Bought out?

Disco Elysium is a paracosm. It was stolen using loopholes and intellectual property law.

The creators, of whom this world is a dynamic living construct emergent from their minds are effectively banned from expressing any of the existing details all because one asshat obtained the rights to its entirety and legally barred them from doing so.

People have suggested they move on to make something else, surely they have the creative talent, but very few people understand the Tolkien levels of initial work and the psychological connection of a creator that was already invested into Elysium.

Zelensky, dissed his appearance in an official setting proceeded to steal his looks.

High school bitch attitude.

Honestly a potential vulnerability in signal sounds like bigger news to me than this administrations war planning fuckup.

Its not like this leak is going to cause any accountability.

You’re not doing it on purpose but your comment does highlight the ease people dismiss the social experience of hidden disability.

• Oh your that (weird) person always wearing gloves.

• Why are you so sensitive about your gloves?, just take em off.

• Someone tried to rip off her gloves the other day and they are in the hospital now.

Comments in this style are more common for teens but the sense of not belonging even if for something at first glance mundane lasts well into adulthood.

This is why i prefer anarchism

You got paired up with a vegetable as teammate?

As a parent its funny to me and required zero explanation.

Many comics of this series mirror stuff from my own life in an exaggerated way but i know they would have fallen flat a decade ago.

Is it ripe for harvest time yet?

Or worse, real digital art of living people being stolen, watermarked, and sold for pure profit.

For new users the main question is not what operating system but what window manager as that is what shapes day to day user interaction. KDE plasma is a solid choice.

Installing it on a separate drive should be no problem. Just select the correct drive during install.

I use F10 to get to the boot menu on drive and select the drive it needs to boot from there. I have used it once in the last year and although it required many updates its still working.

Most of these things have a free tier. I would be hardly suprised if roblox doesn’t.

As someone who does know a lot about the industry i simply cannot recommend roblox. However i can recommend the following:

Make an account tougher with your daughter and let her play in the living room, streamed to the tv if you can and let her guide you trough what this game is and what she finds fun about it.

Bonding aside there is a good chance that the free tier is all she needed and the real fun is connecting multiplayer with her real life friends.

Sooner or later you will face some examples of the traps and dangers, but those are generally the same ones that exist everywhere online, at which point you can let your daughter explain the supposed purpose of em while directly complimenting it with your parental insight. This helps you set and explain boundaries in relation to the game and helps build resilience to the inherent risks of the digital age.

Amen on preventing the normalization of fascism and on trying to split the unthinking mass the same as the Nazi intellectual.

But i am a bit confused about the argument here. I believe you are in favor of calling for violence against fascism in a wider sense. And therefor interpret ops message in the same way.

I am in a somewhat mirrored perspective where i feel strong about pacifism and freedom of speech. Words can hurt but to me can be never be labeled as violent, so i read op as valid but colorful expression. They also themselves express that they do not see their own message as a call to violence.

Fascism is naturally abhorrent, but how does threatening fascist expression show that abhorrence to those trapped within? If our threat is general and op meant indeed a call to violence against all including non violent fascist express then we do the opposite of splitting those groups and actually mostly the unthinking will be targeted. Then Violence calls for more violence and only those rich enough to fly away will be unharmed.

In an academic sense i agree with you that this is how fascism is and that there is logic to it they wont want to pursue a scenario where they do not have the hierarchical upper hand in a violent clash.

However i doubt this is how most modern fascists are and how its ideology spreads. I am willing to bet that the vast majority of Americans neo nazis don’t even know who Mussolini is. The “leopards ate my face” phenomenon is a result of this. So is the “local known immigrant good, stranger immigrant bad” They are essentially brainwashed into the ideology of hate without truly understanding what it is about. They are equally brainwashed to distance themselves or look away from the people around them that do commit violence.

When asked in the streets supporters of trumps deportation plans expressed its only natural that said thing was done in a humane and ethical way and they trust those that execute such plan achieve this. When they do witness violence from their side they believe the victim must have deserved it in some horrible way. Only a small minority understands and expresses a desire to kill just because of ethnicity.

To me the entire war rhetoric between political left vs right is a function of the greater fascist ideal. While we are occupied fighting fascist appearing neighbors, those in power with the money and means to instruct real systematic oppression, censorship and in control of the state monopoly on n violence are not being stopped.

Thats is in all honesty not how i read ops message though.

They want to make the dynamic where the organizers of ethnic cleaning are held accountable a set tradition. And the only names in context are Mussolini and Hitler.

The crux of this argument may be what we understand as an active Nazi.

To me Musk is an active Nazi, he speaks their ideology and caters to others that also do and employed its symbolism. But there is no proof that he is or was involved in organizing genocide.

So i don’t think op is saying Musk deserves death (yet).

I also see many people who are openly racist and identify as Nazis. Spread hate. But don’t actually engage in violence. Many of these are indoctrinated or born in such culture. I don’t think they are a target for OP either.

I agree that some of these can decide to stop. which bring me to my truer understanding that these most of these people can learn to be better. Which is exactly my argument not to punish them with violence.

But the organizers who set the machines of death in motion cannot be redeemed this way. Hitler if he was alive can not be pardoned and given acces to the public world. We as a society must come to a consensus what to do with criminals like that.

Spending the remainder of their life in a maximum oppressive system with zero freedom is not a perfect solution. Neither is putting them to death. Both of these options can be supported with ethical arguments, there is no objective winner. Till we find ethical argument for an options that is objectively superior to both ,showing support in favor of the existing solutions is fair and has nothing to do with threatening someone.

I agree the sentiment of a public hanging doesn’t help to see it that way, but language is by default colors to carry emotional value and not only literal value.

I feel similar to “eat the rich” getting banned. No one who states that is seriously advocating for cannibalism.

Yeah that seems to check out.

Wikipedia states he is imprisoned for life for the crime of genocide.

That outcome personally has my preference but to bring it to the matter at hand.

Op basically suggest that rather then incarceration for life they should be given the death penalty.

I cant see such thing as a threat. Because in so many “modern” places its the status quo. Definitely not as a offending expression to be banned.

Til the day we as a species evolve to a post death penalty world without state monopoly on violence such discussion are as normal as humanity itself.

Can you name a single person who is threatened by a democratically decided punishment for organizing genocide.

At worst its a statement in support of using systematic violence as a punishment for crimes against humanity. But discussion isn’t a threat.

Saying: “Everyone who think x, must be killed” is a threat to violence.

Hitler did not just think racist things. He was not only expressing himself or identifying as a Nazi. He was unmistakable guilty of organizing a genocide.

There are many self identifying nazis today but there is no demographic of people who belong to the specific group that fits actual Hitler and actual mussolini.

I can think of a handful alive today that are heading that way but even if those empires broke down tomorow they would not have committed enough evil to qualify.

Cars are a status symbol. He hasn’t forgotten alternatives exists he just despises their existence because they are beneath him.

To the rich any service of society that is not catered exclusively to to the rich is a disgrace and a threat to their ego.

Scohol sounds a lot cooler tbh.

Me: wondering where the sword went and thinking its about link being in rainbow one hit invincible mode.
