When they release their first Modern Warfare equivalent a few years down the line the western internet is gonna explode and it's gonna be glorious

They don't know what he sacrificed for us

This is what I will now be telling people whenever they ask me more about Linux on Sony consoles

Someone get Estonia on Lemmy.world they love preemptive last resort actions

Then when the state's violence, which has already demonstrated its capacity for genocide to your own acknowledgement, inevitably turns on you or your loved ones (maybe thats 5 years, maybe it's 50) don't be surprised and understand that your potential allies will have already been destroyed. The people you didn't stand in solidarity with before you are gone and the ones next on the list take the same inaction you espouse right now.

So we're at the point where it seems you acknowledge the horror of the US empire in basically being directly responsible (it could stop the money faucet at any moment if it viewed stopping the genocide as being in its own interests) for what I personally can only imagine as the worst crime against humanity possible to be committed by a state actor.

Tactically the only real electoral power you have as an individual is the threat to withhold your vote, and to deploy that tactic most effectively you'd give a very explicit reason for that withholding in order to apply pressure to the party who ostensibly does want to win an election. Infinitely better than individually voicing this tactic is creating a large bloc of people who exist within the critical states where 10-20k people will potentially determine an election. Getting the number of people in this bloc higher is the only real electoral strategy at forcing Kamala's campaign to acquiesce to electorate demands and bring forth a better outcome for Palestine because if she doesn't she will, explicitly, know she will lose. This provably works because the democratic party has already proven that in the face of an electoral impossibility (Joe Biden winning re-election) they will try to preserve power.

Even if you're a "there are other issues more important to me than attempting to stop my nation's genocide voter" (and if you are one of these people I really recommend a lot of introspection about yourself, your morals, and your convictions)- recognize that the violence being financed, supported, and enacted abroad WILL INEVITABLY COME HOME at some point if it is not rejected by the electorate. I don't know your most vulnerable issue and where it would rank on democrats deciding genociding or interring you would be politically expedient for them, but it sure seems that at least attempting this tactic even if it's just you falsely signaling to them that you won't vote for democrats over their financing and arms supplying of this genocide is in your long term interests so that you hopefully stop or at least delay the empire turning its violence on you.

Just looking for a quick clarification on two points before further responses:

• Do you agree that Israel is commiting genocide?
• Do you agree that the US is the primary financier of that genocide?

Rules-reformism is the final stage of liberal cognitive dissonance to the horrors-of-the-empire bargaining stage in my experience.

They either recognize that these reforms are intentional structural impossibilities then logically actually move towards some form of anticapitalist thought or disengage entirely if they're privileged enough to shrug it off. I've struggled helping friends at this point make the final step. It's extremely difficult to achieve in the imperial core which can be incredibly disheartening.

Always press these people on what aspects of culture and within 3 replies you'll have them showing their entire ass.

Yellow dog Linux and anyone could run Folding (no Linux required).

The reason was likely a tax dodge to get the device taxed as a computer and not toy similar to why the PS2 also had this functionality for that same tax dodge.

Secondary reason was probably the US military PS3 supercomputer back in the day.

I think there is a holy grail MGS4 PS3 special edition that retained hardware backwards compatibility (all models after went to software) and was 80gb of storage if I'm remembering correctly.

I think I'm gonna run for democraric governor of Texas. It seems like the easiest way to soak up millions of dollars with no expectations of anything happening.

Actually I take that back the person running against McConnell for his senate seat in Kentucky who absorbed millions of brunch dollars probably takes the cake. Amy something I think?

The only states where polling actually matters are:

• Wisconsin
• Pennsylvania
• Michigan
• Ohio
• Georgia
• Arizona
• North Carolina
• Nevada
• Possibly whatever district Omaha, NE is in if it's actually that close

Any analysis/polling done by the media that isn't solely focused on those states are busywork/useless neoliberal job programs for their fail-offspring.
