He probably took a nap because he was trapped in there and desperately trying to get out for hours and hours. Poor thing was probably exhausted as fuck trying to escape.
I like the stuff Threat Interactive did about Digital Foundry and calling out UE5 bullshit temporal smearing and all the performance-robbing bullshit. Our games looked better 10 years ago than they do now, and performed better to boot.
Digg is excited about "AI" moderation. So, they're gonna be going the route of banning users for wrongthink just as Reddit did. I don't think it's going to be that popular.
This is the part that makes you a bad person no one wants to be around.
Again. Wrong. Plenty of family and friends, and a whole region of my state who come to me for advice on cnc related shit, so you missed the mark there too.
Only people who avoid me are well...people like you, who think you need to "display" how good of a person you are. Most normal people understand humor and aren't perpetually offended. Go touch some grass and meet some people outside for once. The majority of people on Lemmy and Reddit are not what the world would consider 'normal'.
Fuck that. Why do I need to be better? I don't give 2 shits about virtue signalling. I don't have to convince the world that I'm a good person, I know my own virtues and I know that I am; so I'm allowed to joke about horrific shit all the fuck I want.
All of this performative outrage from people is silly. You're not a bad person just because you like dark humor or shitposting.
Pandora; I use the terminal client Pianobar in Linux.
But I'm not a music nerd like you seem to be. I want RADIO, without ads. I pick a song, Pandora picks other music like it to play. I don't have time to dick with "albums being in order" kinda shit.
The first people who "wanted to help" when my family bought a hotel to renovate, were the ones who robbed us blind. 2 of them were homeless, and we gave them a place to live. Still stole everything we owned.
I'd say it's still normal to be wary of people's true intentions.
So shitposters were shitposting. Don't be bitches and act surprised when people are offended. Own that shit. It was meant to offend, that's what makes it funny. I'll join their discord and shitpost too. Call me a "bad person" all you want. idgaf.
We didn't shift cultural perception at all. We may have enacted laws, but the people aren't any more or less receptive than they have been. That will take generations. Only thing that happened is that people hid it. Take a good long look at US politics and tell me that gay people and black people are any more accepted than they were...as half the population looks to tear down the institutions which allowed their equality to happen...
You haven't changed people. Your society hasn't changed what people are. They've only changed what you see from the outside. It's only people like you, who have never had to live in the dregs of society who have this rosey ideal of the world.
Culture comes and goes. Shifts and ebbs and flows. Humanity may take longer to evolve, but that also means that what has evolved is much more stable, and much more rock solid than 'civility' could ever budge. We have higher-order thinking brains, and lower-order feeling brains. The lower-order feeling brain is the one that drives sex, food, hunger, and survival. That tribalistic instinct comes from that lower-order brain, and no amount of education will ever eliminate how it functions. The only way to do that would be eugenics, and the world has decided that is a "bad thing".
Our major advantage as a species is that we evolve faster culturally than most species can genetically.
Can we? Is this a statement of fact, or is this just wishful thinking on your part? Because I know quite a bit about history and, time and time again this doesn't seem to be true whatsoever. We are tribalistic by nature, and we've never been able to permanently break this fact.
It's not appealing to tribalism, it's understanding of the factual nature of ourselves. You have to know the worst of humanity, because you're never going to rid yourself of it. Many things will knock us down as people to our most basic of instincts, and these basic rules still govern our actions.
I happen to live in the real world, not some idealistic utopia of what the world "could be".
Are you talking about the 1996 side scroller? I'm still seeding that torrent.
