    Obama wasn't a straight up war criminal... until he became president. He just didn't have the opportunity before then.

    Harris is already a war criminal though, as VP she's complicit in Biden's genocide.

    From what I've read, it's due to the fact that they're strapping a mask to their faces. The exhaled gasses have nowhere to go, it mixes with the inert gas, and doesn't cause a loss of consciousness as quickly as intended.

    Even if they managed the exhaled CO2 correctly (wtf they didn't?!), that requires the CO2 to actually be exhaled. But someone who doesn't want to die that's being killed by asphyxiation is naturally going to hold their breath, which means the CO2 stays in them, ruining the whole point.

    Inert gas seems like a great choice for a self elected procedure, but could probably never go well for execution, because the theory of why it works (asphyxiation without the CO2 buildup that causes pain) requires cooperation.

    At least? Injection at least theoretically can be quick and painless with the right chemicals, we do it for pets with little problem. Beheading leaves the bodyless head alive for a couple seconds.

    For those who don’t remember, Rittenhouse is a divisive figure who is held up as a hero in right-wing circles after a 2020 incident where he drove to Kenosha, WI to protect local businesses

    Disgusting article.

  • Is there any way to give up video games? Fromsoftware and Nintendo titles will be hardest for me to drop

    I'm curious why you feel the need to "give up" video games.

    We hate on "gamers" here but that doesn't mean playing games is bad. If you enjoy playing games there's no harm in that.

    Like others have said, depression is a good way to stop playing games (I'd add anxiety as well). I wish I could have the mental energy to play games (and not have anxiety over playing them "right").

    But obviously if playing games is negatively impacting you in some way that's understandable.

    NYT: "U.S. Officials Believe Israel Will Not Conduct Full Invasion of Lebanon"

    That's not even burying the lede, that's taking the lede out back and executing it in a ditch.

    All the journalistic malpractice that's fit to print.

    I’m not sure I’ve ever had a double decker club sandwich. I don’t think that’s a requirement. The ingredients are what defines it and they’re pretty good.

    Shown is a man, woman, girl family, but every 2 adult 1 child family now shows the same, with similar icons for the other numbers of each. Actually it looks like Google still represents women and girls in the new ugly icons, but man and person (gender neutral) show up the same as do boy and child (gender neutral). This is literally no steps forward, many steps back. Especially for Apple, wiping out both sexual orientation and gender representation. And Google conflating male and gender neutral is pretty bad too. I see no good reason for this change, not even a profit-motivated reason. I think it might have something to do with representing race. i.e. a silhouette is more race neutral than yellow. But they could just support mixed race families instead. Microsoft on the other hand supports all the possible family combinations of both gender and skin tone, which Apple and Google never supported. [Here's the built in Windows 11 tool to make a family.](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/7d3df56c-61fa-40cf-8f00-6245a649fabd.png) Each person's gender and skin tone can be changed. Tangent: on the other hand, Microsoft refuses to support country flag emojis for some reason which is annoying.

    They better include a reference to the bear. They already have Wojtek and the polar bear. ![](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/d8ddacd0-fcba-478f-9dc4-97f06819debf.png)

    How have they managed to make piracy easier to understand than the legal way? I love the Pokemon page laying it all out, it's a nice concise example of the problem. "Swap to Freevee then Hoopla, then swap to Tubi, then Hulu, then Roku." :agony: You couldn't write better parody. Anyway, here's seasons 1 through 19 in one download: https://nyaa.si/view/1191282
