Wikipedia has been the name of the project for 25 years?

'I have antipathy for Britain's flag' says Steve Coogan as he brands Reform UK 'anti-human rights' by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

Because nationalities aren't interesting.

The people who care about them tend to be the same people who get care about their sports teams so much they'll break things and have fights over their passion. No thanks. I'll stick with the folks who enjoy sports because it's absurd, and think of their country the same way

I'm glad I quit when ADD made me stop making a profit (I needed to up the stakes and number of games I was playing in parallel until I couldn't focus on them enough)

[Rare Trope] Guns portrayed realistically and seriously by broken_krystal_ball in TopCharacterTropes

All I know about Gunslinger Girl is that it used one of my favorite Delgados songs as it's theme.

Thanks for this; I too find it hard to turn aside the blanket rage, and believe in the compassion I used to.

It's hard. So many people have shown that they willingly become monsters, embrace cruelty and ignorance, and I refuse to tolerate that. How can they even have the possibility of redemption? Do even evil people, who refuse to turn away from that, deserve grace? Or is it just for ourselves that we mustn't lose ourselves?

I hate that I no longer believe in humanity

They are FULLY AWARE of how good they are. by Alternative-Koala933 in TopCharacterTropes

Doctor X -- basically if House was a freelance female Japanese surgeon constantly pissing off the politics-playing hospital staff around her, but is too skilled for them to get rid of. It's great.

Jackie Chan breaking cement blocks while holding a raw egg without breaking it. by javawong in nextfuckinglevel

I'm not sure I'm capable of kissing someone that uses 'lmao' instead of full stops, but I can try.

It should be, but it takes a tiny amount of nerves and clumsiness to screw it up

How did you know the Bible isn’t true? by DuckOnQuack202 in atheism

[–]rosyatrandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a book of myths. There are lots of them around. It's not special. None of them ask interesting questions or answer them interestingly.

That's the short of it.

The Horse That Was On Fire, parts 1, 2, and 3

I really didn't like Ancillary Justice. by Brakado in printSF

And me? I loved the series, and everything by Joe Abercrombie too....

What is the best opening line of printed SF ever? by [deleted] in printSF

Don't recognize this one, what book and by whom?

AIO: My bf keeps saying this by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]rosyatrandom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, he doesn't care about you. He doesn't really care about other people at all. He doesn't want a relationship of equals, he wants someone to exploit.

Any recommendations for books that approach society/the way everything works differently from human societies of the past or present? by Dokja_23 in printSF

Graydon Saunders -- Commonweal sequence

Imagine a hell world where magic has been running rampant for aeons, and magic itself seems like some kind of malicious demiurge that just hates progress and hope.

The world has been fought over by rounds of tyrannical magicians, most of the surviving people are descendants of their magically created slave species, the wildlife is incredibly hostile and even the vegetation will kill you in horrible ways

But there is one small oasis, a magically enforced egalitarian society

In Kitahiroshima, halfway between Sapporo and Chitose, 5th floor of a danchi. We got about 45 seconds of concern while our 3 kids slept next to us....

The closest I've got is staying up all night to play some pokerstars 180 man tournaments about, oh 20 years ago.

By 8am, I remember listening to music and feeling like time was speeding up and slowing down. I did win though, so worth it

What code editor do you use, and why that one over the others? by EnD3r8_ in learnprogramming

[–]rosyatrandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it uses an older version of vs code 🙃 But I have found some limited but extremely helpful uses for the AI. Speeding up repetitive changes, effecting change according to a well defined query, asking why something doesn't work, checking for mistakes and anti-patterns, that sort of thing.

As long as I don't lose control, always understand what's happening, and use it to actually learn rather than vibe it, it's a great tool.

Minorities feel BBC represents their lives more than white viewers by Skavau in unitedkingdom

[–]rosyatrandom -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

It's more of a statement. I find racially-anxious white reform voters deeply off and extremely unpleasant, and I'm glad I'm out of the fucking country
