Guy on the left is Charlie/MoistCritical/Penguinz0. I don't know of he's ever stated his political affiliation, but I don't think he holds many right wing opinions at all. He owns guns, so that's one I guess.

    Now I'm wondering of its legal to sublet an apartment in a swing state, to someone in a state that doesn't need their vote, so that they can help push it over the edge.

    I checked and it varies from state to state, but you only have to have an address for a month in some States too be able to vote there, and if you have two addresses, you get to pick which you want to vote for.

    So basically, 2 months before an election, I could subtlet my apartment to someone for like, $1, they wouldn't even have to move or visit or anything. They update their voter registry, and once their ballot arrives, I can mail it to then to fill out and sign. They can then mail it in from there, or mail it back to me and I'll drop it off.

    As far as I can tell, there are no reasons why this wouldn't work

    Just to prevent misinformation, this hasn't passed yet. It's still to close to call, and King County, the most progressive county with the most people, have only had half their votes counted. The rest of the counties also have 25-50% of their votes left to count. And late-counted votes are usually from mail-in votes, which past years show are primarily Democrat votes in Washington.

    Still, way closer than I would have liked to see

    *Update: It passed 🙁

    Yeah, other than directly contacting Affinity, we won't know which case is correct. However, the one thing we can say for certain is that the credential refresh timer is not on the scale of minutes. From anecdotes in the official forums, it's pretty clear that it is at least a 30 day refresh timer, though some people report it never needing to be refreshed

    This isn't true. In the FAQ on their download page, they explicitly mention that you only need to be online during initial download and installation, then you are free to be offline, either perpetually or for up to 30 days. Its hard to know which because the wording isn't consistent across official sources. There are features that won't work without an internet connection, but they are things that actually require an internet connection like stock photos and their AI. Why do you talk authoritatively about something you don't know anything about?

    Designing for a target demographic is fine. Almost every male streamer I watch played this game, and I enjoyed it as a man myself, even if they had women in mind during development. Nothing in the game alienates male gamers.

    Designing with a woman in mind just means focusing on a subject matter that polls well with women.

    Their wife watches a streamer play the game in the post, which is one where the player gets to design dresses. The streamer she watches is bad at designing dresses, so their wife sends chat messages to the streamer that tell him how to do better.
