Back around 2010 or so, I discovered that if you had a physical PC game that was also in Steam’s store, you could type in the serial number on the game box and it would register and add it to your Steam library.
WAIT WHAT.
Does this happen even if the game wasn’t on Steam at time of purchase so long as it has a Steam version now? Because that would be amazing.
I’m frankly rather concerned about the idea of crowdsourcing or voting on “reliability”, because - let’s be honest here - Lemmy’s population can have highly skewed perspectives on what constitutes “accurate”, “unbiased”, or “reliable” reporting of events. I’m concerned that opening this to influence by users’ preconceived notions would result in a reinforced echo chamber, where only sources which already agree with their perspectives are listed as “accurate”. It’d effectively turning this into a bias bot rather than a bias fact checking bot.
Aggregating from a number of rigorous, widely-accepted, and outside sources would seem to be a more suitable solution, although I can’t comment on how much programming it would take to produce an aggregate result. Perhaps just briefly listing results from a number of fact checkers?
Economic points are limited to plans gestures about taxes. Nothing about tackling corporate-induced inflation / shrinkflation.
Nothing about supporting workers’ rights and aiding labor organizations.
Nothing about building a stronger regulatory framework and tackling loophole use by corporations and ultrawealthy.
Nothing here on continuing to support US allies and build international partnerships.
I recognize none of these are exactly keystone domestic culture war issues, and also all more or less reflect where she stood on Biden’s major pushes. But I’m still disappointed these all go unmentioned.
Really glad I’m not the first to come here and say this. We’re “firing” programs now? Come on.
Hate to tell you this, but ‘locking jaw’ in any breed is a myth. There’s no such thing; ‘lockjaw’ is a bacterial infection, but has no relationship to breed (and in any case, won’t result in the jaw locking only after a bite).
I was going to say. I’m sure this will be great… for all 25 new homes built in CA that year!
