Weiner kaiju, lol…

You assume I was for the 20 year genocidal war? Why? IMHO it was a huge fucking mistake too.

I’d have ever so much more sympathy if they hadn’t just spent over a year genociding Palestine…

Nope, nope, nope. It’s not like I was ever a Telegram fan, but never again, nope.

Egads, I was unaware that was as thing too. That’s even stupider!

I feel like that was an engineered perception based in a vocal group of idiots, TBH. I played the second game at launch and it rocked me to my core. The story was strong in my opinion.

Pedro and Bella had good chemistry. Bella without Pedro? Not so much most of the time. Which is really frustrating because occasionally Bella shows a flash of brilliance and you’re like “OK, she can act.” But too many times Isabela has had to carry the scenes it feels like.

And Abby… I know they have said she doesn’t need to be physically jacked for the TV show, but I’m sorry, I am not really buying it. No offense to the actress they did choose, just not working in this particular role for me at all.

Having said all that, I am still basically enjoying Season 2? A lot of it is really well done, TBH. Just suffering from some unfortunate character dynamics that I think have disappointed a lot of viewers more than me apparently.

400 Boys was decent, I chuckled at Close Encounters and I did quite enjoy How Zeke Got Religion despite the whole WW2 bombers thing being pretty tired as a trope. The rest of them were pretty unmemorable, alas.

I was especially disappointed at Spider Rose? I don’t know how that story didn’t hit harder since Sterling is one of my favorite authors.

Honestly I have used Blue Sky and Mastodon and Mastodon feels a lot more elegant to me, personally.

What I don’t get is why anyone would ever choose commercial social media again given there are Activity Pub clones for practically everything now, where you aren’t the product. So many people learned nothing from the ongoing Twitter debacle and the zillion Facebook privacy scandals apparently.

I mean, that seems relatively obvious to me (best actor and actress being separate categories that is), and I bet they’re trying to stir up shit from a really simple statement she made? Quite possibly they also stoop to hand-wringing about “whatever category should we put a transgender person in?” too.

I refuse to read the article and give them clicks though.

It is always hilarious and strange to see the buy-in on these things. We have a single coder in his late 60s that has bought in hard to spicy autocorrect. Meanwhile, the youngest on our team (like 22) won’t touch it with a 10 ft pole.

The other issue is just the morality of it. Do I know people that got rich on Bitcoin? Yes. Do I feel like they’re participating in a pyramid scheme still? Also yes. And with spicy autocorrect, where they got their training data for any and all of these models is so freaking morally bankrupt, and they’re desperate to paper over that and make it “ok” for businesses to use it.

Had to click through to change my downvote to an upvote, lol.

Literally all we need is everyone to kick in a couple bucks a month and I think everything would be in great shape. I think the user base is like 65k+ users currently?

They need to get the fuck rid of that executive. Whoever has been running FF the last couple years has done a terrible job in picking directions for them to go, IMHO.

Yeah, I’m still in AZ, thus my question, haha.

Ah, cool! Well AC pretty much solves my hesitations here in AZ, lol. But I know a lot of northern states still might want AWD as an option.
