It’s called an “MBA” and they are the tip of the enshitification spear

Hard disagree. It was the quality of season 2 that gave me apathy.

I get regular content releases with the manga. They damn well better do it justice

So, let me get this straight.

Given a choice between evil Pinocchio (this time with international strings!) and a violently orange water balloon filled to bursting with bull’s shit, you’d chose the wooden puppet to throw at the massive human rights abuse apparatus currently fucking everyone’s data up the ass?

Let me know how that goes for you.

Me suspects the latter

That’s time wasted and you’re usually manipulated into it anyway with cliffhangers and flashy visuals instead of quality content.

If something is going to face plant like game of thrones, I want to know in the beginning before I get invested. All forms of marketing are geared toward hiding those face plants to drive viewership, but it’s the only metric people really care about: is this movie essentially longform clickbait that isn’t going to pay off in the end, like so much of the other shit coming out recently

Every problem looks impossible until you see the solution, and then it was obvious the whole time.

The feeling never goes away, instead you do what some other commenters have suggested:

• pick a project
• get it building locally so you can fix something
• pick a bug from the list
• get to work. Understanding what to write means understanding what the solution is, which means understanding the problem and the scope of it, what parts you can fix and what not. This process is more akin to going on a nature hike than painting the view, but people always seem to assume coding is more like the latter.

Tbh, you will likely be able to eventually solve any bug, given time and effort. Reaching out to discord groups in the language or product domain when you have questions will speed the process up.

Believe it or not those are all solved problems

The largest blockers to implementing them for voting are no longer technological, they’re political

We can absolutely cryptographically verify your voting choice from your phone, and have you and everyone be able to verify when it changed, where, on what device, etc, while also preserving the anonymity of the voter.

(Edit: while also making it far easier to combat fraud by making elections trivial enough to go “ok, everyone go check and resubmit your choices!” And immediately validate the majority of the votes as valid, minus those who don’t have internet access who would still need to travel)

Problem is, there are a lot of very powerful organizations who would suddenly lose much of that power if voting were in any way convenient and accessible to everyone.

and imagines herself as a rapist, and is proud of it (per her posted content)

There should be legal limits to this level of narcissistic assholism

Until they add a history feature for edits (i’d really appreciate that, actually. I edit my shit all the time just to fix errors, but i know there’s plenty who use the feature maliciously to change how an argument sounded)

And you’re dreaming if you think reddit can’t get whatever you “overwrote” back.

And this is different from everywhere and anywhere else… how?

Edit: No, seriously, this is meant to be a public square where people can talk freely.

What part of “public” do people not understand?
