This happened to me before. They unbanned and rebanned me like twice, the IT guy emailing back was very sure I was using "scripts" of some kind that were harming the website, somehow. Ultimately I just stopped visiting KYM.

Christians, through history, loved stoning anyone who did not agree with them or follow their beliefs. I think it would be ironic if they ended up on the other end of this.

But truthfully, I think just permanently removing their ability to have any effect on the world we live in, by their speech, money, action, position, etc, as quickly as humanly possible is far more important than just carrying out old fashioned punishments for catharsis. We all just need them gone.

There's always too many people when you ask a person like this about the population, but never enough people when you ask the same person the same question but include skin color in the question. F everyone who whines about population.

It's Alberta and Saskatchewan, so I'm not very surprised.

I played the beta weekend, I liked it. I want to play it again once it's out in June, although there were annoying parts. The sun gives you heat stroke or something as a status meter, and it makes you dehydrate faster until you get to shade. With how often you're out doing stuff in the sun, it was kind of annoying, because I just had to keep going on blood harvesting trips through NPC camps, to proccess it at my base to keep my water stocked. But in the full game with better tech unlocked, I'm sure it ends up being fine.

A lot of people also got pissed at the sandworm because if you get eaten, all your stuff is destroyed with no way to recover it (unlike a normal death where you can loot your corpse), and sometimes it can feel abrupt when they breach. That said, I never got eaten ny the sandworm in my ~15 hours of play during the beta.

That isn't really the point though, I just saw another post of a German multinational company cutting their diversity measures because of Trump's anti-DEI executive orders and threats. And pollivierre, if he hadn't lost so hard, was basically promising to suck up hard to Trump, presumably starting with the lgbt stuff and ending with the annexation. If every country could live in a bubble and completely shut out all the influence of the others, you'd be right, but that's not how it works.

Worse isn't really the appropriate word. It's more dated mechanically than Skyrim, but it also has some interesting game mechanics to that ended up cut from Skyrim, like spellcrafting. In terms of story, it's got one of the most interesting DLCs the series has had to date, Shivering Isles, and a lot of other decent questlines in the base game and other DLC areas. Worst parts of the remaster are probably just poor optimization for UE5, so it can often run like crap on PC, and of course, all the existing design issues and bugs that Oblivion already had from its original iteration, because the original engine and game logic is still all there and what was principally changed was the UI, the graphics renderer, and some quality of life stuff here and there.

People? Read? Never.

I don't think so, but if one isn't already familiar, I don't know how one can figure out what the phrases mean, without looking them up or being told.

I switched to Mint a few weeks ago. There was no particular reason at that time, just all the general discontent with Microsoft built up since they released Windows 8, but things like this make me glad I did. Also glad that I've mostly not had any issues with the switch. Proton and wine are amazing.

As an American, this is good slang. I hate it here.
