Whether out in public or in private is better, depends on context.
Although it’s probably a bit beyond social media debate. When it comes down to “seeing a strangers body floating in the river” , “finding your sibling hanging in the next room” or “found at a kindergarten playground”.
All of those examples are based on real life acquaintances who ended their lives, and their discovery. And to be clear: The kindergarten one was discovered before the kids arrived.
We know, we learned the details about WW2. Our grandparents and great grandparents actually lived through that, and told us the stories.
All the adults told us it would be better for us than for them. While they fucked everything up and then blame us.
I think the biggest one by value is Meta with €1.2b. Although their revenue is in the $150b+ range, so not maxed out.
It started as showing off how new something was, and sometimes brand and/or price. And it turned into a fashion statement. Caps are probably the most famous for leaning into the trend and having giant gold and silver stickers covering the top of the visor.
Indeed, they specifically called it genocide when it was announced. And they voted against their leadership who only wanted one of those “culture and academic” boycotts(a small part of the leadership also wanted to call it “unimaginable suffering” instead of genocide). But the people voted 240 in favor and 69 against an economic boycott. They’re also backing up the UN’s demand of the occupation ending by September. At which point they want Norway to initiate an international boycott if it has not happened.
They have some ties to the current major political party, the Labour Party, who’s leader said he “disagreed”.
For reference, this an “umbrella organization” with two dozen smaller unions totaling over a million people, out of Norways 5.5m total population. They represent around 35% of working adults, meaning that if they go into strike, the country shuts down.
EDIT: It should be mentioned that this was at a yearly conference, which is also why it didn’t happened sooner.
Lufthansa and Air France might have some massive fines incoming.
Now to be fair, there is a massive difference between using the fancy “AI” autocomplete to fill out the rest of a line when writing a function or something. And actually generating music, voice acting, art, etc.
That’s at least where I personally draw the line between proper generative content and not. Partly because the autocomplete is possible without any form of ML. Some of the suggestions are often of similar quality as ones I got in Dreamweaver over twenty years ago.
Wait, it doesn’t appear to be the same within the EU.
Both the French and German EULA seems to say that if you alter a digital product, the digital product might be rendered unusable. Although my French and German is bad, so someone please double check.
Well they want to almost destroy America, that way the rich can buy up everything for cheap and become even more pwoerful. They’re literally trying to recreate the situation that caused the rise of oligarchs in Russia.
And the idiots vote for it because they’ve been brainwashed by propaganda to think they’ll be part of the elite once it’s over.
Conceal Spell
Through sheer mental effort, you can simplify the incantations and gestures needed to spellcast, leaving them barely noticeable. If the next action you use is to Cast a Spell, the spell gains the subtle trait, hiding the shining runes, sparks of magic, and other manifestations that would usually give away your spellcasting. The trait hides only the spell’s spellcasting actions and manifestations, not its effects, so an observer might still see a ray streak out from you or see you vanish into thin air.
Silent Spell (Metamagic)
Benefit: A silent spell can be cast with no verbal components. Spells without verbal components are not affected. A silent spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell’s actual level.
Doesn’t work for Bard spells, although they have a way to disguise theirs:
Melodious Spell
You subtly weave your spellcasting into a performance. If the next action you use is to Cast a Spell, the spell gains the subtle trait, hiding the shining runes, sparks of magic, and other manifestations that would usually give away your spellcasting. The trait hides only the spell’s spellcasting actions and manifestations, not its effects, so an observer might still see a ray streak out from you or see you vanish into thin air.
You posted a youtube short link on lemmy? Yeah, that’s not going to go over well.
There’s a lot of tech literate people here, and from my experience many of them dislike short-form video content with sound. Especially when its from Alphabet, Meta, etc.
There is some C in the game as well:
It’s 99% written in x86 assembler/machine code (yes, really!), with a small amount of C code used to interface to MS Windows and DirectX.

Not sure vampiric “law” cares about renters rights. And if it does, is it based on current laws in the country they are in, or the country of origin? And is it the origin of vampires themselves or just the vampire turned. And is it based on the time they were turned or modern laws?
Either way, in one instance I they bought it from the bank after missed mortage payments. So they weren’t legally living there anyway but counted as last/current resident for the vampire since the bank isn’t a person.
That’s actually a plot point in at least one of the vampire shows. A vampire buys someones home from the bank, and they’re free to enter despite the resident/occupants refusal.
A private company is selling cheap tablets to inmates to let them communicate with their family. They have to use “digital stamps” to send messages, 35 cents a piece and come in packs of 5, 10 or 20. Each stamp covers up to 20,000 characters or one single image.
They also sell songs, at $1.99 a piece, and some people have spent thousands over the years. That’s also now just going away.
Then you get to the part about the new company. Who already has a system in Tennessee where inmates have to pay 3-5 cents per minute of tablet usage. Be that watching a movie they’ve bought or just typing a message.
Yeah, Quake 2 recommended a Pentium 133, and that was released two years earlier(the AMD equivalent was released only a year and a half before the game). It required a Pentium 90 which was three years old, but it didn’t run smooth from what I remember.
That sort of requirement for a major component today would be considered self-sabotage for most non-vr pc games.
Which is how a country like Iceland is able to make more than the US despite having a total population of 400k people: They have tons of access to renewable energy through geothermal vents.
Norway makes around twice as much as the US with their 5.5m people, again because of renewables.
Stop bringing up facts and figures, I have wordly experience!
-The average conservative voter
If Musk fully crosses Trump, I wouldn’t be surprised if suddenly starlink and spacex were labeled as threats to national security.
Most of the adults did tell me to do better, but they also kept repeating that I had it better than they did. Which was partially true at the time depending on who said it, but they still messed things up and blame me for not fixing their mistakes.
And what does that story have to do with generational pressure?
