Assuming that is indeed the case, she still benefits considerably: she gets to stay relevant, develop celebrity, change or affect the public opinion on her. A normal criminal cant even get a job cleaning toilets sometimes.

The most depressing thing about this entire ordeal is that the woman stole lots of money, got busted because that money belonged to rich people, and is now after having been convicted and literally been to prison as far as i know, able to cash in on that further. Lets make a movie about that wonderful successful scammer.

SCOR SUM FACKIN GOOLS

I installed battlenet in steam/proton using a random guide i googled up. I think it used the default proton as well, anyway: once you have that bnet running it will install its games into that same prefix, so in my experience once bnet runs all of its games do as well.

Lemmy shitposts, and lemmy users responding in dead seriousness in the comments, name a more iconic duo.

The whole Recycling concept is just what got propagated by the powers that be, because the two previous, much more fundamental principles are not conducive to profits:

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.

If i had to have a car, i’d probably get one like this. Small and urban but with a little extra cargo space.

Is it guinea pig sized? That is adorable. But i’m sure it would still crush my head like a watermelon if it only could.

Yeah thats fair. Personally i’d prefer he didnt use them at all either but i can also sort of understand a (afaik?) hobby coder wanting to reduce their workload, iirc there were even some mental health issues involved that got alleviated by the ai help. And as long as the ai code is identifiable i can mostly live with it.

Says the guy who comes on needlessly strong and then has nothing.

Is that a “no, i dont have any”?

Certainly:

See the update to the article.

Thats what i am going off of, if you have newer info than that i’m sure happy to listen.

AFAIK the dev reversed his stance on ai after the blowback. Do you have newer information that contradicts that? Because otherwise you are both just hating on lutris for no reason.

Piefed had its own recent controversy lately. Leave yours? 🙃

Eh, i kinda miss it. Of course its carefree living, but it also is a symptom of our individual detachment from society at large. We don’t relate to the people around us, we handpick those connections digitally for the most part, where shit is just as shallow as it supposedly was in reality before that.

Sure, you dont care what you look like in the street. But if you have mainstream social media as well i would bet you have made an effort for your profiles that other people can see. Good looking pics, possibly edited too, relatable posts and personal information.

We just shifted most of our presentation online.

My personal theory is that it is a symptom of societal decay. People would dress nicely and look good when going out, so others would see and be impressed or attracted.

Now i have literally not worn anything else but different sweatpants for the last year or so, because i could not care less what other random passerbys perceive me as, since i am decidedly not interested in them either.

Nobody cares about real life impressions any more because the people that matter to them are in their phone. Friends and family are not necessarily in the same location as you, and romantic options are for the most part also in your phone now. Why brother looking good when potential partners are expected to judge you by your social media presence anyway and i’m just here for groceries.

Look him up, Dolph Lundgren.

Action movie star from i think the 80s/90s? Think blonde rambo, that sort of thing

Personally i avoid visible branding, and at that point you can just go with whatever frame you like. Investing in high quality lenses is much better spent money in my experience, lightweight+deglared+extra thin lenses make a world of difference for comfortable wearing over longer time for me.

I mean, yeah of course, but preparing camping supplies and going for groceries seems not quite the same thing.

As a European, being longer than maybe a weekend cut off from external help (or the general concept of a natural disaster as a possible occurence) is not really a thing. Worst that happens is some flooding near rivers and the coast on rare occasions.

Dubious water quality is also not a problem people have to deal with on a frequent basis, at least in germany. You can give your landlord major shit if you don’t have access to proper, clean water. (If you own your place it is your problem of course)
