You're making the same assumption that people with the same skin color will have the same culture. A black person raised in Baltimore or Atlanta is going to be culturally distinct from a black person from Africa who's parents paid

It shouldn't be controversial, but it is. Assuming that everyone in a demographic is the same is why companies try to increase diversity by hiring based on skin color instead of their actual life experiences. It also means that you can

I've got family members that are a good example of this. Some live in a rural area of the South and think that worsening weather is punishment for allowing gays to marry. Meanwhile when one of my cousins came out as gay, my grandparent

That's only for one player though, if you click through then it says: Schedule: Price is $30 per player per session for one player, $15 per player with 2 players, and $10 per player with 3 or more players. Ask me about my availability!

It could also just be done as a thinly veiled threat to discourage people from working there. Even if nobody is arrested, the statement is basically saying "it doesn't matter where you are, or how secretive your work is, we can fi

Just checked out the site, and one thing I'd recommend is allowing GMs to give more detailed info on the price per session. In the "Upcoming Games" section, one of the games is listed at $30 per session, which seemed incredib

It says that after reviewing his "official schedule" they concluded no meeting happened. I seriously doubt that an illicit meeting would be included on his "official schedule".

Valfaris is rated platinum on protondb, and it crashes on launch for me, same with Titan Quest, which is rated gold. Proton has been a godsend for gaming on Linux, but I don't put much stock in protondb beyond checking to see if a game

No you don't. Devs don't have to use Steam's DRM if they don't want to, so you won't lose every game. Period.

I think it's mainly as a safety net in case Microsoft decides to only allow applications to be installed through their own store. IIRC, that was the original reason they started work on SteamOS. They're also working on their own c

What's best for the nation. Having blanket lockdowns with no timeline for lifting them, while also wrecking the economy because people don't want their 80+ grandma to die of covid isn't necessarily good for the country, even

We could do age-based lockdowns. Stores near me have ~2 hour periods in the day where you can only shop if you're 65+, I don't see why they can't make that the only time 65+ people are allowed to enter.
