The AI face weirdly looks like the face of the security guard who likes big breasts from Nathan for You. Except Randy’s cigar is still hovering there.

If they had access to real books, they might learn the difference between then and than!

You’re probably more senior than this dev.

This is the normie view, they just can’t be bothered doing anything about it

A theologian I spoke to pointed out that even Martin Luther didn’t revert the changes Constantine wrought, like the holy day being on the sabbath instead of Sunday to commemorate Easter every week. I guess roughly 1200 years of habits are hard to break, when Constantine only had a few hundred years to contend with, and there were so many sects of a very different Christianity even then (Nestorians, Syriacs, Copts etc).

Pardon my ignorance - what’s ‘play with my nuts’ a reference to for Carter, aside from his gonads?

But David Spade looks like him. I know what you mean about Martin Short’s vivacity though, he’d be a fine Wonka, whose idea was it to cast Chalamet

Whoa, really? Because of the twin towers?

Extinction Rebellion is just more noise, to make its supporters feel like they’re doing something while they’re in fact entirely counterproductive. Similar to PETA. There are better organisations to support, who are working hard on these important causes.

They can be pretty funny though. I saw one that said “LEPROSY IS COMPLETLY CURRBAL” and underneath there was a bit of space left so they drew a crude map of the T-junction nearby with names of where each street goes.

There’s still one advertising banner there that’s all spangled

I think you’ll find it’s the children who are wrong

I repeat, hatless

It’s the fediverse, and you’re confusing fascism and chauvinism.

But we’d certainly want to brand their taint for doing this to us

All Japanese tech and adjacent companies are so extremely corporatised. Panasonic, Toshiba, Fuji, Mitsubishi etc. They protect their profits through proprietary connectors and firmware, and the overworked Japanese populace puts up with it over there. Where it’s for an international market, that’s made clear by the fact that there’s almost never a Japanese language option (see: games and other media that protects the corporations’ IP for Japanese voice actors). Living there I was always disturbed by how the government let this happen and there was no social movement to do anything about it. The zaibatsu are still in control of the country, of course.

Occupational hazard. Doesn’t mean said engineer isn’t owed compensation though. On the contrary.
