Is this about that time Jason Alexander (George from Seinfeld) played the grim reaper in The Twilight Zone

Or is this a different reference about a different Geroge playing the grim reaper?

A reminder that the Confederate Constitution literally said black people would forever be property

Article I Section 9(4) No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed

While they physically kill the most birds by volume, the biggest decrease to bird populations is the ecological destruction of the environment. The pesticides we use actually make their egg shells non viable, but for some reason none of the studies count this figure in the "birds killed" category. It would double cats.

On top of that, we have deforestation wrecking their mating areas. People like to measure forestation in ground covered squared, while ignoring that the vast majority of migratory species only mate in specific areas.

Circling back to pesticides, the food supply has been wrecked. The food that is left avaliable is often filled with chemicals still that cause diseases, make their already fragile bones even weaker, cause feather malformation, blindness, organ failure, and cause outright sterilization.

But for some reason that's not listed in the "birds killed" figure.

Cats might kill a bunch of birds, but with a figure that's as broad as 1 to 4 billion, you need to question the validity of the argument and wonder why they leave so many other factors out of these figures.

It's the same kind of thing where they shame us for individual level consumption of pollutants and plastics, while corporations greatly outweigh consumers pollution. Both are a problem, yes cats do kill a shit load of birds, but this reddit level factoid keeps getting spread around and the reap threats aren't being educated on. You can't really say they're the "number one thing killing birds" unless you're using the figures that outright ignore other important information

I have a solid black cat that you can just do anything with. If he's laying there you can lay with him and he's happy or you can pick him up and carry him ti a whole other room and put him somewhere and as long as you give him a few pets he'll be happy.

Yes, it is. They don't have to vote that way, but free speech means I get to make a case for it.

That's literally democracy.

I actually managed to get mine done early this year, April 13th at 4 am.

Nothing you said conflicted with any of my points, lol

I've tried voice assistants, won't be viable until there's at least half a million autistic linux users who iron out all the kinks for a self hosted service.

Don't forget that the south was trying to force the north ro send back escaped slaves, depite the north using their states rights to say no. The south would also send Bounty hunters to go kidnap free born black people to sell into slavery. So yeah, states rights was an issue. The right to identify people as human.

But let's not also forget that the confederate constitution had a passage that says that there will not be any laws capable of being passed that infringe on the right to own black people

Article I Section 9(4) No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed

Realistically, though, that's no different from blaming climate change on plastic straws.

 
 
 
 

Not trying to rush, just curious if you're planning on releasing soon

 

I feel like Godot's AnimationTree is significantly more valuable and useful than Unity's Animator component. You can nest your Statemacchins or blend trees or BlendSpace2Ds. You can attach scripts to individual Statemachine Transitions if you wanted.

You also have access to the Advance Expressions, which is a fantastic way to not have to manually set a billion bools

And you can actually manipulate all of this from code, something I detested about Unity was how locked out I felt from the Animator component, and the legacy animation system is beyond old and depreciated. Godot doesn't lock anything away and you can modify everything you want from code, if you need.

Curious if maybe I missed something with my time in Unity, but it made me frustrated and annoyed more than anything.

 

I primarily use Libretorrent, but it absolutely fucking pisses me off to no end sometimes. I'll come back and my torrents will have file size mismatch out of nowhere and you can't delete individual files within a torrent once you've started them, and sometimes torrents will just dissappear altogether from the app (while still being stored on my phone, so It's not a whole loss)

I like to download higher quality versions of TV shows, but don't want to commit to the 60-100 GB that is sometimes the whole show (I have a god damned flag ship now that doesn't have an SD card. Pathetic)

Flud and Bitlord are just skins of libretorrent (or it is a skin of one of them)

I haven't touched uTorrent and it's clones on PC since like 2012, and I have never used them on Android.

Any experience with clients for android that seem to fit my usecase? I just want something reliable and something I can delete files after download without the whole torrent being rendered unstable.

I'll be working on my first game jam game, courtesy of my friends' brilliant ideas.

I usually stay out of them because I never could come up with any mechanics, but I asked my non game dev friends and they supplied me with some stuff to bound ideas off of.

I'm excited to use Godot because of how quickly prototyping can be done, and my idea is no more than a prototype really.
