Yeah for sure. But also, most consumers hate integrated AI - apple is a recent example. LLMs are very useful technology, but they’re being sold as a way to replace workers - and thats why every corporation is racing toward them.

“Want” =/= everybody wants.

In this case it = “capitalists seek profit at the expense of everyone & everything else”

Superman has essentially nothing to lose. He can’t be harmed directly. Luigi made a significant personal sacrifice to send a message - allegedly

My car is worth negative money. I could become a professional parking ticket getter.

Religious people, on the whole, have a fundamentally illogical and deeply problematic view of the most basic facts about our metaphysical reality, morality, and history. Even if they don’t use their religious views to justify deeply immoral behaviors, etc. Gotta have some sort of common ground to connect with a person.

It is a good metaphor, just maybe not for the reasons he thinks

That is true. I liked the lesbianism. It was based of them to make korra gay and I thought they were very cute together for being lib trash. Critical support.

Maybe not mooost controversial, but the legend of korra is not only worse than ATLA, but it is pretty much garbage. Lib garbage, too.

Buttery males

That mostly checks out for me after doing BJJ for a couple years. In much better shape, but have some aches and pains from minor injuries sustained during training.

Prince rapes kids and doesn’t get invited to pre-Christmas lunch? Actions have consequences, your majesty. British justice served.

Nah he wanted the turkey because it is clever and resourceful. The bald eagle is a scavenger and not particularly clever. Turkeys are smart.

That’s essentially the case. His changes, other than the austerity related ones, were intended to make Argentinian goods more competitive (cheaper) globally while actively hurting the purchasing power of Argentinians. If it “works,” it’ll mean inflation slows, and they hope the business profits will trickle down while businesses capture the government, income inequality increases, and businesses and billionaires accumulate more of Argentina’s wealth.

How badly is your body fucked up after however long you’ve been fighting/training?

I’m not sure if diversity is Lemmy’s strong suit (yet - simply because being popular is not its strong suit), but acceptance/tolerance/being generally less shit than reddit definitely is. One main benefit of the fediverse is you can always block instances. So pick an instance you like that is welcoming, without trolls, and is defederated from instances you don’t want, then you’re good to go. Not that brigading/trolling can’t happen, but it’s harder to do.

I said what’s based-er than bein based?

Based

After reading the wikipedia summary of Wicked the musical, it seems like the movie followed the plot pretty much exactly - which is where all of its problems come from, IMO. The singing was great. Ariana Grande absolutely killed it. Great performances by Elpheba and the hot dude. Set design and costuming, great. But the story is absolute trash. The glowing reviews from critics don’t seem to take this into account…

I see how they wanted to stay faithful to the original - they’d have gotten major blowback from fans. But so much of the plot is completely uninspired, thin, or even nonsensical. The 1st and 2nd acts were pretty solid, but no spoilers, the plotline with the animals, basically the entire 3rd and 4th acts, all of the stuff with Jeff Glodblum and all of Elpheba’s interractions with him and the lady from EEAAO were rushed and wafer-thin plotwise. I feel like they try to cover that fact up by bombarding the viewer with visuals, racing to major plot points, and leaning on the strength of the performances - sort of gish galloping their way past the plot holes. It felt like the macro pacing was pretty much bang-on with major events happening at a satisfying cadence, but pacing between each plot point - getting from a to b within an act - was often rushed without adequate character development to support their actions/interractions with other characters.

“About tree fiddy”

But that scenario definitely does not meet the legal definition of a threat. It’s just a statement of opinion based on current events - she did not threaten anyone necessarily
