I mean Neil Peart took the right ideas from “individualism” : personal liberties, and dedicating yourself do doing the hard, necessary work. Selling organs and not paying taxes so corporation scan profit off hospitals isn’t what’s in Rush’s lyrics; it’s the collective oppressing the individual, which happens under many ideological forms.

You’ve got most of it right, the part you didn’t show you picked up on/I didn’t make clear enough is the complaints that AI is taking all the electricity and water away from a town. Who the fuck gave the permission to have a data center be built that would impact the quality of life of the people living in an area? Why wasn’t the zillon dollar corporation responsible for this increase in power and water consumption?
And then because most people are using corporate ai with shitty , generic prompts, there’s never a chance to discuss using it as a technical art form or within it’s accurate placement in art history, which is something that would be intellectually stimulating to discuss.

I hate that the anti AI stuff is 90% idiotic planning permission and capitalism, 5% “The idiots making this put no effort into it” and 5% “I just don’t like it, yuck”.

when you say resize it, do you mean after you go into the edit menu? I find it a bit frustrating that I can’t resize it without going in there, but I usually don’t have to anyway.

I don’t think I’m using any really fancy KDE features I just like that I can bodge together whatever I want it to look like… which is basically windows with re-orderable applications, shoving most things I have in the background into the system tray, and jerking off furiously that I don’t have to touch my phone because of KDE connect, but I think you can install it on non KDE systems, since most of the apps that start with K in package managers has some KDE affiliation, but run on any linux system regardless of KDE Plasma graphical shell or any alternative like GNOME or MATE

I mean, based on their previous most recent titles, and what the ad budget is going to be, they are going to expect at least a billion dollars in profit

Part of me thinks that this game will always sell gangbusters no matter what.
Part of me thinks that this is going to be the one where no one fucking gives a shit because of all the BS that R* have been doing since GTA5, and the oversaturation of open world games, and the stagnation of the series is going to make it sell WAY less than expected and fuck them over significantly.
I barely gave a fuck about 5. I’m 100% not going to buy this one.

All kinds of winter decorations, smack dab in the middle of summer.
IDK, are the northerners having opposite season decorations for christmas?

It’s the same, and really weird for me. Like they’re unironically wholesale swallowing cultural domination. All kinds of winter decorations, smack dab in the middle of summer. Have some pride man.

- Comment on What do you call the beleif that gods are just higher beings on other planes of existence? 1 week ago:
Like what do you call it when you believe gods aren’t gods? If you don’t believe they’re gods then who are you even indicating?
Let me give a possible interpretation. These are hypothetical, both in terms of argument , and in OPs viewpoints.
We live in a simulation. The “higher beings” are the admins that are running the simulation. They can change the settings of the simulation and break the rules with their avatars. They live as common folk on their own plane. Jobs, wife, kids, food and sleep etc. So they don’t have superpowers, they just get to mess with our reality but not theirs.

- Comment on US government uses Halo images in a call to 'destroy' immigration, Microsoft declines to comment 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think so. It’s unlikely, but not implausible. I don’t think ICE have a list of “don’t arrest” people, and not everyone knows what every CEO looks like. They might run into him randomly and just act on it.
I don’t think Satya Nadal is going out in public like regular people, but it could still happen.

I’m sure if Satya Nadal were to become a target of ICE he’d have a comment.

it’s called opportunism :
- Find a claw machine with a toy leaning near the exit
- go for that toy
- the claw moves it just a little bit, but because it’s near the exit it gets nudged closer
- if you did it right, it falls into the hole
