The Chinese version feels higher budget, but is unwatchable. Seems like the show runner told the writers "Anything science-y we explain 3 times, mandatory." Heard them the first time? Too bad, get ready to hear the same 3-minute explanation again, now with more 'I've heard of math, but never actually done it' energy.

But I want my own content bubble organized antithetical to my convenience and I want it now.

They're most vulnerable and marginalized community. How dare you refuse to kiss their boots.

The DNC needs to be risking jail like their opposition in order to be effective. Their GOP counter parts showed how effective that could be and have doubled down on it.

Trying to be strong in the face of adversity requires real risk of consequences. Everything the DNC does is so meticulously calculated to minimize risk all they have is posturing. Speed of execution beats the best planned but half implemented strategies.

Fail faster, take more risk, fucking act like lives are on the line and don't worry about which lobbyist isn't going to call you back after you inadvertently nuke their shit.

I feel this. That Valve guy talking about 'Nvidia you're doing lighting wrong' because Nvidia adopted the same logarithmic formula for gamma as photography. Like holy shit I'm sorry Carmack got this wrong, but fr get your shit together Valve. Y'all didn't just invent how the world models light.

I wish it was hypothetical. Two slightly awkward conversations prompted this.

Touché...is also the name of a fetish community.

 

Anytime I mention it to people IRL they look uncomfortable before I explain it's the federated universe of distributed social platforms.

That moment of 😬 is due to the name Fediverse sounding like 'Fetiverse.' These people aren't sex obsessed. Most are tech professionals who were on Fark, SA, Digg...etc.

How do y'all navigate this homonymous quirk?
