Yup. It was designed as a troll to get sword geeks to comment about the inconsistency and then call them out on it.

Those of you that back your vehicle into parking spots, why do you do it? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] BrazenSigilos@ttrpg.network 4 points 1 week ago

Depends on the car and the parking lot, for me. When I drive my mom someplace we use her van, it's easier for her to get in and out that way. This van has a shorter front end, and no backup camera to compensate, so I back in and pull out of spaces so I have better views as I'm moving.

When I drive my sedan with my wife and kids, I pull in to spaces and back out, because the sedan has a much longer front end and a great backup camera/radar alert system that makes backing out of spaces the safer option.

Supreme Court has denied Trump's request to bring back an obscure 18th-century wartime law to initiate mass deportations in c/upliftingnews@lemmy.world

Of course he is, and just like Palpatine, he will attempt to create laws and organizations that benefit himself. Especially if he feels he can twist the existing ones to suit this purpose.

I'm not deluded or ignorant, I'm well aware such a thing wouldn't stop the dictatorial asshat. I'm only pointing out that from a legal perspective, this wouldn't be an "official and legal" order. Such a thing can already be said of many of the Executive Orders that have been proclaimed and signed. It's a technicality, I know, but I'm just trying to point out another instance of the law being twisted and ignored rather then upheld.

I've actually got a setting/ system that uses this idea as a world building start. Necrobiotic by Penny for a Tale. It's pretty cool, although i use it as a guide for world creation with DnD games rather then playing in the created system.

Official = legal in this context, so if he where to try and declare war without Congress approving, it would not be an official act.

It lost steering power, not electrical power. Kinda like all the warning lights in your car turning on at once and the engine shutting down, even though the headlights are still on.

Yeah, if I recall the change was because so many people took them to arbitration at the same time that the cost wasn't worth it, so they changed the policy to 'local court' to avoid the situation repeating while also sidestepping any large class action attempts.

I already communicate without speech, I'm doing it right now to someone I've never met and don't know the identity of, who is receiving only the thoughts I wish to share. Why would I go beyond that?

Besides, I can also share thoughts with those I do know without speech. I text my wife when I don't want the kids to hear our joke, I can even include pictures to get the message across if I don't have the words.

[Help] Does anyone know how to delete a 'Downloaded' controller config? (ttrpg.network)
 

I had 3 configs I was testing for No Man's Sky, and since the last couple updates the community configs are broken. If I launch the game those configs come up as totally empty of assigned controls. I can switch to a Hello Games config and it works fine. I can't seem to find any way to delete a configuration once it's been downloaded. I was hoping that deleting and re-download would fix the issue.

PSA: Nested Desktop Mode (ttrpg.network)
 

After seeing some folks noticing a comment I made elsewhere in this instance, I thought a full post would be best. For those who don't know, the Steam Deck has a feature called Nested Desktop, which allows fast access to Desktop mode without needing to leave Game Mode or reboot into and out of modes.

To use this, go into desktop mode, open the menu and use the search function to look for "Nested Desktop". Now right click and add that to Steam. When you boot into Game mode, you'll see a new item added called Nested Desktop, which you can open to access desktop mode while still in game mode.

I found out about this almost a week ago and so far I use it most for referencing my digital game guides or searching NMS portal codes while still gaming. It's pretty seamless and really opens up some nice options, like modding a game and being able to boot it faster while having Game mode controls available.

Five Men Convicted of Operating Massive, Illegal Streaming Service That Allegedly Had More Content Than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and Prime Video Combined (variety.com)
 

It's disappointing that copyright infringement could cause these people to spend time in prison, but the predatory practices of the companies they where competing with are punished with no more then fines. A "cost of doing business" for the corporate aristocrats. This is the threat the upper class uses on the rest of us, and all too often do not suffer themselves.

Want a 3D printer in New York? Get ready for fingerprinting and a 15 day wait (www.nysenate.gov)

Want a 3D printer in New York? Get ready for fingerprinting and a 15 day wait

Assembly Bill A8132 has been assigned a "Same As" bill in the Senate: S8586 [NYSenate.gov] [A8132 - 2023]

I don't own a gun, I never have and I don't plan to at any time in the future. But if these pass in the NYS Senate and Congress, it would be required to submit fingerprints for a background check then wait 15 days, before you could own any "COMPUTER OR COMPUTER-DRIVEN MACHINE OR DEVICE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING A THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECT FROM A DIGITAL MODEL."

This isn't even going to stop any crimes from happening, for pity sakes regular guns end up in criminal charges all the time, regardless of background check laws. How about some real change and effective measures, rather then virtue-signaling and theater illusion for a constituency?
