Family game night everyone!
  • I once played without house rules. It went relatively quickly and it was a blast. Lots of backstabbing.

  • ‘Giant bronze poop’ statue ‘honoring’ those involved in Jan. 6 riot appears on National Mall
  • "Overturn an election" is a dead giveaway that they are against the insurrectionists. That's not a phrase that supporters use.

  • Baldur's Gate 3 holds up shockingly well in first person—so well, in fact, that Larian head Swen Vincke's been gobsmacked by his own game: 'Just look at it'
  • Is this mod available on consoles? I might have to pick it up since it seems to have a physical version now.

  • Marvel's Midnight Suns is criminally underrated
  • I thought it was fine. I don't know about underrated though. I don't think it's nearly as good as Xcom.

  • 7 Signs That Point to Kamala Harris Defeating Trump
  • Only if the person reading this comment votes. If they don't vote, she won't win.

    Vote.

    VOTE.

  • How the success of Baldur's Gate 3 and Monopoly Go are driving Hasbro's "all in" digital strategy
  • It's ridiculously popular. I have a half dozen coworkers who are obsessed with it.

  • Bill Nye at Crooked Media Tells Young Voters “If You’re On the Fence, Get Off It”
  • It's been 4 years since Trump left office, 8 years since he took office. And people don't pay as much attention as we do. They legitimately don't remember how bad his presidency was.

    The single most destructive thing he did was pack the courts with radicals (largely thanks to McConnell blocking Obama's last two years). And nobody even talks about that, nor would a centrist care about the judicial system.

    However I have heard these people criticize him for one thing, no climate agenda.

  • Walz, Meat and Masculinity, Maybe Not-So-Redefined
  • "there’s one classically “masculine” value that he proudly hasn’t let go of."

    I think they missed the point of Walz. He represents a lot of classic masculine values, just without the toxic ones.

  • Just Voted. Even though I can't leave my bed due to Disability. Thank you California for allowing vote by mail!
  • Something that I've heard recently that's made me rethink voting by mail as a common practice. It's very common for a head-of-household husband to be more passionate/insistent on how they vote than their wife. It's also very common for the husband to vote one way (Republican) than the wife (Democrat).

    It would be much easier to coerce (even mildly) while voting from home than at a confidential voting booth.

  • Donald Trump 'Groped' A Minor At Donor Event? Claims Of Bombshell Video Surface
  • I think what's even sadder is that so-called moderates and centrists won't care. Trump didn't win in 2016 due to his cult. He won because everyday people recognized how fucked up he was and decided they didn't care.

  • Donald Trump 'Groped' A Minor At Donor Event? Claims Of Bombshell Video Surface
  • For accuracy's sake, he said he walked in on the adult pageants. He was also accused of walking in on the teen pageants.

    I'm 100% certain he did both though.

  • Disc Editions Make Up 82% Of All PS5 Console Sales
  • I like having a physical product when I'm spending $40-$70 on a game. When it's less than that, I'm generally okay with it.

    But if consoles go digital, I'll still buy it. But I'm going to be a lot more patient with my purchases.

  • NFL Title Rankings Week 7, 2024 Season

(+32 for beating the best team, +1 for beating the worst). Teams lose points for losses. They lose more points for losing to bad teams and fewer points for losing to good teams. (-32 for losing to the worst team, -1 for losing to the best). The points total was reset with the first game of the season.

  • NFL Title Rankings Week 7, 2024 Season

    This is an objective, unbiased ranking in the same vein as the NFL Title Belt. As such, the number 1 ranked team will always be the same as the current NFL Title Belt holder.

    This is Week 7 of the NFL Title Rankings of the 2024 season. See here for last week’s rankings.

    Only 4 of the 15 games ended with the lower ranked team winning.

    The Chiefs beat the 49ers to keep the NFL Title Belt and first ranking. The Chiefs will hold the NFL Title Belt until their first loss of the 2024 season. The Raiders will have a chance to take the title belt this Sunday.

    The Titans lost to the Bills and will remain last until their next win. The Titans will have a chance to move out from last when they play the Lions.

    The Chiefs beat the 49ers to keep the NFL Title Belt and first ranking. The Chiefs will now hold the NFL Title Belt until their first loss of the 2024 season. They will play the Ravens on Thursday night.

    With the Commanders losing to the Cowboys in the last game of the season, the Commanders will remain last place until their first win of the 2024 season. The Commanders will play the Bucs Sunday.

    This ranking assumes that there are never any fluke games and all teams are appropriately ranked. If you beat a team that is higher ranked than you, you move ahead of them and they move down one spot. However, other teams can jump in front of teams that are higher ranked than you, moving you further down the rankings.

    Arkansas secretary of state's office responds in abortion referendum lawsuit
    4029tv.com Arkansas secretary of state's office responds in abortion referendum lawsuit

    The secretary of state's office says it's not true that its lawyers and representatives assured Arkansans for Limited Government had filed the right paperwork. It also says the document a staffer emailed the group was an internal document and not a copy of what the group needed to turn in.

    Arkansas secretary of state's office responds in abortion referendum lawsuit

    The secretary of state's response filed Monday agrees that a staff member got an e-mail asking for a copy of what to submit. It states that a staff member replied with a Word document.

    However, the response states that what the staffer emailed was "an internal recordkeeping document" and not any sort of template. The response states that no such template exists.

    The response also denies Arkansans for Limited Government's claim that attorneys and representatives with the secretary of state's office assured the group it had filed the necessary paperwork.

    How does spam get past searches and filters?

    I get a lot of spam. In the subject it might say something about Home Warranty. The sender will say Home Warranty (the actual sender will be randomwords@randomwords.com).

    But whenever I use my email's search engine, to delete all emails that say "Home Warranty", it can't find them.

    Do people usually just ignore these types of emails?

    I got banned from a (presumably) rational community. Just curious if anyone has had experience with this and what next steps are.

    FWIW, the community was worldnews@lemmy.ml.

    I assume I was banned because I said I understood Biden opposing surgery on minors, specifically trans surgery. Although I disagreed with it.

    Heisman Trophy returned to Bush after 14 years

    Reggie Bush has his 2005 Heisman Trophy back, as the Heisman Trust announced Wednesday the formal "reinstatement" of the trophy to Bush amid what it calls "enormous changes in the college football landscape."

    The Heisman Trust's decision comes after Bush forfeited his Heisman Trophy in 2010 in the wake of significant NCAA sanctions for USC, which included Bush receiving improper benefits during a Trojans career that spanned from 2003 to 2005.

    Are y'all watching UFL?

    I'm just curious if anyone is watching. It's been entertaining.

    I keep wondering if there's a potential spring camp/minor league future for the UFL. They could start popping up in college stadiums during the off season. Imagine if a college team, let's say the Arkansas Razorbacks, had a UFL team that focused on giving former Razorbacks a place to play if they don't go to the NFL. It could even be a way to entice middling players to go to that school. Now do that with any college that wants to participate.

    Wilson's release will end a disappointing chapter for both sides. The Broncos went 11-19 in Wilson's starts over two seasons and failed to make the playoffs.
