  • Yeah, they’ll keep harping on about “once in a generation” as if multiple loads of crap hadn’t hit the fan. Brexit of course being the big one, but Labour following up the Tories with more austerity and generally conservative governance also won’t help.

    The upcoming (Scottish) election cycle will probably matter a lot for indy and seeing how Scotland reacts to Labour. The SNP did get hit by a lot of scandals so things might get shaken up a bit. I wonder how many will put another referendum as one of their main points.


  • Oh, the journalists wrote and article that you clicked on and shared, and maybe even commented on on their website? And it points out a particularly problematic part of an otherwise pretty good game?

    Fantastic, they did their job well.

    I enjoyed playing the game but that achievement and “jennerising” really did leave a sour taste in my mouth (the latter is a drug effect that temporarily changes your body type). Though I found “tropic thunder” giving you dark skin somewhat amusing. Humour is subjective, and I could honestly accept all of these being just a tad too far to be funny anymore, in which case I’d rather the game was more friendly to everyone (and it’s better for its success too).

    To have some fun though at your expense; the funnily appropriate way you mistyped a sentence:

    try to cancel a game just because an achievement

    I assume you missed the word “of” but it lets me ask: just because an achievement is what? Come on, say it.

    All that aside:

    I’m surprised someone on the fediverse is using “social activist” as a pejorative though tbh. Moving away from centralised social media is similarly a way to speak out against social issues you believe in.

    I disagree. All our current storage methods still degrade, not to mention they almost all rely on technology to be read.

    If nothing happens, sure. We can keep things preserved, know how to access the data from them, make copies as needed, etc., but that would’ve applied to the Library of Alexandria.

    Most, if not all (afaik) MySpace profiles are gone. We can archive all of Facebook and Instagram, but thousands of years is a long time to not have accidents, mistakes, war or even natural degradation destroy some or all of the data carriers.
