Healthy optimism
I’m either missing context, or the joke is going over my head
Not irrational. The “detail” in this style of comic is visual clutter that makes it actually significantly harder to see what’s in the panel right away
Protests are very good at causing civil unrest, damaging public property, making other peoples days worse, and swaying their view further away from your cause
If any of those are your goal, they can be quite effective
To increase humanities control over its environment. The form that takes is a secondary concern
Let’s be real here, it’s the second one
For all intents and purposes it was free word
I haven’t really used word in over half a decade since TeX beats it in every conceivable way.
Wordpad was useful in the sparse few cases where I was forced to open a .doc or .docx and couldn’t be arsed to upload the file to Google docs
I guess it will be missed for that
Yes it does, his Dracula dad being random other things is the central premise of this series
Not everything that isn’t ublock is automatically bad. Especially if you just want an adblocker and not also all the other stuff it comes with
I love the irony that people nuke your comment
Yup, calling bs on the article, since a pc is both cheaper and easier than a phone. Besides, if you know how to navigate a window and type into a textbox (both required for YouTube) you know how to write a digital form
This article is made up drama
You mean like how you fully purchased a premium account?
I wonder why there are no laws against eforced, unilateral contract adjustments like this. Especially considering “no ads” was an explicit part of the original purchase
You’re right that I inverted it numerically
Though, that’s a communication thing. White people are a minority worldwide but never referred to as such. I used the standard way to refer to the different races even though that is statistically incorrect in the hope of it being more directly obvious what I meant
He means Apartheid
That one went so far that south Africa is the only country to voluntarily unilateraly give up its nuclear arsenal when a minority risked getting to power
Toomba 2: The evil swine return is a piece of nostalgia I can never share
If you think 15 bucks for actual additional content is a microtransactions than you need to read up on the definition
I’d rather have subscription model + frequent dlc + ads in game the microtransactions
Not that I would accept that combo either, but unlike microtransactions, it wouldn’t literally ruin lives
Yeah, but it’s a sustainable model that allows for longtime development and product lifetime. It’s also completely voluntary since base + utopia + synthetic dawn are 85% of all worthwhile content on their own
Like, microtransactions are garbage, but the industry has shifted to a point where you’re out if you don’t have a long term payment model. The paradox model at least puts a cap on what the whales can pay, and actually gives them more content in return.
It’s the least bad model out there. At least for companies too big to pull a factorio/terraria
I feel the opposite. Still all but one opinion gets drowned out. It’s just that now the opinion that survives is the one that screams the loudest rather than the mainstream one
Plagiarism is a bad thing
Including plagiarising the dictionary
