I hate how people are constantly accusing us of brigading because a post hit our /all page. If you don't want hexbear users in your comment section, then you should defederate. That's how the fediverse works.

If their genders were reversed people would call it grooming.

You do it in boot camp and then never again, unless you're in the band or the drill team I guess. These guys are probably gonna be practicing for a few weeks before the real thing, though that doesn't mean it will look great because I'm sure there are a bunch of problems that they'll run into on the day of that they haven't thought of yet.

shit how do I get a job at a laptop farm

I wouldn't even try to hide it, call my LLC "Carl's Always-On Juche Laptops" and cover the building in DPRK flags and propaganda posters.

thesis: anticommuunists suck at propaganda

antithesis: anticommunist propaganda is ubiquitous and has beenn very effective

synthesis: Anticommunist propaganda has never had to try very hard in the English-speaking world for many reasons. 1) They are able to say whatever they want without pushback in most cases, because most communist countries don't produce a counter-narrative in English. 2) A large portion of the English-speaking world reside in the imperial core and benefit greatly from capitalism, and therefore will not closely interrogate pro-capitalist motivated reasoning. 3) When all else fails, the states of imperial countries have moved in and prevented successful English-speaking communist movements from being successful by other means ie assassination and sabotage.

The most you can do with him is have him be like a horror movie monster where he shows up and kills a bunch of rebels who are helpless before him. But you gotta build up to that by making us care about the rebels in question so we feel bad when they get murked.

Oblivion ported to Skyrim's engine, ability to travel between Skyrim and Cyrodil on one character, similar to Tale of two Wastes and Morroblivion and Skywind.

Nothing currently in development would have been considered "AI" ten years ago. That term has been irrevocably ruined by techbro marketers.

Not liking generated content is a temporary thing. Soon all mainstream entertainment will be generated to a certain degree, and people complaining about how hands and backgrounds sometimes shift in uncanny ways will be brushed off and told that they're ruining it for everyone else. Insisting on reading/watching "real" art will make you an insufferable hipster as far as the average consoomer is concerned.

The silver lining is that in about thirty years "human generated art" will get its nostalgic revival.

The Famicom version was re-released on iOS through the PicoPico service and Windows through Project Egg in 2021, although references to Gorbachev have been removed or censored, including a game name change to Pipeline Daisakusen.

Capitalism no free speech.

Every day I feel more validated in my "they don't know what they're doing so they're doing a bunch of contradictory things" analysis.
