“Let the other societies take the skilled, the hopefuls, the ambitious, the self-confident. He’d take the whining resentful ones, the ones with a bellyful of spite and bile, the ones who knew they could make it big if only they’d been given the chance. Give him the ones in which the floods of venom and vindictiveness were dammed up behind thin walls of ineptitude and lowgrade paranoia. And stupidity, too. They’ve all sworn the oath, he thought, but not a man jack of ’em has even asked what a figgin is.”

He certainly knew what’s up!

It’s from Guards! Guards! :)

Damnit this would’ve been my immediate response, too.

The fuk? Please help me complete this insane captcha (lemmy.world)

Fridge fridge hamburger truck truck… ??? What’s the blue thing? I thought hamburger would be the answer, but it isn’t? I just get the same captcha with the hamburger in a different place. WTAF is happening? And what’s the blue thing? I answer and it refreshes with the same icons in different places. I AM HUMAN!

Well, this is actually the easy mode. On hard you see lettuce next to a politician’s face.

griD ,

Brilliant :D

Hey OP, here is some serious DD you might like

Philosophy is just applied existential crisis

griD ,

I do not believe asking questions should be labeled as a crisis.

griD ,

Very sound advice.

griD ,

Amazon also sells AI-generated books about mushroom picking, so why shouldn’t they?

griD ,

Not astonishing, as it is in line with THE major belief of conservatives, i.e. a person’s status in live determines their worth and character traits.

As an employee you are a bad person. Simple as.

Hmm, I’ve only played Stellaris from this company and that game is great. A bit pricey with all the DLC, but the alternative of releasing a new Stellaris every few years probably amounts to the same.
Also, I’d rather play a well fleshed out 8 year old game, than getting a bare boned husk with each iteration - which sadly tends to be the norm for 4x games.

griD ,

Wake me up when the popover API is in. Might be next version, nice!

griD ,

We’re on a run.
Cannabis decriminialized, now abortion legalization (shoutout to our french neighbours for setting the pace!), Deutschlandticket, energy gets decarbonized (yes, former governments made some mistakes there…) and the list goes on.

All that to be killed off because the fucking boomers will vote “conservative” next year, the country is moving too fast for them or some BS, LMAO.

griD ,

Right, I knew I had forgotten something :)

griD ,

Took long enough for an Archer reference ITT. Thanks.

I don’t find that bizarre at all, it’s what he is going to do!

In Germany, we have a word for that: “Leidensdruck” and I think that’s beautiful.

“They thought they were free”…

griD ,

Pff, just define your own cascade with @layers :)

Best advice I can give: Don’t use CSS directly, use a pre-processor like SASS/SCSS. It really helps keeping things sane and somewhat organized.

griD ,

Never realized the Penguin of Doom got into coding :o

griD ,

Been here since Europe got flooded with AOL CDs, same.

The game itself is great, the UI/UX is just on another level. The UI has no ambiguity, is very responsive to input and just feels smooth. The wording on the cards is also excellent and consistent.

StS is a joy to play and I bet it’s also really great on the Steam Deck.

Germany

Hey, at least we are fighting them this time! But sure, if system-wide changes are not coming, more people will fall into the hands of the fascists.

griD ,

Is there some kind of conversion rate? Like each discovered tunnel justifies 1,000 more dead or something?

I just found out that Humble Bundle has a book bundle for Terry Pratchett's Discworld. A 39 book bundle that is redeemed through Kobo.com.

Edit: Only available in the US.

It’s in the revised “wormhole aliens” edition .

Just 5 comments ATM and already an Archer reference, keep it up lemmy <3

griD ,

This weekend, there is even a protest in my tiny 30k people town. You love to see it. I will participate, as I did last weekend in Braunschweig (Brunswick).

griD ,

Will do that, gladly.

griD ,

Goodnight Travis County, there will be no encore. Woo!

griD ,

YES

I know my enemies
They’re the teachers who taught me to fight me:
✔ Compromise
✔ Conformity
✔ Assimilation
✔ Submission
✔ Ignorance
✔ Hypocrisy
✔ Brutality
✔ The elite

griD ,

That is some gourmet deep-fried shit.

griD ,

Is this the Southern Air Temple?

Beautiful shot, op!

griD ,

I really like how my meme proliferates along this 'verse :) I hope the discussions ITT are as nice as in mine.

griD OP ,

Drake is a creep.

griD OP ,

You’re right. It does have the same energy to it, doesn’t it? But of course, it also feels like that kind of regression permeates nearly every layer of society now, which is really sad. We should get angry before it’s too late.

griD OP ,

Obviously there a people in charge now who will never understand the Streisand effect. They could have kept it quiet and just… allow… the technical adept users to do their thing. Now, they are the laughing stock and get unwanted attention. Also, from my layman understanding, this shit won’t fly in the EU at all.

Or, to say it differently: This is the best thing to happen to Mozilla in quite a long time and I’m a fan.

griD OP ,

some explanation

To be fair, they used setTimeout() and not thread.sleep() because the latter isn’t possible out of the box in JS ^^

griD OP ,

Don’t cut yourself with that edge!

inb4: “But YT operates at a loss and needs monies”. No. Just no. They deliberately worked at a loss to stifle and kill opposition.

I hope this is the beginning of The Fall of the House of Usher Musk.

Holy hyper-normalization :O

ETA: One could figure out the state of our media and our (online) existence by just thinking a bit about those beautiful hashtags.

Phew, don’t have to run that diagnosis after all.
