I emerge from the shadows....

Saw this post by xianc78 while lurking, inspired me to share my thoughts

Authoritarians are parasites, and the authright are just as parasitic as the authleft. They take over alternative and free-speech communities, subvert the culture and values of those usually-libertarian-leaning people who originally created or supported the community, and drive the community into the ground before moving on to the next host. They take advantage of people with higher ideals and integrity who create said communities with the good intention of creating a space for all to use. I've even seen some brag about this fact, in certain cases! These authrighters ironically act exactly like certain groups they hate so much.
Unfortunately, I suspect any future alternative libertarian-minded groups will have to apply Hoppe's proposal to these people and exclude them outright. Libertarians will have to gatekeep their communities, but we'll have to find some way to do it without turning into total echo chambers.

Holy FUUUUUUUCK
us dept of energy just fucking BANNED UVB and heat lamps!

What this means is that reptile owners are FUCKED. Heat lamps are required source of external heat for most reptiles. UVB is required to to keep reptiles healthy and bones growing correctly.

Y'all snake owners are gonna have to bring your snakes outside for like 4-5h a day... Rip if you live where winter exists. And windows block most UV that herps need so fucked on that end.

Okay I have been working with GameMaker again and it's weird how they went through
>one time purchase if you want to export
to
>subscription if you want to export
back to
>one time purchase if you want to export
It's kind of good now but kind of not? They dropped "GameMaker Studio 2" even though the IDE is nearly the same, just call it "GameMaker" now, and now my Pro license doesn't count for the new vanilla "GameMaker" line. Like, okay I can still use GMS2 which they last updated in November 2023, but that will be left in the dust in a few years time, just like GMS1. But nu-GameMaker isn't even a super crazy advancement like it was for GMS1.4 to GMS2, so they literally just rebranded it to get you to fucking pay again! Fucking Opera!!! Bitches!!!

Fun to fuck around in it again but I should just use Godot or learn2code for real I guess
