Just want to say, with more than just an upvote, that I agree with you. My shit-eating grin at the news did fade when learning that his children were in the crowd. They did not ask to be born with that dickhead as a father, and now have to live with one of the most traumatic thing a child can go through.

I think one can be happy that there is one less fascist spewing hate in the world, but still feel sympathy for a couple of innocent children. There is no contradiction here.

They saw their father shot and killed in front of their eyes, and the video will probably forever be online. The only support they'll get is from that dead piece of shit group of fascist friends. They will most definitely not be fine.

You know what, you're right. Given the state of things we are far beyond just being reactive to that shit and have to proactively stop it. I'm sure there are already efforts in that direction, I'll look into it.

Some good fucking news.

See you guys next year to push it back again.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. If you do, it's a fantastic ride.

A fascist, killed from a bullet in the neck, shot from a great distance, and not a real suspect in sight?

Yeah, I know who did it:

Yup, migrating the docs from on-prem confluence to the cloud one has just been an utter disaster in my company.

I don't even want to know how much we pay for this shit.

You weren't wrong across the board though. I know it's hard to focus on the positives these days, and we are constantly bombarded with depressing and inane content, but we can't lose sight of them.

It's hard to overstate how much the internet has made scientific research and collaboration easier for instance. The sheer amount of research being done has exploded, and it's far from being all slop. Publishers try their best to paywall the articles but they're still available nonetheless.

And what about all the art that is shared online by people who would never, in a million years, have been able to show their creations to the world before the internet. Not to mention the people who don't share it but can make it because of freely available information.

I know it's not as idyllic as you probably foresaw it (yeah, understatement of the century, I know), but it did happen, even though unfortunately it also led to a gigantic pile of shit. Both can be true simultaneously.

Yes, some sort of commune is definitely not out of the question, on a personal level. That does not help the vast majority of people who stand to benefit from it (more so than me) though.

Congratulations on making and shipping a game on your own. That's really fucking impressive.

The game looks very cool, I'll definitely try the demo later!
