  • The fact that every billionaire will gleefully kill you, me and everyone to make number go up would, if humans were even a little rational, be enough evidence for their immediate liquidation. Capitalism is providing the best evidence for it’s own destruction and yet people just don’t see it because they personally aren’t starving and freezing right now.





  • I have thousands of hours in DF…and I really wish it wasn’t a buggy mess.

    Marksdwarves not taking arrows? Follow this easy 20 step guide of obtuse mechanics that circumvent what’s probably several bugs?

    You fixed them taking ammo? Great, good job! Are they using the training room you set up verifiably correctly? No? Well sucks.

    There are so many instances of this. Exploding trees killing woodcutters if trees grow into one another. Items left perpetually on the floor that can never be moved again. Military squads never returning from expeditions, forever blocking their noble spots and sometimes making it impossible to refill any positions…endless problems.

    A lot of it can be fixed with DFhack but not all of it can. I am happy they are doing fresh content for the game, but I also wish they would take, like, two years to fix all the known bugs that have been in the game for several years. And while the steam version has a better interface then what was there before, it’s hardly perfect. It’s mostly just a bit more user friendly while being obtuse in new and inventive ways.

    Why am I writing all this? Honestly I don’t know. I just…the game is uniquely frustrating, but so cool when it does miraculously work.



  • So I have a latex fetish. A lot of the AI art i am exposed to is latex art for that reason and, sadly, people who make AI art like to make shiny/latex art because it actually simplifies the image and makes the generation superficially better.

    The problem is, the lighting is always all fucked up. The most important part is all fucked up and wrong, the angles are random and bad and there are random light sources, backlights and nonsensical shadows everywhere. It’s terrible to look at, feels wrong.

    To me, this effect is also present on other generated images and i have kinda learned to recognize it now. Comes in handy.

    But yea, what I just said about lighting and shadow you can say about every other aspect of the art as well. Too many details, details in weird places, things merging together. it’s just gibberish in the form of a picture.

    And when it comes to comic,s aka art with more then one panel that is supposed to have a recognizable style and design to each aspect, this is absolute poison. A character with a robotic arm will just have a human hand in the 3rd depiction because that is how the generation went and the cretin writing the prompts didn’t care. No one in the chain knows anything about the art from and so it is bad.

    Ah okay so it doesn’t matter that the Dems are ineffective stooges who are doing all the work they can not to get elected, got it.

    Like, if the MAGA party cheats so much, how come they win? Yes, they cheat, but bow come they are allowed to do that? Shouldn’t their so-called opposition stop them? How come that doesn’t happen? How come that they only seem to continue the politics of the MAGA people, like Biden did after Trump and like Kamala promised to do if elected?

    You have a child’s understanding of politics. Realize the political class as a whole is not out for your benefit and the game is fucking rigged.

    Funniest shit I’ve ever seen. The Republicans didn’t need to cheat! Fucking acknowledge that the Democrats were willing patsies in getting Trump a second term, same as for the first. They could easily win elections by moving their politics even slightly left, but prefer to lobby exclusively for the votes of the seven undecided enlightened centrists in the country, then blame anyone left of those imaginary dudes when they inevitably lose.






  • I’d say that the politicians, at least the ones higher up, are captured by the people with the money, who make sure to keep them compliant by giving them bribes (both legal and illegal), as well as cushy jobs once their time in politics is over. It’s not a failure of the system, it’s capitalism working as intended.

    This is true at least for the major parties like CDU and SPD in Germany. The Greens too these days, there’s very little conviction left in them. FDP is the only party that would change nothing if the bribery stopped, they are true sickos and in it for the love of the game. but with most of them, I really believe they are just cynically accepting that changing anything would be hard, while taking the money is so so very easy.


  • The pattern in Germany is literally identical to the US and everyone can see it, yet the same thing happens. In France as well, same shit. Both our imperialist overlord and the direct neighbor falling in the same way?! Nope, we can’t see a pattern, we gotta stay the course! Gotta turn this ship to the right to catch those four undecided voters! It’s not worked for 20+ years, but this time, things will be different!

    It really is amazing that these people, who see themselves as very smart and very important, step on the same exact land mine over and over and over and over again, learn no lessons and repeat the process, walking on their remaining extremities.

    Liberalism is not just objectively the moderate wing of fascism, it is also objectively the most delusional.
