Arguably campaign contributions already count as half bet half bribe

It really depends on what you consider a leftist. People on Reddit would call themselves "the left" and act like Obama is flawless and accuse you of being a maga if you feel otherwise.

Xbmc was renamed Kodi and it's still revenant. It has a totally different use case than Plex or jellyfin and there's plugins for both.

Yeah turning politics into a fandom changed the game for the worst in a lot of ways

You're probably not going to reach a lot of trump supporters here. If you want to talk to the ones reasonable try twitter or Facebook.

My favorite thing about Lemmy is people are willing to make accurate criticisms about Obama and his policies instead of simping for him because he's charasmatic and a Democrat.

Oh, the ones who made the last steam machine and controller and supported them for 10 minutes

That's the other thing Europeans don't understand. They drove all their alpha predators extinct centuries ago.

If valve is working on it (which it looks like they are) it’s a matter of if than when

Which valve? The one that made half life? Lol

People seem to think gun owners are itching for an excuse to use it. Maybe some are like that, but as for me, and it sounds like you, and the majority I've met, well I don't ever want to put holes in anything that isn't made of paper. It is reassuring to know that if someone's going to try and bludgeon me to death I have an option to prevent that though.

This surprises me. I live in CT, which has some pretty strict gun laws compared to other states. Almost everyone who works there has a handgun in their holster, and they're fine with me wearing mine holstered as long as I dont take it out until I'm on the firing line.

I have a neighbor who appears to be schitzophrenic. He seems to think I hacked his wifi for some reason. He's threatened me in the parking lot, assaulted another resident, and I have a video of him standing outside my bedroom window in the middle of the night, pointing at it, and swinging a baseball bat. I bought a gun. I carry it when I go to my car or the mailbox or do laundry. Because the cops didn't do shit and I am not going to get murdered by this motherfucker.
