I thought for a little while that gamergate was about ants. Like it had become a meme or something, I wasn't aware of the controversy. That was an innocent day or two before checking out what it was actually about.

Hearing lofi hiphop in a coffee advert felt like all the good will I had felt toward the studious girl in a gif had evaporated.

Yeah, but, like, I don't know what KonMari is except that it's about throwing things away and there was some racism brouahaha on social media back in the day and everyone had to take a strong stance on keeping the household neat and tidy.

The footage, however, is so realistic it's indistinguishable from the real deal if it were attempted. Stanley Kubrick spent a year sculpting a 1:1 scale model out of cheese and his notoriously perfectionistic tendencies led the NASA to think it would have been easier to go to the real moon instead.

Why I wrote this: social media is a big part of contemporary lives yet I don't really see much in the way how to use it well as an individual, save for fear mongering and counter mongering. I remember /u/devtesla posting an article once on Rihanna's social media use which seemed pretty cool and aspirational and which was pretty much about embracing less.

Yeah, the Yuzu blogger seems pretty good at turning bugfixes into stories.

I'm proud to have been a part of his audience before the haversplosion.

Honestly I am quite technical an user and I really haven't stumbled upon an IRC client that I really like, approximately in the same way as I enjoy using a well-designed toaster. The one I used the longest was the one in Emacs! Discord is kinda pretty ok if you forget about the corporate side.

There are guides to getting books you want on IRC. I haven't used them for fiction but they seem to have the goods. I suspect you can figure out the rest yourself.

Mutual aid above copyright, always.

Didn't except to see such a clear example of unnecessary asymptomatic complexity in a video game.

Normalize pineapple on pizza!

She's a very good essayist, actually. I haven't yet read her fiction save for two short stories, actually. She's on my list, however.

Did you read to the end?

I've about 50% forgotten what this product was again.

Tbh I'm not entirely sure it's a coherent category? I like plenty of functionnal programming things and some of them I want to see in imperative contexts as well.

I'm just a little dubious about many categorizations.

I think the closest thing to a good answer would have to deal with discourse norms. Putting some boundaries for asking questions is arguably good, actually, if the goal is to foster some kind of understanding. Especially if the norms are set up so that every answer must be up to a demanding standard, an easy way to try to control the discourse is just asking questions, since it's a cheap tactic.

With teens though, you probably should cut some slack. Growing up in a bullshit world necessarily leads to bullshitting in the people growing up.

Honestly seeing the length scared me, but his lucid argument that Tokimeki memorial is more cyberpunk than things visually resembling cyberpunk sold me.
