  • Starfield on PS5 Pro is the best it's ever been, but it's still Starfield | RPG Site

  • I played it with mods that forced me to construct everything from scratch. Super-enjoyable that way; created a multi-system logistics network that moved all raw goods to a single planet, than created a massive manufacturing base. Got bored and just played Satisfactory, which is apparently all I wanted anyway. Also, Eve online is way cooler.

  • You are misinterpreting my comment, and you seem to be trying your best to antagonize. I wrote, pretty explicitly, that I don't believe in him. I don't believe in any candidate... except maybe Claudia de la Cruz. I'll repeat again: Progressive politics is more than just elections. Productive discussion - even in small forums like this - are far more useful than arguing about a candidate in an election that I would guess that none of us here can even vote in.

  • No, not at all. I'm saying that the likelihood of getting a 'progressive' candidate on a ballot is extremely unlikely. I'm also saying that 'politics' and specifically 'progressive politics' is far more than just elections. I'd contend that most 'governance' is done by unelected government workers. I'm saying that political candidates dont matter as much as us building our own communities and networks. I'm saying that arguing over which candidate would fuck us over the least is largely a waste of time. Progressive politics, in practice, should devote less time to electoralism and more time to developing their communities - government be damned.

  • Seems like this instance needs to define what 'progressive politics' are. From my perspective, US electoral methods are currently constructed in a way where 'leftist' ideas are simply not allowed to advance. Like, yes Platner is guilty of war crimes but he is the less worse candidate, so sure vote him in and then move on and do the real work of community building, organizing, unionizing, and building a powerful labor bloc that is not beholden to any political party. Elections will not save us.

  • so, anti-freedom then? I can understand not allowing proselytizing, but this reads to me like de facto anti-muslim legislation.

  • Bondi firing a reminder that even ultra-loyalists get dumped by Trump

  • ^^^ she wasn't dumped, she was saved. Now she'll get some cushy job next to noem were they just collect checks and keep furthering the construction of the american reich.

  • Enshittification: Science and Applications (published by Nature) is hit with "pooptical power"

    Jump

  • I'm not an optics expert, but I don't think that's right. Sad state of things when this gets published in a Nature-adjacent journal. Unless pooptical is a thing, in which case ... I want to know more

  • Sounds interesting. I currently pay the 5$/month for the Kagi search engine and that works great so I'm inclined to trust them on their other ventures.

  • you CAN effect change, major change. You choose not to, which is fine. But a single person can most definitely change the world.

  • Am I useful to Lemmy or not?

  • Controversial posts that get engagement are probably thought-provoking and worthy of discussion. Discussion is much more important than karmafarming. Continue!
