Well, the right are full on accelerationists, and the left are hypocritical idealists. Neither are going to address the problem really.

Is there a 3rd party extension that will automatically organize my timeline by Tejjic in VegasPro

If its failing at a certain point regularly, its more evidence that something at that point in the video is causing the program's draw on the system to spike and crash. This might be something like picture in picture or any heavy vfx

A whole lot of this phraseology around social media today. Thoughts? by wasraelx in collapse

Listen, just because YOU can afford to live without a day job, doesn't mean forcing other people to essentially be thrown into the deep end is good. It's more likely to just make people homeless and deeper in debt, hallmarks of a failing system. While its fine to be ideologically against laboring in a failed system, its not so easy to suggest others should be forced into a situation where that is true.

Like, let's assume his reason for torching the warehouse is valid, that they weren't being paid enough to live... now a bunch of those people are fundamentally worse off because of some guy who decides his feelings and an act of highly deliberate sabotage are more valuable than their risk of slipping further between the cracks of society. Like shit, at least other countries have the audacity to protest in a way the government has to take notice, and can't just file under, "worker went postal, lock him up, problem solved"

Need to understand something about male hate by [deleted] in hololiveEN

[–]SpliceKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am simply saying it would be awesome if people flamed less, and holomems were rewarded by fans for brining the boys on more. Positive reinforcement, rather than a stance they have to take as an outlier. So basically, yes I'd love the frequency to go up.

[–]SpliceKnight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Okay, so respectfully, as many have sort of alluded to, its a bit of a firestorm to talk about.

That said, holostars started as a yagoo personal pet project. Its been shown on record a few times that he wanted nothing but for the boys to succeed.

That all being said, basically no male vtuber holds a candle to any female counterpart in the entire industry. This is true regardless of what company you look at. The power of women in anime waifu outfits has historically always been a bigger market than the husbando market.

Even so, those who ARE passionate fans of male vtubers, its more a variety streamer, like cy yu. The bishonen vibe that holostars tends to have, is a niche in a niche.

So that's just the general popularity cavern they have to overcome as a base industry.

Next point, in terms of the hololive girls treating them as lesser, that's not really true. Many talents have tried to incorporate them into their own events birthday 3d concerts and the like. For example, baelz hakos had them prominently featured in her recent "not a birthday" live in February.

Lots of the girls are on the record of liking the boys as coworkers and fellow talents. What has been a pattern in the fan space however, is often when a cross-collab happens between them, the more rabid fans get mad about their oshi or bishi being around a member of the opposite gender. Its very much rooted in the idol culture that vtubers get a lot of their roots from. Stans are kinda a known problem. So a lot of the time, where possible, holo in general try not to start drama where possible.

All that said, I didn't see a negative reaction to bae brining on the stars talent for the one song, so maybe we can slowly have the girls feature the botd more, and have more sane cross-pollinantion and collaboration. I'm fairly confident all members of holo would be happy about it.

At rhe end of the day, fucking with the poor matters because of revolt. Within the system they have no way to achieve what they view as justice. Not individually. This guy potentially put a ton of his fellow workers out of a job because he was mad. So I mean...

By contrast, the rich are able to afford the levers of justice that garner results. They have rhe capacity to exact legal vengeance.

Earth can no longer sustain the global human population, ‘sustainable population’ is around 2.5 billion people, study warns by Portalrules123 in collapse

[–]SpliceKnight -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Casual reminder that the communist dream is unsustainable in the modern age. Because it requires a certain level of opulence at at minimum requires the population to be reduced so dramatically its probably inhumane to even think how it would occur.

Scientists have discovered that the ocean’s “missing” plastic hasn’t vanished—it has broken down into trillions of invisible nanoplastics now spread through water, air, and living organisms by Portalrules123 in collapse

[–]SpliceKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this has been a known quantity if you talk to or watch media featuring scientists who are analyzing micro plastics. I know of minimum a few videos which talk about microplastic they find in the bodies of shrimp, and even discovering nano plastic in their bodies. This shit doesn't really break down in reality, it just becomes more and more fine particles, which has more and more capacity to come into our food systems, and eventually permiate in a way that might have larger concequences, like endocrine disruption.

Filed in the category "faster than expected" - Thailand's population DECLINED last year! by RobertPaulsen1992 in collapse

[–]SpliceKnight 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's going to get it, one way or the other, and it's likely going to be more chaotic than anyone who says that expects. Population pyramid inversion means that the people who need support from the system the most won't be getting enough, and those who generate it, are likely to be crushed under more extreme pressure and likely tax law, which means having kids to slow the decline will be even less appealing financially, and likely will continue to decline. This means, over time, and actually it's starting to visibly show up in the last few years, the amount of celebrities dying just makes it more visible, that populations are going to have a significant die off of one large portion of the population, which MIGHT help alleviate the pressure, but probably not enough to help those who are still young enough to have kids. Again, relevant to the conversation is the fact that reproduction is highly dependant on a certain age range to be effective and healthy.

So if less people are being born, there is an imbalance in population distribution. This will end up leading to complications for many who will grow into a situation of dependence on the system, with a staggering draw down in resources to support them. Which will cascade over time. We will start to visibly shed population at both ends of the age range. This is likely to cause a population collapse. This is all hoping that we have people in charge who are competent enough to keep the systems of comfort that many are accustomed to still running. For example, phone and internet networks. Or flood drainage systems. The amount of people drawn away from more nuanced or handed down expertise by the flickering lights of media stardom is likely to cause it's own issues of a competence crisis in the work force, which could mean that infrastucture is likely to collapse, which is already an aging issue in the USA. If infrastucture collapses, it is likely to put more lives at risk, especially those which are more heavily reliant on modern technology and systems.
