  • AOC can run, she will be 35 before inauguration which is what counts.

    Biden ran and lost a couple times before he made it against Trump, Warren is more progressive than most of Congress and has already endured Trumps barrages of insults and came out of the wringer intact. Berners are going to struggle to accept her, but she is a compromise candidate between the center and the left.

    Buttigieg could do with some more time perhaps, but he's aces in interviews and at least competent in debates. I'm not fond of his work history, but he's better than Biden. Young is also a bonus when you're shifting off of a candidate because they are ancient and can't reasonably do the job anymore.

    Being from Michigan I think I like Whitmer less than most of the country, but she's popular here and a recognized name in most States. I really doubt we would get Medicare for all with her, but she's at least a continuation of Biden's agenda on a way more marketable individual.

    As for Abrams she lost in a race where her opponent 'oversaw' the election. Personally I don't know if Georgia will go Blue this election, but I think she is recognized in other States and has the kind of activism experience I wish more candidates came to the table with.

    Put that against Biden, who has been quietly helping a genocide along, whose single primary win was because he made deals with his opponents to get them to drop out, and who gave a debate performance that was so bad Trump's deranged lying couldn't even hold the news cycle.

  • I literally gave you seven names in my first comment. I understand you've given up on ever making the world better, but try not to get in the way just because you're so fucking bitter.

  • Useful idiot
  • It could be as simple as Biden releasing a new report to update the one where they said "gee it looks, acts, and talks like a genocide, but we are still going to give Israel plausible deniability so we can keep sending them bombs" and firmly conclude its a genocide thus legally requiring the US to stop supplying arms.

    Like I said in my first comment, twice even, I don't want trump. So I don't give a shit what his policy would be. I know it would be horrific, that's not even a question. I think replacing Biden is more likely to save us from Trump, so trying to convince me Biden is better than Trump about foreign policy fully doesn't matter.

    You're saying Biden is the option, but clearly myself and a significant portion of other voters in swing states would like another candidate more. Biden's performance was awful, something that appears to be particularly relevant to swing state voters: https://puck.news/biden-plunges-in-swing-states-in-leaked-post-debate-poll/

    I think nominating a feeble old man in his twilight years is going to be our doom if we let it happen. There should have been a primary, Biden is unfit and his staff know it. You can plug your ears and march into fascism saying Biden is the only choice, but passing the nomination to someone who is still all there might actually turn things around.

  • Useful idiot
  • I don't want trump, I've said before that I think that his complicity in Gaza isn't only abhorrent but will lose him the election. Not exactly a stretch to then say "Oh and it turns out he is sunsetting too?" It sure seems like somebody else would be a better call to again not have trump. Give me Whitmer, Warren, Buttigieg, Duckworth, Ocasio-Cortez, Warnock, or Abrams and I'll be happy.

  • Any "undiscovered" games you think deserve more attention?
  • My recommendation is Wintermoor Tactics Club https://store.steampowered.com/app/917840/Wintermoor_Tactics_Club/

    Its a really cute and funny tactics game where you control the Tactics Club in a series of snowball fights to determine the future of the school. Each club is full of silly little jokes and the tactics got me well enough for me to replay multiple stages for a better score.

  • Navajo Nation in the US is completely radioactive from cold war era uranium operations
  • I just posted about Church Rock in a thread where people were saying the US did nuclear better. I.M.O. the #1 sign we aren't ready to be trusted with more nuclear energy is that most people don't even know how bad we've fucked it up already

  • Dead Game News: Response from the European Commission [companies shut down single player games you bought with always online DRM]
  • Homie, you can't always tell if it will be always online before you buy it. Game companies are notorious for hiding things like that and microtransactions in the pre-release versions, so many people who buy those games don't know they are always online, or believe that they are confirmed to not be. Nevermind the ones that go back and change old games to add in shitty proprietary launchers a few years after release.

