I think the bad logic here is that the more sites there are the more likely one of them is improperly follow procedures.

The real surprise to me is not the software, company or OS issues, but rather so many companies just blindly pushing untested updates to their prod environments, this was and will continue to be a risk associated with anything they do trust so implicitly. Feels like the security folks just totally failed Dev 101.

I never said it was impossible, just that one subset of the voting population was likely larger than another. Obama getting elected didn’t end racism, it was just a victory in spite of it. Honestly, part of the rise of White Nationalism might even be attributable to his election, making racism worse.

Why is race a topic? Because there’s a bunch of voting idiots who make their choice based on it. If the candidate doesn’t bring other votes with them somehow, it just makes it that much harder.

The sad honest truth is probably that there are more bigoted people out there that won’t vote for a Dem if it isn’t a white guy than people who would add votes to one who isn’t, particularly in swing states. Maybe I’m too cynical…

As for replacements, even the people who some polls show as being slightly more popular than Biden haven’t been through anywhere near as much of a dedicated smear campaign as he has, and if they were, we don’t know how they’d poll.

At its core, I think it’s basically just the Trolley Problem. Some people would rather passively support a worse situation rather than actively support a better but bad situation.

I went back and forth on it. The campaign is just the meta progression, the missions are the randomized element. Comparing to Darkest Dungeon for example, it’s really similar in structure.

Official Act to lockup the fascists as domestic terrorists, then bow out of the race.

Ok, sticking to roguelites, here’s some other options:

Deckbuilding Style: Slay the Spire, Monster Train, Griftlands, Balatro

Survivor/Bullet-Heaven Style: Vampire Survivors, Brotato, Deep Rock Galactic Survivor

Realtime Combat (I’d put Hades/Dead Cells here): Hand of Fate 1/2, Zero Sievert, Wall World, Rogue Legacy 1/2, Risk of Rain 1/2, Heroes of Hammerwatch

FPS: Gunfire Reborn, Roboquest

Turn-based/Pausable: FTL, The Last Spell, Loop Hero, Dungeons of Dredmor, Darkest Dungeon 1/2, Backpack Hero, Into the Breach, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, XCOM 2

Sure I missed some other good stuff.

Not a roguelite/roguelike but if you liked the combat style of Hades, check out Bastion.

For public ones, depending on what people started getting, it’d really strain the AIs. You could go in like 1 or two ways, probably different people getting both.

Something very uniform but still unique, like a QR code kind of deal, AIs would hallucinate the crap out of that. Or abstractions, like people do to change the way the shape of their face to combat facial recognition.

For private ones, just don’t ever get it photographed, any image showing that area without it would be probably fake.

I am waiting for people to start getting both public and hidden authentication tattoos, so they can prove generative images aren’t actually them.
