    Steam Controller gets official release date and pricing, set to launch May 4th

    I don't play much PC these days, but I'm interested in the controller's compatibility with other consoles (Switch, Xbox, etc). If the controller works on those consoles I'd be much inclined to pick one up as my next controller. Considering the price points of rival controllers, I think $99 is a...

    Gaming Xbox scraps discounts for Game Pass subscribers in favor of rewards points

    That's especially irritating given that Rewards Points have been gutted in terms of ease and methods of acquisition in recent years (spoken from someone who previously farmed enough points to earn multiple $100 store credits, before it got too tedious to be worth it). At this point buying...

    Xbox Game Pass increases in price, changes made to subscription tiers

    Fantastic news for all six Assassin's Creed fans. Quite a bummer for everyone else.

    Trump claims Tylenol/acetaminophen/paracetamol causes autism

    I just feel bad for all the doctors/pharmacists who will receive an influx of phone calls from confused parents. I expected when RFK's health department announced they'd "find a cause" for Autism it would be something ridiculous, but Tylenol of all things is just laughably misinformed.

    Microsoft will raise the price of Xbox consoles in the US yet again

    And I thought I was paying too much when I got mine for $500.

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    1. Nazi slogans and sentiments include dogwhistles or allusions to Nazism mainly, language designed to teeter the line but not cross it. 2. Discriminatory-based hate groups or hate groups with political relevance, such as Proud Boys. It's vague with no context. The idea in these guidelines is...

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    You're probably right. It's been a while since I've looked at Biblical canonization so I'm probably conflating or thinking of something else. Not that I'm at all interested in debating Biblical history. You're clearly highly knowledgable about this, and debate with a dreadfully analytical tone...

    Trump fundraiser asks for $15 donations so he can ‘try and get to Heaven’

    Last night I was on a call with one of my friends who got super drunk and tried to convince me the moon landing didn't happen. I tried explaining how impossible a claim like that was, but he kept ignoring any point I'd make. Eventually, he told me he didn't know what "antithetical" meant, to...

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    At most, you can make arguments for some Biblical events, but never too many at the same time, just because of how many discrepancies and contradictions the Bible has with itself, simply by nature. It's in Christian apologists' best interest to ride this line as closely as possible without ever...

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    To each their own, but there'll be a cold day in hell before Christian apologists make accurate history lessons.

    Trump fundraiser asks for $15 donations so he can ‘try and get to Heaven’

    Correct. I imagine most of those emails aren't sent by him personally, as is the case with most big figures. The PAC is probably sent a summary of what to campaign about and goes from there. I wasn't suggesting that he personally penned the email, only that it existed on his behalf in an effort...

    Trump fundraiser asks for $15 donations so he can ‘try and get to Heaven’

    The email does exist, and opens with Trump asking donaters for $15 each with the tagline that he'd "like to get to heaven" while promoting a 24-hour fundraising event. He's used similar language when referring to ending the war but that was seperate from this.

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    The only topic that exists to be discussed here are insults hurled across the political divide like there's no tomorrow. The original post topics are the off-topic ones, and our members here are very quick to redirect the discussion back to on-topic shit-slinging. It doesn't matter how sensible...

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    You can be Atheist without hating religion. I was born and raised Christian and became Atheist after analyzing why I thought the things I did about religion and Christianity. I don't hate religion; I know many other atheists/agnostics who don't hate religion. Everyone should have the right to...

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    I've encountered this specific kind of confirmation bias before--simultaneously admitting the countless revisions, movements, groups, and interpretations of a single religion and, at the same time, having no problem calling every interpretation that doesn't belong to one's own group heresey. I...

    Saying NO to fascists/nazis - if you are one of those, you are not welcome here

    It's not a history book, though. From a different non-religious perspective, there is objective wisdom to be found in the Bible, just like with many religious texts. And although, to a limited degree, the Bible can be used as a loose evaluation of ancient society, morality, etc, it shouldn't be...
