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.

The left wing of the right wing. Sounds right.

Ohhh, that touched a deep well of hatred. My first engineering job was full stack and we had a highly modified Bootstrap front end. I’d build the thing they wanted, and the designers would get looped in for QA and insist that various pieces had to look like their little wireframe down to the pixel. I mean look, it’s easy right?

I asked why they are insisting on constantly going against the standards that had been adopted company-wide. Did it stop? Why no! Did I get a suit down with my boss? Why yes!

He is/was a cool guy and saw my perspective but also gave me precious advice on how to survive.

Pfft 😂

Roko’s basilisk is The Game for futurists.

Here you go, enjoy. You win!

Insert joker eating popcorn gif here.

Also uses ableist language.

Here’s one: Trading cards are something you own. Skins are limited to a game you’re licensing.

Here’s another: trading cards are portable; they can be put in a collection for display, put in a safety deposit box, etc. When CS goes, all the skins go with it.

Another minor one: baseball cards are informational, the skins are cosmetic only.

Mind you, I think both are forms of unregulated gambling and trading cards as well as loot boxes should have better societal scrutiny, but they aren’t identical.

Edited for typo

I worked for them for about five years. This is accurate.

I experienced this and still get PTSD flashbacks 😢
