Then dig his corpse up too and give it cybernetic augmentations with which to kill its enemies

I literally swapped to Librewolf before the Rossman video was done. I was on Brave Browser before, but it's based on Chromium. Fuck Chromium and fuck Google. Fuck this shitty amoeba that tries to spread into and control everything.

I will post stupid shit on my federated forum and you will fucking live with it Google. Fuck you. Burn. It's time to break up the internet monopolies and do some trust busting. Someone pull FDR's rotten corpse out of the grave and put it back to work.

Nobody is going to say it here? I really, really like Syndicate. The original one.

Seems like a pretty reasonable request. Hopefully they get the tools they're after and then everyone can be even more connected again!

Okay, guess I just won't use it then if they defed from my primary instance. Glad they did this now and not later when they became bigger and more important.

If they're that into making a safe space then fine. Hopefully some other people will also make more free spaces and both of them can exist and everyone can be happy.

I realize that is a highly optimistic outlook to put it mildly. I must remain hopeful to avoid losing my mind, if I haven't already -.-

Moderator: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight's presidential debate. We have the esteemed pleasure of hosting the two leading candidates, former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden. Let's get started with our first question: How do you plan to address the current economic challenges facing our country?

Biden: Thank you, moderator. My esteemed opponent, Mr. Trump and I, share a vision. A vision of a dystopian America where our beloved corporate vampire overlords thrive. By preventing the housing bubble from crashing, we ensure that these vampiric entities can continue to feast on the blood of struggling workers. It's a win-win for them and a lose-lose for everyone else!

And let's not forget, my opponent doesn't even want to talk about mass homelessness. It's a powerful way to reduce CO2 emissions. Picture a nation where the streets are lined with tents, where the homeless huddle for warmth, and the carbon emissions decrease as they freeze to death. It's a brilliant plan to tackle climate change!

Trump: Let me tell you, folks, this radical communism thing that Sleepy Joe is proposing is a disaster! We need an oligarchical hell-state, believe me, but not like that! We'll have fast cheeseburgers on every corner, cheap diesel flowing through our veins, and coal-fired power plants pumping out beautiful, tremendous energy! Most importantly we'll grant oil companies the freedom to drill in our precious nature reserves and reduce red tape around dumping mutagenic waste in our wonderful rivers, which are so cheap and good for disposing of glowing liquids!

Moderator: Thank you for your responses. Moving on to the topic of foreign policy, how do you envision our relationship with Antarctica and the ongoing conflict with the radical penguin militia?

Joe Biden: By invading Antarctica, we not only secure the oil reserves, but also bring freedom to those dang polar bears, jack! In the process, we plan to triple the debt buying multi million dollar toilets for obsolete bombers. It's a win for Lockheed Martin and a win for wildlife conservation! What more could you ungrateful fucks ask for?

Donald Trump: You see, folks, even Sleepy Joe agrees with me on this one! We're going to invade Antarctica, and we're going to win bigly! Those penguins are a disaster, and they're laughing at us! We'll take their oil and give it to the oil companies, who are our best friends! And let me tell you, those polar bears, they love me! I'll make sure they get the best deals, like nobody's ever seen before! Penguins are losers, and we're going to win against them, mark my words! We'll be baking them like chickens for dinner!

Moderator: Thank you both for sharing your views. It's certainly been an interesting discussion. Now, let's move on to the closing statements.

Donald Trump: Folks, I've always said I'm the best at everything, and I'll be the best president for this great nation! We're going to have fast cheeseburgers, cheap diesel, and coal powerplants that'll make your head spin! We'll drill for oil wherever we want, even in the penguin-infested Antarctica! It's time to make America great again, just like it was during my tremendous presidency!

Joe Biden: My fellow Americans, I want to assure you that my plan will protect the interests of our beloved vampire overlords, it will skyrocket healthcare costs, and it will create mass homelessness while tripling the debt in just four years. We'll invade Antarctica, depose the radical penguin militia we armed, and bring freedom to the polar bears. It's time to embrace the soulless emptiness of our choices and pave the way for a dystopian future. Together, we can make this dark satire a reality!

Moderator: And with that, we conclude tonight's debate. Thank you to both candidates for joining us, and to our audience for tuning in! Now, as a finishing act to pay my sister's medical bills, the candidates will eat me, a middle class intern, alive!

It is fascinating to watch a lot of people who got purged from social media for being too leftist and flocked to a defederated forum created by free speech enjoyers go on to immediately start complaining about the lack of censorship and damning the concept of free speech having learned nothing in the process.

The most popular suggestion here seems to be isolating yourselves from any part of the Fediverse which doesn't accept your demands. Now, if we could just get the Nazis to be stupid enough to follow in your footsteps and curtail their own methods of ideological propagation, this place might actually start to be kind of chill.

Instead they keep fucking talking to people and trying to convince them of stuff, which has proven vastly more efficient in achieving their goals. I am severely disappointed in all of you for making Nazis look intelligent by comparison.

I welcome your down votes, as disapproval from you is a mark that my brain is not grossly malfunctioning.

If censorship is the answer, why have years of censorship failed to eradicate undesirable ideologies?

Coruscant is cyberpunk (lemmy.villa-straylight.social)

It’s got the low life high tech thing, the unfuckwithable slums the enforcers stay out of, glowing neon bullshit everywhere, an oppressive tyrannical regime with intense social stratification, and tons of different factions competing for influence in all the different SW eras. It’s also a megacity and there’s drugs and guns all over the place.

Star Wars itself isn’t cyberpunk overall (being a space opera and all), but Coruscant feels like it to me.

I’ve always been curious bout the possibilities of a live action series focused on the city. There’s so many different environments to play with and so many different groups of people to ally with or betray each other.

I mean, not that I’d want to see Disney do it, because it would be fucking awful. Just, you know, conceptually I think Coruscant is one of the coolest places in the franchise and always wanted to see more stuff set there outside the boring senate chambers and top level landing platforms we usually see.

This might be cliché, but I really like the 1995 Ghost in the Shell film. The spider tank, the depictions of firearms, the excellent soundtrack, and most interestingly its depiction of AGI. I'm forgetting a lot of the reasons I like it and should go see it again.
