Smart choice. Lethal injection has a terrible history in reliably killing someone without issues. A firing squad is significantly more humane, and people on death row will generally opt for it if given the choice.

However, it’s far less common today because society doesn’t like firing squads; everything about them feels too barbaric.

Hmmm I wonder why that is… Surely it couldn’t be because capital punishment itself has no place in civilized society, right?

Not entirely sure on the genre name, but try checking out Stick Fight: The Game. It’s a similarly great time with fast rounds and lots of variety.

Have you recently done any hardware modifications? I had very similar issues which persisted until I realized I had not fully seated the 24pin connector after changing out my CPU cooler. After seating it properly, random boots and reboots went away.

This. So much this. Monopolies are often evidence of an unhealthy/stagnating market, but they’re more symptom than cause. Trusts/cartels, price-fixing, and anticompetitive behavior are the actual abuses of market power, and are much more problematic.

I’m not going to claim that Valve is perfect (they’re not, e.g. see issues regarding DRM) and I’d love to have more choices about where I buy my games, but I can’t think of any instance of them abusing their position in the market to prevent new entrants or claim an unfair advantage. From what I’ve seen, they appear to be a very fair and honorable competitor in the space. However, if anyone is aware any examples to the contrary, I’d love to hear about it and update my opinions.

My thought as well. Not an Israel apologist, but it’s difficult to trust this video on its face because of the seasonal differences.

Take a look at metaname. They offer a very minimal (read: unencumbered) service, and are based in New Zealand. Not the EU, but at least it’s not the US.

It’s not that easy to see here, but the picture on the left is super AI generated.
