They do of course. If you're in battle ground states they matter a TON, and they matter for everyone in local elections.

OpenTTD pretty sick tho

And the Avatar

May I say on behalf of a lot of the US: wtf. Vote to end

Same with ads. Never could figure out why they did anything.

If you want to look good, you either have to look gay or homeless

I saw a lovely bumper sticker on a Tesla the other day "I bought this before we knew Elon was crazy"

Left one is coherent, has to be written by someone else

1000s of things. I save everything I want to show my wife later, which is usually 20/day. Today, the last 10 are spicy Crowdstrike memes :D

SpekTrek is pretty old, but is a walking / exploration game.

Is this that dinosaur statue roadside attraction thing in LA? Those mountains and palms definitely look correct, and I remember seeing a dinosaur sculpture thing outside town in GTAV. Maybe I've been playing too much Geoguessr lately.

Changing the voting system would do a lot. First Past the Post sort of locks in a 2 party only matchup, and if we move to a better system (ranked choice, star, etc), third party candidates would be a real option and we could start to make those changes you want. As always, it starts local, some places are doing it already, we just need to keep expanding.

Your memes brought me much happiness. Especially that one 2 days ago about the straw, which was able to disturb my entire friend group.

This is a cool one. Floating point issues affecting mechanics in an interesting way. Nice. Wonder if this is seen in MCC.

Dune 2 popcorn buckets at the same time

"Your kid may already be..." is a pretty standard fear mongering start, right?

Nice article, cool company

That's it! Wing Commander!

Yeah I remember the specific clock speed thing! I had a game that I loved on a friend's computer and didn't get to play it much. Some sort of space sim / combat game. Years later I had my own much more powerful machine and was hyped to check it out. Installed via dosbox or whatever, loaded it up, and it ran at fucking 10x speed! It took seconds to walk around a city and the combat was completely unplayable. So sad but also pretty funny. No idea why they attached the FPS directly to the hardware. If you want an easier game, just get a worse computer apparently.
