I mean for them, because this is what they have to live with

Keep in mind that Frozen came out in 2013, 12 years ago. The children who were in the prime target demographic back then (4-10 years old), are teens/adults now (16-22). Some of those kids will have imprinted on Elsa a little harder than anyone intended. So when they start developing their sexuality, they somehow have a preference for blonde braids and pointy noses. There’s really nothing wrong with that. Just be happy it wasn’t Olaf.

It could be a relatively small number of users all making a disproportionally large number of posts. Like a single Minecraft streamer with too much time on his hands.

I was one of those people who bought Puyo Puyo Tetris as their first Puyo game, mainly to have a 1v1 Tetris on Switch. Turns out I really like Puyo though, but… “the tetris player is at a slight disadvantage”. Or, as this video essay explains, the problem with PPT is that the two games are fundamentally so different it’s impossible to balance them. Forcing them to play competitive online against each other, will always end up with a monoculture. In this case no one can play the first half of the Frankensteined game.

I’m sure Sega must realize that. Now they just have to care.

4chan has been the toilet of the internet for 22 years. They can stay down for months without it affecting anyone’s loyalty. Their bigger issue has been the battle against spam making it harder and harder for normal users to post anonymously. Since they implemented the new captchas, activity went down hard and it basically killed a few smaller boards where the users were more casual and less motivated anyway.

There’s a project called FChannel that implements ActivityPub, but I honestly don’t see the point. What would federation add to the chan experience? The boards on 4chan were almost separate websites anyway. There are no accounts. There is no interaction across threads. The only shared part is the UI. So you could achieve basically the same thing if everyone hosted a single board with vichan.

I was there in the first Qanon post. I thought it was a genius troll and made a few bait posts myself. Then all the normies came over and started talking about bread on facebook. That’s when I knew the containment had been breached and we were in for a wild few years…

Would a right-wing grifter tell you to give to the poor?

Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

(Matthew 19:21)

Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.

(Luke 12:33)

A right-wing grifter would twist these words to make it so he is the poor, but the OG doesn’t have to twist anything. If he wanted money, he could have asked for money. Instead he explicitly tells everyone to do good deeds, over and over. And it confused a great deal of people for thousands of years.

Thus, the Court easily concludes that the public has a strong interest in knowing the identity of the corporate entity that operates this website and is appearing in federal court

I come there all the time and I have absolutely no interest in knowing who operates it tbh. That information can basically only be used to do harm to nhentai.

California-based rightsholder PCR Distributing, which operates under brands including J18 and JAST USA, initiated action against nHentai last summer, describing the site as a significant threat to its business.

I don’t know them, but JAST sells visual novels and other software (so no hentai) and J18 is a Halland-class destroyer of the Swedish Navy, so maybe they’re being threatened by the amount of KanColle doujins showing the superior physical assets of Japanese warships.

I would rather date an operating system than an LLM. The OS can be trusted with elevated rights and access to my files.

I had the same experience, but I recently helped my sister with a homework essay and she had a full page with the exact requirements and how they were graded.
90% of the points were for content, the types of arguments, proper structure and such. Only 10% were for spelling and punctuation.
Meaning she could hand in a complete mess, but as long as her argument was solid and she divided the introduction, arguments and conclusion into paragraphs, she’d still get a 9/10. No grumpy teachers docking half her grade for a few commas. She gets similar detailed instructions for every subject where I used to struggle with vague assignments like “give a good presentation”. It was so bad sometimes, the teacher let the class grade each other.

(Note we aren’t American, not even English.)

If you do a rough estimation in one unit, you don’t have to do 4 significant figures for the converted units. Just round it to 50kg or whatever, and do your calculations (101*50) in the converted units instead of converting again, so the numbers line up nicely in either unit.

Yeah, I expected them to ask the full $60 for it, which would be completely unreasonable, but at least I understand why they wouldn’t give it away then. But 10? They could easily eat that, they just don’t want to.

Either way, I can’t imagine anyone paying for a “game” that’s nothing more than an instruction booklet. If it were free, maybe someone would open it while Mario Kart is downloading.

I see you didn’t end that last thought with death to America. How easily the common man’s mind is distracted from the downfall of an empire by a little sun. The weather is nice despite the president’s best efforts to boost the stock value of umbrella corporations.

Pisang goreng enters the chat…

Because the category of “sexual or gender minority” is broad and hard to define. Border control is going to enforce it arbitrarily and based on vibes. All kinds of people will be mistreated for any reason at all and it will be justified with anti-queer arguments. In the end it isn’t about LGBTQ at all, it’s about power and whatever convenient excuse they find to gain more power.

If your remote is completely empty and has no commits, you can just push normally. If it has an auto-generated “initial commit” (pretty sure Github does something like that), you could force push, or merge your local branch into the remote branch and push normally. I think cloning the repo and copying the contents of your local repo into it is the worst option: you’ll lose all local commits.

Despite all her frustration with the language, she speaks it very well. And she’s totally right of course, Wikipedia even includes the demonym in the cheat sheet on every country page, just because no one ever knows them.
