Hmm, it's difficult.

Moribito has good character development for its woman lead character. And while GitS is definitely a bit male-oriented as a series, I would say that the character development of Motoko is pretty good in each of the series I've seen (The movies, Stand alone complex 1 + 2) but still definitely a bit light on character development.

I think it might be a good idea to tell us what series you didn't like so we know how low the bar is.

I don't think we want 50% stake, where things are going. This sounds like we'll end up bailing them out one way or another...

It's crazy how normalized gambling became the last 10 or so years.

It used to be really hard to gamble legally. Now it's hard to find someone not pushing "legal gambling" everywhere. Meanwhile, we still can't smoke weed in some parts of the world? What?

More cases of "rules for thee and not for me", of course. You won't see the DOJ arresting anyone in the Trump family making the same kind of bets.

If this guy's lawyer is smart about this, they should ask for discovery on specific instances of insider trading that we know about like the Iran bombing bets made on Kalshi or similar platforms. It would probably be a quick way to get the case dismissed or at least settled out.

The world's first opt-in computer worm. 🐛 🪱

I wish Europe would just embrace the fediverse. The techno oligarchs are not your friends and most of them are invested in the US.

"In principle I like being a democracy. But the practice of it? Nah, I'd rather we do secretive bullshit."

Neat, I'll keep this in mind next time the liberals are in power lol.

Electron is the only cross platform gui toolkit...

If you ignore QT, GTK and everything else.

I'm so glad that Microsoft makes an awesome cross platfor--- wait, no, but they contribute code to--- hmmm ... Hey, what does Microsoft do to make apps more portable again?

Crazy how nVidia is the backbone of the modern tech oligarchy.

Glad Steve made this video to expose the craziness of the whole thing.

This guy is so dumb, man.

As if "we'll just kill people" isn't just a declaration of war. 🙄

It's stupid as hell to share any personal information with a company that is interested in spying on you and feeding your data to the nearest advertiser they can find.

Like seriously -- are people using their brains or what?

The term "unalive" is so cringey yet dystopian that I don't know whether to feel embarrassed or concerned when I hear it.
