I think we need to keep children off the internet but there’s not really a way to do that other than having parents be more responsible. I think public shaming could work wonders in this area

yeah i'm gonna agree and it's also the fact that scott is supposed to be attractive and charming (not to make a dig at michael cera), which is why is can get away with being a loser

that's good, i can't really remember the movie tbh. i just see a lot of people who misrepresent the story are usually talking about the movie

the film doesn't explore it as well as the comics did, but the story is about scott being a shitty, under-developed 23 year old. he is confronted with his past and forced to reckon with how terribly he has treated the women in his life. scott is supposed to help ramona defeat her evil ex-boyfriends but is faced with that prospect that he could become one if he doesn't become a better person. i'd really recommend reading it as the film gives the wrong impression of the story

The more likely reason for blacklisting the developer is to cause a chilling effect on other developers. Apple has one of the best developer ecosystems and Meta is likely terrified of letting their developers anywhere near Apple. Having good apps is so important to a platform

ok i see and yeah i agree to an extent. i'm assuming you don't like the current state of twitter either? your initial comment was pretty ambiguous. unfortunately, i don't think you can have something similar and as popular as twitter without it turning into a mess. so yeah, bluesky will likely just be twitter again but that's what people seem to want. attempts to do something different just don't have any mainstream appeal.

i'm gonna assume you haven't read the manga and i will warn that this question invites a lot of spoilers

damn you're a real OG. And by quite a bit based on those double spaces there (either that or you're a lawyer lol)

I was on Reddit for over a decade and it definitely used to have way more Linux evangelism until the site became more mainstream

I just want to add some additional context: Taiwan existed as a nation long before the RoC fled to the island and massacred the population (look up the White Terror). There continues to be quite a bit of tension between the original population and the RoC about the national identity. I wouldn't really call Taiwan the true China. My family is native Taiwanese and I know there is a lot of anger at how their government was taken over.

Yeah... I tried the htc vive back when it came out and the experience was incredible but ultimately there's not much it can do other than be a cool experience. Maybe vr will find its footing one day but it's a really hard thing to get right
