  • What is my “unpopular opinion” in my comment ?

    All I see is me saying that no subjects should be downvotes just for their subject rather than a disagreement on a unpopular opinion.

    I’m not saying you should not downvote content you disagree with. I’m saying that no matter what is said about AI it’s getting downvoted for the sole reason that it is about AI.

    Again I was not expressing a clearly unpopular opinion around here that AI is good, yet I’m still downvoted just because that conversation is AI adjacent…

    I sure hope saying all subjects should be freely talked about as long as its within the rules of that instance is not an unpopular opinion.

    And yes, I do think massive downvotes for not even taking a stance or an opinion on a matter is a pretty big disruption of discourse.











  • I played Early Access and even as an avid factorio player I wasn’t convinced.

    There is something that makes it meaningless in the fact we are just building shapes.

    In Factorio, if I create a battery factory I just automated a core component for a specific range of items and technologies.

    In Shapez, you make an arbitrary shape and that’s it.

    It wasn’t for me.

    Now I will give it another chance and I totally understand that to some it might be a purer form of factory management games, but to me it will probably lack purprose.

    Interested to check the Manufacture mode though.

    My best friend recently told me :

    “Did you see the image of the original moon landing ? It looks so so fake”

    I was shocked. An engineer with supposedly a scientific background was starting to take on conspiracy theories.

    I just said that the moon landing was not fake and that it would have been impossible to fake something on this scale and that there was plenty of documentation about the Apollo mission online.

    But I feel sad because it’s obvious his social network interactions online are pushing him toward very toxic content.
