  • I think you completely missed the point.

    The problem is not that the sign exists, the problem is that people don’t see nothing wrong with it.

    If you were a Jew, how would you feel if you saw Nazi flags on a men’s rights protest? Would you feel safe knowing that men a Nazi is safe around men? (Which probably means many of those men are nazis/nazi sympathizers themselves.).

    That’s how men feel when they see sexist messages in feminist protests go uncontested.

    You can’t be that blind. At pretty much every women’s rights protest there is at least someone with a sign up that reads something like “All men are rapists”. Sure, the protest might not be about that. Sure, not everyone agrees with that kind of statements. But there’s not much opposition either, so that kind of sexist message appears all the time in the news. Furthermore, those spewing sexist bullshit call themselves “feminists”, so young men think that feminism is like that, and now they hate feminism too.

    EDIT: just as an example, right after writing this comment I saw this other one: https://lemmy.world/comment/13322514 it’s impossible to time it better.











  • Windows 11 is little more than a reskin of windows 10, and they still fucked it up.

    Rounded corners are mandatory (Why? I really preferred squared ones). But developers can choose to have their windows square. Why only the developers? Let the user decide how a windows looks like!

    And don’t get me started on the start menu. It was a complete massacre. Tiles are gone (am I the only one that liked them?). Instead, now we pin apps to the start menu. Fine I guess, except for the fact that half of the fucking menu is taken up by fucking recomendations. If I remove every single recommendation, instead of having my space back for more pinned programs I get this message: “oh you like this precious white space? If you turned on some recommendations it would show something”. No, i don’t want recommendations, I want my start menu space back. Which btw in windows 10 used to be resizable to whatever size I wanted.

    Oh and lets not forget about the volume mixer. Which some genius decided that it was better to keep it 10 clicks away from the user in the settings, instead of conveniently at one click in the taskbar. Which they also made the sound settings their own special taskbar element, instead of another taskbar program. So now if I want to replace their shitty sound settings with the ones I like (trumpet btw), now I would have 2 sound settings in the taskbar, while in win10 I only had 1.

    And whose Idea was to join the sound settings and internet settings in the same taskbar button visually? Which is also not the same button functionally. You see, if you press the left side of the button it opens the sound settings, but the right side opens the internet settings. How much do Microsoft UI people get paid?

    I guess we got dark notepad, that’s nice.


  • Logistical problems are still financial problems though. That’s my point. Hire enough people/develop the appropriate automation and the issue is no more.

    We have the technology to solve this, the problem is the money.

    In fact, you could just buy enough batteries and the problem will also go away. Still a financial problem, not a technology one.

    EDIT: just to clarify, if at some point energy prices go negative, it means that it is cheaper to buy energy usage than a solution. Unless the energy company is dumb enough to just lose money for the lazyness of considering other options.



  • Well, game freak is still a Japanese developer. Mario Cart is a very computationally light concept, as usually are Mario games, idk about odyssey in particular though, but they tend to be small maps with small amount of entities each. Zelda is fair, I’ve heard good things about it.

    It’s easy to make a good performing game if its concept and art design are computationally light. Optimization is about turning a computationally hard problem into a light algorithm that doesn’t take much resources.
