I prefer to use Main/Sub terminology. It also works without needing to change any acronyms.

You can get all the classic C&Cs on Steam and you can play a good chunk of them online using CNC online. I agree though, we need a new C&C Generals.

As a bisexual British person I absolutely support the idea of returning queer to it's classic meaning. There's also the option of just using both meanings. Context will establish which one you mean.

The Republicans are a right queer bunch, unlike my fellow queers in the LGBTQ+ community.

Fair points. I was mostly thinking of situations like downloading using a separate device, writing to a usb drive or SD card and installing via that. Downloading an installer and using it is just downloading without using an app store.

I've always took side-loading to mean installing from local storage, as opposed to downloading from remote storage. As far as I'm concerned downloading from a third party app store should not be treated as side-loading.

As opposed to your stance which is fuck people who don't want to have their language massively rewritten. I think it's far more reasonable to make individual accomodations for the non-binary folks that we interact with and accept that language has limitations and can't be changed overnight.

It kind of is actually. Throwing a milkshake isn't likely to cause much harm, and would probably result in an assault charge. Throwing acid can cause serious disfigurement and possibly death, and a far more serious charge.

You can condemn her actions without the hyperbole. This happened before and it didn't result in a wave of acid attacks and I've no reason to think this time will be different.

Do you know that he didn't take a gun safety course? For all we know, he could have had plenty of knowledge on how to safely handle a firearm and simply decided to ignore it for the sake of looking cool. The fact is that no amount of safety training can stop someone who decides to do something stupid.

I absolutely agree with your last point though. There should be extensive training in how to handle a firearm safely required before someone can buy a gun.

I'm pretty sure internet means internetwork, as in between networks. There's also intranets, which are limited access web networks.

You are right that geoblocking really shouldn't be a thing, it's existence is thanks to varying laws and regulations, and most annoyingly, IP distribution contracts.

None of that relates to this murder as based on the description of settler concerns, which are more of an issue in the West Bank rather than Gaza, I'm guessing that this happened in the West Bank. (Where Hamas is not the government.)

Whether the murderers are IDF or settler militants is immaterial to the point of this being an unjustified killing of a Palestinian shepherd living in the West Bank, who is rather unlikely to be a Hamas fighter or involved in the 7th October attack.

How does the atrocities of Hamas relate to the murder of a Palestinian shepherd?

I think I may have watched too many 'unwholesome' videos, but to me that face could be seen in a different way.

Definitely a cute and happy face though. The onion is just having a great time.
