Gavin Newsom is a transphobic Zionist piece of shit and him being against Trump doesn’t mean you need to stan him.

Great software if you want a lean-back console experience with your PC: can create a virtual display with your TV’s native resolution + HDR and stream over ethernet. Add Steam Big Picture mode and it’s like you have a Steam Console github.com/ClassicOldSo...

Samferdselsminister Jon-Ivar Nygård mener at det ikke er mye poeng i å investere i langdistansetog i Norge, siden han forventer at fly på ett eller annet magisk vis blir utslippsfrie om 15 år. Idiot. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...

At this point, I can’t understand why any international traveller would visit the US

Even if you think you’re not at risk, you could get caught in the crossfire of ICE gunning people down in residential streets or have masked gunmen storm your restaurant and haul kitchen staff away as you eat lunch

Turns out it is actually possible for a politician to do things, if they want to
Zohran just went out and fixed the Williamsburg Bridge bike entrance. Just did it. No faffing, no nonsense. Bam. Fixed.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.

This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.

It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.

Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

the way Valve treats developers isn't always great, but man as far as quasi-monopolies go you really do gotta hand it to em

like, if Epic had Steam's market position, somehow I don't think Tim would be leveraging it for things like "what if we forced everyone to make Linux gaming.....good......?"!!
