I do agree on the whole, It’s the next phase of automation. The real problem stems from the fact that we hold onto the system where a tiny handful of people get the full benefit of the productivity, while the others are paid in time incriments which value goes down with demand, so as more jobs are automated or assisted (to allow more work with less people), supply demand devalues the labor.
First and most obvious hitting that critical mass… before you hit it, everything is hell, you are stuck with BS laws, and you can’t do anything about it. Your vote is worthless.
In my town this november there was one ballot issue… in short, it was summarized as "put a million dollars towards schools, build a new school on an unused empty lot owned by the school system, build a new sports field for one of the schools). Digging deeper that would be paid for by a proporty tax that would cost… up to 100 a year for people making over 150k.
So… the whole town was plastered in “vote no” signs, when I went to the polling place a guy outside asked me to “strongly consider voting no”. I was one of the 17% that voted yes.
So that basically tells me… demographically we need an insane change for the politics of this area to be less stupid, and that’s before factoring in that not only does it involve a HUGE change to reach 51%… but realistically we need more like 65-70% to counteract the inevitable gerymandering that will happen if we ever get anywhere close. I will be staying here, and I’d be happy to encourage all my progressive friends to stay and/or move here. But when it comes down to it, I’d be shocked if there is a swing in the next 50 years, and I certainly wouldn’t encourage anyone in a group that is likely to be directly oppressed to move here.
But won’t you think of the children!! Think of how many kids have never seen a poorly drawn penis and have to have their first experience looking down at a pothole.
I do wonder if anyone actually did say a charting on wanksy’s city… (IE city claims that it had no influence on their decision to fill potholes, but it was aknowledged that some are getting filled. Realistically that should involve a test, Wanksy should have found 10 potholes, penis’d in 5 of them, quietly took note of 5 and put on his list… Then anonymously slipped that information to a journalist with instructions not to publish for 2 weeks. At which point he’d analyze the 10 potholes and report back which ones were filled.
My point is, there needs to be more scientific rigor with the penis drawings.
You don’t have to worry about that, It’s an Elon Musk owned product, he already solved that with TwiXer. He just has to make sure that Nazi’s can send their propoganda to your brain, and then advertisers will stay very far away from the neuro link.
Honestly I haven’t heard any of my right wing coworkers etc… talk about this particular company, but I have heard a lot of elon worship from them. IE I hear a lot of them talk about how he’s gone so pro free speach with twitter. (and they tend to ignore me when I point out that he’s censoring every bit as much as the old twitter, he’s just nicer to the nazis and less nice to the left.
The feds will still go after it as an illegal drug when presented as recreational and the will keep the stigma going on forever. Furthermore it will keep a lot of talented people out of good job opportunities for smoking a joint after work instead of having a glass of wine.
Point is it’s a stroke of a pen to change the priority… One president or one DEA switch away. The supreme court upheld Roe V Wade which was why it wasn’t important to codify it into law… until it was.
Sad how many people don’t seem to get not persecuting people based on their race/religion/orientation, does not mean blindly protecting people who are doing terrible things.
Judge people not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. Which to be quite frank, Netanyahu’s character does not appear very good.

Falling for implies it matters to them. They’ve discovered the weaknesses in the system. The supreme court has goals to take on issues that can’t be demonstrated to negatively effect anyone, so in order to get the cases and overturn law they need straw plaintifs to give cases.
I’d say less that right wing ideology cares about enshitification one way or the other, but what they do care about… is the ability to not be sensored for hate speech. With less mods, and the remaining mods having worse tools.
Well I mean the biggest thing that would be the ultimate ideal would be anything that can maximize the ability to bring existing unity projects over to godot. IE minimal refactoring needed.
Big thing is not just getting people to start their new projects, but what about those who have spent 3+ years mastering their game, only to have the rug pulled out from under them when it was 80% of the way to release worthy.
Passwords you can remember is a problem if you have multiple sites.
While I love XKCDs HorseBatteryStaplerOkay! strategy… that works well for 4-5 passwords, if you have 20+ passwords you’ll pretty much wind up re-using, and if it turns out one of the 20 sites had garbage protection and gets fully hacked, any sites you used the same is also going to be vulnerable.
Personally still gotta say go with keepass or bitwarden (selfhosted if possible).
