I like how these conversations always ignore the wrong things Skylar did, such as cheating with Ted. It's always "well Walter was the devil, so anything she did was ok". She still begins the show by showing very little care for his birthday and making it feel like a chore. She's literally part of why he feels he's in a hum drum boring life with no control. His character ark is largely about him going from a meek high school professor afraid to do anything into a completely fearless kingpin who finally has control over his life. Yes, the point is that he goes too far. But it's also shown pretty clearly early on that he feels powerless and like his life is out of control(you know, like a sudden terminal cancer diagnosis might do).
Was Walter a bad person? Yes. Was Skylar also a bad person who didn't truly see him as an equal and who, when given the chance, cheats on him remorselessly? Also yup.
Multiple people can be bad. Even Hank, arguably one of the most moral characters, suffers from major blindspots and is a dismissive dick to Marie.
People defending Skylar are the kind of people that say "I can do what I want because it's a free country" and get shocked when they learn there are consequences to their actions, even if justified.
In a show otherwise filled with adults. This why we hate him. It's a common trope that when you add a child/baby actor in a show that otherwise doesn't have them, the show becomes worse. Wesley absolutely fits.
The context that's he's supposed to be an annoying child? You're really not getting that people can dislike a character that is "well done". Yes, he's well done.... as an annoying child who tries to act like he's on the same level as Picard and Riker. He's the equivalent of internet comments.
You should doubt everything you hear. Pull it apart and see if the pieces themselves make any sense. Examine the logic and look for flaws in it that make the conclusion invalid. Ask questions.
You SHOULD doubt me, absolutely. Hold everything up to the light. A very important question to ask is "why am I being told this? Who's interests is served by telling me this?" Examine every piece.
For example, in the article, notice how everything is "seemingly" "implied" or "appears to". Those aren't definitive words. Those are gossip words. No concrete claim is actually made. Just the appearance of one. The sources are just other random Twitter comments speculating.
"It's probably not true, but you know, it COULD be true".
That's exactly how they get you. Then the next time you see a story like this, all you think is "yeah, haven't I heard something like this before?" and confirm the new BS you're being fed.
This instance isn't true. This is someone manipulating you. Like, the manipulation you're afraid of? It's right here.
And now you have to wonder, who gains from making you believe this one is real? I'll leave that one up to you. But in the words of George Carlin: "It's a big club, and you ain't in it".
Sorry you're being downvotted by the misinformed. It's not even in the format for ChatGPT, especially the part about being out of tokens. It's been pointed out already that that is psuedo-code, not actual code. It's meant to look like something ChatGPT would say.
It's a troll/ragebait account.
This isn't news. At all. This is basically reporting on "the hacker known as 4Chan".
Exactly. It doesn't increase suicidal thoughts, it just reminds some that it's an answer to their thoughts. The solution is reducing the stigma so that people can talk about them freely instead of bottling them up until they reach that point.
Exhibit A right here. If you disagree, you're a troll/shill or Russian bot. Ffs people like you completely destroy meaningful discourse here and then you blame everyone else.
The echochamber formed fast and hard here. It's really sad to see. It feels less like a new place and more like another clubhouse. And ffs, content is so slow. Gotta surf top of all time and still barely find content.
Nope, not a bot and anti-Biden registered Dem. You guys always want to Strawman anti-Biden comments as either "angry conservatives" or "Russian-psyops". You don't actually address the concerns either, just brush them off as trolls. Discourse on Lemmy is a echo-chambered joke already. It doesn't need trolls to ruin it, you've done plenty well yourselves.
This is like the 3rd version of the article at this point. It's mentioned in other articles. What is mentioned in this one is they used devices to pretend to be active during times they were expected to be. You know, fraud.
They used company computers to do another companies work. That's theft. Just like you want to comment on wage theft and the like, this is employee theft. Now, if you want to argue that it's justified, that's one thing. But don't reframe this as "well they were just doing nothing anyways". No, they used computers and resources that explicitly weren't theirs for their own benefit. Sounds A LOT like the wage theft you want to complain about when it's an employer doing it, but suddenly it's ok when the tables are turned. Nah, it's still an immoral act.
