@e1_ken0s @Wokenessisevil Bingo. Forcing narratives into everything is a huge problem nobody seems to want to address.

@Wokenessisevil Plenty of legendary movies with an all white cast/black cast. Most people nowadays just want a good movie. It’s only that small minority people who wanna make everything about race that get these platforms and create chaos. If we stop giving them platforms we’d get better movies

If it's ok to make a movie with full black cast, then it should be ok to make a movie with full white cast as well. Do you agree?

@Pirat_Nation The intent to simplify and standardize is good, but picking a flimsy, easily damaged physical connection is both incredibly unintelligent and highly suspect. Let I.T. professionals make I.T. decisions, not greedy suits.

Starting today, every new laptop sold in the European Union must use USB-C as its primary charging port for models up to 100 watts. This extends the common charger rules already in force for phones and tablets The EU wants to slash electronic waste by roughly 11 000 tons each year and also buyers won’t have to buy so many chargers for every device which is incredible annoying High-power devices like certain gaming laptops remain exempt from full USB-C exclusivity but are still required to include a working USB-C port.

@Tiffany31016503 @ChibiReviews I would recommend keeping an eye on the horizon, as every platform will eventually be enslaved to this corporate criminality if not stopped. I’m “non console” as well, but I see what’s at the door trying to get in. None of us or our possessions are safe.

@ChibiReviews Me who's been a full-time member of the PC Master Race since the age of 6 watching all the console peasants see their industry wipe itself out. It's highly entertaining!

PlayStation basically said you will own nothing even if you pay for it. There's now a 30-day DRM Check every 30 days to check if you can play your newly bought games. How to ruin your entire brand in one night. youtu.be/24TSWk6x1eU

@MisandryE @PhilMitchell83 Scarier still is how that “invent an eternal, unfixable problem” thing exists everywhere in society now.

@PhilMitchell83 I remember when I couldnt buy a train ticket in Scotland without being forced to watch White Ribbons propeganda videos. I complained about it constantly. They invent a problem, and because its not real, it cannot ever be fixed. Convenient when its a business.

Years ago it was a white feather. Now it’s a white ribbon Focusing only on misogyny & how boys should be respectful but not misandry & how girls should be respectful promotes an unhelpful, biased & harmful narrative Collective guilt/responsibility by demographic. Appalling

@meSubh @SamSiff Was literally preparing to say exactly this. Ya beat me to it. Well done.

@SamSiff How can that even be a question? It is so obvious to natural justice.

Is this a question or a statement. I say… It should be a law.. No mercy on false accusations

@iluminatibot Easy: a lie. This is simply a poorly veiled and artificial criminal income propagated by the wealthy because they have no real value, integrity or honor. If there really is a debt, it’s to everyone on earth who ISN’T wealthy or powerful by those who are.

Explain this

@Pirat_Nation Really? The *noise* is their biggest worry? They’re AI data centers. Noise (a valid issue, don’t get me wrong) is probably the most positive aspect of their existence. Someone please explain the real evils to these people and help ‘em get properly enraged.

A small town in Pennsylvania with just 7,000 residents is now ground zero in the fight over the AI boom. Developers have proposed six massive data center campuses in Archbald. Together, these projects would bring 51 enormous buildings, each roughly the size of a Walmart Supercenter, into the community’s 17-square-mile area. That would mean industrial development covering around 14% of the town’s land. People who live there are deeply concerned and are worried about constant noise from the AI data centers and the loss of their quiet, rural way of life Four out of the seven town council members have resigned amid the controversy

@ChibiReviews @Wokenessisevil How is an obvious necessity a hot take? Of course they should. Justice should exist for the wronged, not just the privileged.

Hot Take: I think all the companies forced to censor themselves because of Payment Processors, needs to come together to sue them for extortion

@SneedMaxx @GreenTextRepost THAT - the lack of people who know and love the subject matter - is the key. Greed, and unaccountability have replaced passion and the desire to make great experiences.

@GreenTextRepost Don't forget about goofy ass cheat codes. Paintballs in Goldeneye and flying dogs in AOE2 immediately come to mind. Programmers used to be gamers.

Anon enjoys an old game and no DRM

@Pirat_Nation Suits don’t see art, creativity, possibility, or anything their marks - excuse me, customers - want. They only perceive two things: avarice, and paranoia regarding that greed. Any and all decisions they make are based off of one or both of those factors. Wealth spawns evil.

The YouTube channel PokéNational Geographic has been terminated after Nintendo issued multiple copyright strikes. Animator Elios created a fan series that presented Pokémon in the style of realistic National Geographic nature documentaries, using fully original hand-drawn imagery paired with official game sound effects. Despite the creator offering to remove all videos, the strikes exceeded YouTube’s limit and forced the channel offline. The series had built a dedicated following for its unique, documentary-style take on the Pokémon universe. Nintendo really is evil, they could actually offer him sponsorship and create something unique

36 years of IT, and I gotta say it gobsmacks me how people think #WindowsDefender is capable of protecting their PCs in any capacity. Flimsy placebo-ware made by a company with a history of unreliability and security holes is NOT a security solution. Someone has to say it.

@Wokenessisevil @EndWokeness Most politicians belong in jail, really, but still a fair point.

@EndWokeness Most of democrats belong in jail!

BREAKING: California Democrats reject a bill to make sx trafficking minors a felony once again Opponents say it would hurt equity

@fuckyouiquit No politician should ever be paid higher than minimum wage. I mean… it’s not like a single one of them does any actual work. Let’s see how often costs of living are raised when they have to suffer their own decisions.

More and more Americans are resorting to going into debt simply to get something to eat. 41% are also having a hard time making payments on these food loans (fucking food loans, jesus christ). This is what decades of trickle down gets you.

@Vara_Dark Is anything acceptable on YouTube anymore? Everything I watch is either censored to the point of being mute, or read out by intolerable AI voices that pronounce a word a dozen different ways (usually none of which are correct).

🤨 Knees are unacceptable on YouTube, now…. 🥴

@MomsPostingLs Why can’t some understand that not wanting to physically engage with someone on an intimate level is IN NO WAY the same as hating them / being intolerant? People today react as if all interpersonal interaction is somehow sexually motivated. So wrong.

@IncelsCo @dyingscribe I agree except for the haircut part. Tried that “fitting in” thing more than a couple times; learned the hard way about following their rules just means they change and add new rules. Never again. I may die alone, but at least I can recognize and respect the guy in the mirror.

@dyingscribe That's not an argument. Expensive haircuts are cope if you're an unattractive man. I will still get a haircut every so often, but I don't pretend that it's going to make a difference.

Nigga, you won't even get a shape-up. You can't give examples for the "average guy."

@men_are_human That attitude and mindset shouldn’t even exist in people trolling, let alone in an emphatic, unironic statement. Not even being funny when I say if someone I knew said that, I’d narrow my eyes and seriously ask them if they knew who and where they were, and what year it is.

People really feel entitled to men's money and time But then they make up entiee theories to justify saying they don't owe men anything

@CapnDILLIGAF @men_are_human I must say I enjoyed your choice of wording in that. 😁

@woofknight Of course it does. Quality control - and people who actually cared about their work and not solely money - still existed back then. I miss that, and I don’t care how old saying so makes me look. 😁

@IncelsCo @FightWithMemes People have forgotten what qualities are actually worth pursuing, and therefore both desirable in themselves and others. Instead, we’re being force-conditioned to seek facetious, ultimately unimportant details, and then ignore the obvious outcomes those keep leading to.
