I got this update on my smart TV, and I don't think Google realizes how much of an improvement it is. It's unintentionally the best thing the app has ever done.

Finally, no more fucking clickbait clutter all over the screen. I already just search for the channels I want to watch anyway. I love it.

Bocchi the Rock!

I don't know who decided that a 4koma should get some of the most inventive and expressive animation of this decade, but they're a fucking genius.

I only learned about it from seeing a webm of the Blender scene, and I thought "ok, this is kinda hilarious, I gotta give this a shot." I was watching happily until episode 5, when I thought "wait, are they gonna play the whole song? They are aren't they. Wait a minute, this song fucking rules." And every single episode after that was banger after banger. One hilarious bit, stylish animation cut, and kickass song, one after another.

As an aside, I watched My Dress-Up Darling season 1 before Bocchi, and watching season 2 now, and you can tell how much Bocchi the Rock influenced Cloverworks. Season 1 had good animation, but it was fairly standard. Season 2 they've been much more experimental and it has been a joy to see it all.

If they do, that includes them. Decision makers at all levels, nobody gets to say "hey I didn't make Mastercard act this way." Because the status quo would have been to carry on processing video game payments, even in the face of a minority faction like Collective Shout.

No, absolutely not. I don't think any society is good that treats its workers so poorly it drives them to suicide. I do not wish to see my country have to employ such devices.

Unless MC and Visa are run by people who already agree with Collective Shout and are just using them as an excuse to enforce this policy.

The tankies yearn for the Foxconn suicide nets.

Texas is the land of dead children and low taxes and proud of both.

"Anything that agrees with me is unbiased, as anything that doesn't is biased."

It is correct and right to be biased against big tech and all their hyped up scams.

Quantum huh? I was gonna guess it would be brain chips given Muk's obsession with it.

They're so desperate to make the real-life Snowcrash, Ready Player One, Matrix, they haven't even acknowledged how hard metaverse flopped, nor how there's no "smuggling" anything into a virtual "space". They can't stand the idea that what they really made was Worse Second Life 30 Years Later.

Can any Danish people answer a question for me?

I'm reading about the Positive List for working in Denmark. If a foreign national were to search for a job in Denmark, which should they get first? A work visa, or an offer of employment? Does either document require the other?

(Machine translated)

Er der nogen danskere, der kan svare på et spørgsmål for mig? Jeg læser om Positivlisten for at arbejde i Danmark. Hvis en udlænding skal søge job i Danmark, hvad skal vedkommende så have først? Et arbejdsvisum eller et tilbud om ansættelse? Kræver det ene dokument det andet?

 

I stuck it out on kbin.social for as long as it lasted, and just sort of swore off social media after it finally went under. Yet here I am...

So does anyone have the "let me explain, no there is too much, let me sum up" of the last 2 years? What sexy new features did mbin pick up while I was gone?
