  • Kingsman the villain was a super genius black guy climate change activist who spent his life battling world leaders and elites to stop pollution, and then he decides he's going to save the world leaders and elites and kill everyone else to stop climate change... the second movie's villain was a woman who did all of that because she wanted to pay taxes to sell weed... I was surprised the next villain about to destroy the world wasn't a transsexual who wanted gender-neutral bathrooms...

  • a progressive writer when she doesn't like to be called "people who menstruate"

  • Thanks

  • "A built-in store" ... but, eh, isn't it "your DRM-free games"?Isn't it just a lobby for social features and an overlay for your list installers/installed games?

  • Architects to engineers? Engineers to construction workers?

  • I don't know Tom Scott but he seems to be what we used to call an essayist. When people started posting short essays on the internet they were called web logs, that soon were popularly called blogs, and then came the video logs, or vlogs, so Tom Scott sounds like a vlogger, and I can respect a vlogger essayist who uses YouTube or whatever as a platform to post his video logs (as I can respect a critic, a journalist, a commentator, etc)."Content Creator" is an umbrella term that actually means nothing, it's for anyone posting anything on pages or channels and they came up with this bullshit term to make it sound grandeur. A guy posts a video commenting about how a barista got his name wrong in the cafeteria or films himself reacting to another video and you are witnessing "Creation"... oh, fuck off, sorry for you kids that grew up with this bullshit being normalized, but I don't buy into it, "Content Creator" is the title given to someone that really can't use any other title (like the several I mentioned in the previous comment - chronicler, comedian, host, entertainer, artist, etc etc), and if one uses the title they are purposely putting themselves in the same category as the guy filming himself reacting to other videos, and I will treat them equally. If I shake hands with someone and they introduce themselves as a Content Creator (or even worse, an Influencer), I will wipe my hand right in front of that person. Fuck corpo newspeak.

  • Ask Experienced Devs @programming.dev

    What's Schema.org really for, how does it help search engines?

  • It could be described as something between linkedinzation and bullshitification, you know, that thing of trying to make everything grandeur and more important because you want to fool somebody you are more than what you actually are... a guy telling the news is an anchor, a guy commenting on the news is a commentator, a guy hosting a talk show is a talk show host, a guy talking about music or movies or video games is a critic, a guy that has a variety show is a host or entertainer, a guy telling jokes is a comedian, there used to be columnists, journalists, bloggers, chroniclers, investigative reporters... a person with no particular talent, skill and function and that's famous for absolute no reason? We used to call them socialites... but these are not enough, these doesn't sound grandeur enough , so any jackass recording a conversation with friends now is a "creator" and an "influencer", and I have zero respect for the whole of it and I pity those who buys into and normalize this bullshitification

  • being a "content creator" does

  • content creator is just a derogatory term for unemployed

  • So "influencers" are losing their jobs? This sound great.As for people who follows "influencers", they were braindead from start so it doesn't really matter.

  • Now I'm going to have to check what R34 have done to Kool-Aid Man...

  • you seem to be neurodivergent, normal people can only do evens and multiples of 5.

  • When I'm watching TV with friends I like to leave the volume at 9, 11, 17... numbers like that, and then act like they are the crazy ones if they get annoyed

  • I very often dream I entered a store and it had tons of old forgotten tapes of bands I never heard of and old zines

  • if it was only 1% of the planets in the universe lifeless, there would already be some sextillions of planets available for the taking, but it's more like 99.99% of the planets are lifeless, so it doesn't sound bad at all they are pumping space exploration to gather resources to increase quality of life for everybody instead just hoarding for a few rich who control the companies doing the exploration

  • I got keratoconus on top of astigmatism, so I get the glare with double or triple vision... I can't drive at night

  • non sequitur

  • Couldn't care less about what consenting adults do.

  • Stonetoss is a piece of shit, it's probably hard to even find a comic of his that isn't against the instance rules. Jago I have only seen what was posted on the community and it was just some stuff to roll your eyes at the sexist inferences (and some other stuff wasn't even bad), but some other stuff of his that were posted here on this thread are blatantly transphobic, so fuck that guy too - however, not feeling unsafe because someone posted a dumb comic on the internet, especially when it's not hateful content like what has been shared on the community, is not a privilege, it's your choice to feel unsafe - because how the fuck anyone in this community can even be a threat? If you let people get into your head that easily, you gonna have an awful time.

    edit: Never mind, I just stumbled upon a video and saw other people using the sentence “feel unsafe” and I realized it doesn’t have anything to do with actual safety, you are just saying you feel uncomfortable but being dramatic about it.

    Can't instances and communities set a default language for posts/comments, and are language tags available for everyone in the Threadiverse?
