  • The codebase is old, like mostly procedural PHP. It's got a long history of security issues, and is just a pain to work with. And it's run by a megalomaniac who doesn't seem to understand what running an open source project is about.

  • There's probably stuff they could do, but not the filibuster. I mean, they could use the filibuster on every other thing in the senate, and they definitely should do that. I'm definitely not interested in making excuses for them.

    They definitely do have leverage that they're not using.

  • How? It's in the house now. The senate isn't doing anything. Typically the house comes up with a bill, the senate comes up with a slightly different bill, then in reconciliation they work out a compromise and vote on that.

  • Yeah, he thinks of everything in terms of real estate value. Like the way he talked about Gaza, as if the people of Gaza are incapable of building stuff themselves if they hadn't been under a blockade for almost a century.

  • Nobody will care about whose fault it is because Republican voters get their news from partisan media. If they're told it's the Democrats' fault, they'll believe it. A simpler message has a better chance of breaking through: "Republicans have a majority everywhere and still shut down the government because they can't govern."

    If you get involved at all with their games, you're just starting a back and forth about specific amendments that will just make things so murky even people that follow the news won't even understand by the end.

    If you are going to go with amendments, just have simple demands that are universally popular (stuff like: fire Musk, stop the tariffs, ...).

  • The filibuster conveniently doesn't apply to budget reconciliation and appointments, the only 2 things the Republicans actually care about. They should've always pushed to get rid of it, because the Republican agenda has always been both economic, and stacking the courts in order to enable the executive to ignore Congress.

  • They could've started with anti cheat on the server side first. Characters were teleporting, money was appearing out of thin air, people were invulnerable, etc. Basic shit that doesn't need any client side changes.

    And yeah, being able to run your own servers would be preferable.

  • Not the Onion @lemmy.ml
