My family typically doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving with the usual Thanksgiving fare (Mom's not a big turkey and stuffing person) so we decided to do dim sum instead and do Thanksgiving the Indo way with her favorite meal combo: chicken satay and ketupat sayur

Capitalism poisoned nostalgia so much that some people can’t seem to enjoy nostalgia of *any* kind now. Not all nostalgia is bad? So what if you like a seasonal food or family tradition just because of nostalgia?? It’s fine!! Let yourself enjoy harmless things and warm fuzzy memories.

These self-proclaimed "Marxists" who attack the working class just because they wanna eat absolutely do not have society's best interests in mind. They operate on self-gratification under the guise of leftist ideology so they don't receive the same condemnations as the ones who are obvious about it.
Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

I don't think piracy is evil. I believe piracy is most ethical (in fact, a necessity) at corporate entities/systems. piracy is often the most authentic way history is recorded and archived. and piracy often acts as communal promotion among impoverished or geo-locked fan bases.... but also, come on

pirates plunder those with the resources to steal. don't steal from creators, they're as poor as you and what they're willing to make for money they offer for panhandling.

creators share 90% of their work for free, so what ends up for sale is a small fraction to gather income and support. treating creators like they aren't already sharing freely riles me up.

also: libraries exist, you can read books for free without stealing while supporting authors at the same time
People who pirate books: “I just think art and literature should be FREE to everyone!”

Yes, I too would love to live in a world where art is accessible freely to all and yet artists are paid a living wage, but as this magical wagical pixie wixie land does not exist, please don’t steal from us.

4 hours??? I know what I'm doing Thanksgiving weekend
So you made a robot stand up and talk... now what? In this over 4-hour journey, Kevin follows the promise of Disney's Living Character Initiative, an effort to populate Disney theme parks with free-roaming, interactive beings. It was touted as the future. How's it going? Watch here: bit.ly/49C6vng

THIS IS GONNA BE A LONG STORY SO GET READY

I think I've always wanted to be an artist of some kind since middle school, despite my parents advised against it as a career path, but Ive always loved drawing characters and making comics, but as soon as I graduated high school, it all kinda stopped.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

I feel like the 90s was just the decade of edgy, aloof cool guys with swords.

Been revisiting Mega Man X for nostalgia's sake and felt there was a lack of Maverick fan art and decided to contribute, so here's Launch Octopus doing the Squidward dance meme.

*head in hands*

You know... Microsoft... We never had this problem... BEFORE you made your AI slop... Right?

Microsoft: "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! WE ARE THE NEXT PIONEERS OF THE FUTURE! COPILOT IS THE NEXT GENERA-"

Can someone PLEASE find a way to break Copilot to the point of nonfunctionality?
"Microsoft warns that Windows 11's agentic AI could install malware on your PC: 'Only enable this feature if you understand the security implications.'"

bro what--
what are we doing here, exactly, how can you--anyone be okay with this?