Right, but the point is, it may very well be that they were difficult to catch without going into harm on the other side (IE in say 9/11’s case having the bar set so high that they’d have grounded air traffic for 15 false positives before actually stopping the attack). Likewise say JFK or MLK’s assassinations, also probably infeasible, having to widen perimeter or advance security on quite a large distance from where they were traveling and speaking.
In epstiens case though, it seems like a high profile national news level criminal like himself. could have very easily been sent to a much better guarded prison, not taken off suicide watch etc… IE it seems like all the red flags were there that he would have killed himself if he could… and he was left in a situation where doing so was not difficult, and the cost of ensuring he didn’t kill himself would have been pretty low. It’s one dude that’s expected to stay in captivity, on a case that the whole world was watching. Not really that infeasible to have a 24/7 rotation that has one person dedicated to him at all times.
Umm… pirating windows is your recomended solution?
Look don’t get me wrong I could say it’s if anything more cost effective for simply the dev’s to say “OK anyone who has more than 1 hour of linux play time prior to this date qualifies for a refund”.
Of which, most likely is a handful of people so easy work.
Screw privacy sensitivity that’s a moot point. Installing windows isn’t a minor tweak to a computer .First of all the suggested method is technically breaking the law. Secondly you are talking minimum adding in a windows partition, so an extra 50 GB storage on top of the amount the game takes. Comprimizes to the boot loader on the system, in which there’s a high chance of messing up an existing install.
Exactly why IMO more game dev’s really need to be looking into godot. After hearing about gamemaker changing their terms, my thought was the writing is on the wall. It’s impossible to predict when the terms are going to change. I can’t imagine spending hundreds of hours working on a major project without knowing for certain that at the end of the day you know what the rules are going to be on licensing the engine.
Unfortunately for the most part, capitalism is. The companies that do exploit their workers and their customers make more money, Corporations that make more money than their competition then get in positions to do shady shit to kill their competitors. In the end of course there’s plenty of shitty jobs that treat their employees like garbage to jump between, and very few jobs that actually treat their workers like humans.
At least they got rid of the horribly designed all-in-one internet toggle, but this is still a pointless extra click. I have limited mobile data and disabling it helps with battery life. Stop being so pushy, Google!
or more accurately users just have no grasp of what things come from. No shortage of times in tech support where I’ve heard things like “Yes I know the internet is down, I’m not trying to go to the internet I’m trying to go to facebook”.
The "as moderate of a democrat as one can be and still have a chance of winning. That’s the part that always drives me crazy and wonders what would happen if we ran say a full on AoC/Sanders democrat in some of those areas. IE they are working to appeal to the people that won’t vote for them under any circumstance, a Manchin couldn’t win because putting a D next to the name is an automatic loss for the majority of voters.
The key there IMO is the only way to win is to actually inspire the people that don’t vote to come out. The people that are not even slightly impressed with the republicans. Maybe there aren’t any there, or maybe there are tons that just haven’t had a candidate to vote for.
Now as far as supporting the less crazy than MTG, honestly I don’t see a good reason to. Would you rather a composed polite person vote to gut healthcare, or a total psycho that embarases everyone to vote to gut healthcare. At the end of the day her policies are the same as most moderate republicans, with the exception of getting on the news and saying the quiet parts of the plan on speaker. IMO if the seat is going to vote against anything we want, and for everything we don’t want no matter what… then just ignore it and focus on winning seats that will. There’s 434 other places to focus our attention on,
“Biden is a Stone Cold Crook — You don’t need a long INQUIRY to prove it, it’s already proven,” he continued. “These lowlifes Impeached me TWICE (I WON!), and Indicted me FOUR TIMES – For NOTHING! Either IMPEACH the BUM, or fade into OBLIVION. THEY DID IT TO US!”
well in his defense, he’s a narcisist. He most likely believes every succesful person breaks the law as much or more than he does. he just is the only one to get caught because he has a target on his head because everyone is jealous of him.
Agreed to me it also seems just dumb for pence. By not commiting treason he’s made an enemy of trump, and therefore trump supporters for life. He should really just court the anti-trump republicans rather than continuing to try and win back the unrecoverable trump base.
Not neceserally but I think it has the same issue as say the google play store. IE roblox promotes the games do the best at extracting profit. There’s lots of games that are well thought out that don’t make much money. and they are burried somewhere on page 50+ hidden between a bunch of thrown together test projects etc…
