Very sound advice.
I had time to think for a bit. Please be advised that I'm not an American citizen and the following is purely conjecture.
Basically, I believe the US is FUBAR. There are 4 possible scenarios for the 5th of November:
- Trump gets so demented it's getting impossible to get him propped up, he has to concede somewhere around that time
- Trump finally gets thrown in jail, before election day
- Biden wins - right now it looks like it would be a close call
- Trump wins
The article mentions, as many have before, that the "conservative" way of "thinking" has become purely emotional. So what do you think will happen if either of the three first will come true? Someone will seize the day and shout some bullshit conspiracy or another and now 20-30% of your emotionally driven population will get set to "angry" and "revenge".
If he simply wins: Mission accomplished!
Now that I've thought a bit more, even (maybe especially?) if Biden wins in a landslide, the conspiracy spin could even be made stronger. Yikes. It might be the time of troubles on a very large scale and I reaaaaaaaaaly hope I'm totally wrong with all this!
The game itself is great, the UI/UX is just on another level. The UI has no ambiguity, is very responsive to input and just feels smooth. The wording on the cards is also excellent and consistent.
StS is a joy to play and I bet it's also really great on the Steam Deck.
To be fair, they used setTimeout() and not thread.sleep() because the latter isn't possible out of the box in JS ^^
Obviously there a people in charge now who will never understand the Streisand effect. They could have kept it quiet and just... allow... the technical adept users to do their thing. Now, they are the laughing stock and get unwanted attention. Also, from my layman understanding, this shit won't fly in the EU at all.
Or, to say it differently: This is the best thing to happen to Mozilla in quite a long time and I'm a fan.
Holy hyper-normalization :O
ETA: One could figure out the state of our media and our (online) existence by just thinking a bit about those beautiful hashtags.
And I hope we all learned to sanitize our database inputs!
I'd call him Bobby. Little Bobby Tables.
"Bowerick Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged was a being who became immortal after an accident with a few rubber bands, a liquid lunch, and a particle accelerator. After a period of total boredom, especially on Sunday afternoons, he decided to insult everyone in the entire universe in alphabetical order."
AI is the framework of a new digital economy, not the product.
That is one interesting sentence. Thanks.

I do not believe asking questions should be labeled as a crisis.
