What the actual fuck is wrong with admins of SJW?

Please direct any seething that you may wish to do to the struggle session that’s well underway over here.

Thought this instance puts things to vote so yeah, duck you too, goodbye.

Conflating inclusion of people regardless of their inborn traits / social status and inclusion of people regardless of their shilling for genocidal regimes is par for the course for people making mockery of the left.

Regular users subscribe to communities they like and occasionally browses “All” to explore what else there is, knowing 99% will be irrelevant to their interests.

You and Lemmygrad people openly talk interfering with other instances so don’t play coy. Your astroturfing attempts are transparent to anyone with a pair of eyes or a screen reader.

Other than shilling for genocidal regimes I’ve seen them brigade such posts after they refederated recently. This kind of behavior is unacceptable in my book regardless of what ideology you subscribe to.

I’m not judging someone who read the entire series or those who did it multiple times. People are free to enjoy what they want. Regardless of that, doing 8 months multiplied by even 2-3 times is a considerable chunk of a human lifespan. It explains takes like “I don’t like the adaptation because it made too many changes” and it needs to be put into perspective. I’ve elaborated more on this in my other comment.

“This series is 1:1 replica of a book” and “this series is only taking a passing inspiration from original books” are merely facts and a starting point to set expectations before moving on to describe and judge an adaptation. It’s okay to judge by comparing original to adaptation but “this is not a faithful adaptation, therefore it is bad” does not help in evaluating quality of derived work.

You’ve read 14 book series multiple times? That’s enormous investment that’s probably setting unrealistic expectations.

I’ve only started the first one to die out of boredom quickly so I can’t imagine repeatedly getting through a slog first few books supposedly are. My girlfriend read everything after the first season and once she was finished she did a re-watch which she enjoyed, in part because it’s different. Second season has higher production value but seems to be confusing with the amount of changes so far. I’m following along because the themes are interesting and there’s nothing so bad that would discourage me.

Even without reading everything it’s fair to assume that this couldn’t be a faithful adaptation. They’ll likely have to merge more story lines, characters, then remove some things entirely and it’ll still be a challenge to fit this into amount of seasons that’s reasonable to produce. The Expanse did plenty of that but it still had roughly a season per book, and that was with a book series that Bezos personally enjoys.

I agree that it’s more cybersecruity related but given that this incident led to a food product recall there is a bit of a more broad appeal so I think fits this community.

Yeah, it’s surprising since it should have lower CPU overhead. Here’s Digital Foundry analysis: https://youtu.be/V9Kc8025H7U

9/6 is the PS5 date. Still no word from Larian on the Mac date - the last I heard was when they originally announced it would be delayed, and that they didn’t want to give a date and not meet it.

I just checked Wikipedia which I think I got it from and it states 9/6 but the link cited as source doesn’t state it anywhere.

grumble

I was similarly disappointed but IIRC it was delayed to September 6th.

I wonder how will it run in Act 3 since DX11 is so much more performant than Vulkan and I assume they use either MoltenVK or straight Metal. It’s likely the reason for the delay.

There’s a caveat. Most countries will heavily regulate access to limited resources, for example radio frequency bands. SpaceX is occupying defined orbit which means it’s perfectly reasonable to ensure society benefits from this privilege.

Given the non-commercial nature of Lemmy it’s worth considering how much strain this would put on instances. It’s all a balancing act of user convenience and cost to instance owners and I wonder how much Lemmy apps consider this. I don’t have strong opinion on either approach, just my $0.02.

In my experience it took about 1.5y for saddle brown leather cases to deteriorate badly (used one with iPhone 7 and XS). They are very bad with moisture and start to flake if you get them wet.

Absolutely love the photo used in the article, credited to Dieter Bohn. My girlfriend still makes fun of me for watching this video 5 years ago.

I have never met one in person either. I’ve met countless on the internet. It’s as if it was a manufactured outrage instigated by a genocidal regime. It worth addressing talking points distributed among that group.

Just a suggestion - it might be worth adding some kind of dupe check:

Reddit piracy sub is rather neutered and every piracy related sub is quite explicit in having no links to pirated content, torrents included. Dbzer0 instance is very free for all.

I watched LTT for Top Gear of computer hardware videos. This commentary from GN made me wonder when was the last time they did one. I couldn’t remember and unsubscribed.

I’d be interested in videos by Alex, Nicholas and maybe few others. Hope they go their own way some day. Alex videos are probably quite expensive to do so he’s probably stuck there :/
