Even so, academics is such a niche and marginal problem compared to, like, anything else that capitalism fucks up.
Scientists are still doing good things all the time under capitalism. Environmental sciences criticize problems that capitalists are loath to address all the time, but also apparently capitalism funded their research for a century.
This post is just more populist tanky agitprop to make dumb people angry and distrust institutions and science whenever it tells them something they don’t like.

I haven’t played this so take my 2 cents with a pinch of mixed metaphor.
My assumption for this game was that DLC would be new copy pasted outposts, weapons, etc. That’s the way a lot of procedural games go. It’s not bad really, you take a good core game and pump it full of new set pieces and toys til hell freezes over.

I know how you feel. I spent a week failing to learn about compressors and shit before stumbling onto some random comment mentioning it.

Easyeffects pipewire works fine with Linux. The dev has dynamic compression presets for the program on his git.

Well that answers my question about whether today’s archeologists would have done the same thing: nope.

I think for 4chan any post that doesn’t result in you getting called a slur is considered a +1

While I’ll agree the internet has been overrun by shortform shit, calling internet memes uncreative is such a boomer-ass take. This guy is just nostalgia baiting for points.

A quick google shows Romans had a few words for prostitute, including meretrix, so it seems likely.

I doubt anyone would google this, if I was going to it would be to find online topics that are tangential. At that point all bets are off tbh, obviously the range of websites related to the search is as wide as the original example shows.
- Comment on Microsoft stole my Chrome tabs, and it wants yours, too 5 months ago:
That’s hilarious. Why would you use chrome instead of edge though? At least with edge you cut out google, with chrome you give data to both.

Tbf I went to their website and still don’t know. Some kind of encyclopaedia of math theories I guess.

Well well well, guess I was right to completely disregard my health and well being all these years.
- Comment on In its first week, Immortals of Aveum had a peak count of just 751 players on Steam. 10 months ago:
Same, although maybe it was targeted more at console players and fans of fps games. I looked it up just now and it looks well made, and also interesting. Finger guns and lots of movement, etc. Something went very wrong to get low numbers on this.
