The Barbie movie isn’t attacking men, it just lampoons society using the Barbies and Kens as silly caricatures.
Maybe it has a slight vapid girl power message but the real message is “hey remember this Barbie doll? Give us money”

Dude, consider getting therapy. You need to learn to love yourself first
An open source algorithm that the user base can see and understand how it works is different than a closed source algorithm that serves to benefit advertisers more than users
Magistrate Judges can be literally anyone in the US
The card number is your username, a physical card is a separate factor.
NO, I’m also not from this instance for similar reasons
If you self-host all the same services you have the same exposure level if root on your hosting machine is compromised. I suppose it depends on how confident you feel in how agile you can patch if a vulnerability becomes known in postfix for example. I wouldn’t consider self hosting something that reduces your cybersecurity risk typically
Has no one really done an RTA 70 star ABC before now?
I love the concept of this challenge, good on this lad for doing this, I thought most strats were TAS only.
We don’t need infinite population growth to support the economy but eventually we are going to hit a point where we have to support more retired people than workers. At that point the economy will slow down as there is less demand because people will lose their jobs because of the less demand. People will also be spending more of their time and incomes taking care of their older relatives.
Our current Ponzi scheme, robbing Peter to pay Paul, method of funding social security will break down at that point and we will have to decide whether we send mom and dad and grandpa and grandma to the poor house, increase taxes on the workers who still have their jobs, or redistribute wealth from the 1%.
People won’t vote for the first 2, so we might actually get socialism at that point but it will hurt a lot on the way there.
As an unpopular opinion on the other end, it’s ok to stop participating in pop culture. Pop music, Blockbuster movies, and TV are all meant to sell consumerism to young people with disposable incomes. Not to people who are bogged down by kids and mortgages.
New media isn’t made for your tastes, so unless you make an effort to change your tastes to those of the current generation of young people, new media will never be seen as good enough by you
Because the rulers under communism are still the political class and not the working man. And instead of being able to uplift yourself via entrepreneurship you have the state controlling every aspect of your life, your career, and your ability to own property
I agree, because these posts have reach beyond just Lemmy, it’s the whole fediverse. No need to address just one platform
I just use the reminders app on my iPhone, I tried a bunch of other apps. But it was the integration on my watch, Mac, iPad, etc that just made that option the most ideal, despite lacking features of some the otbers
You could use PWA web app emulators like afterplay.io but native app emulators were always banned from the App Store until now
Even though the PlayStation logo wail always made me feel uncomfortable, if I had an cd in the PS1, booting to the save manager/audio player creeped me out even more
Many slaves were Christians while they were in the bondage of slavery.
If you look at the macro you can find religion being used to further oppression, violence, and see that many of its adherents profess bigoted beliefs.
But on the micro level, if you were to ask these people their experience with their religion they’d likely point to their church as a community that accepted them, that fed and clothed them if they were needy, that contributed to the parks or schools their children go too.
Not everyone has negative experiences with religion. Religion isn’t inherently evil. Religion is flawed in that it’s practiced by humans who are flawed. Don’t take this as an excuse for the harm that people have done in the name of religion. Both the good and bad are a product of people.
Governments further oppression and violence as much as organized religion does and yet we don’t think we ought to get rid of democracy. If you think that if you removed religion that the human race would stop being shitty, I would have to say that is a naive belief.
People should be able to practice their culture and religion as so far as it doesn’t impede on others’ liberty. Asking why X group is X religion is small-minded in my opinion.
The big difference is when a user clicks on their content and summarizes it for themselves, the content creator is paid for an ad view. When a computer does it, they aren’t. If a user shares their summary they are plagiarizing and can be sued for damages. When AI does it, the current system is too bad so sad
Who says that? Seems kind of silly to put some one in a box based on their phone OS preference
A link to the past, I couldn’t put that down once I started it
The hype was for its star studded cast. The movie itself was also a chuckle but was really obvious for its critique and satire.
