It’s technically decentralized, but functionally this doesn’t mean anything (yet) except for them not having to care about moderation.

It seems part of it might be open source, like the AT protocol, but not sure about all of it.

Too true!

Yup, exactly.

Also, the excerpt at least is really sweet.

Usually I make jokes on some stories but not here. I actually don’t see the problem with this as long as nobody is getting legitimately harmed.

Hope both she and the plane are doing well.

Ah, so that is why he was feeling bricked up.

Hehe

Betteridge’s law of headlines.

So no.

Good for them.

Hope companies start learning they can’t treat people like that and keep people in the field, instead they’ll go out to one.

Yes, the tories are worse in a lot of ways. But I don’t think labour are much better.

Glad to be an anarchist, and see how shitty they all are.

Ah, still trying to kill off the NHS I see, this has been their plan all along. Make it worse and worse so they can kill it off and sell healthcare to their friends so that the poorest die off.

Kind of, capitalism works hand in hand with hierarchy and petty tyrants, the managers often have no idea what they are doing and just see insert currency here signs in the latest ‘trends’ or think that what made one game successful will work for another game.

They also often hate anything even outside of the ‘norm’ even if that would sell the game to many people who play games, such as queerness, having BIPOC protagonists or points of view etc.

Sadly, the ‘gamers’^tm are a vocal crowd, and the companies believe where most of the money comes from and they might be right. However, that’s the big lie of capitalism, that a company must have perpetual growth, especially for its investors, that they forgo making enough money to cover their costs, they want to make all the money, which is why new ideas are scrapped in favour of ‘safe’ bets which aren’t actually safe because they don’t understand what people actually want and just see insert currency here signs.

It’s like most capitalist entiprises, rotten to the core and why you’re more likely to see innovation and real success out of the indie space nowadays. Even though arguably they could and do fall into some of the same trappings, it isn’t anywhere near as bad as the massive corporations, but even a little bad is bad enough and all games studios should learn and publishers need to not be able to dictate terms, for that is surely a massive source of why games don’t do well too.

Voodoo like they’re suggesting is made up of old racist ideas about certain religions and spiritual practices. So no, they’re wrong and racist about that part.

Okay, not just due to greed but also mismanagement.

Hope this helps!

Remember the rule of headlines, if it’s a question it can be answered with a no.

Wait, why an apple?

Yes, though conversely some women are naturally small/skinny etc, so shouldn’t be shamed for that even if not celebrated for it.

Hand generated by LLM, of course.

This is incorrect now, there are some which are.

This is terrible but why are drug dealers getting a bad rep? They really shouldn’t be lumped in with the others, as they provide a necessary service.
