Shit man, I hope you said as much (and had a cool doctor). I just recently had to have a similar talk with my doc based on past history, and I'm so glad my doc is super chill.

I feel that rejection mood tho. After a certain point, adding another partner just adds so much overhead that it's a pain to deal with (or you can't give everyone what they need).

Honestly, calendaring is probably the hardest part. Managing the authentication and OU structure of a complicated polycule is simple in comparison

And they even have a ticket system? How many people are they seeing?

I legit sent this to my poly group because I've got more than a few technicals friend in there that would giggle about that.

I almost tagged my old manager too, specifically because my throuple jokes about the number of people in their partner space. I can't talk too much because she and I share more than a few partners 😅

Why did you say the best part twice?

This isn't the border czar, this is the guy writing the propaganda/speeches (and thereby influencing the border policy) for the ~~fuhrer~~ president

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck yes

I get the urge to play 2 pretty often, but the version I have is miserable on modern operating systems anytime I try.

I don't know about the coffee and salad dressing,

Remind me not to ask for a cup of "coffee" from you...

What ever do you mean? Are you trying to say that being able to ignore politics is in and of itself a political stance, since being able to ignore politics is a sign of the privilege you have?

Crazy talk.

Vivaldi is by far the best browser out there

Maybe among the wheelchair bound browsers that don't let you properly block ads.

Arguing is easy when you ignore everything you're responding to.

Only the stupid parts of arguments, sorry

Yet some people can regularly use x.com without ever running into Nazis just like the web or the world.

'some people don't see it so it's not a big bit deal' is a fucking moronic argument, barely worth responding to.

Maybe you need to stop speaking a Nazi bar language, abandon the Nazi bar web, or leave the Nazi bar world. Everything is tainted. This is just bad company fallacy mentioned before.

Much like this. Everything you mentioned is actually meaningful or useful. Twitter isn't. Your argument is literally the Reductio ad absurdum fallacy.

You do that: it seems you need to sate your hunger for crayons.

People don't like Nazis, people who support/defend Nazis, or platforms where Nazis are protected and promoted.

Explain what you're doing on the web or in the world.

The same moronic argument as before.

Musk is a hundred billionaire with fuck you money. He bought the platform at a loss while it was only making losses. It's probably still making losses. I doubt it's making any money. Using it while blocking ads (which I've never seen) might increase losses.

And your argument is to support his failing platform.

Calling some communication system a Nazi bar as soon as Nazis aren't silenced is just a subjective judgement.

Promoted by the platform is the same as not silencing them, clearly.

All you're defending is acting morally superior by judging the people who don't cower off as going to a "Nazi bar"

No, I'm looking down on you for defending your use of a failing platform that's gone wildly against normal people and their craziness is only being propped up by inertia and you're doing everything you can do to cover for your choice.

when really you're not morally superior at all: you're giving up by failing to stand by your convictions & letting the extremists increasingly sway public discourse on a popular platform. It's a load of shit.

Or I'm choosing not promote a far right site bought by a billionaire with the express purpose of using the existing user base to spread far right propaganda, limit the ability of people to see the shit people post unless they make an account, and generally upset the applecart.

But you're definitely soooooooooo much better because you choose to hang on the Nazi site willingly and twist yourself up in a pretzel to justify your choice.

I'm amused at how upset you are about my choice in words though, I'm sure you'll come up with some other idiotic reason why your choice to support a Nazi billionaire who brought out MechaHitler in response to 'woke' AI is the real moral choice.

Don't care one way or the other, I'm not bothering with you any longer. 🤡🤡🤡

Bing is hardly better most of the time, and ddg pulls from one of the two if memory serves.

Literally the first sentence

A few hours ago, reports surfaced that Larian are making use of generative AI during development of their new RPG Divinity - specifically, to come up with ideas, produce placeholder text, develop concept art, and create materials for PowerPoint presentations.

Only if you have to put down the PETA person whenever they lose a race or mildly injure themselves

PETA is basically just a concern trolling organization. Their version of animal welfare is to murder animals that come into their shelters.

Also, it's hilarious to watch them defend themselves and try to attack a group of people that ACTUALLY CARES FOR ANIMALS instead of just playing at rule changes (and murdering animals out in their care).

PETA can get fucked with the business end of a rusty rake.

PETA can only take the easy and lame options, which is why they went after my mom

Because corporations are only people when it comes to good things. If it's a bad thing, corporate veil protects the people doing the crimes because they have (what no one who puts any thought to it would believe is) plausible deniability because they never told people to do illegal things, they just said they wanted something done and let their underlings figure it out.

Pedantry gone too far!

Mitochondria would be grammatically correct because there are multiple mitochondrion in the cell. Referring to only one of them would be inaccurate.

I never liked this stupid idea.

The 'stupid idea' that people don't want to be around Nazis? 🤔

If anti-Nazis start to hang out at a bar, does it become an anti-Nazi bar?

Muh both sides.

What about both Nazis & anti-Nazis: who wins? It seems you privilege the presence of Nazis in deciding the kind of bar it is with no chance of anyone else showing up to decide the kind of bar they make it with their mere presence. You privilege Nazis

Do I really have to explain to you why Nazis coming into a bar is different than anti-nazis coming into a bar to normal people? If so, I'll have to go break out the big box of Crayola for you.

As to the rest, I've played this game before, and it's not worth my time to argue with Nazis directly, especially when the platform is moderating against normal people. I'd rather see the platform user count fall and it fail vs giving them money and traffic. There are plenty of other social media sites out there, stop propping up the shitty ones.

I fear it won't be long before people decide to an hero in a spectacular way against their local fascist strongholds for the same reasons you outline.

At some point, people are going to have nothing to lose and the desire to send a message to those in power.
