Hehe

Fingering Dan and the Module Nudes.

I mean if you wanna dive that deep, it started when some religious extremists got kicked out of England for being too extremist (for the british empire!) and moved to the new world, killing the people who previously lived there.

… But up until 2008 shit more or less held together? Not pretending 'murica was ever good, but it was the 2008 recession that caused its structure, however fucky it had been from first principles, to really break down.

Peep their profile, it’s full of this shit. I’m assuming “Chan user, possibly teenaged”

You’ve picked a pretty dumb hill to die on mate.

The estimated population of natives in the 1500s when the portuguese arrived was 2 million (according to IBGE), it was 302k by 1998 (also according to IBGE), and that’s AFTER decades of recovery efforts.

Edit: Jesus christ on a stick your profile.

Retro-style: DUSK, Prodeus, Serious Sam

More modern: Wolfenstein - The New Colossus, Doom 2016, BioShock 1 and 2

Spooky, “ghost train”: Doom³

Exploration oriented: Metroid Prime (and 4 is coming up!), Powerslave Exhumed

Yes and no.

Without Trump fucking shit up on a government level (the Supreme Court in particular), there would probably be less scary shit happening on that end. Would have slowed things down.

But the radicalisation of the Americans began before 2016. Trump is a symptom, not a cause. The disease started spreading as early as 2008. The recession, the damp squib that was the Occupy Wall Street event was the inception of many political movements, both far left AND far right.

That’s the thing people don’t realise. Even if Donald J. Trump didn’t exist, the underlying social tensions mean that inevitably someone would show up to galvanise far right sentiments, and the political estabilishment would have boosted them, whoever they were, because when the common folk are getting angry about their lot, then to the people actually in charge, a fascist dictatorship is preferrable to the alternative.

Further funnies:

The alien playing the weird saxophone?

Their species?

Yeah it’s called ‘bith’

There is a Bith playing Jizz at the Star Wars Cantina.

Can’t wait for Americans becoming refugees on other countries en masse and getting a taste of the bitter medicine that was the way they treated foreign migrants for decades.

You called?

I have a list of people allowed to diss Brazil

It does not include Anglos or Europeans.

Fellow Latin Americans and African folk can go crazy.

We also really fucked Paraguay up.

Weird Al stole my waifu

And I’m okay with that.

Heh.
This was one of the few episodes of Mythbusters I actually watched. You are correct, but I must commit to the bit, so:

gently puts USB drive containing Linux on center of table, then silently walks away

Unciv - this one’s especially good on mobile

FreeDoom

Sonic Robo Blast 2 if fangames are acceptable

Human beings may not be perfect but a computer program with language synthesis is hardly the answer to the world’s problems

I find myself appreciating Deus Ex more and more with the years…

… But also utterly unable to replay it because it’s too close to home now.

See, I thought it might have been my tablets being cheap things.

But messing around with that borrowed iPad (possibly a Pro, the person who lent me it was filthy rich and likes premium stuff) made me go “… This is like, a high quality laptop but worse in every way?”

The screen was drop-dead gorgeous, and it was clearly a powerful (if locked down, cuz Apple) device – but it felt like everything I tried to do on the device was in some major way a compromise to accomodate for a less-than-ideal form factor.

In my case it’s more that I get car/airsick very easily – So when I’m out and about, I won’t be watching media on a portable screen. At most listening to music or an audio-book.

And if I’m in like. A hotel. Most of them (at least here in my country) have SmartTVs that will accept broadcasting from my phone. :P

As for note-taking, I can see the appeal but refer to my comment about typing in a Tablet being uniquely awful.
