    Corvid-19 and its impact (name edit)

    At the Federal Level, The Australian Electoral Commission does exactly that. State and territory elections have their own bodies to handle them as different legislation governs smaller elections. The AEC is also pretty good about reminding us to keep out details up today but I presume this is...

    Who maintains Electoral Rolls in the US? Are they handled state by state?

    Corvid-19 and its impact (name edit)

    And even if the WHO did make a few God almighty fuck ups, how does he think removing America's funding is going to help? That's going to put them further into the pockets - willingly or otherwise - of countries like China and Russia and any number of state actors the U.S. has less than stellar...

    Web cartoons you grew up watching.

    Does Red vs Blue count? Cos that?s the first of such things I remember watching in low quality mpeg format :p

    Inexplicably popular books.

    Unless you're a genius, that approach seems unlikely to gain you much recognition since writers - like most artists - improve over time.

    Realism and Weapons Part 2: Staff and Stick Weapons

    While I have no doubt as to the bone breaking efficacy of a hardwood baton or billy club, modern police telescoping batons are made of steel. So I suspect any lack of broken bones is down to a change in applied technique rather than the materials involved in their construction.

    Plans for the Covid 19 Lockdown

    Yeah no, that's a problem with the way your environment is configured. I've worked in IT for well over a decade and never once has a corporate device I've been in contact with been able to download and run updates from anything other than the organization's SCCM server, pre-packaged and...

    Bad News, Everyone

    At the risk of seeming ignorant, can you expand on what you mean?

    PS5 controller revealed.

    I find the position on the Xbox controller actually helps because they seem positioned to make the movement they require as easy as possible. With the dualshocks I always felt my thumbs cramping up.

    Bad News, Everyone

    You know the thing I find baffling as shit about that part about Cernovitch?s implied views on men not handling any aspect of child rearing is that men?s groups who are doing work for men worth a squirt of piss have been trying to get it known just how much fathers do want to be involved in...

    Five minutes? Jesus Christ how do you expect emotional connection with anything in five fucking minutes?

    Banned Escapists To Be Granted Amnesty On New Forums.

    Literally every forum has bans, even those with the laxest standards imaginable. Because guess what, private communities - which is what the Escapist forums and your discord are - can determine the limit of speech. You have chosen a fairly high limit, good for you. The Escapist has chosen a...

    Banned Escapists To Be Granted Amnesty On New Forums.

    Well, its been close to a decade for some of them. Allowing that time and tide can change a person there?s no reason not to let them have a clean slate. If they?ve matured their delivery and can contribute to a conversation then cool. If they?re the same hooting dickhole interested only in...
