I don’t really recall any spacewalks so we don’t see any instance of ‘no gravity’

Leia did one in the sequels.

I guess I was wrong about Orbán. He seemed to want his boots licked, turns out he wants to be a bootlicker. Go figure.

Given enough time, the probability of carcinization being mentioned in any given conversation approaches one. This is known as metacarcinization.

That’s easy to say, I don’t think either of those things is easy to do.

I’m going to misuse my stupid whenever and however I want, and there ain’t a damn thing you can do to stop me!

I get that, but at the same time I don’t. I mean, it doesn’t make sense to me. Expecting endless debate and also expecting correct conclusions to be reached seems contradictory, since once conclusions are reached, debate would cease. This is one of those things that make me feel very uncertain, like when you finish an exam in half the allotted time, watch everyone else keep furiously working, and start questioning whether everyone else is dumb or whether you are and you missed something obvious. I get that feeling a lot when reading/thinking about religion.

Because that’s the purpose of a posermobile, which the vast majority of pickup trucks are.

Hot take: It’s no stupider than any other pickup truck, and at least it stands out. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fugly as hell, but that’s still better than being indistinguishable from every other vehicle in its class.

I’ve heard stuff like this several times from different sources over the years, but I’m still not convinced it’s not some elaborate collective prank. It reads like something written by Terry Pratchett or Douglas Adams.

You think that’s unfair? Guess what, so do I

They deserve no sympathy

Pick one.

Yup. It’s incredibly convenient, I have no idea why people stopped using it. I follow a bunch of youtube channels, webcomics, podcasts, blogs, and apps in development. If there’s some way other than RSS to have all those updates show up on a single page, I don’t know it.

This had me in the first half, but the last sentence makes it clear it’s a complete fabrication with no basis in fact. Business tycoons have always had a disdain for the poor.

Yeah, that sounds like the most plausible explanation. It’s supposed to look like a heraldic lion passant: https://i.imgur.com/ZReMGZF.jpg

The article doesn’t really seem to make any moral argument (probably because it’s unfinished - maybe don’t post it until it is?). Yeah, Discord is financially unsustainable, but that’s just because it’s still in phase one of the enshittification cycle. At this stage, venture capitalists are basically subsidizing the service for everyone. Maybe I’m just myopic, but I don’t really see anything morally wrong with enjoying a service paid for by a greedy billionaire. And once the enshittification ramps up, well, there are always alternatives.

Do people not use it anymore? I still do. I follow a boatload of different youtube channels, webcomics, blogs, etc. If there’s some other way besides RSS to have all of those updates show up on a single page, I don’t know it.
