Code is pretty small but images, textures, voice lines, etc can crank it up
Being allowed to die when you choose is fine and good but good goddamn it should not exist in a neoliberal system that'll end up socially murdering all the non-productives and the neurodivergent.
There's no real point to nfts as licenses though. The only party that can authenticate a license, the creator, wouldn't want to give up their control over licenses, and the wouldn't want to resell used licenses because... Why? That's a ton of work to implement when they can just sell a new license.
In this case it's not really discourse so much as plagiarizing minority voices and directly profiting off them. Hbomb describes how a Somerton patreon subscriber discovered him reading her own essay back at her uncredited. She was paying him to steal from her.
Dude's also a misogynist. When he isn't stealing people's words his original contributions frequently attack white women, and he'll also misgender creators that he feels are "as bad as" women so he can attack them through the same lens.
I feel like in discourse you need two sides and nobody is on this dude's side.
Hbomberguy, after doing a video that deleted Tommy Tallarico by exposing a career of lies (even getting one of his world records removed in the process of research alone), put out a video discussing plagiarism where he, with receipts, showed Internet Historian, Illuminaughtii, and James Somerton conducted significant plagiarism. All 3 fan bases went feral over it. Somerton deleted his socials and lost a shitload of his patreon money and IH's fans are having a Normal One.
Somerton was the main focus of the video. He's a gay man who created a series of video essays that are basically all entirely plagiarized word for word from dozens of other queer creators, pretty much straight up stealing money from them. Hbomb has dedicated all the revenue he makes from this video to be split between everyone somerton stole from, which hilariously includes Wikipedia.
For sure they know, it's just cops are lazy and aren't paid to solve crimes
Arms manufacturers want more $ and can't get more $ if the stockpiles are full
Article seems to push the point that you can, in fact, buy a "last-gen" phone and it'll be just as effective as the current gen. Which is true, since phone improvements are marginal or just shit that includes image-editing AI in the camera firmware since the diminishing improvements of hardware are really starting to kick the manufacturers' ass.
It won't stop an infection from going bad but it can mildly reduce risk of infection iirc
Some people genetically just don't smell bad when they sweat
Gabe was talking about the making of Half Life, back when you shipped your disc and that was that. And the game was, apparently, crapola.
Same kind of deal with the original Deus Ex. It was a spaghetti of poorly interacting systems until the devs were able to make it all click together.
There's a bunch of creatures that don't use oxygen but they're mostly all prokaryotes, since oxygen metabolism unlocks a shitload of energy you can use for being large and complex.
Most countries that aren't America aren't inundated with anti-China rhetoric, so if someone starts spouting off about China (and especially Chinese civil rights, or uses the term "CCP") in English they're almost certainly an American.
Does China lag behind the west in terms of queer rights? Yes. We're critical of that but also recognize the grassroots initiatives within the CPC to change that, and support those efforts. Does China pollute more in raw numbers than America? Yeah, but they're also the global leader in green power production, so they're clearly working to fix the emissions problem, which we support. China also takes a non-imperialist stance internationally, which is far and away better than anything America has ever done internationally.
It's definitely not simple to use but I agree that the conceptual model it represents is straightforward. I think a lot of the problems people have with git come from not understanding the underlying data structure before learning how to manipulate it.
I agree, those dicks definitely could be doing better with their money and we should take it away from them for societally useful things.
Ok, and?

Someone else has a server and their infrastructure is set up so you can upload a zip of some executable and they'll figure out how to make it run. You don't worry about any details except your code and whatever API is require to be compatible, and they worry about hosting it, making sure it has memory, CPU time, disk space, DB, etc.
Right tool for the right job. C is a stupid choice for most modern apps but it's indispensable for embedded stuff
What a grand and intoxicating innocence to presume Marx did not consider these things
