This is why, for all its faults, I kinda like the Windows 11 UI. It reminds me a little bit of when I tried openSUSE.

One of my favourite Batmans and he definitely doesn’t get enough recognition. Maybe not as iconic as Kevin Conroy, but more people should associate him with the role. Like Alan Tudyk with The Joker. As soon as I heard his voice in Doom Patrol, I knew he was born for the role.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t that perjury? At this rate, Trump really could commit murder in public and never see jail.

Perjury is complicated to prove.

That’s depressing, but thanks for pointing it out. When the presiding judge states that your sworn testimony is untrue, I would have thought that was enough.

An important distinction is that they aren’t military. Government, yes. But SNW recently had an episode establishing that a crew member’s personal log is sealed and it took the crew member’s death and a surrounding investigation to unseal them. The Federation clearly values privacy.

Really great lighting/shadows in this. At a glance I thought the person was a photograph you edited.

I’m convinced that someone high up in Konami’s marketing team thought that delta was the third letter in the Greek alphabet (because triangle = 3) and doubled down when he was corrected. So now they’re insisting they always intended for it to mean “change”.

It looks … fine. Snake’s face is still totally motionless like in the original teaser, which I thought was hilarious. But it looks like they’re doing a 1:1 remake like Demon’s Souls, which might be good or bad depending on execution. It could either uplift a classic or reveal how badly the gameplay aged. It has been a long time since I played Snake Eater or Subsistence so I couldn’t say without nostalgia goggles how well it holds up.

It’s incredibly difficult for most people to accept. I was in third grade when I first got into an argument with my friends because I proposed this to them. Twenty years later I still end up having the same debate. Even otherwise intelligent people refuse to give up their illusion of agency.

I say more Simpsons shitposting on Lemmy, miniature American flags for others.

This is one of my favourite songs of all time, but I also love the major key version someone made.

This new data poisoning tool lets artists fight back against generative AI (www.technologyreview.com)

A new tool lets artists add invisible changes to the pixels in their art before they upload it online so that if it’s scraped into an AI training set, it can cause the resulting model to break in chaotic and unpredictable ways....

This is cool. I think generative AI is great, but the way it’s being trained right now largely without consent from the artists or subjects is unequivocally unethical. Until the law catches up with the technology, people need ways of protecting themselves.

In the race to be Speaker, Jim Jordan learns Trump tactics only work for Trump (thehill.com)

Highlights: Intimidation, backstabbing and flaunting the will of the majority are all tactics that Donald Trump has used expertly to dominate the Republican Party. Wannabe House Speaker Jim Jordan has tried the same gameplan, only to find out that he’s no Trump. It took three failed ballots for that reality to sink in for...

It’s because Trump doesn’t have any “tactics” for Republicans to turn into a system for their own success. There is no 4-D chess or even conscious thought behind Trump’s actions. He is just a self-aggrandizing idiot who was born rich. His “tactics” only work for him because he is rich enough that he has thus far been able to walk over any consequences. His stupidity and indifference to consequences lead him to push on even in the face of external reactions that would make anyone else pause, rethink and adjust course. His idiot followers see his self-assuredness as strength.

Jim Jordan is a shitty, evil person, but he isn’t as stupid as Trump. When he sees a negative reaction to his actions, he flinches because he has half a brain. He reacts and adjusts, as people with even the smallest amount of self-awareness do. Republicans see that as weakness.

It looks like Goku is wearing one of the Potara earrings. How many drinks until he convinces Peter to wear the other?

Tlaib refuses to apologize for blaming Israel for Gaza hospital blast, attacks Biden (abcnews.go.com)

Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib refused to apologize Wednesday for saying on Tuesday that Israel is to blame for the hospital explosion that day in Gaza, an accusation that sparked political backlash against her from Republicans as Israel denies fault....

“Who bombed the hospital” is the wrong thing for people to fight over. It doesn’t matter who did it. Supporting either “side” that’s fighting is wrong.

You can condemn Hamas’s attack on civilians without supporting the IDF or Israel’s treatment of Palestinians.

You can condemn Israel’s attacks on Gaza without being an antisemite or supporting Hamas.

People who have no say in the matter are suffering and dying because two “sides” have been unable to figure out a co-habitation situation for decades. Everyone focusing on which side did what is already on the wrong side. If you’re for either side you’re actually for the war and against the civilians.

Personally I was always a bigger fan of Sloshy.
