It’s too late, we can’t contain it
It truly is the century of the Linux desktop.
If you shut down game servers in a way that renders the game unplayable you should be legally compelled to release the server source code.
I sense a great disturbance in the force, as if millions of wallets cried out in pain, and were suddenly emptied.
Even batteries and wind have seen some pretty serious cost reduction. It’s looking pretty great for renewables.
Yeah hopefully we get a steam controller 2 that’s basically the same as the steam deck but I’m not holding my breath. It’s the perfect control scheme for PC in my view at least.
That’s pretty cool, I didn’t realise there were so many folks using controllers on Steam. I also absolutely love Steam Input.
I just want a steam controller 2 that’s basically exactly the same as the steam deck input scheme!
Haha whaaattt… Nobody actually does that…haha, that would be like, just kinda silly right…
glances nervously at Steam library

Ok fine, let’s get some more sleep tonight.
Yoooo whaddup Franken Fam, welcome to another video thank you all so much for being here with me today, don’t forget to smash that like button and hit that bell because today we’re talking about the exact perfect time and placement to set up your lightning rod. If you set that up too early, the whole neighbourhood is going to see it and start asking questions and I know for the type of experiments we’re doing, we don’t want the whole world to know what we’re up to which is exactly why I use NordVPN. Whilst having a reanimated human is perfect for real life defence, if you want to stay safe online there is no better value than NordVPN especially if you use my referral link down in the description. It really helps the channel so thank all of you guys who’ve already signed up. Now, let’s get right into it but first don’t forget to check out my Patreon where I drop exclusive videos every month. Last month was a super in depth guide for how to stop your creations turning on you so if that sounds like something you want to check out, take a look and I’m sure we have a tier that’s appropriate for you. Obviously guys no obligation, but for those who want to go the extra mile and support the channel it really does help particularly as with our subject matter, some videos can get demonetised so huge shout out to the Patreon community. Now onto the video
Wow, it’s really hard to imagine the deep societal harm done by these five people. And you do have to imagine it because it doesn’t exist.
Such a fantastic game, I really need to fire it up again.
Indeed. I own a Nintendo Switch and Breath of the Wild but Nintendo says I’m not allowed to play it on my Steam Deck. I guess that’s the last time I buy something from them. Their games really are amazing though so it’s a shame.
Good question, I didn’t even consider that I just used the same language that was in the title without thinking.
EDIT: Reread my reply here after post workout clarity and I was being an asshole. Was probably being an overly combative asshole during the rest of the discussion as well so I take the lions share of blame for this discussion going off the rails, sorry about that. If you have any resources you think would be good for me to take a look at to understand your view better, I’d be happy to read them, but understand if you don’t want to take the effort also. Appreciate you coming here to make the counterpoint to my original comment, always better that than just another echo chamber.
You’re making an argument against sex work so assuming you expect others to be convinced by it, I think it’s fair to expect a rational argument. It doesn’t have to be mathematical, but at least rational and honest so I don’t think it’s absurd to point out what I see as a dishonest persuasive technique.
Given the discussion seems to have devolved now into accusations, I don’t think there’s much more to be gained for either of us. From my perspective, your assertion that sex work is a form of rape is not justified, simply asserted and then you use that as a basis on which to argue. A broader appeal to the nature of work under capitalism is simply a non sequitur. You have to show that the impact is similar if you want to make a valid argument here as to why they should be considered the same. If you have no interest in doing so, that’s completely fair but you can’t expect anyone to be convinced.
Just because I do not agree with you, does not mean I don’t take what you say seriously or am refusing to engage with it. Your efforts would be better served showing that abolishing sex work would reduce harm, rather than attacking me.
Ok thank you. I understand your argument better now I think, at it’s core it is an argument for abolishing the capitalist system of labour, including sex work. I can get behind the idea of introducing a new system of labour, the current one certainly doesn’t seem to be working very well for the vast majority of people. I don’t find it a convincing argument for the abolition of the sex industry though, because I don’t think you’ve demonstrated that this work is more harmful than other work. It seems like a selective application of the ideas you put forward. Like saying tiling roofs is dangerous, therefore we should ban all red rood tiles. Using the word rape feels like an appeal to emotion to me, there are ways we could demonstrate that sex work is objectively harmful that would convince me but I haven’t seen that.
Thanks for the interesting discussion though.
People would just point out that the whole thing is Al generated though.
