against...Even dusting off Bill Clinton to back Andrew, but at least Zohran is still in the running, ATM. I can only hope young candidates like him can help shift the political landscape for the better in the future. If America can endure, at least.

Yeah, they are enabling this hostile takeover of government by not actively fighting against it. Even voting yes for some harmful legislation as the good little accelerationists they are, for donor daddies whispering in their ears.

ROFL Democrats are pretty useless these days...I've been calling my representatives, sending letters, and generally being more politically involved to make sure this terrible reconciliation bill dies in a fire. I hope to oust the republicans who represent Kansas too. They are so cursed and incompetent, spineless and weak in the face of donor daddies telling them what to do.

Oh no, this game is going to bomb so freaking hard...I can't wait for the shitstorm that is going to go down over this!
