None of the young Oxford and Cambridge grads who write everything for The Economist have ever known someone who does manual labor for a living.

80s and 90s era wargame art was awesome. It has glam, but also a hand drawn grittyness.

One of the biggest moments for me or realizing how propagandized westerners are is when I discovered how much improvement happened in the USSR and China under the "bad" leaders. These facts are not in dispute or being surpressed, but the western public is being effectively kept ignorant of them.

No way, I was taught that private equity brings reforms to distressed organizations resulting in higher efficiency and better outcomes for customers. Surely the invisible had will correct this obvious failure of the market porky-point

This just looks like a normal water jug. Am I missing something?

I use the little plastic clips that come with loafs. I keep a little stash of them on top of the fridge.

Take a deep breath, and repeat after me:

It kind of makes sense now, I had the causation backwards. It's not that people write like chatgpt, it's that so much of the web's content was written this way when chatgpt was trained.

It's a combination of comfort and contrarianism.

And of course, then they immediately hide behind LGBT and women's rights when someone says "hey, that sounds a little racist"

 

I want to host some LAN parties this winter, and am looking for some Free Software Games that would be a fun time. We already play some Counterstrike and StarCraft 2, but I want to expand into some actual Free games. Windows compatibility is a must, MacOS compatibility is desirable!

The two on my radar are:

  • Hedgewars, which seems like a strong candidate. We played a ton of Worms 2 in the 90s
  • 0 A.D., since we're already fans of RTS games.

But I know there must be some wacky ones out there which would be suitable for 30 minutes of pick up play.

 

The 2040 plan is mainly an ending of single-family zoning. Anecdotally, I've seen a lot more apartments going up around the Twin Cities in the last few years. The Frey regime are neoliberal ghouls, and this is a classic YIMBY approach to tackling housing shortages. The opponents of this plan are somehow even worse, an astroturfed army of KKKarens.

Choice quote: "Residents of color already face significant barriers to home ownership, which would have been exacerbated under the plan as a result of reduced access to and availability of single family properties," said activist Nekima Levy Armstrong, a member of the plaintiffs' legal team, in a statement calling Tuesday's ruling a "major victory."

What are the Hexbear thoughts on this whole situation?
