I mean isn’t “the future is for everyone” kind of a major theme in Star Trek?

With Ellison in control, we might finally get that all-white, all-male Starfleet that non-fans have been begging for
- Comment on If "James Bond" is a codename, would a hypothetical female operative filling the same role receive the same codename? 1 week ago:
Just want to say that I think they handled the Nomi thing very well in the movie. They were VERY aware of what the audience reaction would be and played into it. They could have pandered a couple different ways and chose not to
- Comment on If I can only find an artist on streaming platforms and no other search hits, does that most likely mean it's an AI generated artist? 1 week ago:
This does seem AI generated, yeah
- Comment on When kids come trick-or-treating, what happens if I choose trick? 1 week ago:
Halloween is huge in the suburbs, not so much in the city. I lived in the city for almost 20 years and my doorbell never rang once on Halloween. People don’t even really decorate.
The threat of a trick is just for fun, though. If someone answered the door, they are giving you candy. If they don’t, oh well! To the next house! Pranks like throwing toilet paper or egging (way less common) was for friends, enemies, and random houses. And that was teenagers doing it, not trick or treaters.
I’m back in the suburbs this year and am really looking forward to it starting in 2 hours. I have a ton of candy and homemade dog treats! I’m gonna ask them what their trick would be…maybe I’ll come back and share some of the funny ones.
- Comment on Anon doesn't like the doors 1 week ago:
I definitely agree (RIP Nujabes)
More of a joke about someone calling “anime soundtracks” a genre because they’re musically uncultured. I don’t even like The Doors lol
- Comment on Anon doesn't like the doors 1 week ago:
At this point I’m leaning toward it being an LLM
- Comment on Anon doesn't like the doors 1 week ago:
I feel like they’d say their favorite genre is “anime soundtracks”
- Comment on Happy American import day 1 week ago:
I think the internet broke that possibility. Things and ideas don’t spread “naturally” anymore.
- Comment on Is it wrong that I want one? 1 week ago:
It’s wrong for you to want a funny thing, yes.

Just want to say I appreciate you including a source. That’s some good posting etiquette.

- Comment on 'Valve does not get anywhere near enough criticism': DayZ creator Dean Hall says the 'gambling mechanics' of Valve's monetization strategy 'have absolutely no place' in videogames 2 weeks ago:
You have a point but the cost of Paradox DLCs FAR exceeds the development time most of the time. You really have to do your research before buying anything

If there was a toilet right there, do you think they would still choose the wall?
Have you ever been around drunk tourists before? The answer is yes
- Comment on Velma can't math. 2 weeks ago:
One of the worst parts of it is that Scooby Doo has had tons of successful series and they’ve all been pretty good. Yet they somehow managed to fuck this up despite it being an incredibly simple formula for a show.
- Comment on Why are people using the "þ" character? 2 weeks ago:
I agree there’s definitely excessive hatred toward it, it’s just hard for me to see it as anything other than deliberately pushing people’s buttons. It does not accomplish their stated goal, it’s just annoying to read.
I was going to compare it someone mumbling so “the hidden microphones can’t understand” but even that has some merit.
Now I feel like it sounds like I’ve got some vendetta against them…I don’t mean it that way. I’m just ADHD overexplaining.
- Comment on Why are people using the "þ" character? 2 weeks ago:
Nahh, l33t was a subculture thing and it was popular within its community. Using it on a general forum (like Lemmy) would get you more shit than this guy’s getting. Probably some slurs thrown your way, too.
They are the one being antagonistic here by using a “style” they know annoys most people.
I think they just get off to farming the downvotes.
- Comment on Why are people using the "þ" character? 2 weeks ago:
I’m not into antagonizing him for it but I am blunt about it. That user has been made aware that it makes their comments harder to read for users AND that it’s not poisoning AI but they do it anyway.
It’s not a big problem but I’m not gonna pretend like it’s a neutral endeavor when the only thing it does is diminish other users’ experience

This is the answer. If you flick as much water off your hands as possible into the sink first, it takes like 10 seconds

I played this game last year and enjoyed it. Might have to give it another spin
- Comment on Not promoting hate speech but what happened to all the slights/slurs/vulgarity from like the 20s and 40s. There were so many. Now it seems well I can only think of three? 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t realize nigrig was (really fuckin obviously) racist until way late in life because the people I heard use it weren’t outwardly racist and pronounced it like “ne-grigged”
- Comment on No, commuters of Bus Bound's Steam Next Fest demo, I will not stop publicly transporting you to the scene of accidents 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, I didn’t have any issues with them until recently when every other outlet started copying it and they seemingly cranked it to 11 in response. They’d work great as taglines but I prefer descriptive titles so I don’t have to “figure out” the topic. Feels antithetical to the purpose of a headline
- Comment on No, commuters of Bus Bound's Steam Next Fest demo, I will not stop publicly transporting you to the scene of accidents 4 weeks ago:
I wish they DID trademark it so half the gaming news websites didn’t follow suit
It feels very…corporate. Forced casual

Why can’t RPS write a normal headline for once

I would say that any deaf-from-birth person who ever regularly interacted with hearing people would know they sound a certain way
- Comment on Trump Classifies “Anti-Capitalism” as a Political Pre-Crime 4 weeks ago:
My friend and I have been saying for years that we don’t wish death upon him, we wish utter humiliation. We want him to trip and shit himself while he’s walking on stage in full view of the cameras and audience.
On his death bed, he will believe he’s dying with dignity. But if he rips his Depends on stage, he’s gonna lose his mind.

- Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? 5 weeks ago:
Whole lot of really serious replies but I think it’d be better to spin your original statement as a joke/exaggeration/misinterpretation"
“I love my job but let’s be real - if I didn’t have bills to pay, I’d be chilling on a beach instead!”
“I love working here - but my role specifically. I’m very happy in my position and don’t see myself as CEO one day or anything.”
