- Comment on Cloudflare defies Italy’s Piracy Shield, won’t block websites on 1.1.1.1 DNS 1 week ago:
At no point did I mention volume, I inferred education. I actually find just yelling louder to be worse than censorship, as all it does is increase the level of tension and push people towards extremes. Which helps no one.
I also didn’t mean to infer that we shouldn’t use band-aids at all, just that it’s a simple treatment, not a cure. Blocking certain speech and rhetoric can help to a degree… but not if it’s the only thing you do.
The problem with current strategies is that no one wants to go beyond that first step. Whether it’s censorship, or shouting.

Censorship is, at best, a band-aid. And they can always find ways around it. The best solution isn’t to block them from view temporarily, but to teach people to evaluate what they say with empathy and critical thinking.
That is, of course, difficult to accomplish. But then again, there’s no easy solutions, only easy excuses.

I mean, they acknowledge that it’s wrong, and they acknowledge that Bruce Wayne is not stable enough to have power by having him give the power to Lucius.
Not all scenes are so one-note that it only ever has one meaning or message.

No Man’s Sky has added thousands of generic resource gathering tasks by now!
I have tried playing it maybe half a dozen times and come to the same conclusion each time: “This is it?”
It’s a great game for wasting your time in the most banal tasks possible, but not much more.

Yeah, that’s probably the worst thing that’s going to result from fumbling.

“Yeah, we’re gonna do this new fangled form of piracy. It’s like the old way, but without the boats and parrots and stuff. We’re just stealing stuff now.”

The excuse is, and has always been, “Because we can”. Never think otherwise.

Apparently it lets you chat with an AI agent to power-browse the internet.

Probably one of those pre-announcements. Or they had AI determine the announcement date.

- Comment on Video Game Physical Software and Hardware Sales Just Had the Worst November in the U.S. Since 1995 - IGN 4 weeks ago:
By that logic, no media exists (and also always exists) as it occupies a superposition of both being on and not being on physical media.
What the fuck are you talking about? It’s both digital media and physical media. They can not exist without each other. The only difference being that physical media bought in a store is permanently stored on its own medium… and considering we’re talking about permanent storage anyways… what difference would that make?
- Comment on Video Game Physical Software and Hardware Sales Just Had the Worst November in the U.S. Since 1995 - IGN 4 weeks ago:
That’s still physical media, though. Just one you “create” yourself. You could say “This isn’t a hunk of plastic, therefore I’m not contributing to e-waste”… but that only matters if you decide to throw away the game after making a copy.
Drives still fail eventually, just like disks and cards.

Well if you can’t get SSDs, what are you going to use for storage? I doubt tape drives are best as daily drivers.
