He is railing against the government giving certain people aid when it doesn't benefit others, while accepting government aid that only benefits those in his state. Both situations are a financial crisis facing only one portion of this nation's population. It's blatant, textbook hypocrisy.

There, I've spelled it out for you.

To rephrase the question - If someone was looking over your shoulder at your Steam window, would they see the installed porn games in your library from your other account, even if the other account isn't logged in?

Do you look at this comic and honestly believe that the criticism is "he accepted hurricane Ian relief money"?

How do you handle that in Steam itself though? Does it show games that other accounts have installed? Does it just not let you play those games unless you sign in as that account or are linked via family sharing?

Curious why you would think that users on the Twitter-like (microblog) platform are older than those on the Reddit-like (link aggregator) platform. I've always associated microblogging with a younger mindset.

While anything over 1:1 is ideal, I think we can agree that setting it to at least 1:1 is better than setting it to 0 as u/Riusaki suggested. While it is the bare minimum, it's not in any sense leeching to give back as much as much as you've received.

Except you should set it to at least seed to a 1:1 ratio so that you're giving back as much as you download.

A straw does? What are you, the straw police?

Sure, crosspost away. As long as we're not getting too many duplicate posts within /c/sysadmin about the same topic, it doesn't matter much the source.

For those unfamiliar with this campaign - note the SPA logo with the "Don't copy that floppy" slogan in the middle of the page:

The problem is you can't "take risks" with Indiana Jones stories, because those "risks" would rely on the the source material of 30's adventure serials that he's based on... which used abhorrently racially/culturally insensitive stereotypes for its "dark continent" villains that "Western/White Adventure Man" would combat. You can see this in how we view Temple of Doom today, which is the one that adheres the most closely to the material Indy is based off of.

Because of modern sensibilities (and rightly so), Indiana Jones can only ever fight Nazis or somehow go to space and turn into Buck Rogers - i.e. Star Wars. Nobody cares about being insensitive to Nazis or fictional space people/aliens.
