It's even better when Bethesda themselves describes Starfield as the "next-generation of RPGs". It's the same type of Bethesda game that I've been playing for 15+ years just with a new coat of paint. If this is the next-generation, then the future has no ambition whatsoever.

I noticed there was no association on the flyer -- no website or organization name. These cowards wouldn't dare walk into my town centre and start saying that shit to people's face because they know full well how it makes people feel.

Somewhat relevant story; I found a laminated flyer on my jog today. The first half of it was talking about child trafficking in Columbia, then following on with "but it's not just gangs!" before linking underage sex trafficking and paedophilia with LGBT and drag, before moving on to a Lenin quote about owning a child's life, finishing off with "Hitler agreed with Lenin!". The second half was about finding God and salvation and all that.

I can only imagine if someone who was gay or trans finding that and reading it - how upsetting that must be to read a random bit of sheet telling them they're a nazi paedophile. Picked up every one along my route and binned them, I should've taken a photo of it. How and why should anyone tolerate that?? Surely that's hate speech, if I find them placed around again I'm reporting it to the police. None of that shit in my area please.

Yes, you can either add the game as a non-steam game and force proton, or use Lutris or Bottles (with proton or other WINE runner). For repacks with installers, you can launch the setup.exe with Lutris or Bottles (install the game to 'fake' drive_c and move it), just make sure you include dependencies that require it (usually .net framework).

Also, from someone who used to work at mcdonalds when I was in college - it's not the fault of the employees that the shake machine is broken and getting pissy at someone earning minimum wage because you can't have your mcflurry is peak entitlement and assholeism.

I don't like being unknowingly associated with something or anything that could get me into trouble in the future. I have no idea what will happen during my lifetime and it doesn't even have to be from the government of my home country.

If you have resist fingerprint on, or use Librewolf, then you need to disable resist fingerprint, clear twitch cache and cookies then restart firefox/librewolf. Go back to twitch, log in (remember me for 30 days), and you should pass twitch's integrity check on login and be through.

This is what I do with my setup on Librewolf:

  • Disable resist fingerprinting, disable silent canvas blocking
  • Disable ad-blocking/tracking extensions - uBlock Origin, Decentraleyes, TTV Pro LOL etc. (sometimes I need to do this for twitch integrity check to pass. This should only happen once during the authentication request).
  • Clear cookies and site data (via lock symbol on the left-side of the URL bar)
  • Close browser
  • Open browser and login to twitch
  • Re-enable extensions and resist fingerprint

Fair enough, if you think there was only 5 minutes when the ball was out of the play then I don't really know what else can be said.
