Nah, worse. They only have official servers, no dedicated option, and there were only three up at one point. I don’t know if any of that’s changed, but since I own the originals, I just refunded it and will play those when I need my fix.

Nair, not hair.

Also, this is the most Reddit I have seen come from Lemmy, which simultaneously entertains and worries me.

Learning how to edit code during runtime to remove any DRM or remote shutdown code would be the first thing I do even before getting into my new steelsuit.

They got their priorities right. Can’t help a friend/SO in need if you’re hangry and weak from lack of food.

See what I mean? Much easier to just call you a grade-school dropout and call it a day.

I don’t tend to engage with people whose only rebuttal is to a strawman, because it’s not going to do a damn thing. Takes more effort to refute the bullshit people like that will fling than an argument with them on the internet is worth, so I usually just point and laugh.

That being said, allow me to give you a more accurate representation of my argument; because I’m feeling generous.

There are five major wars America participated in that tend to be prevalent in my generation’s psyche. These, listed chronologically, are: the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War 2, the Vietnam War, and the War on Terror.

Of these, two of them dealt heavily with genocide. World War 2 because we were simultaneously avenging one and preventing its completion, and Vietnam because the overwhelming attitude of the US’ commanding officers in that war was, “Kill all Commies,” and the majority saw no difference between a Communist and your average Vietnamese person.

Therefore: in my generation’s psyche, our country is one and one in terms of genocides stopped and genocides attempted.

In addition, the United States is one of the main sponsors of Israel as a country, and is basically the entire reason it hasn’t been wiped out by all of its neighbors, who hate it and everyone in it. They all realise that to attack Israel would cause the US to retaliate and basically wipe them off the map. This gives the US a certain level of responsibility for what Israel has decided to do whilst under that protection, since it wouldn’t have happened otherwise.

Further: the UN’s call for a ceasefire in that conflict has been vetoed by the United States. So basically that makes the US responsible for allowing the bloodshed to continue.

Therefore: yeah, the United States is, in fact, responsible for Israel’s continuing genocide attempt by vetoing the call for ceasefire and not doing anything tangible to stop the bloodshed committed by a country it has protected from its inception to today.

Overall: we are one and one for genocide v not-genocide, and it’s not looking good.

This is a hilariously misleading summary of American history.

America has only been in 2 conflicts and is responsible for genocide carried out by a sovereign state

Fucking lmao

Oh, hello strawman argument! How are you doing?

Yeah, our ancestors stopped genocide during World War 2. And then other ancestors tried to engage in genocide against Vietnam. And now we’re only just starting to attempt to convince Israel to not do genocide. So the record currently stands 1-1, with the current one being the tiebreaker.

ARCANE!!!

I’m over here thinking: Oh, League of Legends fans are all overreacting over getting something that’s probably decent at best…

My friend, let me tell you, they were not overreacting.

Fucking billions! ONE billion would be enough to never have to work again if you live lavishly! And this irresponsible, pathetic narcissist is having a tantrum because number won’t go up. I actually want to be alone in a room with him tied to a wall and a set of supplies that would make the CIA go pale. Same with every other sociopathic manchild that’s killing us all because ”Durr, number go up,”

You see, and then they go and do shit like that.

Why can’t the villains just be moustache-twirlingly evil and the heroes be radiantly pure, like in the old Saturday morning cartoons? It would make the works a whole lot easier.

You know… I think naming a spaceship (or any ship, really) after a man who took twenty years to return from his voyage might not be the best idea to avoid jinxing it.

“Age is just a number” should not be used to justify people needing to work to survive at 70!

Somebody start the revolution. It’s time to eat the fucking rich. I’ll get the plates.

Same here, mate. You got anything you need to get off your chest to a bunch of strangers on the internet?

I clicked it out of curiosity, once. It just took me to Google.

Damn, you’d really think Israeli citizens such as Netanyahu and the rest of Israel’s government would hesitate to use Hitler and the Third Reich as a role model, but here we are.

I can’t save money because of my home and car loans. Hell, I wouldn’t be able to eat if it weren’t for my parents helping me out with cooking cheap meals and borrowing money, which I always feel like shit for doing. My job tires me out enough that I can’t work up the energy to fight past my ADHD paralysis to job hunt for one that pays more. I can’t get a raise because of said ADHD paralysis fucking with my productivity. I also can’t work up the energy to clean up and repair enough that I could rent my place out and move back in with my parents. And selling the house is off the table—my parents are the only ones that are close enough to my work for me to be able to make it without a three hour drive, and they’ve got a full house atm.

I was rejected for a refinance that would’ve bought me $400 a month worth of breathing room. And the energy credit is running out soon, so I’m about to start being $200-300 in the hole.

I can’t work up the energy to go out and meet someone who could be my significant other, even if that were something I had any skill or confidence in doing.

Hell, I look at my mates and they’ve got their shit on better lock than I do in some ways. Brian and Marcus have rented their house out and moved back in with their parents, ended up making about $400 a month in profit. Nate doesn’t even have a job, but he has a wife (which is really confusing, considering how he looks), and their combined Centrelink payments let them save up for big purchases they may need to make. Even Carol has a partner and a job at a casino making double what I do. (Names changed for privacy)

BUT!

I have gone through too much, survived too much to let all the effort of doing so go to waste. Even if it ends up being useless in the end, I’m going to take every opportunity I can force myself to take in order to get myself into a better place. No way in hell I’m letting the world push me into a corner without giving it a black eye on the way.

Genocide, for one.

Oh, Israel leadership says they’re only going after Hamas, but they’ve also just been gunning down anyone in the streets who aren’t wearing their colours (demonstrated with a few Americans and Australians being shot), bombing hospitals, and opening up evacuation corridors only to bomb them when they get filled up. They’ve also cut off food and water and internet, so even the civilians who aren’t in the immediate line of fire are suffering and dying.

I dunno, sounds like genocide to me!
