Is it just me, or does crime documentaries have a biased "pro-cop" vibe to it?

Jump

  • There has been a fair amount of analysis of the social role of 'true crime' as a genre. To boil it way, way down, it's about creating a representation of human evil to let people feel essentially righteous. It is peak centrism, uplifting the status quo by placing it as opposition to the unquestionedly heinous, and with it, current structures, like cops as law enforcement.

    • I find reality and the way it works unacceptable.

    Jump

  • Sure, Mr. Eugenics. Sure we could.

    • Window Animated Style Name?

  • Splitscreening is most of what your talking about but the particular thing of framed shots on a coloured background is something similar to 'photo collage' so 'd be video collage.

    • Does anybody else understand they need to make deep connections with people but their social battery has been dead for a while and can't put up with people's BS?

    Jump

  • And that's an availability problem. The advice you see most is directed at the general population, and therefor generic. If you want advice tailored to your specific context, you have to request and pay for it.

    • Bots everywhere or am I losing it?

  • Dead internet theory is not just a hypothesis anymore. It's an intentional business model. Enjoy what's left of online human interaction. Soon, it will all be just LLMs siloing each user individually.

    • Do you think it would be more cool if society kept using tech like telephones (the non-"smart" type), pagers, telegraphs, and radios, instead of the internet?

    Jump

  • I heard a discussion of the concept of an RPG setting where the world never made the jump to digital. The idea was to explore that alternative now based on a changed history. It included the idea of aliens that we'd only meet by having developed new technologies in the analog space, sapient, benevolent AI that only exist because of some different interpretation of intelligence in an analog space, etc.

    • Any way to force keep alarm volume at 100%?

    Jump

  • Automate

    Not a complex thread either

    Flow beginning>audio volume?(proceed: when changed, audio stream: alarm)>audio volume set(100%)>back up to audio volume?

    Not rooted means you'd have to start automate after a reboot but otherwise no effort.

  • You wish it looked that cool.

  • Expect violence.

    • Paint for miniatures is a rip. Buy normal acrylics, save thousands

    Jump

  • They do have to be good quality paints as some of the cheap ones are a bit gloopy, but otherwise very true.

    • What do you play in your phone?

    Jump

  • Tons of stuff:

    I have ~135 game apps plus some that are not exactly games but not exactly for productivity.

    I have lemuroid and a pile of old console games.

    I have a few sites for doing other little games, like daily Akari.

    highlights:

    Collapsus

    Endless Sky

    Pixel Dungeon

    Luanti

    Gladiabots

    Mindustry

    PartyHardGO

    OpenTTD

    Oxenfree

    Revoltaire

    The full set of games by Yiotro (a dev who puts it all out there for free, no ads, and lets you buy in if you like it)

    Terraria

    Underhand

    Space Chem

    A collection of puzzle games off of Fdroid just called puzzles. It has akari, sudoku, minesweeper, signpost, galaxies, towers, etc. All the games you might find buried in the back of a newspaper.

    Stardew Valley

    Tic-80

    A pile of games from itch.io

    • Which book(s) left a lasting impression on you?

  • Growing up? Stranger in a Strange Land

    MIchael's way of viewing the world felt so natural to me, and yet so different from almost anyone else around.

    • How do people keep snakes as pets?

    Jump

  • Most snakes are like fish. You don't have them to snuggle, just to appreciate from nearby. Many, even most, can be handled perfectly safely, but it's not about bonding with them like a mammal. They don't want to kill you. That's cats. Snakes just want you to leave the mouse and go.
