I think there's a clear difference between testing it in areas where the fallout will affect a population, and intentionally ending the lives of 200K people in a flash.

200k people were vaporized by atomic bombs in an utterly indiscriminate manner. This is inclusive of babies, little infants literally melted in a second. The radiation persisted decades after the blast.

We give it a special status despite conventional warfare still being capable of greater numbers, because of how exceedingly cruel and indiscriminate it is.

Historians described it as an 'ethical shock' and I agree with the term. If the yanks did not elect to exclusively melt civilians with their demonstration history might look at it differently.

smh these are actors, this is a staged fun time. if you look closely you can see the crowd and horizon is a comically large cardboard cutout painted to resemble a beach.

Incredibly cool concept. Put in a seed (or roll randomly) and fall into an old sourcemod community map. You can come across other people on the same seed as yourself. High chance to spawn into the void, you have to keep rerolling.

Make sure HL2 and CS:S are installed. TF2 as well if you can help it

capitalist excess. the concept of a shared universe between massive Hollywood blockbusters is cool. Even better if you can spin it into different media types. A huge shared universe is cool!

Oh fucking woops you did it too much and now there's 300 hours of content to watch, and its all the same shit. mediocre movie with a post credits stinger. over and over again.

a restrained approach probably would have unironically stopped after the first avengers movie. they achieved their goal by then, everything after is just excess.

Seeing wider internet groups implode over the revelation the internet has had massive perverse pedophilic influence since the earliest days of their favourite internet forums (basically 4chan.)

Essessentially, mad that the Marxists were right again.

Tf man, wildest twist. Has me even angrier, all that damage and (presumably) loss of life to kidnap a world leader. Americans are going to use the fact they were so 'precise' and 'just went after the president' to justify forgetting about it all and leaving Venezuela to rot.

The US is such an evil country, and sometimes I can only hope history remembers it as a racist warmonger country responsible for so much suffering.

your tesla steers into a group of children crossing the street b/c its grok-based brain deduced it was a woke mob of protestors attempting to box you in. you try to apply the brakes but grok has a prompt hardcoded in urging it to not shy away from politically incorrect actions. seven children are instantly killed and another two are splattered across your windshield. your tesla dings that its time to replace the wiper fluid.

elon retweets the news story weeks later with a one word reply. another twitter user asks grok if its true. grok replies by questioning the veracity of the holocaust

Developer ZA/UM says it’s actually for TikTok users.

“We intend to captivate the TikTok user with quick hits of compelling story, art, and audio, ultimately creating an all new, deeply engaging form of entertainment,” ZA/UM head Denis Havel said in a news release (via IGN).

let's gooooo I can't wait for the subway surfer in-app purchase DLC. no i'm not kidding, the store page marks it as having in-app purchases. something something capital subsuming something.

I love Telltale and Telltale-adjacent games. Those narrative games where you sit back and choose dialogue options and action choices instead of actively playing.

I think a lot of those types of games miss that you have to tell a really good story for any of that to work.

Star Trek: Resurgence looks pretty good, but did anyone here play it? Is it actually good? Or is it Star Trek-flavored slop?

I just finished the Jakarta Method and it left me genuinely dismayed. Not like, astounded with how horrible it all was (I knew it was going to be horrible), but more, it made me put the book down and sit with my feelings of dismay. A little bit nauseous, unsettled, feeling a loss of hope for a lot of ideals I hold.

What a horrible period of history, in a century absolutely full of horrible periods.
