What does the process of disobeying illegal military orders look like? [US] - Lemmy.World
Could someone who has served or something please enlighten me?Just scratching my
head wondering what about that process is keeping people from actually doing it.
Beyond just saying “No,” is there grievance paperwork? A petition? Witness
statements? Is it as simple as having the balls to tell your CO no to their face
and being open to consequences?
It seems like at very least there’s a culture of “the people above me probably
know better” and/or “don’t be the squeaky wheel” but it doesn’t seem to me that
that should be enough for the level of inaction we seem to be seeing here. What
gives?
Idk how the image got flipped.
This kinda blew up. For the record, there are probably decent use cases. I’m just befuddled by its popularity. The best I’ve seen is PC games on a TV more easily than moving an entire setup. But the form factor removes a lot of the upgradeability and repairablity that makes PCs so great, it has standard hardware like a console but still traps you in a (admittedly slightly better) ecosystem, it has Linux but masks it so well most people won’t notice or care. If it pushes gaming to a more linux-friendly place, great, but it feels like it’s packaging it to the point that it won’t push the player-base, only devs. It feels like it packages almost all of the limitations of the 3 groups with very few of the best benefits. Truly do hope I’m wrong, I often am.
Idk, I just don't see the use case

Best World-Building Game Coffee Table Books? - Lemmy.World
I recently started getting some CP2077 books (World of, Guide, comics
collection) and discovered I really enjoy having nice, high-quality physical
media that expand on my favorite worlds. I started poking around my favorite
series and already have my eye on Hyrule Historia, the Dishonored art book, the
Dark Horse MGS I-IV art book (Like $500 for that one, yikes. But also Yuji
Shinkawa. Hm.), and the Last of Us I-II art books. Also really want the Wheeler,
Rawson & Co. Catalog from RDR2.
Not as into books like retrospective yet, especially for something as general as
an era of gaming. More focused on either one game or one setting, ideally from
the creators. Official books, sources of canon, etc. I’ve heard good things
about books like the Burch siblings’ book on MGS, the Spelunky book from the
same publisher, etc, they just dont grab me the way more official, visual ones
do.
So do you have any books like this? Any standouts of ones to get? Ones not to
get?
