Bulletins and News Discussion from June 24th to June 30th, 2024 - Waiting for War - COTW: Lebanon
  • Diehard Democrat supporters should accuse Biden's critics of being "gerontophobic" because mental and physical deterioration are a natural process that the president has no control over.

  • Korean Lenin & Marx
  • DPRK has some really nice music. I suspect we only have access to a fraction of it from youtube uploads. This chill instrumental based on "Bellows" (a song about killing landlords) also came up in my recommendations https://yewtu.be/watch?v=9ZWIWgqvKmw

  • not today CIA
  • Wouldn't be surprising if they got hardware backdoors in a bunch of the common semiconductors. Who could find out if Intel Management Engine or AMD equivalent was doing something sus. If I were the CIA/NSA I'd definitely be thinking of ways to repeat and surpass the Crypto AG success story.

  • Old farts of Hexbear, is there something about younger people that you don't get? [no punching down!]
  • You made me realize I haven't really interacted with anyone between 16-30 in a long time.

    My nephew is into fortnite and roblox. In my day we played more competitively oriented games like quake or counter strike (I'm young enough that those were a thing) and I don't get the appeal of the newer games.

  • What is your favourite game with native Linux port?
  • Since no one mentioned XCOM 2 I'll pick that. For some reason it only lets me play it with War of the Chosen expansion, though, and it's very difficult. But I have fun getting my squad wiped because I'm masochist like that.

  • What is your favourite game with native Linux port?
  • I just wish they'd add some more achievements

  • Fucking mice got into my rice and beans
  • The mice are now uniting with the bugs in their struggle against the food hoarder

  • This community note is fuckin wild.
  • I heard that the terms of the embargo are also deliberately vague, so it's hard to know for sure whether your cargo would be allowed or considered sanction breaking. What company would want to roll the dice with US authorities every delivery?

  • Ran into my first mukade in Japan
  • Check your futon before tucking in if you stay somewhere in the countryside. Those bastards like comfy as much as we do!

  • Hell world
  • I think the almighty algorithm has decided that videos with some kind of reaction face in the thumbnail are to be prioritized

  • 79°F "Heat Wave"
  • I heard they had villages in the mountains of India where they'd go to avoid the worst of the heat.

  • I'm planning on finally getting a Gaming PC but I mainly have two questions
  • You probably need to buy front intake fans for the chassi as those aren't included. In that price class there's phanteks p400a, lian li lancool 214 or 216, fractal meshify c, that have all done well in tests and have some included fans.

  • Fallout NV is broken on Windows with current AMD GPU drivers , but runs OOTB on Linux

    I found it funny that I've been tinkering with mods and settings, unsuccessfully trying to get the game to run at all on Windows, but then it started up right away on Epic Games Store through Lutris. Now I just gotta figure out how to cap the frame rate. e: found an fps limiter on nexus mods, now everything works perfectly!

    Previously I had a similar experience where Far Cry 1 wouldn't run on any Windows newer than XP, but worked perfectly on Linux.

    AITA?

    I like to push boundaries and challenge people's prejudice every now and then. So I walked into the reception at work today, climbed a table, pulled down my pants, and took a huge dump on it. Somebody contacted security, who refused to hear me out and forcibly removed me from the premises.

    People are up in arms about my "disgusting behavior" but they have yet to offer a SINGLE logical argument for why they think what I did was wrong. "It's unsanitary" Not if you don't touch the poop. Are you some kind of poop toucher? "It's offensive" that's your subjective opinion, hardly grounds to fire me. "People can't work like this, they are distracted by the smell" lady how prude do you have to be to pretend to never have been to a bathroom? It's a natural scent, you should be used to it.

    Even HR couldn't come up with anything rational to say, they just told me not to come back to the office. The fact that everyone got so emotional about the whole thing must mean that I'm doing something right! Right?
