    I've been trying. Unfortunately, people in power seem totally unresponsive to the needs of the people. Don't know what the optimal solution for that is, but historically, the solution is usually something you're not allowed to encourage on social media.

    Yep. I'll keep my Dualsense, thank you very much. The trackpad is invaluable for things like weapon selection, and having the gyro default to on means I don't have to take my hands off the face buttons to aim. Also, flick stick rules.

    There's your problem. They've been pretty well known in the console marketplace for a long time, and have peripherals dating back to the Super Nintendo.

    No. 538 gave Trump the best chances out of any model, which Nate was criticized heavily for. 1-in-3 chances, which is what Trump had in 2016, are still pretty likely.

    I'd love how they plan to regulate people buying their own batteries and wiring them up to their own bikes.

    Sounds extreme, but that's the exact same arguments that they use against regulating firearms.

    Hmm. Self-organizing projects whose workers work on them entirely based on their need to be done, and the results freely distributed to anyone who wants a copy?

    Literal fascism, obviously.

    What is there to think about? I complain about people who support Soviet-style dictatorships having full control over online platforms moderating exactly as one would expect, and I get told by Random Guy On The Internet #368,452 that I'm apparently a hypocrite because wanting action to be taken to stop authoritarians from controlling social networks makes me the real authoritarian or something. All this to "suit my agenda", which in this case is wanting to be able to say that authoritarians are bad.

    God forbid I find arguments like that incoherent and unworthy of taking seriously.

    He was added as a mod pretty much for shits and giggles, he didn't do any actual moderation. Still, he allowed the sub and many others like it, so very much the second option.
