Honestly even in things targetted at adults, the overwhelming majority of it caps at high school aged characters. I think that’s just partly the last time they are, psudo free before getting sucked into the work machine

That’s why I threw the caveat there “unless you can physically walk to where they handmake it”, but of course depends what you want and if you live anywhere near somewhere that does it.

I think the key point here is. sadly the glut of the world right now, plus AI video etc… Point is if you try and buy something “handmade” from the internet, You’ll find a lot of mixed quality AI generated videos of people pretending to make the stuff, plus even if they didn’t AI generate the video, they may have just gotten or filmed one person making something similar to what they dropship once. (you can probably tell once you get it, but you’ll probably have to buy 5 counterfiets before you find a real one, unless you can physically walk to where they handmake it and see them make it.

Well yes but they obviously can and do pretend to be handmade. Worse yet they make AI videos of a person making a product, that looks similar to, and probably significantly better than the dropshipped mass produced crap that they actually ship out.

I mean it’s hollywoods wet dream. They constantly treat actors and writers like sh*t. leading to big strikes and sudden degrades in quality on the shows etc…

top it off actors are, well literally the face of their products. If Scarlet Johanson gets angry and goes on the interview circuit, people listen, No one gives a sh*t what Bob Iger has to say. I think hollywood execs would be happy to see the average quality of movies go way down, in exchange for 100% control of the face of the movies.

and that’s going to be the key strategy as well. Point is if EVERYTHING gets bad at the same time, people just accept it and pick the least bad option. Long as no studio can afford to make high quality acted movies… people will go see the new crap. Especially as they’ve transitioned everything to focus on IP rather than actors.

I know that, I’m just saying, this might generate less of them than the humans currently doing it by eyeball.

You know… this would be scary if the current system weren’t scarier. Glasses that misidentify even 70% of the time, may be significantly better than ice agents arresting everyone with a brownish skin color.

Honestly on so many things, no joke there but the right constantly proposes the democrats as, awesome and great.

It’s like

Right: My democratic opponent wants to help the homeless, and make sure average people have a dignified life. and not torture babies for no reason!

People: Hey you know that actually sounds like a good idea

Actual democratic candidate: Those people on the right are slandering me, don’t worry I won’t make any of your lives easier, and here I’ll torture a baby right now to prove this slander wrong!

Gambling and math would seem to me the opposite of two face’s concepts. IE the classic coin flip is because he considers 50/50 luck to be fairness. Gambling maths are typically, figuring out how to make something unfair in your favor.

I think the real point is, to try to adjust for the source, figure out what topics they seem to avoid, and take that into account. Point is there’s not really any news you can trust to be honest always about everything. But if you can figure out what topics each source is likely to censor and misrepresent, you can get the most accurate picture possible.

Wouldn’t law be the thing for Harvey to teach?

Wait are you implying some of the first particles to exit the big bang were nazi’s?

It’s room for discussion of whether non human animals could exhibit fassist characteristics. But time started over 13 billion years ago, and the earliest life that we know of can be estimated to be under 4 billion years ago. No matter how you slice it, even if another planet that we don’t know of, formed as fast as possible, and evolution took a beeline to the first viable species capable of having nazi ideology. there has to have been at least a billion years of no nazis.

Yeah the general concept is… Agents and Detectives aren’t the line of fire people. Detectives are called in AFTER the action is long over, and regular cops would be the ones doing the chasing in the .01% of situations where there’s someone on scene to chase.

Most types of “agents” are pretty boring overall. Interviews, note taking, or if it is excitement they are undercover so, they’d wear what matters for that role.

and of course 99% of combat is, draw a gun, aim for the center of mass.

Physical violence is mostly only done by badly trained beat cops, or failed beat cops that are now ice agents.

Is it a stupid question, if you answer it all in the post?

We only want to support aggressors in wars. if you want the US’s help, you need to 1. already have a nuke, 2. drop the first bomb.

No there’s a valid point to not want to be a part of a community that platforms the individuals. and I can certainly see a valid point in why blocking doesn’t solve it. 1. different users post from the artists, it’s not going to be met at an individual level.

IMO it should be a community level decision.

Though that’s why I still hold to the suggestion that this scism is large enough that a community should be made. Because I can agree with the concept, if the mods in a community don’t agree, making a new community is a solution

I feel like we just need to split comics. Whole point of lemmy is to basically allow us to fragment. so mods of world comics don’t care, why not pick an instance make a comic strips with a banned author list. If more people would like to be free of comics from unsavory authors they can move there.

Based on cawthornes votes etc… I’d say the concept he has is more money going into the millitary budget, and more pre-emptive actions abroad keeps us safer back here.

Fully completely disagree with it a thousand fold. Had we not stuck our noses into the middle east so much 9/11 would never have happened (and I’m just working with what had happened at the time of cawthrons controversy rather than the obvious much more recent iran nonsense.

I mean, I have to say, so far in the running she seems to be the one that’s at least trying to gather support from the left of the party, rather than distancing herself as far from us as possible. With the current leaders like Gavin Newsome, who’s desperately trying to throw us under the bus, backing the billionares, and harris who’s feeling that her 2024 failure was because she was too far left.

So yeah she’s a flawed candidate, but so far I haven’t seen a better option yet.

In short Scott Cawthorn the creator donates a lot of money to political campaigns. Per his explanation a strong military is his single issue vote. Which has him throwing money towards people like Mitch McConnel, Tommy Tubberville, Trump and Tulsi Gabbard.
