We need a jingle for Enshittification.
- Comment on When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game? 1 day ago:
I really want to try it, also because I am studying French and it has full voice over. Problem is, I never managed to play JRPGs, so I am afraid I would be throwing money away.

I think whoever designed the ads in CP2077 deserves a special prize.

That’s why I specified moments designed to be funny.

That would actually be true if companies were run by the people doing the work.

That’s exactly why I was so surprised by Dispatch! It has stuff at the same level of Sam & Max: Hit the Road whose the next door shop from the office I will never forget: “Bosco’s Guns, Liquors, Baby Needs”

The European kind. Not the Extended Universe nor Eastern University.

My country? I am from the EU!
Let’s try not to be offensive.

From the entry for “zaibatsu” on Wikipedia:
Under the Allied occupation after the surrender of Japan, a partially successful attempt was made to dissolve the zaibatsu. Many of the economic advisors accompanying the SCAP administration had experience with the New Deal and were highly suspicious of monopolies and restrictive business practices, which they felt to be both inefficient, and to be a form of corporatocracy (and thus inherently anti-democratic).
The only difference? The zaibatsu actually diversified their operations.

Came here to say this!
I am not into crafting or upgrading at all, but the story, quests and simple but cool-looking combat kept me on it more than I am willing to admit.

It is literally AI taking time out of of your life, I don’t see how that doesn’t make sense to you.
- Comment on A lot of media depict the United States as being invaded by fascists from the outside. Nobody thought fascism will come from within until now. 3 weeks ago:
Sorry if this offends some US citizens, but seen from here this just seems a slightly louder and smooth-riding drift in the same direction the USA has always navigated towards.

- Comment on Arizona ‘VPN’ searches surge amid Pornhub ban in state 3 weeks ago:
You don’t need an organized group to have people who compromised on logic forcing their views on others. Sure, an organized group can be more efficient, but it is also more visible as a threat.
- Comment on Arizona ‘VPN’ searches surge amid Pornhub ban in state 3 weeks ago:
I wish! I would be happy to be their Lovecraftian abyss.
- Comment on Arizona ‘VPN’ searches surge amid Pornhub ban in state 3 weeks ago:
No, the problem is accepting uncritically anything that comes from a self-defined leader, and, even in the absence of that, accepting that any critical input in a social system should come from people that have compromised on logic and reason at some level.

Finally, I found another one like me. Prepare for a shower of shit in the comments, as most people here defend religion strenously.

That is the title. There is an article beyond that.

You are talking about 2 different applications of AI to the job market.
- Comment on do you remember a time when societies were so polarized and shifted so much to the right like today? How long did it last? 3 weeks ago:
I just went to school in Italy.
This should tell you how guilty of fascism is everyone in Italy who even just entertains the idea to reproduce completely or in part laws similar to the ones of the guy.
L’unico fascista buono è il fascista morto.

I have no idea how regulated it is right now within the EU, outside of GDPR, but surely there are different laws locally. I don’t know if after Brexit something has been added to such laws in the UK, but I must say that even before that it was obvious that the UK LOVED their cameras.

In 52 m2 I can offer a matrimonial bed for a couple visiting to get job interviews for some time, not much more.

I am Italian and I have much fewer reasons to feel like you, but I still do and, although loving the friends I made there, I know I will never again set foot in the USA, since this comes from a culture of surveillance dating back more than a century.
I am actually offering temporary accomodation to any of my friends who may want to try his luck in the EU.

I didn’t read your “powerful” as an adjective qualifying the fascists, but as one qualifying the countries susceptible to see the rise of fascism, and in the case of Italy, both are wrong.
Also, just like the Danish government nowadays, Mussolini came from a Leftist background and later started applying authoritarian and later totalitarian policies and measures.

You called 1920s Italy “powerful”?! As an Italian…let’s say I remain baffled.

Control was not my piece of cake either, but playing the Ashtray Maze sequence without knowing what I was going for was one of the most exhilarating gaming moments I ever lived.
