Yeah, this is a pretty westernized and infantilizing view. Way to take someone's autonomy and compare it to -checks notes- slavery and involuntary human sacrifice.

Please read some eastern philosophy and history before making comments like this. Suicide isn't stigmatized outside of Abrahamic viewpoints.

Self-immolation as a form of protest has millennia of history behind it, especially in Buddhism and Hinduism. Ancient Greeks have records of it. The Indus Valley have records of it. Ancient Chinese have records of it. Tibetan monks set themselves on fire in order to protest for an independent Tibet. Norman Morris set himself on fire at the Pentagon to protest the Vietnam War.

Please don't reduce an active form of protest against someone's oppression as someone simply "killing themselves" and "shouldn't be celebrated". It's a pretty narrow and callous world view that may reflect your experience, but not of wider human history.

Do we have a c/shittyfoodporn? Because this could do numbers there.

This would explain why the soundtracks for these games suddenly started appearing on my playlists. Atlus has been pretty good recently about releases on PC, so I hope that's the case here too.

Sorry to be horny on main, but I'm pretty sure Tilda Swinton's Gabriel jumpstarted puberty for me.

Nothing, that's what I'm trying to say. All the "sports" I listed have some sort of skill expression that can be judged. Why is break dancing less worthy? Should skateboarding also not have been included? Why is making a horse hop around to music considered a "real sport"?

It's all arbitrary.

The sensory overload I get every time I visit a Japanese website. Rakuten legitimately made me tear up in terror the first time I had to use it, I don't even wanna know what working the backend entails.

"...For Nvidia, after this latest run-up took it north of the $3T milestone, the company is being valued at more than $100M for each of its 29,600 employees (per its filing that counted up to the end of Jan 2024).

That’s more than 5x any of its big tech peers, and hundreds of times higher than more labor-intensive companies like Walmart and Amazon. It is worth noting that Nvidia has very likely done some hiring since the end of January — I think the company might be in growth mode — but even if the HR department has been working non-stop, Nvidia will still be a major outlier on this simple measure.

We are running out of ways to describe Nvidia’s recent run... but a nine-figure valuation per employee is a new one."

I know this is more business than tech related, but for some reason I am not able to post it to the business community, so I'm posting it here.

The Verge published this spam article about the "best printers of 2024" to demonstrate how terrible Google's search results are. It now appears as the top non-sponsored post if you search "best printer" on Google.

I love a good, informative troll.
