The horrific actions of Ian Dankins made me unable to listen to Lostprophets songs, so if I don’t immediately spot the “underwater” quality of genAI songs…

Oh, the evergreen “but what about human slop” argument of AI boosters.

That image reminds me a meme from “Scientific diagrams that look like shitposts”. It was titled something like “Mask of Damascus(?)/Triagones(?) - Acquire it (from a prisoner(?)) with a scimitar!”

There’s a lot of other alternatives, such as Zig, Odin, Nim, D…

Because HR is already using “phrenology”.

I also first encountered it through Bevy, but I did it in a less obtuse, less macro-heavy way in mine, as well as using D instead of Rust (D IMHO is better for gamedev stuff, due to not being as much functional programming-first as Rust). Please note that mine does not have much 3D capabilities as of yet, as my game engine is 2D first with some optional 3D later being added.

I do a lot of stuff like that in my game engine, alongside with Entity Component System. Not everything is ECS as I still use some OOP stuff there and there, just to make my life easier in non-performance critical applications.

Sometimes things go out with a bang. There’s a good chance that Putin’s regime also survives it with only some regions falling out with it first.

*This is an excuse for the Seven Mountain Mandate to “save people who wouldn’t otherwise understand from hellfire”.

Give me server-side decorations, or give me death!

(won’t add the whole of GTK as a dependency, so that my input handling can be handed over to whatever is GTK doing.)

They’ll just force them to compete against women, then when a trans man wins, it’ll be sold as “man pretending to be woman steals medals from women”, then extend the whole trans ban.

Make those motherfuckers’ phone lines burn!

It’ll lose a lot of relevance. Casual users will move to smartphones and tablets, more experienced ones will move to Linux, and Linux gatekeepers will move to “the next big thing” once they no longer can control the user experience of others (just because a developer doesn’t use Neovim and Hyperland, does not mean they’re a fake developer).

So the robots will kill the poor?

To anyone celebrating this: you’re defending a fucking bad faith law!

Does any of the recent anti-LGBTQ+ laws are just to protect little Jimmy being a “little confused”, to protect him from “making life altering decisions”? Did any of the Nazi anti-Jewish laws were only made to stop predatory banking? Fuck no! And fuck you if you think we can just "undo it easily later on: no one wants to be the “pervert politician”, no one wants to be smeared by the opposition as “the real misogynist” or a “pervert being occupied with things other than the economy”, so no one will do it.

I don’t like choking in porn. The problem is a failure of both the lack of sexual education, and not holding platforms accountable for replatforming the likes of Andrew Tate, not some smut.

That’s the goal. First ban kink that are more extreme, but word the ban vague enough to be applicable to other things.

We call this kind of bad faith laws as “shotgun laws”, due to how reminiscent they’re to the operation of shotgun-type weapons from video games.

Unwashed ass = Omarchy

How long until he meets the same fate as Ian Watkins?

New startup idea: iAir. Pay a certain amount of subscription for air, or we will choke you to death!

How long until the dental restoration industry lobbies it out to be banned, so they can keep selling their photoshop jobs of people smiling with new teeth alongside crowns and implants, all at an inflated price?
