it was about the hardons we collided along the way

I'm curious, does this person not eat cows because historically they've never posed a threat to people? Or is it cannibalism to eat fish because we evolved from them at some point?

As a white vegan (btw) I totally feel this. If you do a little bit of thought into how animal ag got so awful you quickly realise the problems stem from so much more than people just wanting to eat chicken nuggies. Political change would probably do more for veganism than most vegan specific activism, but of course both is still good.

I love that even if this was the case the actual area for cargo is the one thing that's managed to shrink over time.

The entire industry is built on suffering. It's bad for the animals, the workers, the climate, your health.

I get a lot of downvotes for being vegan (and I'm usually being a prick about it, so - fair) but surely even the meat eaters must recognise that animal ag needs to scale way down to be at all sustainable. At the very least we need to stop subsidising it so it's cheaper than alternatives.

Can't these hackers put their minds to releasing private emails from CEOs or something useful for once? How come it's only ever the working class getting fucked over. All our data has been breached several times by now, who's even still buying it?

I wish I could afford land and just grow my own food.

I am so confused. It sounds like this Kahane person hit someone with their car. But it also sounds like the Kahane person is in hospital? What happened to the protester? Who cares about the nutjob?

I feel like this when I go to see my doctor and we exchange pleasantries on the way to their room.

"How are you today?" "Yeah, good" "So what can I help you with?" "crippling depression" "oh"

Lena Cena is pretty funny but these people sound insufferable.

anti semitism is when you're criticised for killing people.

Yeah, it basically comes down to a complete lack of comprehension for how big something like twitter really is. On the surface level the functionality is pretty simple. But there's so much else going on that nobody sees, and a whole heap of it will be interconnected.

Twitter web, twitter app for ios and android, twitter api, advertising, content monitoring, content storage, caching, serving, twitter for businesses, content algorithms, accounts, privacy features, user settings, theming, ui, ux, embedded content. That's just off the top of my head. I'm sure a lot of these huge companies could be a bit leaner than they are, but usually the size is somewhat warranted.

This guys whole thing is just making stupid takes based on absolute surface level knowledge of things and sounding confident enough that people buy into it.

I remember seeing a remarkably stupid quote by him and looking into who the hell he was and the fact anyone listens to him is baffling. He just yammers on about stuff he knows nothing about and then apparently there's enough oblivious people who believe him to keep the whole thing going in some perpetual shit eating machine type situation.

I know not much about global politics. Could this be cheeky ww3? Or is this sort of thing pretty common?

I can see the appeal in more modern games, sometimes it is nice to lose yourself in a world and be a cowboy or something, but yeah, I think something is lost, or maybe not lost, but just different enough that people still want those old experiences again because they offer something more modern games can't satisfy.

It's just not what I think of when I hear retro I guess. But yeah, there's no doubt heaps of exceptions to what I said, just sharing my general sentiment.

It's because (imo) modern games kinda aren't fun and there's something nice about just loading up a game and playing - no cut-scenes, no tutorial, no microtransactions or season passes, no worrying if it'll run on your old computer, no need to make a new account and jump through 2fa hoops and checking for activation e-mails and accepting ToS you didn't read, no need to be online, no need to clear space for an 80gb install, no 4gb patch whenever you go to play, no two minute load times. You just get to start it up and play a game and have a good time.

Reaction diffusion systems describe the way things mix. Think of oil and water and how if they start mixed they will separate; a system would describes how that happens. More fun systems can create the sort of patterns you see in the examples and they show up all over the place.

But it's the same problem if I tell someone about a cool sci fi movie and they're like 'what's a sci fi?'. Everyone has to have new terms explained to them the first time they hear them.

I don't think using terms like roguelike or metroidvania are trying to be exclusionary, it's just difficult to convey a genre succinctly. There's probably lots of people unfamiliar with the game Rogue but they know exactly what a roguelike is.

I am also an Australia and yeah, I hate this shit. Like people say it and it sounds corny, but children are literally the future. I don't know why people are so dead set on hating them and making their lives worse.
