General strike. Shutdown everything. Economic pain is the only thing that hurts the broligarchy.

A general strike would be far more effective and safer than people showing up to mass facial recognition scanning event.

You seem to foget that Gates had zero interest in philanthropy until he started taking massive flack for not doing any, back in the 90s, when he was the world’s richest person.

So you just bury your head in the sand until the unpleasant facts that don’t agree with your personal world view go away?

IANAL, I just read legal blogs from time to time, so take this as the simplest of bumbling blanket explanations. Without details of the case it’s hard to say. IP law gets insanely complex. It’s also very likely that this animator was told the case was not actionable by an attorney some years ago, but then talked to a someone else with a different legal opinion more recently. Then there’s the cost of litigation, which will be extreme given this is Disney, so it probably took time to get the money together for a retainer, and financial risk of a loss and counter-suit makes it risky.

Sorry, I should have specified good attorneys, not assclowns who are working double time to get disbarred and censured. 🤣

Attorneys don’t just file a suit because their client said so: they generally need to be shown there’s an actionable case with a chance if winning, and in this case it probably took a lot of time and information gathering to get to that point. Also, it’s Disney, which probably makes most attorneys extra cautious.

That’s a tough question and depends a lot on what substance(s) is being used. If its an opiate, have your friend take a look at ibogaine therapy; it’s seen some really amazing results for some people, who generally report that it feels like it resets something in their brain and they no longer have any desire for their preferred substance. Obviously, milage will vary, but its definitely worth looking at.

I am beyond excited! Keen has been tooling up the engine and adding the most popular mods’ features, like real water physics, higher max object speed, but most importantly, they’re making the grid system unified, so you can build large and small grid size pieces together seamlessly.

Space Engineers. I can just build and build and build, and the community seems to always have a few new interesting mods whenever I’m looking to start a new world.

I couldn’t make it through the first 5 minutes of the remake of The Crow. Absolutely awful.

Wonderwoman 1984 was also pretty cringe and I didn’t make it more than 10 minutes.

Not for you, but it’s an issue if you’re using Mac Minis as unattended service devices that are hard mounted and will occasionally need to be reset by hand (think kiosks and AV systems in conference room).

Yeah no. When that mouse dies in the middle of a project call, and you have to scramble to open your laptop lid to get to the track pad, and that flips your display layout while you’re sharing screen: no thanks, I’ll stick with any other mouse.

And vote against their own interests, like prop 33 (rent control).

Interesting to watch the numbers change as ballots continue to be counted. There’s still a huge amount of uncounted mail-in ballots.

That’s a good strategy to ensure you die: a mooses torso is already higher than the hood of a lot of SUVs, so you’re taking a moose to the face.

CoffeeStain has fixed some crazy Satisfactory saves that went all the way back to update 2 from 2019.

Trader Joe’s changed their stance during the pandemic and are aggressively fighting unionization. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trader-joes-attorney-nlrb-unconstitutional_n_65b41e7ae4b014b873b11cc2 https://inthesetimes.com/article/trader-joes-union-organizing-fight

Soon, GOG and all other storefronts will state that you’re purchasing a temporary digital license for any game who’s publisher uses an EULA that states you don’t own the game. This is due to the recently signed California law that forces storefronts to be transparent about the publishers EULA.

Seriously! With the way Ubisoft has been operating lately, I won’t be surprised if they cut off the end of the campaign story and put it behind a $40 DLC.

This is in response to the new California law that forces stores to clearly disclose that the customer is buying a temporary license.
