It looks like building r-rentals on penthouses currently cause white screens and endless loading screens.

Try this method: forums.ea.com/idea/the-sim... and revert the lot to a residential one.

Be aware that another shitty bill has been introduced: The SCREEN Act.

If passed, it would require Full. Age. Verification.

Like KOSA, call all your reps & tell them what a horrible idea this is.

Spread this pls.

This is certainly the tism talking but I find so much joy in curiosity and the process of learning that the idea of wanting to outsource thinking to a machine is unfathomable to me

That’s the fun part! Why wouldn’t you want to do that?

Valve just updated their Steam rules to ban content that “may violate rules set by payment processors or banks.” Sounds boring. It’s not. It’s the quiet normalization of financial censorship and it’s going to hurt LGBTQ+ games and devs

Nobody has seen me at my lowest as much as gdb. I don't know if a relationship can come back from that. How can I ever look into those eyes again, knowing what they know about me

I'm working on code that makes http calls currently, and yeah... std.http.Client is unexpectedly convoluted to use.
I used to advocate for adding more features to the #ziglang stdlib. But then you start to [try] and use what's there, and you think...maybe less is more.

std.http.Client and std.Uri come to mind as being particularly aggravating to use. But std.fs is up there too.

2. In the purpose section, Donald Trump frames being trans as an "anti-American Ideology" designed to "sow distrust" and "undermine family unity."

It also fronts the fringe claim that title IX MANDATES discrimination against transgender students.
