I'd say less that right wing ideology cares about enshitification one way or the other, but what they do care about... is the ability to not be sensored for hate speech. With less mods, and the remaining mods having worse tools.

Right, but the point is, it may very well be that they were difficult to catch without going into harm on the other side (IE in say 9/11's case having the bar set so high that they'd have grounded air traffic for 15 false positives before actually stopping the attack). Likewise say JFK or MLK's assassinations, also probably infeasible, having to widen perimeter or advance security on quite a large distance from where they were traveling and speaking.

In epstiens case though, it seems like a high profile national news level criminal like himself. could have very easily been sent to a much better guarded prison, not taken off suicide watch etc... IE it seems like all the red flags were there that he would have killed himself if he could... and he was left in a situation where doing so was not difficult, and the cost of ensuring he didn't kill himself would have been pretty low. It's one dude that's expected to stay in captivity, on a case that the whole world was watching. Not really that infeasible to have a 24/7 rotation that has one person dedicated to him at all times.

Well I mean the biggest thing that would be the ultimate ideal would be anything that can maximize the ability to bring existing unity projects over to godot. IE minimal refactoring needed.

Big thing is not just getting people to start their new projects, but what about those who have spent 3+ years mastering their game, only to have the rug pulled out from under them when it was 80% of the way to release worthy.

To me I think majority of conspiracy murder... still may have merit, without actually lifting a finger.

IMO I don't think the real question is "did the government establish a hit on JFK, MLK, The twin towers etc...".

but rather, did someone in power get a note saying "this is likely to happen and here's how to prevent it", and it get burried.

Passwords you can remember is a problem if you have multiple sites.

While I love XKCDs HorseBatteryStaplerOkay! strategy... that works well for 4-5 passwords, if you have 20+ passwords you'll pretty much wind up re-using, and if it turns out one of the 20 sites had garbage protection and gets fully hacked, any sites you used the same is also going to be vulnerable.

Personally still gotta say go with keepass or bitwarden (selfhosted if possible).

Umm... pirating windows is your recomended solution?

Look don't get me wrong I could say it's if anything more cost effective for simply the dev's to say "OK anyone who has more than 1 hour of linux play time prior to this date qualifies for a refund".

Of which, most likely is a handful of people so easy work.

Screw privacy sensitivity that's a moot point. Installing windows isn't a minor tweak to a computer .First of all the suggested method is technically breaking the law. Secondly you are talking minimum adding in a windows partition, so an extra 50 GB storage on top of the amount the game takes. Comprimizes to the boot loader on the system, in which there's a high chance of messing up an existing install.

Exactly why IMO more game dev's really need to be looking into godot. After hearing about gamemaker changing their terms, my thought was the writing is on the wall. It's impossible to predict when the terms are going to change. I can't imagine spending hundreds of hours working on a major project without knowing for certain that at the end of the day you know what the rules are going to be on licensing the engine.

My thoughts exactly, this actually screams awesome fashion lol

Unfortunately for the most part, capitalism is. The companies that do exploit their workers and their customers make more money, Corporations that make more money than their competition then get in positions to do shady shit to kill their competitors. In the end of course there's plenty of shitty jobs that treat their employees like garbage to jump between, and very few jobs that actually treat their workers like humans.

or more accurately users just have no grasp of what things come from. No shortage of times in tech support where I've heard things like "Yes I know the internet is down, I'm not trying to go to the internet I'm trying to go to facebook".

The "as moderate of a democrat as one can be and still have a chance of winning. That's the part that always drives me crazy and wonders what would happen if we ran say a full on AoC/Sanders democrat in some of those areas. IE they are working to appeal to the people that won't vote for them under any circumstance, a Manchin couldn't win because putting a D next to the name is an automatic loss for the majority of voters.

The key there IMO is the only way to win is to actually inspire the people that don't vote to come out. The people that are not even slightly impressed with the republicans. Maybe there aren't any there, or maybe there are tons that just haven't had a candidate to vote for.

Now as far as supporting the less crazy than MTG, honestly I don't see a good reason to. Would you rather a composed polite person vote to gut healthcare, or a total psycho that embarases everyone to vote to gut healthcare. At the end of the day her policies are the same as most moderate republicans, with the exception of getting on the news and saying the quiet parts of the plan on speaker. IMO if the seat is going to vote against anything we want, and for everything we don't want no matter what... then just ignore it and focus on winning seats that will. There's 434 other places to focus our attention on,
