Today, I'd say a good 1/4 of our customers were buying things for a donation drive to Florida. I had more $100+ purchases today than ever and I've worked here for like 6 years. The donation was being done by an independent business here with one location and one owner. Just a guy with family in Florida that wanted to send help. He's going to be driving down there to get is dispersed with the help of other community members. Apparently, people were even donating things like generators from Home Depot.
How absurd is it that we have to pay taxes to stupid wars that lead to countless amounts of death and destruction, not to mention the fallout from those things, when we have so many people on our own soil that are in need of assistance? Then we have to spend even more money to give all that we can to the ones who deserve it the most.
@picandor curious to hear your thoughts on this video. asmongold put up a clip of him watching it today but it's a year old.

it's crazy to me that i don't hear more people out there agreeing and talking about this sort of thing. i want to believe that the majority of LGBT folks are against manipulating children and things of that ilk but i just don't hear enough people talk about it. even "allies" seem to either be all for it or just sweep it under the rug. considering """child liberation""" is in the very foundations of the movement, my default reaction to seeing anything gay is usually disgust until proven otherwise and i wish it didn't have to be that way.
@TornadoOfTerror @D-Droid I'm planning on buying one as soon as possible and just keeping it offline because I know someone it there is going to find a hack for it
@TornadoOfTerror @D-Droid I know a lot of people who have financed pre builts and parts. Or they save up a little while got it. For a lot of them it's also that all their friends have PCs and they want to be able to play all these pc-only games with them.
@TornadoOfTerror @D-Droid I don't really think that's true. Everyone I know who used to be a console gamer back on ps4 and earlier is a PC gamer now. Most people don't really care about whatever Intel and Nvidia are doing, they just care that they have good games to play and a better platform to play them on. This is even exemplified in your post because Nintendo is one of the shittiest game companies period... They just make good games. As long as the switch 2 isn't shit, it'll sell very well regardless of how much negative attention Nintendo attracts to itself.
@hfaust @kilostere it feels like less time because graphics have not come a long way since then at all. Juxtaposed to the difference between something like uncharted 1 and the last of us which are on the same console 6 years apart, the hzd "remaster" looks nearly identical to the original.
@anemone TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT THAT WE RUN
THE HUNTER BECOMES WHAT IT HUNTS
@NotAWeeb 1. Absolutely 0 marketing
2. Reconstructed in a different (worse) engine instead of just porting it
3. Changing the identity of the game
4. Major technical issues and glitches
5. Still costs $60
This thing was a bad idea from day 1. Who the hell greenlit this? I'd maybe think about picking it up for like $30 if it was just a straight port. They changed the lighting, removed the fixed camera, changed character motivations, and botched the launch of the game with some serious issues surrounding performance and soft locks. The only way to play the original experience on PC will be via emulation.
@doctorsex @ColPeatGuano @KonataWagner @LostShakerOfSalt @DEERBLOOD @judgedread @SaltWraith they might just not be engaged enough. We'd play flash games before they got banned on school computers when I was a kid. When we got Chromebooks in high school I would look up funny gifs and show them to my friends across the room. A little bit before my time you had students getting games on their calculators to play during class. You have to make kids WANT to learn.
@LukeAlmighty I use it to follow artists that don't use fedi or Newgrounds (more artists should use Newgrounds). I also follow MVG lol.
