A split keyboard and a good chair improved my desk comfort more than anything else I've tried.
It still grinds my gears that Warner Bros. patented the Nemesis System they used in their shadow of war/Mordor games. I'd love a whole genre of those kinds of games with different settings and themes.
Several cultures throughout history have used base 12 for their numbering! You can count to 12 on one hand by counting the segments of your fingers (excluding the thumb).
Settler-colonizers; not immigrants. These guys did things hundreds of thousands of times worse than the absolute worst actual immigrants do.
I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the final one is the symbol for "five" and it takes 5 strokes to draw. it'd be like drawing a 5 one segment at a time in an eight segment number display as the tally marks.
Side eyes BLM protests, Free Palestine demonstrations and generally most left wing events that are definitely never unjustly broken up by police.
I'm no defender of AI and it just blatantly making up fake stories is ridiculous. However, in the long term, as long as it does eventually get better, I don't see this period of low to no trust lasting.
Remember how bad autocorrect was when it first rolled out? people would always be complaining about it and cracking jokes about how dumb it is. then it slowly got better and better and now for the most part, everyone just trusts their phones to fix any spelling mistakes they make, as long as it's close enough.
Madison, the victim, told her story online and was met with the vitriolic, violent hatred you'd expect from a woman pointing out the misogyny of the internet's favorite tech boy. She shared her story mostly to warn other women what to expect from working there as well as a step in her own healing process.
She never wanted to sue them since they are much wealthier than her and she kind of just wanted to move past that part of her life. Linus Media Group isn't going to sue her for defamation because even if they can win, as they claim (which I personally have my own doubts, but I'm an outside observer with no legal education), it's still a very bad look.
Since no parties are bringing litigation to a court, the litigation happens in the court of public opinion.
well, their problem wasn't exactly because of the color of the suit
I think they were pointing to the media trying to shift the focus to race. "You're problem isn't because you're poor, it's because of all those nasty people who are different to you".
Anything to prevent class consciousness and organization.
Yeah, I agree with everything you just said, but make no mistake, the monsters committing genocide are still human beings. Denying that blurs the line of the purpose of violence done against them and makes it difficult to understand that we must constantly be vigilant against rhetoric and propaganda that advocates for genocide as it is scarily easy for people to fall into patterns of thinking that can justify genocide.
It is irresponsible to say that, because they are actively committing genocide against a population, they are no longer human beings and that is why they deserve violence. It's an unnecessary extra step that opens the door for the very same genocidal thinking. They are people who have engaged in genocide with no signs of slowing down or stopping, and for that one reason alone, deserve violence until their threat is quashed. That is enough for me; I see no reason or benefit to dehumanize them to justify righteous violence.
No, they are people. Ignorant, hateful, and actively supporting a genocide, but people nonetheless. My comment was explicitly calling out and criticizing the impulse to dehumanize the "enemy", real or imagined. Thinking of Zionist Israelis or Nazis as less than human not only perpetuates the mindset that allows these groups to carry out genocide, but at the same time denies how easy it is for average people to fall into such traps.
It leads to thought processes similar to "If you have to be less than human to support a genocide, then obviously what I support can't be genocide because I am definitely a human."
And I'm definitely not one of those "oh, we just have to talk to these hateful ignorant perpetuators of genocide because they simply don't understand why they're wrong". I'm of the opinion that violence is absolutely necessary to uphold equality if the situation has been left to get as bad as it has. I'm mostly just railing against the idea that people who support genocide are somehow less human because of that hatred.
She didn't write the Harry Potter books under her pseudonym, but a lot of her mediocre crime dramas are written under the name Robert Galbraith. The conversion therapy psychiatrist I'm talking about was named Robert Galbraith Heath.
Listen to how a large portion (obviously not all) Israelis talk about Palestinians. They genuinely do not view them as humans and certainly do not value their lives. They speak of the ongoing genocide with gleeful anticipation. People will literally go to the border to taunt Palestinian parents who've lost their children or the orphans themselves.
They're not shooting a 4 year old kid, they're simply shooting another "worthless" Palestinian. This way of thinking was and is specifically crafted to enable almost every genocide that has ever happened.
Not even just a man's name, but the name of one of the most infamous conversion therapy "psychiatrists" from the 20th century.
The real irony is misinterpreting starship troopers - a very on the nose critique of fascism - as fascist propaganda and then accusing others of not understanding it.
it's actually a really great conspiracy thriller. I'd fully recommend it. I'm sure right wing weirdos could read too much into it and find a message they agree with, but they do that with everything anyways.
I didn't find it overtly political beyond money = corruption = shady people being able to get away with shady stuff
His skin color.
Hopefully it's obvious I don't agree with that statement, but at the end of the day, that's what this case is really about.
