You know, I wonder if half of the reason for the rename, aside from being more on the nose.

Is so even when the stock market tanks they can say “The DOW is up 100,000!”

What about the other though.

I’m against US imperialism.

So I believe the only truth must be either the perfect opposite of what they are saying, or the propaganda of their adversaries.

eventually I’m sure it will. at least within windows I think it’s safe to assume if it’s on the screen, it’s a candidate for AI control.

Well I think Schumer may be more UNIVERSALLY hated, because he sucks for both sides. If you think tax cuts for the rich are great, that Isreal should be able to do whatever the hell it wants, that wars are a good thing, you’ll love McConnel, Schumer on the other hand sometimes says words to pretend to oppose those things.

So in short, if you are pro-fascist you hate schumer a little, if you are anti-fascist you hate schumer a lot… but at the end of the day, no one likes him, except for maybe the people that support his role as the person hired to lose.

I mean easy enough to recreate it with a more open database, but yeah still someone pays for hosting, but yeah key issue is userbase. Same flaw with trying to make a better dating site, or anything else location specific. It’s barely feasible for things like lemmy and mastadon where we pull from international pools of people that mostly don’t care if the other users are 500 miles away.

When you try to do a facebook equivelant, doesn’t really go anywhere because, people don’t need just people, but people they actually know.

and yeah trying to get “people in the same city”.

as obviously one guy just reporting the gas stations around him, for an application that only he uses, is just a fancy notebook, and the real problem is would he continue using it long enough for a second to appear and make it actually beneficial for anyone.

Doubly so factoring in it’s right now at a time when, hardware costs are skyrocketing. Getting a PC with the same specs as the one I bought in 2023, is almost double the price today. Even steam machines and consoles are delaying themselves because they can’t find a way to release at a reasonable price point.

Everyone has basically been told “3 months ago was the last time to buy a computer for a while until either the AI bubble pops, or some magical huge increase in manufacturing happens to keep up with demand”. Point is this is literally the worse time in history to tell people to go buy a new PC.

I think both are pretty equally awful, I think much like military capabilities, Putin’s rhetoric is restrained by his need to have allies. Just like weapons cover, isreal is emboldened by allies that will back them no matter what they say or do. Putin still walks the line to the maximum amount of evil he’s allowed to be without triggering ww3.

They’re working their way towards being as bad as we are! and they aren’t as good at marketing to try to convince people it’s to find lost dogs.

So… let me get this straight.

The US bombed Iran, to stop Isreal from bombing iran first? Knowing we’d be retaliated against regardless of who attacks.

Some real Roger a Muirebe energy

I’m assuming just they don’t have access or want to take a side, or reliability for it. IE the groups making the cracks don’t want the added legal risks of providing the actual game files themselves. So if joe makes the crack but doesn’t want to risk sending the software, then that means it’s up to someone else to provide the software without the crack.

My thoughts exactly… the country that we are actively brainwashing and saying is evil doesn’t have weight. On the other hand, if the whole tournament was say, The US, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, everyone else boycots it… that’s the kind of middle finger the US needs to realize just how badly we’ve pissed off the world.

That being said, how hard would it be for a nation to sort of… host a non-fifa world cup. IE I’d hate to see the players and teams work go to waste, and honestly it being done this year on the personal level everyone could see it as the real one.

Obviously you didn’t take the fast track program.

I mean the obvious thing is, we haven’t come close to finding a loophole to the speed of light speed limit. in the massively tiny portion of the universe we can see, there’s lots of “seems to have water, could possibly support life” planets, but well over 80 light years away (and those are the “close” ones).

Then if we do assume some life forms were to have faster than light travel, we are probably not a “no contact”, but rather “low priority”. To a species that far ahead of us technologically. They’d have access to billions of planets, at which point if life is relatively common, we’d be very un-special.

Too inaccurate, Toddler throws a tantrum because someone wouldn’t give him a toy. Anthropic started the contract with the rules in place to begin with.

No not really, they are cutting the lesser evil so they can go with the greater evil. In short, Claude won’t fire their weapons for them, so mechahitler gets the trigger.

True… humans wear adorable hats all the time, yet I’ve never seen a report of a fossilized human found wearing an adorable hat.

I fricking hate that that’s the sounds of things though… the mainstream hardware becomes just enough to run remote desktop consumer hardware will no longer be produced at scale… meaning not only won’t we be able to upgrade or get new hardware… but the old hardware will constantly go up in price as it becomes more scarce harder to find. We’ll own nothing and pay through the nose to continue to access everything.

More accurately they didn’t all, ALWAYS wear adorable hats. It very well could be the norm, just not when treking through the tar pits… or just coincidentally the .00001% that actually fosilized in ways to give analysis of soft materials happened to have left their hats at home.

Well yeah but no shortage of games have to be changed in order to cross country lines. Sometimes in small ways sometimes in huge ways. Off the top of my head the pokemon Jynx/Rugela for instance used to look very much like blackface. They had to change it’s color from black to purple to make it acceptable in the US. Or say Vivian in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year door, Vivian was a trans woman, but they modified it in the original english version. (though it was later added back in the remake)

Hell wolfenstein managed to sell in germany with a “remove all references to nazi’s” requirement.

Point being, video games are no strangers to removing things they too controversial in a place they ship to.

question I guess is, will the trend reverse when education gets worse?
