Rise of the Ronin. Team Ninja made a sandbox game set in the "foreigners are entering Japan" era. It's good fun but optimized pretty shit on PC. It's very much "a sandbox game but good" and with slightly less than Nioh quality combat.

I can get it to run at 60 FPS if I let it do upscaling so it's probably "As good as it's going to get" considering they haven't patched it in months. It is probably the sort of game you ought to pirate or test with a refund window, but you don't even get to the open world without clearing the first chapter so if you wanted to do Steam's 2 hour refund you'd want to speedplay the prologue to get to the actual meat of the game.

Cagnard et nuits tropicales: le sud de la France bat encore des records de chaleur

Si la #canicule commence à refluer dans une partie du pays, la chaleur écrase toujours le sud de la France, d’ouest en est. Des records absolus ou mensuels de température ont de nouveau été battus et le risque incendie demeure très élevé.

I am slowly coming around to the idea that continuous passive resistance and legal peaceful protest isn't actually worth much at all.

Radicalization is a direct response to continuously deteriorating circumstances and the clock running out. Most acts of terrorism are born out of hopelessness and these actions and the constant eroding of hope is how fascists obtain their police state.

legal peaceful protest does little to a state or system of management imposing laws against their people which are immoral and unjust tbh

nothing significant in life has ever been achieved through entirely peaceful means, it just... isn't something that works long term... because sometimes you have to actually anger the people in power for things to improve, and doing that necessarily involves more than passive peaceful resistance to inhuman and terrible conditions

We are very much in for it the next few years. They are pushing for a great war and all the state power that comes with wartime. I am really trying to cling on to EU values when they seem so far away from me right now, I dont support any of this shit. We are being Americanized.

I consider the current EU completely hostile and in direct opposition to its supposed values. They have become the enemy of the people. The drastic veering towards militarism and surveillance aren't values I share.

Des dizaines de rapports scientifiques démontrent depuis des années que l'inaction climatique va coûter plus cher que l'action. Mais soyez certains que François Bayrou préfèrera retirer tous les jours fériés que d'agir pour le climat.

Selon une étude d’Allianz-Trade, sur les 12 jours de canicule fin juin, la canicule pourrait coûter 0,3 point de PIB à la France, soit plus de 9 milliards d’euros.

Imagine a world in which you can lose your job for calling someone by their chosen name. Welcome to today's world of teaching. In Florida, you can be fired for calling your students by their chosen name without parental consent. That's what happened to Melissa Calhoun.

Her district's superintendent said that parental input can’t be ignored. But what if the parents are just plain wrong?

No matter. SCOTUS gave a ruling earlier this year that essentially made parental input is the ONLY thing that matters. Parents across the nation can now exempt their child from any and all curriculum that "goes against their religious beliefs." This would allow parents to exempt their kids from any of the standards, including evolution, in biology, or the Civil Rights movement, in U.S. history.

From the teachers' and schools' perspective, this completely throws the concept of teaching standards out the window. It makes it pointless for teachers to plan curriculum in advance since they wouldn't know until the last minute which students, if any, would be allowed to learn it. And it would significantly increase teachers' workload since they must create alternative curriculum for students who are exempted.

En Estados Unidos ya comienzan a entender que sus facturas de la luz son más caras por culpa de los #CentrosDeDatos

En Ohio, los vecinos pagan 15 euros más mensualmente para este sector. Y para 2030 se estima que subirán un 8% para todo el país, y un 25% para lugares de alta concentración de centros de datos como Virgina.

I am still not over the situation when someone asked for my “gmail”, I gave them my email address and they were like “No, your gmail!” And tried to explain to me that they only could send messages to Gmail accounts and they do not have an email.

We really need to teach more computer literacy. It was not their fault, they just did not know that Gmail IS email.

By the way, one of my cutomers knew this, but her disability kept her from being able to reach it. Most people would give that a "That sucks". I offered to reroute her entire set up to put the router at wheelchair height, and showed her pulling the router side of the power cable, instead of the plug side, accomplished the same result.
She was very greatful.
"No biggie. I'm just not an ablist asshat."

Fuck her cable internet intaller!

"But here's what's suspicious: we were told fortification would prevent bone disease. Instead, we got an epidemic of bone disease in the first generation raised on fortified foods.

Maybe it's coincidence. Maybe it's the hundred other environmental toxins introduced in the same era. Or maybe – just maybe – flooding everyone's system with a fat-soluble synthetic hormone that affects calcium metabolism had unintended consequences that took decades to manifest.
