Mkay, I know it’s hot right now to advocate for killing shitty people who make unethical decisions that fuck over lots of people. But this is not a healthy thing people. It doesn’t stop with the shitty people. It escalates, it kills innocents. Advocating for killing shitty people is advocating for a justice system where anyone can pass a death sentence on anyone else.

You want less shitty people making unethical decisions that fuck over other people? Than get better fucking people in government. Government is the best tool we have to prevent shitty people making unethical decisions that fuck over lots of people. It’s not ideal but it’s a hell of a lot better than getting gunned down because someone disagrees with you.

Are you asking this because you feel strongly about it?

I sounds to me like you’re trying to bait a discussion on the ethics of whether people “should” change the race/orientation/gender of characters in stories. It reads more like a statement of fact to me. Humans just tend to model characters in stories on themselves, regardless of the origin of the story. There’s a million examples, here’s one you’re probably familiar with. https://sc.edu/uofsc/posts/2020/07/conversation_white_jesus.php What role does the color of Jesus’s skin play in Christianity? What role does Snow White’s skin color play in the story? Why or when would it be immoral to change those details?

Long time visitor to Bloom County but maybe not old enough to catch what Steve is implying in that last panel. Can anyone enlighten me?

Red Alert was my gateway drug to computer games, it’s so fun to see people still caring for it

Never thought we’d agree on anything

Oh no 🙃

Spoilers: they won’t, it’ll leak, they’ll deny it

Lit. It’s a good ask although it’s not clear what separation means here. Not going to hold my breath, the big corpos seem to usually win these kind of games.

I wonder about this a lot. The little research I did suggested DigitalOcean is footing the bill for the moment (and also for Pixelfed? would love to hear more about this). Google, Facebook, TikTok, etc… have all managed to throw enough resources at similar products that people expect a level of performance that is very expensive to maintain. There is some serious hardware and distribution issues ($$$$) with trying to host an “instant and endless stream of short form video”.

In a counter point though I think large instances like lemmy.world and lemmy.ml have found ways to survive and thrive and the fediverse generally seems to be supported in a very grassroots sort of fashion. Donations, patrons, people who have the hardware and bandwidth sharing what they can for the greater community. Perhaps loops will go the same way.

I just want to say I really appreciate this creator, asianometry covers lots of neat topics and does so really well imho
