Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Swen Vincke says fan mods 'shouldn't be treated like commercial ventures that infringe on your property' just hours before Wizards of the Coast retracts its BG3 Stardew mod takedownEnglish10·14 days agoIn fact, I’d wager that they accomplish the opposite of what they claim. How many people see their reaction to mods, and decide “nah I’m not buying anything from them”
I know I do that. I’m sure others do too. So now rather than buying the game to mod, I’m avoiding anything from the company for quite some time.
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•the timeline is fucked ruleEnglish30·17 days agoI have been filling out applications recently and one place wanted me to download a mobile app that would record camera and microphone stuff while I filled out the application
Another company wanted me to record responses on a Webcam.
Whatever the fuck I feel like, damn.

Hey, you.
YEAH YOU! WITH THE FACE ON YOUR HEAD!
YOU are a FULLY FLEDGED HUMAN BEING with VALID FEELINGS and DIFFICULTIES!
YOU are BEAUTIFUL and HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF GREAT STRENGTH whether you REALIZE IT OR NOT
YOU can FACE THE DAY ahead and NOBODY CAN STOP YOU unless you LET THEM
If someone wants to HATE YOU FOR EXISTING, then you have to EXIST AS HARD AS POSSIBLE because they aren’t going to change, but YOU DON’T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT PETTY SHITHEADS
GO GET EM, TIGER
That place is a monument to mankind’s arrogance.
The cave diver comments were what did it for me.
I mean, back then I was all about being against the popular thing, so I already was just tired of seeing his name in headlines. But after that I kinda went “oh so he really IS a piece of shit, that’s some middle school level insults.”
It was all downhill from there. The more you learned about him, the more you realize he’s a garbage human who doesn’t deserve to breathe air, let alone be in charge of anything.
Every comment on Twitter just screams" look at me, look at how cool I am please like me I’m so
lonelyawesome"Most people were just giving him passes left and right because he bought tesla and spacex and managed to convince people he was in charge from the start and lead r&d. Scratching the surface even slightly showed none of that was true, but a lot of people didn’t bother.
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Europe@feddit.org•Sharp Decline in EU's Natural Gas Consumption, New Data ShowsEnglish8·23 days agowe’re very far from that.
As usual, the only thing keeping humanity back is… Humanity.
Petty differences and ancient squabbles that turn deadly over the years has turned humanity into crabs scuttling around a bucket.
We have the capability to feed, house, and clothe everyone on the planet. We have the capability of electrifying every industry on earth.
The only things keeping us from doing so are “it’s expensive” or “the logistics are too complex”
All of which sounds to me like children whining “it’s too haaaaaard” when told to clean their room.
By no means am I saying you are wrong, we are very far from all that. It’s just our own fault.

Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Europe@feddit.org•A Russian linked ship was spotted by Irish military dropping its anchor near an undersea cableEnglish5·25 days agoThe original comment was removed but I’m guessing the poster was trying to say the US is some scheming puppeteer of foreign countries to make this happen?
LMAO I could have believed that around 2005.
You could have even swung that convincingly in 2010.
This administration wouldn’t know what a puppet IS without the hand shoved up their asses drawing some pictures for them. They are the puppets. Half of them have an education in name only, their diplomas and degrees were paid for by status or money. Their positions secured through ass kissing and the ability to say “yes master whatever you wish”
You are spot on with your assessment of the military industrial complex. In my youth I enlisted, and it’s an entirely different beast from the inside. Simultaneously more and less coordinated than you thought, just in different areas. Day-to-day sure things might get fucked up, a clerical error makes comical goofs and endless maintenance delays… But once “war were declared” then I have never seen anything that moves in coordination more smoothly except literal machines.
Even with a group of idiots at the wheel, they aren’t the ones with boots on the ground. They aren’t the ones coordinating the logistics. If they decided to go to war, I would HOPE enough of the military would refuse to cooperate that any efforts fail before they get off the ground. I would have absolutely gone AWOL if the administration declared war on an EU nation. Not only do I have friends there, I know enough about them to know if we’re fighting, they aren’t the ones who started it.
I can only hope that the people in the military now would just decline any orders to invade a foreign country based on trade bullshit from an orange blob.
All that said, if they DID decide to start shit, I fully believe the EU is capable of defending its home from invasion, if not just blitzkrieg-era bombardment.
You could stop the armies, but not the navies.
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Europe@feddit.org•A Russian linked ship was spotted by Irish military dropping its anchor near an undersea cableEnglish181·25 days agoYes, but since the offending country 1: has nuclear weapons and B- keeps saying “whoopsie didn’t mean to pinky promise” everyone just throws up their hands and says “well they claim it was an accident so just bump the sanctions 2% and call it a day” rather than the literal acts of war that they would be in any other context.
It’s like watching what’s happened in the US happen on a global scale.
We all know things are being smashed on purpose with the intention of making life difficult for other people, yet nobody is doing a goddamn thing to stop it.
And just like in the US, I’m sure there are plenty who would absolutely love to row out and try to stop it themselves but a large ship is just gonna steamroll a small one. I would love to row out and start some shit with the ships cutting cables. But by myself, I’m getting crushed without a second thought, and tons of people will watch on and go “well what did they expect all by themselves they should have gone out in force as a group if they wanted to really put a stop to it. Now I gotta go post a Facebook update saying I stand in solidarity with the cable”
I’ll let the readers sort out this metaphor.
First mistake: needing to use stairs to get to the bathroom
That’s too far in case of an emergency. Sometimes shit happens, and you get little to no warning with certain disorders.
Second mistake: actually that’s it. Just stairs. They suck when you wake up a 3am and need to pee and now you need light so you don’t trip and fall.
I like my bathroom close and stair-free.

Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says he was being a 'bit sarcastic' when he promised to end Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hoursEnglish7·1 month agoWhy do we need to wait to know that violence against fascists is the appropriate response?
This sort of thinking makes me “sound like a teenager” because I’m “trying to be Edgy”
Lol no, anyone who genuinely thinks violence will not be needed because we will simply vote soon and it’ll all be over is either sticking their head in the sand, naive as fuck, or their lifestyle depends on things continuing as they are and stand to benefit from it.
Like holy shit go to the 1800s and tell all the slaves if they want real change they need to keep their heads down and quietly protest in the back where nobody can see them. Similar vibes.

If you honestly think this isn’t giving them traffic, you’re ignorant or naive.
