The more Meta and metaverse shoots itself on the foot, the funnier it gets.

The best part is that in the end, it’s probably a win for us either way - we’ll likely get a cool VR world thing (but probably not made by Meta, someone else will sweep in and do it properly) and with any luck we get to see the demise of easily the most morally bankrupt bottom-feeder software megacorp as it’s burned…

Oh yes, this is so very entertaining to watch. From the rebrand to Meta (which probably cost them more than 100 households make in a year) due to how disastrous the FB branding was going, to this wildly unsuccessful attempt at creating a metaverse (and all the lil’ funnies that have come along the way), there is so…

The guys that claim AI generated images as their own work are clearly commiting copyright infrigement and we should shun those, but I don’t think we should have a hate boner for AIs in general just because of them. 

The way I see it, this is like hating knives because someone got stabbed with it instead of hating the…

“But there’s something especially funny about this in particular”

Get ready for the apologists guys, you’ll eventually encounter some of them around.

Grimace has awakened to his true form, and is going to bring about the Third Impact

Ultra Instinct Shaggy is big chungus or the KFC dating sim all over again. People just lapping up corporate memes like brand approval is meaningful validation.

Thoughtless? Explain how “let’s not make her look like a Karen” is thoughtless? “Its a cartoon!” That’s minimizing. It was cringe when Disney made cartoons with black face, and when they made the Crows in Dumbo “act like black folk of the era”. That’s not funny or interesting or an interesting insight, it’s just weird…

I appreciate your saying, but he does know. He was pretty devastated when he found out the person he’d swapped with had given him a lot of fakes, but has decided he’s going to keep them anyway.

I try not to be a jealous person but man... a 10th of what this person spent on a single free to play game would be life changing for me.

Guy can’t even admit that he’s doing this because it’s moderately challenging and also pretty fun. He has to pretend to himself that it’s somehow noble, that he’s doing it for anyone’s benefit other than himself. What a jerk.

He might be saying he ‘wants to get caught’ so that the ‘exploit gets fixed’, but fucking up people’s games is not how to do that. Just because you say you have noble purpose doesn’t mean you aren’t being an asshole.

The “solution” is the same as it ever was: Listen to the criticism of marginalized people and try to do better next time.

You see by putting in that proviso they get to sweep that interpretation of their article to the side as illegitimate. I don’t make the rules, but that’s how they work.  This allows them to then proceed to engage in the overly cynical and bad-faith interpretation, because at the end of the day that’s much easier than…

I feel I should offer a correction: While Olivier did say those words to Hoffman, the circumstances in which he said them were completely taken out of context and had nothing to do with critiquing the Method. Hoffman himself explained what happened: during the making of Marathon Man, he was going through a divorce,…

Yes, I wonder if their bots will delete posts about nonconsensual pussy grabbing?  Let’s look forward to finding out.

You know how you know something ain’t right but it’s funny and then Neil deGrasse Tyson jumps out of a closet and fucks up your whole day?

I loved the book, the show never came close to matching my enjoyment of the book. 

At best.  I dont pay for paramount plus so...ill wait.  Not venturing into movie theaters yet.  The most willing to go to theaters are also the least likely to be vaccinated.  Ive had covid, id prefer not to get it again.
