I wouldn't hold out much hope. Games Workshop was a nightmare to work with in the past. Doubley more now that they're owned primarily by BlackRock and investment banks.

If Netflix can totally fuck up the literal gimmie that was the Witcher..

Almost as hyped as the live action Avatar movie!

I think they do.

Edit:nope, and there are many much worse than Canada with Japan being the worst by a mile

Zelensky: 'Our partners fear that Russia will lose this war' ( kyivindependent.com )

President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine's partners "are afraid of Russia losing the war" and would like Kyiv "to win in such a way that Russia does not lose," Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent....

That's a nice way of calling people helping you cowards for doing it half hearted cuz they're also afraid of your opponent. I think the message was sent.

He MUST know how much influence Russia has in the halls of power and media of his allies as well.

Ukraine fights a war on MANY fronts. Not all of them with bullets.

Wtf is a tankie anyway?

That seems to be the function I see it used the most.

And yes, I do find it's a good indicator that they aren't very bright, or at least don't want to engage in constructive conversations.

Thanks all for letting me be the 'lucky' 10,000

If scientists had their way they'd have built the big one first. Or at least something reasonably larger than what they have.. it's politics that is capitalism and war that is the addiction preventing us from having nice things

xenoclast ,

And even more collecting of your data.

xenoclast ,

Companies selling data don't tend to be picky who they sell to. Governments and police buy data all the time.

The best part is a government can buy data and and can change the rules on what is illegal.

So, if they decide tomorrow that your innocent behavior is a threat, you're now a criminal.

Step one, be in full control of DNS on the network. Not difficult, but not simple.

Pedantry: it putter not potter.

Completely agree. I think it's a consequence of the late stage capitalist world. We're way too burned out to have the energy to go on adventures or the money to make it easy to do.

Wuuuuuuuut! That's crazy. I've been using it wrong my whole life.

Everything is a lie!

Thanks for your informative and less snarky answer. I learned something new today!

The backlash is generally against all enshitification.

You get a useful free plan. Make it useless over time to convince people to pay for a plan. Make THAT plan useless over time to make people pay for the more expensive plan.. repeat until capitalism ends.

That's why people care. Eg: see all subscription services ever

It's because we were given a name for something that didn't have a name before but was everywhere.

This is a great thing. With a definition we can understand and discuss the topic.

Language is magic. Some electrical impulses cause a bunch of electrochemical reactions in a complicated pile of meat to make air vibrate, and at a distance another complicated pile of meat turns the waves into a similar series of electrical impulses.

Of all the unlikely stuff to happen to make use.. that's still just wild...

You'd probably be sued into non existence by the shareholders

North Koreans in China showing the world how it's done. Who had THAT on their bingo card ?

Americans forget their middle class existed for the short time it did exactly because of actions like this.

You don't fight the enemy sitting on your toilet reading Lemmy posts. (It's still fun though)

Raises Fist .. not to get too deep into it.. but at this point we're closer to the Transnational Capitalist class vs Everyone else .
