Yeah, I don’t think an organization that carries water for the Zionist regime in Israel actually cares about the safety of Jews at all. Israel has been proven to stoke antisemitism abroad and make the situation for Jews outside of Israel worse in order to entice them to emmigrate to Israel. Any organization that doesn’t acknowledge and challenge the racist framing of Jews with the Israeli state is itself incredibly antisemitic, and demonstrates that they don’t really care about the welfare of Jews. I think it’s safe to say that a far right organization would be willing to hold water for other far right figures, and that real Jews like my partner are correct when they say that Joanne’s depicted stereotypes of goblins as essentially Jewish bankers is incredibly hurtful and encourages real life harm against Jews.

🤦 you seriously want me to just go find plenty of other sources agreeing that you're arguing about folklore at this point instead of racist stereotypes? If people like you weren't bringing it up, literally no one would even notice. You sure aren't getting up in arms about the exact same depiction of goblins in literally every other piece of fantasy out there.

One of the most horrifying details in the game too, of which the director for it for most of it’s development was a far right media personality, is that the “goblins” use an “annoying horn” for a status effect that’s directly modeled off of the Shofar. The Jewish Shofar is a very holy and important cultural artifact for Jews which is directly paralleled in the game as an “annoying horn”.

yeah, so you clearly haven't played the game, and the fact that you think that there's an "annoying horn" in the game that has a status effect (what in the fucking world are you even talking about?) says pretty clearly that your opinion does not matter at all here. You're just spreading inaccuracies in the hopes of trashing something. Spreading lies doesn't help your case, it just makes you look like an angry person out for revenge, no matter what the truth is. JK is a terrible person, you don't need to make up shit in order to make that case, there's plenty of actual things she's said you can use.

I literally did address that.

And she’s probably making very very little off of HL as a whole. Warner Brothers owns the majority of the copyrights around the HL universe, unless it’s theater or books, JK Rowling’s website even says so.

And here's some reading from a Jewish person on the topic. You should really really give it a read. https://smrosenberg.substack.com/p/a-brief-analysis-of-hogwarts-legacys, though I understand not wanting to give substack a click (maybe you don't know about that though?).

sometimes things are bad and are bad at their core (both because they financially support someone who is doing so much to make the world more transphobic than it already is and also all the antisemitism, racism, classism, misogyny, transphobia, and just plain old bad writing decisions at the core of the story) and we just need to let go and stop participating in the fandom because it inevitably leads to people saying shit like “oh i can just buy this harry potter game even though i know jkr sucks and this gives money to her that she will use to fund bigotry, it belongs to the the fans now!” when it doesn’t, as long as jkr is alive it’s her space and spending time in it will eventually lead to money making its way over to her!!!

I'm sorry, but this is such an insane view (with so many inaccuracies in it I'm not going to bother debunking them all) that it's pointless to argue here. Maybe spend your energy on something else, you're giving her more mindspace than she is doing actual harm to the community. And she's probably making very very little off of HL as a whole. Warner Brothers owns the majority of the copyrights around the HL universe, unless it's theater or books, JK Rowling's website even says so.

and the game itself is bad because it’s about the goblins, who have long been noted to be fairly antisemitic caricatures in harry potter, being swarthy hooked nosed creatures who run the banks, have a long history of pogroms being run on them, have different moral values around ownership (very similar to accusations of judeo bolshevism) and have a literal star of david as their symbol in the films. and in this game they kidnap children for ritual purposes which is just straight up blood libel

This has been debunked time and time again. If you don't believe me, maybe you'll believe the actual CAMPAIGN AGAINST ANTISEMITISM. She's so against antisemitism that the fucking Campaign Against Antisemitism says "So it is with JK Rowling, who has proven herself over recent years to be a tireless defender of the Jewish community in its fight against antisemitism, for which we are immensely grateful".

