  • Guess it's time to wake up.

  • I didn't say that victims can't be abusers, nor did I say that he was a hero.

    People who've done harm need to be prevented from causing further harm, but it's important to acknowledge the root cause of their behavior if you want to stop future iterations.

    I think that the OP is entirely a joke, but that it comes from the very real villain of systemic injustice that pressures us all to lash out. I think one could see the film as inspirational insofar as being inspired to take violent action, but I would hope they direct their aggression towards worthy targets.

  • I'm pretty sure the bad guy was the fucked-up system that tortured him into his behavior. He's a victim as much as any of the people he hurt.

  • Everything being said on both sides in those screenshots doesn't really mean much to me without data to show it's actually the case.

    My personal feeling is that I don't care to own most games in the first place and would be happy getting them all from the library the same way I do with books. Without Gamepass I wouldn't have played things like Payday 3 or Grounded in the first place because I won't purchase them. The alternative for me is piracy.

  • Celebrities are already role models by default; that's just how fame works. Do you want them to be good ones or bad ones?

  • I think it's like how everyone hated Biden/Harris, but there was a common sentiment to vote for them anyway because they're better than the alternative.

  • Coincidentally, this is the latest drama on my WoW server:

  • The new administration has also introduced Christian prayer at the start of its meetings, with a Reform councillor, the group whip Dan Price, saying the UK was a “Christian country”.

    Cool.

  • It wouldn't work that way. Individual Pokemon are made up of many stat values that make them much more unique than gacha characters and skins. My Espeon from Gale of Darkness can't be replaced with another Espeon.

  • I'm just lucky enough to have one at my apartment building, and very wasteful neighbors.

  • I'm in an apartment building, so I just browse the one here whenever I take the trash out. I don't think anyone has noticed, or they've elected to mind their own business if they have.

    There's so much stuff that could still be used that it honestly isn't funny, and that's just in my own bin. How much more is being wasted across the country? But at least it's in the recycling and not the trash, so that's something, I guess.

  • No, but I did get an Xbox that only needed a power cable.

  • Digging through e-waste bins is one of my hobbies.

  • Is it meaningful to attend in Europe? If so how does it work?

  • I don't love the disregard for plant life just because they lack the central nervous system of animals, but this isn't an argument in favor of eating animals. If you want to argue it's better for us to die than to live via harm, that's one thing, but if you accept we have the right to live at the expense of other life forms then the goal of many becomes to minimize suffering.

    While plants do have sensory experiences which elicit behaviors, they don't experience the world in a personal way; they're like a robot or generative AI. When a dog suffers, it has a concept of self and an understanding of what is happening to it, and it will carry memories of the experience which negatively influence its quality of life.

  • It looks like that's a different app, so no. OP pointed out some subtle differences though. It's roughly the same, but with the layout altered slightly. I think it probably looks like a more drastic change to those not already using the grid view; I had forgotten list was even an option.

  • Oh, I see. Thank you. The differences were too subtle for me, and I only just now learned what a bottom sheet is! :)

    Still, it doesn't seem a very significant change. I'm neither pleased nor upset by it, but rather wondering what the point is. Maybe the cosmetic changes are simply a small addition to more important changes under the hood?

  • What's new about it? The screenshot looks like my Firefox looks already, and it's been this way for a long time. Did I maybe forget signing up to test beta features??

  • You want a handful of robotics nerds to overthrow capitalism for you?