  • Prosecutors say Alec Baldwin was ‘engaged in horseplay’ with gun before fatal shooting
  • I know there at least used to be gas powered airsoft guns that had minor 'recoil.' I don't know if there's anything particular about them that makes them bad for filming, maybe just the lack of real force on the shooters wrist/shoulder.

  • Capitalism is essentially alive

    I think capitalism can be understood as a living entity, a being composed of billions of smaller beings (people), essentially cells. It evolves (legally and through market innovations), has an immune response (police), and grows and reproduces itself (imperialism). The cells are independent life in their own right, but they exist almost wholely within the body of capitalism and the structure of their existence reinforces their participation in the greater whole of capitalism. All complex organisms are composites of smaller organisms and I think it makes sense to reason about capitalism and how to go about changing it or destroying it from this lens.

    What do you need to get started in Steel Path?

    Hi all,

    I'm a returning player, and I'm kind of stuck a bit in terms of progress. I have caught up on all quests and have a great wealth of frames and weapons, but I'm still struggling a fair bit every time I load into a steel path mission, or even really some particularly high level normal missions.

    I was away for essentially the entire shield gating defensive meta and the AoE weapon meta, and while I feel my modding has caught up somewhat I'm still not sure I'm particularly good at finding or making builds. My warframes feel flimsy, almost regardless of defensive buffs, and while my Kuva Chakhurr hits hard enough to put things down, its somewhat slow and unwieldy while my more responsive weapons feel like they don't put out enough damage to get the galvanized stacks rolling.

    So what I want to know from my fellow Tenno is, what do you think is required to really excel in Steel Path? Arcanes, archon shards, helminths, focus trees, weapons, incarnons, specific mods, etc. Anything you can think of that you think "I need to have this set before I toggle over to steel path"

    New Game Modes

    So during the recent player survey, BHVR floated ideas for some additional game modes. I was curious what everyone thought of them. What were your favorites or which ones do you think are really missing the mark? Do you have any other fun ideas you think they're sleeping on?

    Personally, I really like the sound of Tag, 5v5 and 2v8. 5v5 sounds really interesting and like it would be a good place to sweat a little. Tag sounds like pure chaotic fun, and 2v8 sounds like it could be cool, though I am skeptical they could balance it.

    On the other side, I feel like Giant mode sounds like a boring novelty, and I don't understand the purpose of a Hide & Seek mode where auras are revealed every couple of seconds. That sounds like a waste of time to me, but maybe I'm missing something.

    As for a mode I think they're sleeping on, I think that Hide & Seek would be more fun if Survivors goal was to cross a map without being spotted. If you get spotted you're out, and if more than one survivor makes it, then time is the tie breaker. Maybe with more than one Killer to make it even spicier.

    Also here are the ones BHVR included

    Deceivers:

    Survivors work together to complete tasks before one or more "Deceivers" can kill everyone without being discovered discovered

    Played in rounds with voting between each round

    Swapped Perspective:

    Killers play in 3rd person while survivors play in 1st person

    Zombie Tag:

    A random survivor is picked to be the Killer

    Down a player to switch roles

    Once a survivor turns into a killer they don't turn back

    Keep playing until there is only 1 survivor left

    Bumrush:

    More generators spawn on the map

    Everyone moves at double speed

    Survivors have 3 lives, from which they respawn after a 20-second death timer

    2v8:

    Hooks are removed but Cages of Atonement prevail

    Luck of the Draw:

    Start the game with randomized perks and items

    Giant:

    Sizes are altered! Killers are turned into giants, while survivors become tiny

    Hide & Seek:

    No generators

    No hooks, only Mori on downs

    Stay alive for 5 minutes to escape through the exit gates

    Auras will be revealed every couple of seconds

    5v5v:

    Two teams of 4 survivors and 1 Killer face off to control the generators.

    Capture the generators by moving generator progress towards your team's side in a tug of war gameplay

    VIP:

    When the obsession is killed everyone dies

    Only the obsession can open the exit gates for everyone
