I’d give up computing altogether, or even commit suicide if living mainly means being subservient to these soulless parasites.

It’s been time to leave for half a decade.

Pretty much agree with all of what the mayor said except for what boils down to “let’s not give them what they want and let’s fight hate with love and hugs instead.”

Imagine saying that to the Allies when the Axis came marching in.
Imagine saying that to a victim of violent bullying.
Imagine saying that to this murdered woman—Renee Nicole Good.

Sure, don’t fight fire with fire because hate clouds rational thinking. But at least fight fire with something analogous to the ±300 PSI water hoses that firefighters use. Sabotage these limp dick lunatics.

“On 10 October 1789, physician Joseph-Ignace Guillotin proposed to the National Assembly that capital punishment should always take the form of decapitation “by means of a simple mechanism”.”

I do like Björk but I’m not sure how much weight to give her opinions about international politics.

It doesn’t matter who says what, but that what is said is ethical and logically sound. But yeah, obviously the larger the fanbase the more eloquent/nuanced one should be.

Because we largely still have a me-first populace in no small part thanks to corporate “social” media. This enhances the belief of having too much to lose which prevents people from flooding the streets and taking matters into their own hands by force.

Neo: Yeah. Well, that sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I may have a better one. How about, I give you the finger
[He does]
Neo: and you give me my phone call.

Not anymore, adjusted the URL.

Patrick Boyle, John Oliver… people like these should be running things.

Did this…. Actually happen?

Yes, at 5:54 in “BREAKING NEWS: Trump Takes Phone Calls From Children Calling NORAD’s Santa Claus Phone Line” - Forbes Breaking News (https://youtu.be/QRSrH3hfsos?t=354).

“His name is already on the image where he signed it.”

1. With every “Save Image As” → “Share” cycle the picture quality tends to degrade. Sooner or later the signature becomes illegible or simply cropped out. Just look at the image quality difference now, after only being one day old!
2. Moreover, few people click a link to the source to check out the artist. But, even fewer read the signature, search for the name, and start browsing from there. Let alone the hassle of reverse image searching.

Respect the artists, add the source. Goddamn it’s not that difficult: Tommy Siegel @ https://imginn.com/p/DSnDl53Dvhd/.

In case the proxy website above doesn’t work anymore, “DSnDl53Dvhd” is the post’s id on that society-eroding website owned by that soulless billionaire.

Totally unrelated, but it makes me happy they said “paste into a word processing file”, and not M$ Word.

Unsure why you are being downvoted, because it is AI generated indeed: https://imginn.com/p/DSfdZQLjbf-/

Too bad overnight reinforced concrete isn’t possible, because some car-driving adult baby will intentionally drive through them sooner or later.

Seems like it’s a yearly subscription membership only thing. If I can’t buy it and own it I pirate it.

Any Gameboy game with an emulator.

Nintendo doesn’t care about making their old games, nay, works of art like Golden Sun still playable, so I consider them free to play at this point.

“And if I want to show how it felt for me, the fires of Mount Doom are sometimes needed to convey the feeling.”

That’s what psychedelics are for. 🍄‍🟫

Guile Theme for the pilot, and something that rhymes with Guile Theme for the corrupt corporate psychopaths… guil tine, guyo thein, guilothene, guillotine? I don’t know.

Anyone resenting this man is remarkably off-target or trolling. Obviously in a perfect world this is not the ideal method of conflict resolution. Sadly our world is far from perfect. Five months of unpaid wages is incredibly distressing because it is a form of psychological abuse. In that light he behaved exemplary, a calculated peaceful protest. He’s not a danger to anyone except for the profit margins of his decrepit bosses.

“We definitely need to arrest more people who have worked for months without pay for refusing to continue to work without pay. That’ll show them!” ―Apt comment on a mirror article, Pilot Of Cancun Flight Locks Himself In Cockpit Over 5 Months Of Unpaid Wages—Triggers Hijacking Response

“We shouldn’t try to achieve purity as an ideal; it doesn’t really exist.”

Not disagreeing with this, I simply dislike photography that distorts reality to such an extent where it no longer reflects how anyone would experience the scenery. E.g., editing a photo were a 1% fog during the golden hour is being photoshopped into the fires of Mount Doom. Sure, professional photo editing or concept art is beautiful, but that is not photography anymore.
