They literally did have to rush the ending. It's why the German guy looks like an old man in one of the last cinematics. There was supposed to be more with him going into the weird dimension and something about that caused him to age a lot.

I don't recall exactly what but I believe there was an final act that got cut.

I mean I have some pretty toxic family members as well, but at least a few of them are decent or innocent people. Pretty much everyone is going to have at least one family member that they care about even if most are shit heads.

I see it all over Lemmy unfortunately. I think it is because Lemmy is still relatively fringe and it is where lots of pro communism communities emerged. Normally, I find it actually pretty refreshing to see more left wing stuff but the pro China (or at least the kneejerk reactions to anything anti China) to be exhausting.

To be fair, I used to see a lot of it on Reddit as well. I think they are just a bigger proportion percentage wise on Lemmy so you see much more of it.

This is pretty crazy if true. I wonder if it has any connections to the alleged "ghost" CCP police stations that were reported around in Canada. I believe it was being claimed the stations were being used to bully Chinese people that were in Canada.

There is a logical reason why numbers like 12, 24, and 60 are used in a lot of systems. They are highly composite numbers so they have lots of prime factors which means there are lots more options to break them into whole groups.

That's pretty cool! The French actually had a decimal time system after the revolution, but they eventually abandoned it.

Or you could - oh, I don't know - read the article you are commenting on... it says he was a test operator and not a programmer.

Behind the Bastards just recently did a two part story about how The Dilbert Guy lost his mind. It's a great podcast and goes through the whole history of him falling hard for Trump in recent years. Part of it seems to come from a very traumatic health issue where he almost lost his ability to speak. It certainly doesn't absolve him but it kind of explains what pushed him over the edge.

Here's the first part if anyone is interested:

For sure, the person in that video (Shays Moss) is one of people mentioned in the article who is suing Giuliani.

I think the infinite growth part is a big part of the problem: "Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell"
