Maybe not, but it's far more likely than traveling faster than light to other star systems.

I was presented to this idea of a virtual evolution via Accelerando, and it stuck to me ever since because of how much sense it makes. As far as we can tell, uploading our consciousness to a spaceship the size of a USB drive and slinging ourselves as vlose as we can to the speed of light is the only realistic way we have to travel the stars ourselves.

I didn't do the research for this shitpost since I think generational divisions are stupid and arbitrary (and more often than not based on the USA, which doesn't apply for 99% of the world).

Those memes look even worse now when you realize 90% of them were just misogyny.

 

Same people: "Amogus"

It's definitely a good idea. The best thing about here is that we can talk with sane people, even if just a bit.

Overall I only use corporate social media for niche interests that aren't big enough on lemmy yet. Politics is just a waste of time. Even if you convince someone to stop being a complete ghoul, the algorithms will make sure they return to their earlier opinions.

I'm so glad I switched a few months ago and don't have to deal with Microsoft's shit anymore

I did play and enjoy Ostalgie (even learned a bit of history in the process), but they are mostly political simulators, you can't really kick the US in the balls, just resist and thrive.

 

Specially if it doesn't use imperialist language to contextualize my communist actions :)

I did take a look into the Cold War mod for HoI IV but the reactionary language in every focus and events for the DPRK is tiring after a while.

I'm honestly impressed they thought the changes would be well received. Aren't those communities the nost active in the site?

Traveling for work so mostly just Slay the spire. Up to ascension 5 now.

Not really looking forward to TGA, specially since I don't really care for AAA games. I'll just watch any interesting trailers after, the show itself is unwatchable.

Nah I'm good. Every single time I see the ghouliest take is a .worlder (although recently lemmy.ca users have been upping their competition for trash takes)

Once again russia is doing the cleaning

 

I don't care how much "real" power they have. If you actually believe in a meritocracy how can you defend someone getting a job because of their lineage, attending real political events and ceremonies and influencing policies that way? And let's not forget that in many cases, they ACTUALLY have institutional powers they just don't use because they don't have to, the institutions serve their interests all the same.

Sorry for the pointless rant. It just happens way too often.

 

Maybe the target is the gas pipeline mentioned in the article?

 

If you disagree you are a russian bot

 

Although I'm 100% sure everyone understood something different from Lain, it was a very interesting trip lol.

 

I'm not sure if it will actually mean anything, but I wasn't actually expecting to see a verdict.

 

Has your average commonplace unchallenged ideas of China, but is overall a great video.

 

It's as if getting an advantage because of money instead of merit and effort is unfair. Such a wild idea could only really work on videogames haha.
