I'm sorry for the level of discourse I'm about to engage in, but Zuckerberg knows Jiujitsu, I think if Musk had any actual training in any skillful way of fighting we would've seen it - the dude probably knows Zuckerberg knows jiujitsu, maybe he was just hoping that he would ignore the challenge? lmao

[Musk] has talked about being in “real hard-core street fights"

dude's gonna break his back if he doesnt back out last minute

I mean idk shit she says just sound like such elaborate troll-shit, it sounds like someone's having fun with it.

you're thinking of EMPRESS
Definitely presented as out of spite

Some people speculate that this is the cover-up persona to hide that they're actually a team with people who have worked on Denuvo themselves, and it certainly sounds more believable than this single woman managing to crack Denuvo in 14 days when every other cracker still in the business can't.
(but also some people are truly insane who knows)

this video's journalists even are like "dude this is incredibly scuffed", those scientists with them should be considered heroes in some sense

I really like Trilium Notes as a Joplin/Obsidian alternative!
I don't know if this really is as harmful an enshiftification as we've come to expect from other projects, it mainly seems to be allowing you to have a "patreon" or "gumroad" type project tied to your actual community. There's an argument that the centralization is harmful in the long run when everything goes belly-up but this move in a vacuum seems like a logical next step for Discord itself

Well I think it's kinda hard to imagine a free service that doesn't do either data collection or advertising or both (read: you are the product), with advertising it makes sense through being a more openly a field that has a lot of money circulating around it

The only other viable model I can personally think of is subscriptions, I find it hard to imagine that only forcing big corporations to pay to use your service, or that having it be donationbased would work with the amount of manpower and serverspace these products from within Silicon Valley typically host where they need millions maybe billions every month until they stop existing

Advertisers are likely to be much more willing to bank their ad dollars with Zuckerberg than smaller rivals.

I'm fine with any most thing that shows you cannot enable harm-to-discourse as much as Musk has. I would sooner them come to Zuckerberg than crawling back to Twitter because it didn't have an alternative. Twitter is very much a walking corpse right now, but something else coming along to snatch the could-be advertisers secure that it can stay in its fucking pit. (unless various sus governments still somehow see use in keeping it propped up)

Well they did essentially just type it but I agree with the sentiment

Patlabor, specifically "Patlabor ON TELEVISION" and "Patlabor New Files" (sometimes called New OVA) are takes place in a very comfy near-future environment and is about a group of policemembers who are under the division for dealing with any mech incidents, meaning giant robot fights will happen in a very down-to-earth setting

I also recommend the movies if you enjoy the GITS movie as it's the same director and he likes exploring a various amount of social commentary, from criticism of institutional inefficiency to existential reflections, (just dont watch the 3rd movie, it has nothing to do with anyone who made the original Patlabor)

There's also the original Patlabor OVA, but I personally didn't enjoy that nearly as much as the tv anime, and some of the characters act a little different, so it might be jarring if you watch that before the tv anime despite it being chronologically made first

While the 1999 version has the old aesthetic that you say you like, I would recommend the 2011 version due to a lot of times just presenting individual scenes so well, the team really came together to make dramatic when it counted, and it also goes further into one of the best arcs of HxH
Nippon Animation did 1999, while MADHOUSE did 2011 if that says anything to you
