In a sense, yeah. Not that they shouldn't be criticised, but that they shouldn't be taken seriously. Just read every post and comment as if it has a /s at the end and you'll have a more enjoyable time

Yeah, the premise was awesome, world building was decent, but just too teen drama imo

Are you sure the bed mesh gets loaded? Maybe when you switched profiles in your slicer you lost the start g-code that does that

SEO started killing the internet long before the genAI wave yeah. I was also always a bit mad at the concept in general. Surely search engine optimization is something for.. search engines, not websites? I hate that we ended up changing the way we create websites in order to appease The Machine, instead of it getting better at surfacing quality content

Does this imply that previously killing women wasn't criminal in Italy?

Are you being dense on purpose or what?

In America we have nice gender-neutral crimes

Wow, so progressive

Agree, those behind recruitment for targeting, misleading and brainwashing good people, those behind military command for destabilising whole regions for nothing but profit, and those behind the economic system pushing so many young people to see enlisting as the only viable way to provide for their family have a huge role and are ultimately the real source of the scene depicted in the comic. But as you said, multiple things can be true at once, and this doesn't absolve the guy on the trigger side of their individual responsibility

I really wish more people understood that saying something anti-american does not automatically make you pro-china or pro-russia. Killing people halfway across the world in countries you're not even at war with is not ok, and doing it for the money is possibly even worse. I know many are desperate, and most want to defend their country instead of shooting other poor people in some desert. But in the end, each soldier is responsible for accepting being part of that senseless violence, of being the one to pull the trigger, in exchange for money.

 
 

Found this while surfing the webz, thought you might it as interesting and amusing as I did. Hopefully it's not too OT.

It's a mix of piracy history, code golfing, free speech activism, art, digital community, and general ingenuity that ends up being a critique of digital copyright under the DMCA. Also found the quote at the end of the table to be sadly still very relevant.

As long as I am mayor of this city [Jersey City, New Jersey] the great industries are secure. We hear about constitutional rights, free speech and the free press. Every time I hear these words I say to myself, That man is a Red, that man is a Communist. You never hear a real American talk like that. -- Frank "I am the law" Hague (1896-1956)
