Can we leave the thinly veiled spankbank questions to reddit please?

Stormyfemme ,

I’ve def seen conservative talking points about climate change being a myth sold by china to make american manufacturing and such noncompetitive.

Stormyfemme ,

America has gotten more and more individualistic in the sociological sense. Being self sufficient to a ridiculous degree is basically a cult here. Also boomers raised millenials with the expectation of moving out on our own at 18 that was the pressure from our parents.

Sometimes I’m hungry and not sober. Nothing is in walking distance and no way in hell would I drive like that so some days I pay too much for junk food despite the drawbacks.

Stormyfemme ,

I guess it all depends on how significant significant is. Probably 10k so I don’t have to worry so much about affording an upcoming surgery.

Stormyfemme ,

Yep I’ve started getting weird garbled almost images in captchas and it’s just gross that I have to add to an AI training data set just to use a service.

Stormyfemme ,

Honestly I was considering getting one because I could use a nice laptop to do stuff on but 8GB is inexcusably bad so yeah pass

Apple has repeatedly stressed that they’re privacy focused in the past, while a major departure from that could happen absolutely it feels a bit like borrowing trouble to assume it will happen soon. Google is an advertising company first, microsoft is just a mess, but Apple is a luxury hardware producer, they have minimal reason to damange their reputation in a way that would make those sorts of consumers upset.

Please note that I’m not saying it’s impossible just unlikely in the near future

You know I have software on my PC old enough I can’t run it even in compatibility mode, I’d need to spin up a VM to run it or a pseudoVM like DOSBox, it’s not unheard of it’s not even uncommon.

How do you feel about financing a genocide?

I didn’t want to direct this question to Americans specifically because, at this point, other countries have shown support to Israel in one or the other way. If my country was financing this, I would be taking the streets. Shit, I’m right now in the hospital but all I can think about is protesting anyway just to feel I did...

Stormyfemme ,

It’s not a great idea to conflate Israel with the entire world Jewish population.

Stormyfemme ,

Ah so it would seem. Sorry.

Stormyfemme ,

Those still need to get plugged in to the device somehow lol

Stormyfemme ,

that’s because there’s a lot of money to be made in making it complicated.

Stormyfemme ,

Right but we more or less mandate learning to drive in the states. If something is essential to daily functioning in life it should have some sort of public education and testing sort of vibe huh?

It’s Definitive – The Gulf Stream Is Weakening (www.iflscience.com)

The Gulf Stream plays a significant role in maintaining the climate of the US East Coast and Western Europe. “We conclude with a high degree of confidence that Gulf Stream transport has indeed slowed by about 4% in the past 40 years.” The full study is Here

Nah they’ll be fine no matter what happens. Accelerationism hurts the most vulnerable more than anyone else.

Where do you fall politically?

I’m hoping this doesn’t start a fight, I’m just curious what the political orientation is of this community. I grew up in a liberal (in the American sense) family, and I identify now as a socialist, though a lot of the liberalism I grew up in has stuck with me, like interest in LGBTQ and women’s rights, environmentalism,...

You may notice that this parallels the american school grading system to a T. Most major gaming review sites and such are done by americans that spent anywhere between 4-10+ years with that being the what grading/reviewing/scoring was done in almost every interaction they ever had past childhood, there’s no wonder it’s the standard here even if it’s changed the scoring paradigm.

“Maiden” used to imply virginity and “fair” implies light, usually white, skin. Doesn’t take a leap to figure out why censors in the 60s would have found it objectionable to call attention to that.

Isn’t this disco’s final dance so to speak?

Stormyfemme ,

The trill host is a non-binary human.

Stormyfemme ,

Or anything that’s not the status quo.

If you’re in the US and have a license they’re supposed to ask you to sign up to be an organ donor. Do that and let doctors decide what’s best instead of bequeathing a kidney to your cousin George.

What are some game genres / styles you like that aren't being made anymore, or are being mde but not very often?

For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

Stormyfemme ,

Oo do I have a surprise for you. Get a load of Bomb Rush Cyberfunk.

Stormyfemme ,

I miss wintermaul in wc3. Nothing quite like it.

Stormyfemme ,

If you want buy in you should probably include something about who you are and what this is about. Especially for an on boarding meeting you want enough info people want to get abroad.

Twitter, Threads, and the misunderstood nature of engineering (beehaw.org)

Complex internet services fail in interesting ways as they grow in size and complexity. Twitter’s recent issues show how failures emerge slowly over time as relationships between components degrade. Meta’s quick launch of Threads demonstrates how platform investments can compound over time, allowing them to quickly build on...

My giant megacorp owned by a billionaire is better than your giant megacorp owned by a billionaire.

Tumblr says it’s going to “fix” its “core experience” to appeal to new users (www.theverge.com)

Tumblr plans to make changes to appeal to new users and improve growth. The post states that Tumblr is currently difficult for new users to use and curates content poorly. Tumblr aims to improve how users discover and sign up, encourage frequent engagement, and boost creators’ ability to attract audiences. Specific changes...

By that same logic reddit was a harbor of alt-right and other shitty people but if you curated your experience with it you could mostly avoid it. Similarly so with tumblr in my experience.

Stormyfemme ,

You can search through tags to find people but honestly i find reblog chains suitable for finding people i’m interested in after getting started with some fandom tags and other stuff.

Twitter traffic is 'tanking' as Meta's Threads hits 100 million users (www.cnbc.com)

Meta’s new text-based social app Threads has quickly gained 100 million users since launching last week, which appears to be negatively impacting traffic on Twitter. According to web analytics, Twitter traffic declined 5-11% over the first two days Threads was available compared to the previous week. Threads was able to grow...

Stormyfemme ,

Don’t think that meta turning into even more of a global social megacorp that controls everything a lot of people seee and interact with day to day is a good thing tbh.

Stormyfemme ,

I got hard stuck on one of the seymour fights on Mt. Gagazet and couldn’t be fucked to grind out enough levels to brute force it so that’s still where my save file is stuck at some 20 years later.
