I like him for his charming smile.

Their discord server has a name and icon that was set by the original members. It's an in-joke none of the current members get but none of them want to change it

Peak anti-clipping technology

It's scary to think they may be doing it on purpose, yet on the other hand, Nazis are so mysteriously good at advancing the cause of fascism without even trying, by simply being their most reactionary, incurious, and hateful selves. Some kind of unerring base instinct.

oh my god they werewolves

"The customer is always right" has done unspeakable damage not just to people who have to represent brands on the ground but also people who have to market themselves with their branding. That and fandom pretending they have a sense of ownership over stuff they're a fan of. So much wrong with it

I was going to say, we can specifically steal an existing game's goals by instructing the LLM which game to focus stealing on. The fact that this just creates a worse version of the game it's trying to be is implied.

Giacomo's Revenge

I thought this was some kind of protection racket or ransom demand. Is this him thinking he's... showing interest?

My default pain sound is "Owie" due to a bit from a video. In not just english but german too. You HAVE to be careful.

Also depending on your career choices, bullshitting counts as a life skill

They're fucking sick

Substitute for "treats" the lack of friction in daily life and illusion of an unbroken world

They went after the one thing they could not do without: Their treats

A killy...

After all I thought we as a society agreed that the Cash and Power of being a CEO of a massive company also came with the noblesse obligee of acting responsibly, in the interest of your platform and its users, and with, if not gravitas, then with the detachment that such a position requires.

Tactical Bart is sick as hell btw

I think the guy that did the Two Towers was called George Bush

Trying to manage communities with a pure "All growth is good" mindset would be a fool's errand, but somehow there's still people who try it

All of that to say that the addition of People outside your company's hierarchy into the workflow massively complicates ANY endeavor, before we even get into said people being not just the company's product but indeed the fulcrum of the scale on which your company succeeds or fails

>wrangles the company paying us into talking about What they want, How they want it, When do they want it, and Who's going to be giving us access. Due to some amount of bureaucracy, it hardly leaves him time to get his hands dirty, and I STILL don't envy him the social aspects of his role

I'm an industrial electrician doing contracting as part of a very small team (a lot of it is supplementing a company's electrician task force after management downsized too aggressively a few years ago). The guy who has been here longest not only handles ordering, billing, and planning, but also>

It's weird seeing someone appropriate something all on their own and the only cultural momentum behind them as an individual is their structural power, meaning you can't dismiss them as some random weirdo. This weird concentration of power translating into cultural capital is what makes it feel off

I think the best word for it is Appropriation, and the weird part is that usually we see right wingers do it as a community through the medium of claiming imagery and spreading it throughout their community memetically, using saturation to reinforce the appropriation.

if you are German, you really need to yell and scream at your MEPs about chat control! Germany has been flip flopping on chat control constantly. Their vote carries an enormous amount of weight on this issue!

we can win this, but we need to make our voices heard! contact your representatives!

Happy Birthday!

That's really neat... A good way to do it imho

Much like the HR joke goes "If you were the ideal candidate, you'd already have my job and would be interviewing me", the ideal way of asking for how they want the final product to look, is to already know how they want the final product to look, cuz you'd magically want it to look like they would!
