Calling it one law may have been oversimplifying it on my part. It's more of a concert of laws and case law. Here is a summary with sources.

You're criticizing capitalism fundamentally, which is valid. I wasn't going that far. I didn't think revolution was within the scope of this imaginary protest agenda we're setting here. So baby steps. Reining in unbridled capitalism wherever possible (and necessary) is better than nothing.

As a bit of a left field addition to other good suggestions already in this thread:

Rescind the fiduciary duty of any officer in a corporation to increase shareholder value no matter what. Exceptions must be made for cases where it would hurt the environment (anywhere on the planet and judging by the strictest state laws in effect), cause excessive loss of jobs, or hurt consumers.

I think a lot of problems of late stage capitalism are downstream consequences from this stupid law.

The OSs aren't forks as far as in aware. So this turd in the water will flow downstream and then it depends. Can they excise this dev database checkup? Or will they fork (or at least try)? I think we have to wait and see.

The availability of apps will probably decrease. Although with the latest advanced flow of the turd that will allow installation after a 24h cooling off period, a restart, a piece of your soul, and your firstborn it will probably not be a bad as we had initially thought. Still shit though.

There is no way in hell that this checkup Google will conduct will be looked at by actual people. This will be automated. I predict this will be a cat and mouse game where hackers will find a way to bypass this, Google will find out and fix it, whereupon hackers will find a way to bypass that, and so forth. As Google will be the mouse in that game, they might tire of it.

The simplest answer might be that not all people who reviewed it there liked it as much as you do. I would say it also doesn't matter. Even fans like different things. You like what you like. The internet will never agree with you 100 per cent. I feel 7/10 is about right for SNW and the plant zombies. But I also don't completely hate Nemesis so my taste is at least questionable.

Is there something wrong with making a new account to make a discussion post about a video?

If the video is from a platform whose algorithm thrives on controversy, is presented in a context of controversy, on a new account, it's at least suspicious here on the lemmyverse.

So you've been thinking about joining the fediverse but it was this video you wanted to share with us that finally made you pull the trigger? It's a sequence of events I find inherently sus.

Is this not a forum website?

Yes, it is. And as such it is sometimes abused by people with ulterior motives.

This is ridiculous behavior.

That is both your prerogative to think so and a matter of opinion.

I've been respectful and open to every single person I've responded to. I am not creating drama or name calling.

Your eagerness to engage virtually any comment on this niche subject is what I find suspicious. It's the eagerness you also see by people who abuse Lemmy for rage bait.

If there's drama being created on this post, it's because people can't stand Mutahar. And I agree with them! But as someone who refuses to be an ideologue living in an echo chamber, I watch content from sources I don't agree with too, and I discuss it. I don't get what problem you have with this.

I don't know who that is and don't care enough to find out. I refer you to my criticism of the source of the video. My suspicion, which I have to say your comments have not diminished, is that you created this account and this persona to generate more views to feed the algorithm on YouTube and not because you wanted to have a serious discussion about the subject.

Correction: so you made a new account on this instance and then posted it.

I'm just spit balling here. Is it possible that the intent of this post is not to have a discussion about OSs but to boost the YouTube views? It's just a vibe I'm getting. New account, very eager to reply, posting this out of the blue.

If the video is on YouTube, they make a thumbnail pulling a dumb face, and it gets presented in a forum like this with a whiff of controversy about it, personally, I'll refuse to look at it.

Has there been a feature film starring somebody who came up through the influencer game that enough people here would have heard of to be able to answer this question? I can't think of any. Can anyone else?

Talent is not necessarily a prerequisite for a long acting career. Exhibit A: Arnold Schwarzenegger. So maybe some TikTokers who act out silly mini one-person plays have a leg up on some established names in Hollywood.

Also, TV and the movie industry are in trouble. Receding commercial revenues and the age of streaming and not going to the movies are hurting them badly. Going after some influencers may be more of a fight for survival, to make money off of younger demographics, than a veritable search for acting talent.

That's something. But I wouldn't call that a sandwich.

Is there anything on the bread though? I was doing the mental math and I can find combos of soup with undressed bread to dip into it, tomato soup and baguette are maybe the most commonly known of the kind. But it strikes me the idea of soup and a two slices of bread with something in between is very anglosaxon, possibly more North American thing.

I think it's called "no strings attached."
