Kinda funny that we’re looking at this on lemmy, 90% of us are on our phones browsing while doing random things.

It looks cool, but smartphones, good or bad, fill the void of riding the bus, waiting 5 mins for your next meeting, waiting for your partner to get ready in “5 more minutes”. I’m ADHD and this helps me just unwind.

I know it’s not for everyone, but it’s silly that this is being pitched as revolutionary.

The Mississippi one is crazy. I voted in that ballot initiative when I lived there. It was for medical marijuana with very lax laws. But then the mayor of the richest county in the state took it to court. The ballot initiative even got the required votes in all the old districts too, planning for this, but the Supreme Court of MS is as dumb as a bag of rocks. Did the state repeal the voter ID law or the new flag that were both passed the same way? Hell no!

So glad I left that ass-backwards state.

Mummy Joe is a treasure and must be protected.

They’re going to court so I assume there is proof.

This dev was trying to sell his own game on his own site. A single player game. No steam keys. Just a download. And got threatened by valve to stop or be removed from steam. Illegal since that’s NOT in the contract he signed.

They have the proof in the claim, but I don’t know if it’s public yet.

I agree that steam should enforce STEAM CODE sales to be the same price, but this is just a download of the game. I hope steam just fucked yo here and misunderstood; otherwise, it’s completely anticompetitive and is illegal based on the contract the developer signed from valve.

I’ve got voyager too! Also tagging them as anti trans with the trans baby blue color.

Many have gone to several sporting events because it’s a great way to show you’re “one of the people”.

But Trump is the most attended for all sporting events because he wants to be loved.

A very quick google search shows 2nd place could’ve been Nixon or W Bush because they both loved sports.

Meanwhile, useful cats are just cats doing cat things, like chasing mice and rodents in the house or in a barn for barn cats, as they require much less training since it’s their natural instinct and much less maintenance since some don’t crave human attention constantly (for barn cats).

As someone who likes working with higher level languages, I never understood the pass by reference or even referencing different pointers. It never stuck out to me as useful in what I want software to do. It’s too close to hardware.
