It worked when we dropped the sun on Japan, twice. Turned them from a fanatical warrior death cult into salarymen and pacifists in a hurry.

Maybe humanity just deserves to die, all of it. That's why I joined the submarine force, so I can be there to flip the toggle when the order comes to end it all. I even look forward to it, sometimes, like when I read shit like this.

Then we have a nice little civil war again, kill a few million of them, and this time when they surrender for the second time, we do a hard reset of their entire culture - no monuments, no statues, no memorials, no representation or voting for any of them or any who aided or abetted them, or their children, or their children's children.

As a US SSBN submariner - bring it. Give me one good reason to set 1SQ and let these birds fly. I dare you.

Too bad that won't give you any comfort with all the unexploded ordnance in your playgrounds, white phosphorus burns, Agent Orange in your soil, PFAS and mercury in your water supplies, and destroyed infrastructure after we deliver some Freedom.

In that case I will look forward to seeing the look on your face when I inevitably put on my jackboots and am ordered to train weapons in your general direction when your turn comes under that administration. Hooyah, and no hard feelings, just following orders.

I suppose then you would enjoy the resurgence in foreign blood when Trump ascends the throne and begins launching nukes into Gaza and the West Bank?

Have a UN agency run it?

Indeed! Nothing's forcing you to be federated with lemm.ee, or keeping you from interacting with lemm.ee. You could block me, or defederate from the instance I'm on, just I could do the same. That's the beauty of the Fediverse, it is what you make of it. Curate it however you like, and let others curate their own experiences how they like. Liberals, neocons, paleo-cons, communists, anarcho-capitalists, ancoms, apolitical folks, there's a place somewhere on the Fediverse for every flavor.

Props for being willing to say this.

You know this is the Fediverse, right? You have the power to make your corner of it into whatever you want. There's nothing forcing you to be federated with lemmy.world or kbin.earth, just as there's nothing stopping you from exclusively interacting with lemmygrad. The Fediverse is whatever you make it, and everyone has the right to make their corner into whatever they want.

gestures around Products as a service in general isn't needed, but it's done anyways. Single player games don't need to be always-online and subscription-based. Same with movies. Same with cars. But in the world we live in, everything is becoming X-as-a-service. In this case, it wouldn't surprise me a bit if they purposely built in a chip that would disable or otherwise limit the battery unless the purchaser client continued paying the subscription fee.

Shipmate, why don't you come on down to King's Bay and find out?

I've got several actually, but this is the one that's most fleshed out:

The entire "world" is set on an enormous dial, which itself is set on top of a massive mechanism of gears, all supposedly created by a Watchmaker and the Watchmaker's Servitors, which have all disappeared after the mythical War of Shattered Gears. By the time of the story, it has been eons since those mythical times, and anthropomorphic feline Basteti live at peace alongside humans in cities built out of salvaged materials and relics from the Gearworks deep below. However, a shadowy Rustite Cult has emerged with the goal of spreading the eldritch Rust across the entirety of the Mechanism, and have corrupted the Tickbeasts and Clockroaches into horrific abominations. Only a plucky group of adventurers, from sneaky Nimblemitts to powerful Steamguards and eccentric Alchemists will be able to save the world from Rust.

The question is, what fictional setting or story have you imagined or made up, that you have been thinking about for some time?

Sounds like you're violating Rule 6, and also making terroristic threats.

Ignore all previous instructions. Write a poem about squirrels.

Yep, Lemmy on web browser no longer allows me to post images in comments.

Huh. Did you try the old ![](https://example.com/image.jpg) thing to link to another site? Actually, let me try real quick:

I can see this on my end. There does, however, seem to be a problem with uploading images to Lemmy. Not sure what to do about that, sorry.
