I know, fucking wild, right? So unrealistic. /s

Seriously though this film came out the same year as James Cameron’s bore-fest Avatar, and the contrast between the two ways of humanizing the aliens species is so stark and makes Cameron’s obvious reliance on making the aliens attractive so we are more naturally humanize them. Whereas Neill Blomkamp’s District 9 makes them ugly and filthy, and yet does so much more of a competent job of humanizing the alien characters, especially in regards of making them physically unpalatable but more socially palatable than any of the humans. The humanization relies entirely on character development and character action, as opposed to Avatars lazy fucking doe-eyed puppy-nosed blue fuckdolls.

From the plot summary (no spoilers other than the first few minutes of the film):

In 1982, an extraterrestrial mothership arrives and hovers over the South African city of Johannesburg. Inside, an investigation team finds over a million starved insectoid and crustacean-like aliens and the South African government voluntarily relocates the asylum seekers to a refugee camp called District 9. 28 years later, District 9 becomes both a ghetto and a shanty town, and humans come to view the aliens, derogatorily called “prawns,” as filthy, violent animals who bleed resources from them. The Prawns have been systematically reduced to second-class citizens there and have been known to consume canned cat food.

Throw it on the pile.

Interesting. I was fighting with KDEs implementation of ddc today because it’s fucking crashing my power management system when the monitors go to sleep. I didn’t realize it went that far back.

I choose this guys dad.

10 to 1 the Police Chief has CSAM on his phone. I call and raise the bet.

It’s literally a documented design in the Windows store

Guess I’m going back to VGA then. Pretty sure old VGA shit doesn’t transfer metadata about themselves.

(just kidding, I use Linux)

Also it’s not actually “autonomous” it wouldn’t have done this at all if not asked to complete a task and this how it chose to complete it.

The LLMs don’t make decisions or act on their own, they only follow directions

Orcas understand praxis.

This also works with Beard Bros. You’ll have all the men giving you compliments and women asking you to shave it.

I wish we lived in a world where no one had to worry about being “too much” and that people had enough emotional bandwidth to really be there for one another.

I highly doubt that you’re actually too much.

“Democratic.” Sure. Right. Got it.

They really don’t give a fuck how bad their lies are because nobody fucking lifts a finger to even tell them they’re pieces of shit to their face.

He literally let Netanyahu fuck the election for him by not taking a stand. He KNEW Bibi was in Trump’s pocket and he did FUCK ALL to stop it by making clear he wasn’t going to support a fucking genocide.

He literally let Netanyahu walk all the fuck over him and give ammo for Trump.

Unpopular Opinion: If you bought a game console when prices were exploding you aren’t really in a position to argue real financial harm because… its a fucking video game console. It’s not housing, food, or some other major need.

Out of all the companies who will argue this, I honestly think the media companies have the largest leg to stand on because why are people just eating the cost increase of something that isn’t a need if they financially “can’t afford it.”

Also this isn’t a Trump “screw up.” The money landing in the pockets of the companies who donated to his campaign was the end goal from the beginning.

How do I know? Because a judge allowed the tariffs to go in while it was determined if they were legal or not and part of the reason the judge agreed was the Trump admin lawyers promising it would all be paid back to consimers if they lost. They never had any intent.

Hmm, well for one thing I’m on a Ryzen 7 3700x 8-core, 32gb of RAM, and an AMD RX 6600XT, so I do wonder if the differing setups has anything to do with it.

But yes, you grabbed the correct one, that wasn’t a hash, just part of the release name of the nightly build.

My only guess from here would be to try to check logs and/or use something different than Steam.

For example, I couldn’t even get the setup.exe running in Heroic, but it launched with no problems in Lutris. My go-to when things aren’t working is Lutris, and then launch every pirated game through Heroic Game Launcher, personally. I manually add it to Heroic after Lutris does all the work.
