>"we're saving money back we use less power"
Your reasoning here is very misguided. Power costs are nothing compared to the price of repairing and maintaining physical hardware that isn't manufactured anymore.

A couple weeks ago I was referred to an apprenticeship for a company that builds food processing machinery (very clean, very high degree of precision, very good pay). The guy in charge of apprentice intake managed to call me three or four times while I was working in the middle of the day with tools and heavy equipment, so I never heard him.
Then we played text message tag and I told him I'd be available at lunch or after 4:30. He asked "is 12 okay?" and then never called me.

Right, the money was just being sent to "people" with NULL birth dates, which means it was provably, literally being stolen.

>musk has been a right-wing internet troll
Elon Musk is a deadbeat dad who used to be able to fool people into thinking he was hip, and he wants nothing more than to LARP as Tony Stark consequence-free and morality-free. Thinking he is anything more or less than that is a sign that your brain has been replaced with a mainstream news radio antenna.

The wise sages of the net know 8chan ran things from at least 2014-2018, probably up until the THQ AMA fiasco.
I don't think Reddit has ever been more than a front for other content, as vokainen said, but I'm curious to know what you mean by "reddit youtube content" - is that like video essays about the N64 controller, or what?

Gaben is definitely one of the better CEOs by simple virtue of locking himself in his office and playing DotA2 all day as opposed to actively making things worse like so many C-suite executives are driven to do. Though we cannot forget nor forgive Valve as a whole for normalizing loot boxes through Team Fortress 2 and Counter Strike: Global Offensive.
Steam does also have a semi-obvious censorship bias due to how they've handled controversial games like Hatred, or unevenly enforced rules for anime/hentai games.

You'd need to establish a generation of CEOs who actually give a fuck about their companies first, but perhaps it could be done.

You know, the text and scribble-heavy layout actually caused me to parse this as two columns and it made the whole thing weirder.

Kind of bizarre to see the original image remade into something with more artistic value but which worsens the point.

I don't play cozy wholesome chungus games so I don't have any at my fingertips, but I think Stardew Valley is the prime example from recent years. It's meant to be relaxing, but because it doesn't want players to feel uncomfortable (or UNREPRESENTED!) there's no basis for the setting and it doesn't have much weight. If SV doesn't satisfy this requirement, then the literal scores of indie farming sims ripping off Animal Crossing/Harvest Moon that have released over the last four years will have plenty of meaningless stories and characters that don't dare to ask the player anything.
I played some of the original Harvest Moon games as a kid, and while they had simple stories about pastoral country life, they weren't mind-numbing.

Ah, that's something at least. I spent a couple years hearing about a painting my teacher had spent over a hundred hours on but never managed to finish.

I had almost the exact same thing happen to me in middle school, down to the leathery old woman who "loved art" but suspiciously never finished any painting.

One of my resolutions this year is to get serious about video game development and actually try crossing that line. Worries about becoming a starving artist don't apply when everyone is being starved and frozen out of everything.

This is genuinely something I've been struggling with for the last four or five years. I graduated in 2020 and spent 2 years living with my parents looking for work, which I found at a mindless data entry position only to get laid off 1.5 years later when the company - surprise! - slashed 25% of its workforce to reduce costs.
Meanwhile it seems like indie devs are having a lot of fun (those of them who aren't fags, at least) and they have roughly equivalent or better odds of making it big with some memetic idea.

Question for tech-savvy writers:
I write in a word processor and I want to upload my content as formatted text (HTML, Markdown) on various places. Currently the only ways I know to do this are exporting the file as HTML, but that includes a lot of boilerplate headers and usually breaks something.
I don’t like writing in raw text. Is there a way to keep the user-friendliness of a word processor but still convert to a more legible file format without breaking formatting?

I really don't have anything to say except that you're completely correct and no-one ever talks about it. My pubescent self didn't have a chance when I went on the internet to see if anyone else liked the blue fox girl and found shit like ychan.

One of the fun things about the modern internet and people's tendencies to broadcast every waking thought they have is that I can weed out people who would be a waste of time very quickly.
Some piece of video content is being discussed Commenter: "This guy is an art-hating AI lover. Don't listen to him." Me: "Hmm. Perhaps this commenter will have something else useful to say." One of his most recent tweets is getting mad at Square Enix for not putting gays in Final Fantasy XVI the right way.
Immediate closure of that branch of thought. In the old days it might have taken me months or years of casual encounters and conversation with this guy to realize he was just a slave to trends like everyone else.

The recent hubbub around the Godot Engine's choice of some fat, ugly, green-haired community manager and her(?) decision to treat the company's Twitter account like her personal blog has reminded me of a story back from 2017.
The attached image has the full story, but in short:
Marvel comics writers (women) take pictures of themselves getting milkshakes during their lunch break
They receive a total of 6 tweets that are vaguely disparaging (and one guy who said he "would totally bang" one of them)
Within a day, more news articles were written about the "harassment" these women faced from Twitter than was ever actually directed at them
The Tumblr crowd declares decisive strategic victory against "broflakes"
This is merely the latest version of that, but unlike Marvel's copyrighted vault of characters who will never be allowed to enter the public domain, Godot is an open source engine. People can fork it, do what they want with it, and take it in different directions (I've seen at least two forks specifically due to this drama, one serious and one as a shitpost).
The real, concrete thing lost here is the wealth of documentation and discussion in the former and current Godot Discord servers. The community manager (or maybe someone else; I don't care) has decided to lock both servers, making them impossible to join without explicit approval.

Every account must have a theme or gimmick of some kind - especially if you want to have no gimmick; that's the best and most distinct kind of gimmick. I chose Mad Stan from Batman Beyond because I respect his politics:
- There's information overload, man!
- The system is corrupt, dude!
- If you fuck with my dog I will blow up city hall.
Also, you have my permission to shoot me if I ever start whinging about being out-of-character or something equally theatrical.

From poking around in the interface here, it's already much more promising than any mainstream social network. I love how much control I have over who sees what I upload and how I can contact people.
I can CHANGE THE CSS?
To WHATEVER I WANT?
I can type in ITALICS?
