I want to play that so bad right now. The cat like movement with wall-climb, plus the alien vision is easily one of my top 5 unique gaming experiences.

What in the actual fuck?
This is like a physical embodiment of Poe’s law.
Xitting, pronounced “shitting”
Who told you western teenagers were too dumb to understand this fact and would fail to include the remedies to their ideology when they rile up against capitalism?
TIL I didn’t know the meaning of normies.
It’s not a word I use but when I saw it first, I thought it meant neurotypical, then after a while I saw it in a more political context and thought it meant centrist. Turns out, it just means mainstream. I think.
What exactly does this word mean?
Or conversely, a Christian apologist coming to an atheist community and saying “if god isn’t real why do good things” as if declaring you are a poorly educated sociopath is a good way to challenge people’s well formed ideas.
I’ve spent quite a bit of time trying to explain to some people why “woke leftists” are so quick to shut them up that they feel like they aren’t given a right to speak their minds. “Woke” ideas are generally more developed and complex than “common sense” ideas, which requires some thought being put into them while they evolve from basic to their current level, so when you challenge a person’s developed idea with a superficial, usually knee jerk level question or critique, you’re most likely engaging in a line of thinking they were done with quite early in their evolution of the idea you’re trying to challenge.
YSK it’s a lot. Alot is a fictional character created to illustrate this point.
Even orange Cheetos can be charged with criminal acts sometimes!
And with Threads potentially federating, it’s pretty ominous
To the top with you!
Little guys lapping up right wing propaganda sure make it extremely difficult to fight the elite, tho.
They become merely another instrument of the “up” of suppressing the “down” when you’re feeling frustrated, helpless, and hopeless all the time.
Right now, we can already recognize lower quality bots within conversation. AI generated “art” is already very distinct to everyone to the point almost nobody misses it.
Language is a human instinct. Our minds create it, we can use it in all sorts of ways, bend it to our will however we want.
By the time bots become good enough to be indistinguishable online, they’ll either be actually worth talking to, or they will simply be another corporate shill.
I looked it up and this came up.
I only took introductory German so I have no idea what this is but I think it’s a law or something.
That ship has sailed, both ways I’m afraid.
Not only reddit made it exceedingly clear that they aren’t backtracking, 3rd party developers equally clearly stated they are out.
I don’t see this situation reversing.
Right? It’s just that good!
I somehow skipped over Hollow Knight until now. I’m playing that this week, and maybe forever.
The game is dope.
<insert yo mama joke here>
We want to discuss topics. This is a place to do that.
Simple need, simple solution.
You don’t need an extra incentive to make people talk about things if people talking about things is the thing you want. You don’t want to incentivize people who don’t want to talk about things to be active somewhere you want people to talk about things because then those people will start doing the thing your’e incentivizing them for instead of talk about things.
I personally only want people who want to talk about things here, and don’t want people who don’t want to talk about things.
The extreme profit oriented business culture of the US combined with the human nature of bandwagons make these sort of disgusting practices possible.
Corporations are justified, by default, in anything they can do to increase profit, and will do so until there’s enough public backlash to negate the amount of profit that practice makes.
The public backlash is tied to the social momentum the idea has. Because profitability is the default idea to be promoted, you can’t say something like “don’t do this obviously profitable thing because it’s bad for people” unless there’s enough people around you who’ll get on the bandwagon. If suddenly some influential person or a critical number of schmucks say the opposite, then everyone is defending the corporation’s, not only the right, but the duty to be profitable.
It’s an unpleasant way to live, really, but people are creatures of habit and won’t easily go against the culture they grow up in.
Right? Both the Israeli and Qatari governments suck ass
