Except this is the 6th recall this year

Fascists co-opt other groups and movements constantly because fascists don’t create, they only take and destroy. But hydro homies is well past it’s incredibly edgy start and is now just the liquids equivalent of Linux users - never shutting up about how superior they are for doing a minor thing.

Fascists definitely love the in group-ness of it, but there’s no “only soda” group that’s fighting them and therefore no one to point to as an “other” to forward fascist ideals. Hydro homies is extremely low on the priority for the fascist pipeline. They are incredibly obnoxious when they leak out though.

Also, I vote the potential only sodas group to be called the “soda jerks”

Wtf do hydro homies have to do with this?

I’ve been using Firefox on Android since it came out. I’ve had 0 issues.

And as far as I’m aware, the newest version of Android Firefox (previously called “preview” doesn’t use an ounce of chrome, even for temporary browser pages

Firefox also has a mobile app with full extension support on Android, including uBlock origin

Army and Navy mostly

To my knowledge, DNS blockers not only miss a ton of ads, they also trigger several false positives.

A better solution is to switch to something not chromium like Firefox or whatever alternative the next Linux person to read this comment recommends

Man, you have way more confidence in the military not being full of MAGA idiots than I do.

As someone constantly surrounded by people in the military - they’re almost all MAGA idiots, and the ones who aren’t are fence sitting “libertarians” who go right wing every time.

I was just discussing with a friend of mine how we’re rapidly approaching the dead internet. At some point, many websites will likely just be chat bots talking to other chat bots, which then gets used to train further chat bots. Human made content is already becoming harder and harder to find on algorithm heavy websites like Reddit and facebooks suite of sites. The bots can easily outpace any algorithmic changes they might make to help deter them, but my fb using family members all constantly block those weird Jesus accounts and they still show up constantly

Funnily enough, the bot everyone identified as tik tok hasn’t hit me as far as I’m aware. It’s mostly been random LLM bots grabbing data to train.

I should specify - I have family of various, but typically quite low, technical skills and of various far distances apart that use the server. So it’s either walk them through getting the IP of every device they access with or driving up to about 8 hours away to do it myself.

I have family and friends that also access the sites contents, so that’s sadly not feasible without getting the IPs from dozens of different devices

Thankfully they haven’t bricked my modem yet, but it’s possibly worth looking into

Yeah, desensitizing people to violence is the original argument. It’s always “if they’re willing to shoot people in video games, why not real life!?” Crap.

It’s been disproven so often that my shitty little uni assigned that research to first year psych students. It’s not a thing. Media is a reflection of society, not society itself. Violent societies like violent media. Violent media doesn’t create violent societies. Propaganda based media can, but no one’s committing murders cause they saw Knives Out or played COD 23

My personal website that primarily functions as a front end to my home server has been getting BEAT by these stupid web scrapers. Every couple of days the server is unusable because some web scraper demanded every single possible page and crashed the damn thing

Have we looped back around to blaming media for violence again? This was disproven in the 70s with rock, the 80s with dungeons and dragons, the 90s with metal, and the 2000s with anything anti war or America. Can we stop trudging up this argument? Please?

Automations great…

If there’s a plan in place to support the displaced workers. Right now, they’ll just be fired and the owners will keep making more money. Until there’s a support system in place for them, I’m with the workers 100% on not automating everything

There’s monster collecting and battling, something numerous other games have done.

That’s where the similarities really end

Has Firaxis released a game since Civ 6, which was better than most at launch, but still rough

Edit. Forgot they did Midnight Suns and XCOM Chimera Squad. Both released fully working to my knowledge

I mean, gaming patents are horse shit from stage one. There’s 0 reason you should be able to patent a method or mechanic in a creative medium other than creepy corporate BS
