I too would like this feature but I don’t want to block those user’s comments on other communities.

Does this setting only block the instance’s posts from showing on All, or does it block everything from that instance, similar to defederating?

Dr. Zoidberg also has mail order degrees in murderology and murderonomy

Buddhists don’t also wear tottenkopf (death’s head) on their shirts. These are Nazis. If their flag is misprinted then they are stupid Nazis

Oh thank god. I thought you were going to say “released Sk8er Boi” and I was about to have one of those moments where I feel extremely old. I’ve been having a lot of those lately…

In Montana, I believe, write-ins for president are always invalid

One of our two parties wins more when more people vote.

Therefore, the other party must oppose voting by the largest groups, such as young people and people who live in cities.

The less popular party also has disproportionate control of government policy.

Which is to say, they oppose democracy itself. It is only a question of degree

I saw a comic about this once (xkcd, probably?) and going by the scene in the movie, where Legolas has human sized eyes, they deduced that Middle Earth must have an exotic atmosphere

Mainly because if your ears get hot any sweat can cause the earbuds to fall out. They at least don’t fall on the floor (just into the headphone can) but it’s not as nice as having regular wireless headphones.

Pro-tip: if you plan to use them for more that about 3 hours at a time, get a second pair of earbuds. That way when the first one’s battery dies you can just swap them out while it recharges

If you don’t want to spend a lot of money and are willing to put up with jank you can do what I do: get a pair of hearing protection headphones from the hardware store.

Just regular noise isolating cans for like mowing lawns or shooting guns. You can find a decent pair for less than $35. Look for a high NRR value (Noise Reduction Rating).

Then just wear earbuds underneath them. I use Samsung Galaxy Buds, but any wireless earbuds will do.

It’s a bit janky but it didn’t cost me $200

Pistol Whip has an auto aim mechanic. You can disable it in the challenge settings and see how impractical it actually is to dual wield handguns

Yes, the game supports split screen local co-op on consoles and even on PC.

You can play through the first 2/3rds of the game in split screen with no trouble. However, in my experience it gets unstable in act 3 on Xbox Series X (probably also on PS5). Presumably it is something to do with the limited memory on consoles, so if your PC has great specs it should work there.

They are planning an update due next month which is supposed to address the crashing, but it remains to be seen.

I think currently the best experience on consoles is to have two copies of the game on separate consoles.

The patch 7 update also will supposedly add cross platform multiplayer, so you could have one player on console and one on PC, since you probably don’t have two Xboxes, but again, it remains to be seen

When I got LASIK I wasn’t allowed to wear contacts for a few weeks before the surgery. I bought the cheapest pair of glasses from Zenni. I had new glasses for $17 + $10 shipping.

If I had to do it again I would have my IPD measured by a proper optometrist first. I just guessed at it and got ones a little too small, so they had a kind of fisheye effect.

Still, for <$30 it was a great bargain

I had one of those too, until it was stolen.

Back in my day your entire music collection could be stolen in an instant.

…up hill, both ways!

Good news! RCV already solves that problem

If Bernie didn’t get enough votes to win, the votes for him go to the voters’ second choice candidate (Biden – few voters would want Bernie-Trump). If those combined votes are enough for him to win, then Biden wins in that state. In RCV, Trump would only win if people actually preferred him over Biden

That is why they call it “an invasion”

Two ads before the video starts, which was a movie trailer.

They briefly mentioned government cheese on the post. The story of “government cheese” is actually quite interesting itself. There’s an Omnibus podcast episode about it https://www.omnibusproject.com/200
