Would you be excited if the government started buying a lot of eggs?

How about if it started buying a bunch of gas? Or houses?

Then why the fuck would you be excited it's buying cryptocurrency?

I don't care about the LibreWolf team and their feelings about right-wingers and Bryan Lunduke. LibreWolf is one of the least bad browsers out right now. Until something like LadyBird becomes fully usable, this is the best we got.

If it truly bothers you, use Ungoogled-Chromium.

Bryan Lunduke has been banned from the Librewolf Matrix server. His crime ? Being Bryan Lunduke:

They're also starting to ban people who even mention Lunduke:

Such welcoming people.

My game is Linux-first. The Windows port comes later.

gamedev 

Added a delay after the player sprite disappears and before the level restarts. I kind of cheated by just copying the same transparent frame like 6 times just to give the illusion that there is a delay between the death animation finishing and the level restart, but the animation is still going up until the restart of the level.

I mean, I could just use a Windows VM, but I would do it if and only if I can get the latest version of MinGW and SFML running on Windows 7 (the last tolerable version of Windows, IMO).

I hate cross-compiling. MinGW for Linux is confusing as fuck. If anyone wants to play my game on Windows, then they can compile it from source (and maybe send me an EXE just so I can redistribute it).

gamedev 

Tried to make the "death whirl" animation in sync with the sound effect. Now, I realized that I need two delays. One before the player starts spinning (just to allow the mind to process that they got hit) and one for after the player disappears.

Finally, someone else agrees with me that more free (as in freedom) software developers should charge for their builds.

Finally found a "death whirl" sound effect for when the player gets killed. It took me forever to find one because I didn't know what it was called. Obviously it's not in sync because it's a stock sound effect that I just downloaded, but I plan to sync it in due time.

Watching West euros smash their tendie plate and move hosting out of the USA into countries that really hate their own people because we're not funding a forever war is not what I had on my mind for 2025 yet here we are

I don't think age is the issue. I started looking at 9/11 truth before I was 23. I've met people in their 60s that are pro-trans/wokists and people in their 20s who think the current era is all insane.

The thing is, every true independent media source (thinking James Corbett, Whitney Webb, hell even No Agenda and CIA sponsored Alex Jones) have been covering USAID (or foreign aid in general) for decades.

I am weary of people just going on Joe Rogan with his carefully curated and produced list of guests. Back in December, everyone was going on about Mike Benz's interview, and everything about him just screamed "spook."

Even with USAID going away, you know the CIA will still get the money it needs for its programs through the State Department now. They might be fine with this just to cut out the fat. It's smoke and mirrors to engage the populist base, while also further fracturing the American mind.

> I would like to talk to you on the other side of the ocean.

> blocks nicecrew.digital

either you want to talk to americans / want them to hear you/ are willing to do so or you aren't, and you're content living in a eumonia filter bubble where you're protected from americans and their racisms

pick one

saying you want to talk to americans while blocking them from communicating with you because they do things as american pie as 'racism' is ridiculous.

@schmaker @eriner First off, no, most Americans did not elect Trump because most of them do not vote. And calling Trump a felon sets the tone for a conversation that turns into people calling each other retarded. Nelson Mandela was a convicted felon; it means nothing. Trump is lying when he says Ukraine started the war.

The US was the initial aggressor in this war and the only reason there is a war now. The US war on Russia through Ukraine is primarily aimed at looting and subjugating Europe, cutting them off from Russian energy to starve them to death. "It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal."

You should be angry with the country who blew up Nord Stream and you should want them out of Europe permanently, regardless of who the actor playing the President is.
