  • "The only problem about being immortal is that you need to drink blood, a set of ethical problems spanning a tetralogy", so I haven't really seen/read about the exact idea you're talking about. Got any media where people actually say your kind of Immortality is bad?

  • The "equity" from "Private Equity (has consumed America by Sam "Wendover Productions")? or which one? If you mean equality (also known as equity): do you mean how insisting on equality of e.g. external conditions (taxes, school curricula, etc.) is ableist or something?

  • The modern school equivalent of cheap pranks on computers isn't some elaborate virus, it's just pressing the "mail" or "calculator" keys on the keyboard for the guy next to you. Never personally witnessed anything more elaborate, though my classmate apparently distributed dubious batch files he wrote once

  • @carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone just said

    about a meme where it is much more obvious, but especially without context I think it could be said again that its mean to the depicted bandit to show im as grumpy and having a disfigured stereotypical bandit chin, except when you know these features have somehow caused him to become a bandit. If they are typical features of a bandit depiction, but not based on the actual appearance of bandits (or whatever the guy even is), then it is sadly a stereotype. I want more people to think these thoughts because I liked them.

  • I really want to know why they implemented a piece of software that's this complicated in assembly. Is it just speed? Then I also want to know what all the great numbers of video codecs I have just uncovered after clicking on "the input format must be .y4m" in their Readme. Since OP seem to know about the 306 options of the official AOM encoder a little, and rav1e also sounds rather CLI-heavy, this also gets my uneducated head wondering where these products are used. Do other app developers drop it in like ffmpeg? Probably. It also sounds like Disney & Co. just have some servers that they have scripted to "encode the corporate fortune". How true is this?

  • i didn't like the fifth one much either, though that may just be because it takes the sad but funny acceleration/power creep of stupidly impossible technology like bistromath, time travel, and (AI assisted!) multiverse time travel to its conclusion, it all stops feeling special, or because the only thing all this does to problems of capitalism (the cathedral of chalesm) and other human problems is make it more absurd (for comedic effect). idk i still left out like more than half the reason further books in the series feel more depressing than earlier ones, as I don't know it. Why is it a trilogy?

  • I've been thinking: if we're a nice kind of government, couldn't we just print the money we're going to use to for example, give americans in poverty 10000$ ? This would "just devalue the money the rich people have", so something about international exchange rates is propably the thing that stops me from mentally circumventing the freedom-based value that we can't just take money people have earned. really gross food for thought
