Nobody is immune to all bias all of the time, you just have to know what the right bias is to push in your marketing. It’s what makes advertising propaganda so insidious, it’s like the flu everyone is susceptible.

whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Comic Books@lemmy.world•DC cancels Red Hood. Writer Has 'No Regrets' Over Charlie Kirk Comments, Despite FiringEnglish71·2 天前Guessing DC isn’t releasing any statements regarding the hateful, violent rhetoric Kirk made a mint from like it would be good to kill trans people because his bronze age foreskin removal manual said to, fucking hypocrites. Sometimes it takes a firing to learn who has integrity to stand up for themselves, looking forward to see what she works on next.

whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.comto movies@piefed.social•What is your dream movie that will most likely never happen?2·2 天前That’s awesome! James Mangold directing sounds great too. If it’s not ‘Saga of’ then letting them do their own standalone thing sounds like the next best thing.

World of Warcraft launched a month later you could run on any video card from the last 5 years and the whole franchise still hasn’t recovered.
whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.comto movies@piefed.social•What is your dream movie that will most likely never happen?4·2 天前There were a bunch of books and comic books from my youth I didn’t think would get adapted but there’s a DC The Ray animated series so I guess everything is at least a maybe.
A full Saga of Swamp Thing movie series would be wonderful. There’s no way Alan Moore signs off on any more movie adaptations though.

Something with an engaging story planescape torment & torment tides of numenera.
I suspect there was also a demographic and normative shift when a bunch of people left when they dropped 3rd party apps and sided with advertisers over moderators. I think the average age dropped along with the shift and the next September after 3rd party apps were dropped in the summer.
There were similar changes after the large increase in users from the digg migration; subreddits split, norms around what gets votes and moderated changed for a broader audience on the larger subreddits, more general topic and current pop events instead of more science and tech, more memes and videos instead of article and plain text, etc.

Seems to work fine then won’t respond to remote and needs a reboot, some weird stuff with the VPN too. Should have probably just got a mini form PC instead.
whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Games@lemmy.world•Thoughts on the humble bundle this month?English3·7 天前Return to monkey island was pretty fun if you enjoy the originals or telltale versions. The movement and gunplay in d2 was a lot of fun, too bad they screwed up so bad with the expansions and monetization.
whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Television@piefed.social•What are you watching and what do you recommend this week?2·7 天前It’s still pretty early but if I had to pick one Harry Kim, just seems like he’s trying to help people around him like Torres and Paris, a little gossiping with Tuvok about the fighting.
If I got this right you took something I didn’t say as your foundational point to argue against, said that I should say what you want me to say instead to be truthful, and that advocating for intolerance against the intolerant is dumb because you’ve defined it to either include or require political violence.
I guess you get points for boldness, but -10 points from gryphondorf for arguing with yourself.
And to be clear; supporting assassinations & enjoying the poetic justice of someone who advocated for gun violence and that some people should be killed for who they were born as and not their choices getting killed by a gun are not the same thing.
