It is not the case where I live. So probably some cultural thing of your area.

If you like GoT, you’d probably like Shogun

Resource centers. Makes sure the planets resources is not abused. Here is also the place for actually give back your used stuff, for reuse.

That is one hell of an incoherent logical leap.

It’s not woke if all the characters are black. Can you provide some examples of this?

It can feel “woke” if the characters were white and are now black, or if the character’s skin color is paraded around as some virtue signal or trophy. If the skin color of a character breaks an already established rule of the story world (for example, black skinned dwarves or elves in Lord of the Rings), that can also contribute to a “woke” feeling. The established rules of the world or story should not bend around or break just to ensure a diverse skin color of every race in the story.

Nobody complains about Mr. T in the A-Team, Denzel Washington as Robert McCall in The Equalizer, or Samuel L Jackson playing Mace Windu in Star Wars, because the color of their skin is not their only defining quality. They are well written and highly beloved characters that are important to their story, have equally as good acting and dialogue as the other characters in their stories, and are played by actors that are well qualified. Their characters feel like they were always meant to be there, and when they were written into their story, their skin color didn’t matter.

The same people who ruled it today, the immensely wealthy.

That is what happens when you ruin things that aren’t yours.

Mio , to asklemmy in What things would you standardize globally if you were the Supreme Leader? All violations punishable by death.

Get rid of all lock in or network affect. In investing it might be called moat. Looking to destroy like Facebook. Very hard to compete due to they have all the users. You can’t just choose your chat app, you also be on the same network as your friends. Decouple those two. Another example is YouTube. They are the biggest video provider and thus will reach most users. Decouple those two again. I can continue with Microsoft apps, Netflix videos, Google search and ads etc.

Without possibilities for real competition, you dont get innovation.

n0x0n , to linux in backups for SD card disk image? that don't take up tonnes of space and can be rolled back?

You’re looking for a block level incremental backup solution. This can either be achieved using filesystem based snapshots (ZFS, BRRFS) or using dedicated programs. I know rdiff-backup , restic and duplicity use block-level diffs, not sure about rsnapshot.

Wirlocke , to asklemmy in Fiat doesn't work on a finite planet. Crypto has failed on its goals. What is a better way to be economically secure?

As an aside, I’ve often wondered what would happen if everything was automatically adjusted for inflation.

So like cost of living inflates, but then income is adjusted and bank accounts are modified to be their true value before inflation.

Would this patch things up to be effectively 0 inflation? or (more likely) would this cause an absurd runaway effect?

nitefox ,

That it would spiral into more inflation, making your money worthless. Which is exactly what happened in Italy with the Lira

No wars. Just peace.

moriquende , (edited ) to asklemmy in TV nerds: what should I watch

Some shows I really enjoyed in recent years:

  • Arcane (amazing animation, world, and story - you don’t need to know anything about the game to enjoy it)
  • Peaky Blinders (it’s finished and so good throughout)
  • Travelers (also finished, extremely underrated)
  • The Expanse (6 seasons of some of the best sci-fi ever)
  • Stranger Things (ongoing but highly recommend)
  • Beef (limited series so finished, so good)
  • The Bear (very good, raw characters and emotions)
  • Ted Lasso (no need to care for football, just extremely lovable characters and heartwarming story)
  • Breaking Bad (if you haven’t watched this, it’s a must - best TV imo)
  • The Last of Us (no need to know the game)
  • Andor (best star wars since the original trilogy, mature, dark, and suspenseful)

They’re in no particular order, and I’m sure I’m forgetting a lot, but I definitely think all of the above are must watch.
