Ah yes, because Trump supporters are so usually shown in a good light in the media.
Indeed. And it proved that the government aren't as powerful as they want you to think.
900 billion defence budget but they can't even lock down a building.
A p2p system as the new norm for half the internet and online communication would be the dream.
I believe there's a similar project to it called Aether but I've not looked into enough detail to know whether it's any good.
A couple hundred largely unarmed and unorganized people breached and occupied one of the most secure and well-defended buildings on Earth in the space of an hour. And in doing so they sent the entire US congress running for the hills.
Imagine what a few thousand armed and pissed off people could do, because I guarantee that the folks in Washington are imagining that right now.
Unless you want to set up a walled server, or even better a peer-to-peer hosting system then that's the price you pay.
People air their grievances with the government by destroying each other's neighborhoods and livelihoods: A-OK.
People air their grievances with the government by peacefully occupying the Capitol building: EVIL, RIOT, COUP.
Based on how congress are reacting, they're scared shitless.
Ultimately a couple hundred unarmed and barely organized people captured and occupied one of most secure and heavily guarded buildings on Earth in the space of about an hour. Sends quite the message I'd say.
The US Capitol is one of the most secure and guarded buildings in the world. And protestors have it completely surrounded and breached. Your government is not as powerful and infallible as our masters want you to believe.
I said repeatedly that if armed conservatives decided to mobilise they'll be a whole hell of a lot more precise than the usual hamfisted city burning that the left gets up to.
They are currently on the House floor.
The UK gave up its seats in the EU parliament a year ago.
But 99% of the complaints of "red tape" and "bureaucracy" are just complaints that we're not in the EU any more and so need to treat them like a foreign entity. Which is the same as the rest of the world.
At this point I'm pretty sure that both major parties know which way the wind is blowing on brexit, given that opposing it decapitated Labour, Lib Dems, and the DUP last election.
Plus even if Boris' deal has flaws it's still significantly better than May's deal.
You missed the best bit of his website.
Federal law prevents hunters from hunting migratory game birds with more than three shells in their shotgun. That means our federal law does more to protect ducks than children.
To be honest I doubt the UK has the ships to completely fill all of its waters from January anyway.
Not seen it all so am not an authority but it seems to me that the UK got pretty much everything it asked for with the occasional caveat like a transition period.
All the "red tape" media talking points are mostly referring to the same red tape that any two countries which aren't both in the EU have to go through to interact. So it'll surprise noone that having left the EU, the UK now has to interact with it like any other country.
For anyone looking here is a link to the review in question
WAB is my go-to guy for game reviews. He's honest and doesn't take any SocJus bullshit.
This is it, for me. If you're going to design a game where you're meant to be able to do what you please and kill whoever you please, there shouldn't be protected classes who are invulnerable for no reason. As though the game is saying that murdering a random bystander is okay but a journalist is a step too far.
It's bad enough that plot-necessary characters are often protected, but randoms who are too 'morally good' to be killed is just wrong.
Looks nice.
I don't know if it's a CSS thing or a general site thing but I've only just noticed it now. When clicking the quote marks to expand a text post (without leaving the front page) my cursor gets locked in place until the animation of the post opening finishes.
There are a handful of games which come out which are good so I tend to pay attention to those. Mostly from Devs who aren't based in the modern leftie west but there are always pleasant exceptions.
Movies and TV this isn't the year for anyway, but I've not really had things to watch for a couple of years now anyway. Really once you get out of the cycle of needing to consume the content shortly after it's released, and into the habit of not caring about spoilers and just waiting a month for people you trust on the matter to give their opinion then the current hellscape becomes much easier to navigate and seek out the few good examples.
I'm not saying trust either. I'm all for waiting for more information to come out before delcaring it true or false based on a he said, she said situation.
My bad on the misread I'll take full credit for that. Having gone over it properly this time I might hazard that public facing social media accounts in the political sphere are usually more of a PR exercise than a social media one.
I'm not saying either way on this matter, merely that it's a trap to assume that anything out there in the world can be diluted into a fact before all the details emerge.
I don't know if just pointing to a date and one word in a tweet necessarily debunks the whole thing. That's not my opinion on Cuomo talking, merely the fact that we know next to nothing based on these tweets.
This whole antifa infiltrator narrative is pure conspiracy theory.
As for consequences - Congress was already going to punish people for the crime of supporting Trump anyway. If a couple hundred people can claim the capitol then a hundred thousand can make DC fall.
