I hate when people gatekeep what is"literature" and what is “genre”. One of the more egregious examples is someone was rest to die on the hill that The Time Traveler’s Wife is “literary fiction” instead of “genre fiction” like sci-fi, particularly since time travel is central to the plot.

TL;DR: anyone who calls one type of fiction literature and excludes the rest from that definition is deeply unserious and so are their statements.

This is a false flag operation written in crayon. Laughably transparent as it is internationally illegal. No surprises.

So, not only is this a Dark Souls bridge, it spans over an honest-to-god bottomless pit?

Soap, ballot, jury, cartridge. In that order.

It’s the classic fascist playbook: The Other is an unknowable evil that is simultaneously an existential threat and also incredibly weak.

You can set up a global exception handler in some frameworks. By having multiple (not a crazy amount) of exceptions, you can set up logic for how to handle that kind of error. Then you can just throw the exception instead of writing individual catch blocks.

This is especially helpful in things like a REST API where user input can cause all kinds of fun, let alone network issues, problems with your data source, etc.

This is like Dalinar and the fighting master from Stormlight Archive.

That’s why you set the alternate/exit cases as individual if statements before whatever was going to be inside the original if block.

To me too long to learn that.

Lol I cany’t to say combine war and genocide and put in misogyny. Glad someone beat me to it.

If it’s not available as an Azure service it won’t be used (except for uptime kuma).

What Clive Barker movie do you live in?

Who didn’t?

Oh, it’s open source and you can run your own! Just pay the fee to be part of the centrally managed plan and therefore accessible.

I swear, sometime should fork their repo and retool it to be truly open.

I’d say it depends on the environment. TTRPG tends to attract analytical types and when there’s actual roleplay, is effectively an exercise in taking on the perspective of others. As well, classical RPG fare tends to come down hard on people who act in an oppressive way.

There are many video games that are exercises in empathy (That software company), looking at the bigger picture, and sorting through noise to figure out what’s going on (Torment, Disco Elysium). Additionally, mega corporations are so vilified as to be useable as comedy (Portal). Additionally, there are games which paint the government as morally gray (Control, and yes I know but still).

Then, of course, there’s Fallout.

Games like this are useful because they are narrative simulations; they let you try out different ideas by playing them out. As long as there is some critical thinking and/or media literacy skills present, engaging with these will challenge right wing thinking on different levels.

Yeah. Commits going right to prod makes my skin crawl.

Took me a while to track it down, but I think this is the book to which you were referring.

I make no cleans about the stances of this artist; I just saw this strip years ago.

And in strange memory caches, even death may die.

The dominance is in service to private profits. They keep telling about “America and it’s interests” where the “interests” involved are profits.

Time for testing then 😊

Is there an option for being Evil Overlord List compliant?

Let’s not put Descartes before the horse.
