SkyeStarfall , to lemmyshitpost in Derps of Tiktok

Yeah, real, I see people talk about “young kids on da tok all day” and I’m like, you’re just making fun of kids/teenagers mostly, the same thing you criticized the older generations of doing towards you. Let kids be kids, it’s fine. Having a childhood is important, it sucks to be denied it.

I feel like I hear this story repeated over and over and over and over and over… everywhere.

At what point will we stop letting the business types degrade our human civilization for their egoistic short-term gains?

Because the nerves are compressed. You move and feel your body via nerves.

This is probably just a consequence of how unicode emoji modifiers work

SkyeStarfall , to technology in is this copium or hopium or schizophrenia?

Asteroid mining and space industry is a huge reason, and it’s the next logical step for humanity, especially since it means we can put dirty industry where nature and life doesn’t exist.

There are absurd amounts of resources in space, a lot of which are difficult to access or rare on earth. In addition, space can give opportunities for new forms of manufacturing, from being able to control the level of gravity due to weightlessness, to being surrounded by vacuum. Two things which are either very difficult or impossible to recreate on earth.

It’s enough to look at how much stuff is available in a supermarket, or in the average, home, to know we live in an age of abundance. The problem is, is that abundance is not shared, but hoarded.

We have enough food to feed the world, we have enough production for everyone in the world to have a smartphone and internet access and electricity. We can make clothes for everyone, we can home everyone. We have enough healthcare for everyone.

By an objective measure, we have abundance, we have enough. The world is just severely mismanaging our resources and the distribution of them. Because the economy doesn’t work for humans, instead humans work for the economy.

SkyeStarfall , to piracy in Warner Bros. is now erasing games as it plans to delist Adult Swim-published titles

And if you have the game downloaded, you still have the files. Just as much as you have a disk.

On the other hand, disks stop being produced far sooner than digital games stop being sold/hosted.

So the issue is about having DRM, not whether it’s sold on physical media or not. Digital games don’t necessarily need to have DRM either.

Why do you think a game on a physical disk won’t have securities?

Well, you can make copies of digital media too.

Sure, there’s DRM, but it doesn’t matter whether it’s digital or physical in that instance, DRM can be added either way.

SkyeStarfall , to technology in A 7,000-Pound Car Smashed Through a Guardrail. That’s Bad News for All of Us.

But if the true costs were quantized in the formula and not just externalized maybe it would suddenly make more sense. After all, in the end, society pays for it no matter what.

SkyeStarfall , to gaming in Warner Bros. Discusses "Volatile" AAA Console Games, Will Lean Into Free-To-Play And Mobile

I compare them to good indie games, and in that sense most AAA games are bland rehashed kitchen sinks that all look and play the same. It’s boring.

SkyeStarfall , to technology in Nintendo Switch emulator, Yuzu, developers settling lawsuit from Nintendo with $2.4M payout, handing over its domains, and agreeing "Yuzu [is] primarily designed to circumvent [DRM]".

Then people will argue capitalism incentivizes innovation.

SkyeStarfall , to world in Obesity has become the most common form of malnutrition in the majority of countries

And these are systemic issues

SkyeStarfall , to world in Obesity has become the most common form of malnutrition in the majority of countries

This would make sense… If it was exactly the same everywhere with a similar level of convenience.

But it’s not, America is much much worse than Europe on this, and rich countries in Europe don’t exactly have less convenience than the US. How else would you explain it other than a systemic difference? American brains are not fundamentally different to European ones.
