  1. I was 13. I was taping music videos on VHS and watched the music video debut of Metallica's "One" as it happened. It was the full length version with the scenes from Johnny Got His Gun, and I was glued to the set for all seven minutes. With Johnny's voice fading ("s...o...s...") into the darkness as the video ended, I was gripped by all kinds of intense feelings...sadness, anger, fear, confusion, relief, regret. It was metal, and I loved it. I had spent the previous two years wearing out my Def Leppard and Motley Crue tapes and really digging glam rock/metal in general, but this was my first exposure to real metal. Over time I'd eventually discover Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer, and my love of thrash.

Why does it matter that the guy was black?

You know exactly why it matters. Go troll somewhere else.

Check out how news orgs are covering this story.

Associated Press: "Milwaukee hotel employees fired after death of Black man who was pinned to the ground"

NBC: "Video shows Black man being pinned down by Milwaukee hotel security shortly before death"

CBS: "Milwaukee hotel workers fired after death of Black man pinned down outside"

ABC: "Al Sharpton to deliver eulogy for Black man who died after being held down by Milwaukee hotel guards"

CNN: "A Black man died after he was pinned to the ground by security guards at a Milwaukee hotel. Now his family wants answers"

Fox 6 Milwaukee: "Hyatt Regency Milwaukee death; man’s family gathers outside hotel"

Fox News: ""

These are the earliest stories posted by each outlet that I could find. The headlines speak volumes. The local Fox affiliate omits the fact that the man was black in the headline, and Fox News has yet to acknowledge it even happened, which was 12 days ago (June 30). I'm sure they'll get around to it, though.

Argh! Yeah, sometimes it's better to start over than try to fix it. All those weirdass classes and bizarrely nested divs, screw that hahah

Oh jeez, it's coming back to me now. Yikes, what a terrible use of classnames. I'm sure they thought they had a good reason for it, but to me it's kind of a failure of a feature implementation if most of your userbase ends up not just ignoring it but outright deleting it because it's useless to them and just creates clutter.

Dreamweaver did have one saving grace. It had this code editor cleanup mode that removed empty and redundant tags, and at one point they added a neat option to remove Word document tags! From what I remember, it was pretty accurate and helped clean up a lot of shit. Unfortunately, it was unable to clean up code that it created itself.

Dreamweaver, gaaaah. Hey, at least it was better than Frontpage, which took a much faster nosedive into enshittification after Microsoft bought it and ruined the absolute shit out of it. Slightly better. Like, it had its own shitty inline styling that would get tangled up in itself and you'd have to clean it up manually, but at least it wasn't Microsoft styling.

Yeah, Fireworks compression was great! There was a period of time where I only used it to export jpeg, Photoshop's did suck in comparison.

PT stands for "physical therapy." They're trying to improve or regain mobility, likely lost due to injury.

Whoa, that is fucked up. They had no empathy for the guy, and the dude was one step away from CEO. Wtf is going on over there? They've been making sketchy decisions lately.

Oy, I missed it. Happy belated cake day, TPM!

Where did you learn this?

Omg those stupid commercials lol

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Don't feel too bad lol. It's structured to feel like a single player game, which they may have done a little too well. You aren't the only one to not realize.

It's such a beautiful game! I need to play it again.
