The US has a left lean (“left” by US standards). What I mean by that is it’s not an even split. The majority of Americans lean left. The only reasons the right has any power in this country is due to the first past the post voting system, gerrymandering, voter suppression, and the electoral college.

Either you’re lying, or you’re being pedantic. I mean fiat currency in general.

Uhuh…would you take Monero if it could never be exchanged for dollars?
- Comment on Seriously good cold-climate heat pumps are headed to the US market 2 weeks ago:
I’m in PA and it doesn’t get nearly as cold here, of course. We got mini splits in 2022 that can do -33f, I think. No resistive backup for us.
Mini splits are so, so nice.

Valve have done scummy things, too. But I’m not going to pretend that somehow they’re both equally bad.

I’m never giving the company that made billions exploiting the FOMO of children my money. I won’t install the launcher. I don’t didn’t need their free games.
I don’t didn’t care if they can throw their massive pile of Fortnite cash around to give developers more money.

- Comment on this was my favorite game! 2 months ago:
My grandmother had the “turbo” version of #2 for some reason. It’s the only one I’ve ever played, but I loved it. The actual gameplay wasn’t great, but the graphics, sounds, and story all blew me away at that time. It was so futuristic and cool.
- Comment on What were your (now retro, but not at the time) gaming wow moments 2 months ago:
That game was so futuristic. It was nuts.
Back then, the camera didn’t feel as shitty as it does today. It was all so fresh and new.
- Comment on If you bought a 3D printer for personal use, was it worth it? 2 months ago:
Buying a 3d printer and learning CAD is unlocking a super power. You can put something from your brain into the real world. It’s great for hyper specific parts.
- Comment on Good game soundtracks? 3 months ago:
Same artist who did the music for TUNIC. While its soundtrack isn’t great to listen to alone in my opinion, it is phenomenal in game. To the point where watching the trailer gives me goosebumps.
Also, I emailed the artist once to ask permission to use the Dustforce soundtrack in a YouTube video I was making. They gave me permission and I sent the video to them when it was posted and they said very nice things about it.

The music and sound effects are amazing.

That’s interesting. I didn’t know that. I tried working with Waydroid once on Bazzite on an older desktop of mine and didn’t get terribly far with it.

The Deck is what have me the confidence to move to Linux on desktop. I wouldn’t have switched if not for Valve.

Literally the definition of the word.
- Comment on How’s the progress of (insert retro game title) going? 4 months ago:
seems like every update of Proton is nerve wracking.
If a version update to Proton breaks your game, you can always specify the previous version.

I got an N100 with the same specs for $160. It’s so good.
- Comment on This farming sim sits at the bottom of your screen while you kid yourself you're doing other things 6 months ago:
The idea of this bothers me. It makes me think of the dual videos on Tiktok that people watch because their attention spans have been so blown out by overstimulation that regular videos bore them.
And that’s probably hypocritical of me because I often play a game on one monitor and a video on the other.
I dunno.
- Comment on Dwarf Fortress - Adventure Mode Beta Trailer 6 months ago:
It’s very different. I’ve only just created a party and watched some tutorials, but I have a general idea of what it’s going for, and it’s nearly the polar opposite of fortress mode.
