The party recruited and invested in school board races to oust Republicans. It worked.

If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.

Reminder that Lina Khan was right about every single thing that Microsoft would end up doing after buying Activision.
My Transition Co-chair Lina Khan and First Deputy Mayor Dean Fuleihan joined Starbucks workers on the picket line today because making NYC affordable means an end to unfair labor practices and a living wage for our workers. We are their partners in the fight to live in this city with dignity.

Because it's completely meaningless to the thousands of innocent people they're bombing, rainbow or not the result is the same.
But everyone living outside of the USA is not a real human so I get why you don't see it.

I hate this sort of meme.
“The only difference between the parties is whether the power to destroy human civilization rests in the hands of leaders who think gays, women, and black people should have their rights acknowledged.”
Even if true, how is Rainbow B-52 not infinitely preferable?

Thing is if the publisher/developer of "Bandit Trap" can afford a cartridge then I don't believe the cartridge transfer speed is the only excuse for big publishers.

This does massively help but the file size increases by 40gb.
Seems like they were using console-specific decompression tech on PS5/Xbox but here DirectStorage simply wasn't up to the task. Shame.
Either way it shows there is a ton Capcom could do to fix Wilds. Imo the RE engine isn't at fault.

The online narrative around Iwata is still one of the craziest history rewritings that I’ve witnessed
One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

Lowkey I think MHWilds PC should have been delayed just like World was. Could have avoided such a disaster.

Stuff like this is so funny like they know ai is a pr nightmare but they want so badly to be able to use it and ruin everything to save money
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

Been thinking about this a bit and something that occurred to me is that on some level the developers are aware of this because every main story mission in MHWorld and Wilds does not tell you who you'll be fighting until the story cutscene.
So by design you cannot prepare for them at all. Strange.

The games have minimized hunt prep too much. Rise and World were as far as they could push it (in my opinion). Going back to GU isn't an arduous task like you could expect, but for the entirety of Low Rank in Wilds it's just GONE
You know that might be it. All of the QoL since World has been about minimizing hunt prep and side chores so we can just get to it and then this game has you /not/ hunting for long stretches just for the sake of a story that doesn't pick up until the final stretch.
