The way I approach it is that you have to mentally prepare and then just "spin your own head cannon" of how it would have wrapped up. That can be better than if a show went on for too long past the main storyline, or the main storyline wrapping up disappointingly. You just have to learn to accept that some awesome stories won't be finished.

So overall for me it's not that important for decision to watch or not.

We really need to start thinking about how we can reorganize news and social media, because that is how fascism spread their nonsense. We need to somehow get money out of the media, so they are at least owned by their own staff as a kind of trust or coop. This wouldn't keep anyone from saying what they believe.

Yeah but it still could affect the global price of food. Which is enough that people might go undernourished or starve in some other country. Probably not in this case over "only" 160 tonnes, but it's still despicable.

The US helped Saudi Arabia bomb the shit out of Yemen for a long time (search). I'm not properly educated about this myself but there are war crimes, starvation, a lot of shit. I mean you can't keep up. But to them, enforcing sanctions against Israel creates local support, otherwise they are a pretty bad Islamist regime. The Houthis are also not proxys of Iran. So US bombing them probably helps them too internally.

But there is so much shit going on that it's hard to keep up.

Wow. I honestly don't understand how people think these AI models don't exhibit creativity.

I think people are going a bit overboard with the reddit hate. I used the site for over a decades, learned a lot and had a lot of laughts and fun and gripes. To want to "burn it down" now because of api and ai stuff is understandable, but seems just vindictive. What public good is supposed to be achieved with this?

I'm feeling a bit of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and a little of 12

These fucked up times make for strange bedfellows.