It's you that are seeing antisemetism. It's not there. It's a folk tale that has evolved over actual centuries into tales that go beyond the original tropes. Maybe instead of getting into arguments around this stuff you should look into the history of it and realize that, just because something looks bad, doesn't mean it is.

if you still aren’t sure what’s antisemitic here and you somehow aren’t a bad faith poster, look up judeo bolshevism, look up blood libel, look up images of antisemitic caricatures and compare them to descriptions of goblins in harry potter. there are so many antisemitic tropes in there it’s impossible to imagine no one was aware

maybe you should actually research the history of things rather than just looking at pictures and comparing. It's quite racist (and antisemetic) to think that just because things look similar that they were intended to be the same thing. They're not.

I completely agree with everything you said.

It’s literally the opposite of transphobic. It’s like they tried as hard as they could to negate everything bad JKR has ever said…

I genuinely looked for my favorite language before reading the text 😂

Would have loved to see more information in the article about how it actually works.

How is it alleged if they’re paying out.

That’s why for typical project it is useful to merge pull requests into the main branch — the linear sequence of merge commits is a record of successful CI runs, and is a set of commits you want to git bisect over.

... if you do this you completely negate your ability to use git bisect...

Even if it was a free hardware problem (they showed the specs for all the hardware, providing circuit diagrams, explanations of every module, and replacement parts for every module) they still don't have to put a fucking way to flash other software in there! How can this be so fucking hard to understand? Do you think Firefox isn't FOSS because it has EME in it, which isn't provided to the public? E.g. you could never compile Firefox yourself and get Netflix to work. Firefox is provided OSS, but internal private keys are kept secret making sure that you cannot change those things about it. Do you not see the problem with your comparisons here?

It does. Free software interfaces, unlike proprietary, are open standards. Either of that’s cabling or wifi interfacing, a free software interface is common knowledge, which could be used to produce devices allowing for what I mentioned.

It does not. Just because there is FOSS software for something does not mean that the interface to flash that software is known or foss. Along those same lines, just because the software being used in something does not imply that the connectors to actually change that software physically exist in the real world. Along those same lines, the software could be free, open source, known to everyone, but require a connection to a server using private keys that are built in at build time and are not part of the software. This is literally how firefox, chromium, etc are allowed to show Netflix (through EME) and I know for a fact that you wouldn't claim that firefox and chromium aren't FOSS. I have now shown you several ways that FOSS does not solve anything shown in the above image, nor what you are talking about.

You saying "which could be used to produce devices allowing for what I mentioned" is just like saying "oh well the plans to build rocketships are all over the internet, it's common knowledge, which could be used to build a rocket to go to pluto". Just because the knowledge is there does not mean that:

1. it's possible to do in any reasonable timeline,
2. it's available for anyone to do. In this case, the ford software being FOSS would literally accomplish nothing, as the majority of people on the planet have no clue and would never want to flash their own software on a $50k+ vehicle).

If it was free software, yes, they would have. Therefore, the importance of free software.

your logic makes zero sense. They do not have to provide any of this. Say they provided the OS. They do not have to provide any of the software to flash it. They do not have to provide the connectors to flash it. They don't have to tell you which boards you need to flash, which modules need modification, etc. The OS software shown in the image is only a very small fraction of what would need to be provided, the rest of which couldn't be OSS (they're physical devices).

By the things you say, you probably don’t even understand “free” software means libre software. I’d suggest you go for a nice Internet research journey in the world of free and open source software: https://itsfoss.com/what-is-foss/

I own and maintain the https://programming.dev lemmy server, and my entire github is 100% FOSS. I have worked with multiple companies to open source their internal software, when they can. I can pretty much guarantee I understand FOSS a lot better than you do.

I don’t know what your sentence means, but it doesn’t seem nice. Dude you really need to learn to communicate with others on the internet better.

As I posted elsewhere.

That has nothing to do with free software. If you have the ability to flash software then the current software on the system does not matter. Ford could make their software open source, free and anyone could download it, but it would be useless unless Ford provided a way to flash that software. The freeness of the software literally has nothing to do with this post at all.
