I assume then that the next election won’t be pretty for them

Pretty much every political commentator at this point is confident that they're going to be wiped out and lose worse than they ever have in history. So yeah, not pretty.

That said it's their own fault, Sunak was supposed to bring things around, but he's basically done nothing and just sat there being useless while the right wing nationalist element of his own party essentially destroy their election chances. It's bizarre watching them go at it, it's like they were sent from the future with a mission to ensure the conservative party is never politically electable ever again.

Perhaps we could try and go a week without someone in government committing a crime.

There was a story about them deleting accounts with games, followed by articles saying it was only for accounts with no games.

So it was a non-story back then as well?

People going mad about this and it's complete non-issue.

Perhaps it's time for the US air force to do some kind of intelligence review on its generals. You know, perhaps they should make sure that they have some.

Is Texas now competing to be more or diseutopian than North Korea because it's certainly seems like that appears to be the goal.

But I still need the website to actually download the game my point is if GOG went down I would be in exactly the same situationm I have no way to get another copy of the game.

So it isn't any more convenient to me than Steam

I can only base this on my own government but I'd say about only a small fraction of the right wing party are full on Nazi's, the rest are just awful people but they're not evil. Although it is hard to tell because quite a lot in the greedy, which from a distance can't look the same.

I'm too lazy to block the individual /c/. Personal Instance-level blocking can't come soon enough.

A lot of the apps for Lemmy do actually have this feature. It's one of the reasons I used them and not the website.

Yeah, Lemmy has address to this by just having an incredibly glitchy algorithm (look at this post with five up votes from four months ago, it deserves to be on the front page). No one can game it because no one understands it.

People throw around the word too much, there are actual Nazis around and we need to reserve the term just for their special brand of evil. Otherwise the phrase gets so watered down as to essentially become meaningless.

Otherwise they are just rightwing dipshits.

 

Could there please be an option somewhere in the setting to turn off the thing where it shows you your comment after you post it.

All it does is it makes me lose my place in the thread.

What a lot of the Reddit apps used to do is just highlight (as in with a colour) your comment you've just made so you know it's been submitted, but otherwise don't change to a different view.

Obviously make it an option, I can see why some people may find it useful
