Exactly. The app developers were willing to make changes but they didn’t give them nearly enough time to do it. They dropped the changes at the last-minute and then lied about what they and the developers said in their private conversations. Then they got mad at the Apollo dev for recording it to cover their ass. It’s like getting mad at your partner when you cheated on them lol.

Genocide+

Right? I know Sam Altman sucks but I don’t know if he was fired for more profit or less, or what exactly is going on. I’m not sure how to react to these articles besides surprise and bemusement.

Well that post didn’t age well lol. Poor Nick.

How long has Gamurs owned The Escapists? I thought it was getting suspicious lately how many different things they were trying to get money so quickly.

They were putting more sponsor segments in ZP videos at different points and Nick would respond in the comments when people complained, trying to find a good place to put them. Then they started letting Yahtzee curse more and offering the uncensored version on their subscription service. And these changes were quickly one right after the other. I should’ve known something like this was coming, but I’m still sad about it. I hate capitalism so much. Why does these corporations have to ruin all my favorite things?

Considering everything else that has gone to shit recently for the same reason, you’re probably right.

This account is lot older than 19 days. I had to recreate it when my instance exploded recently =( Anyway, just musing. Hopefully the story is a lot different.

Haha I said “if”. It’s a comment section, there’s nothing else to do but comment.

Sounds like they definitely fucked up. So they just bought the channel for no reason. There will be no content now.

Woah. I wonder what happened 😬

If it was by a megaphone, that implies it was by a organizer which doesn’t look good. It’s already hard enough to not look anti-semitic while supporting Palestine without these events happening all around the world. (Plus synagogues getting threatened and so forth.)

Holy shit so no more Zero Punctuation? He was like half of that channel. Wow this came from nowhere.

How is Israel an apartheid state? Don’t they have an active Arab population?

I agree with most of what you’ve said, but just throwing in my 2 cents that I’ve never heard Zionist as an antisemitic buzz word, I’ve only ever understood it to as a way to differentiate Jews who support the Israeli and it’s settler colonialism project, and those who don’t. Maybe antisemitic use it, but I don’t think it’s a common dog whistle (like globalist is, for example).

Tbh, while in this case I think it’s egregious because I don’t think using a VPN should actually be a crime, I’d love to see that punishment system used in the US.

Imagine if instead of paying fines for illegal stuff and then continuing to ignore the laws, Facebook, X, and other rich people and corporations had to pay back all the income made from doing their illegal activity.

I only have the same issue with Mastadon that I do with Lemmy, I have no idea what instance to join. This one I’m apart of now for Lemmy I randomly joined when the admin said he’d accept reddit refugees who wanted to try out Lemmy.

If anyone has any suggestions for goof instances to pick I’d give Mastadon a try. Otherwise, it’s a nightmare for people like me (who’s been compared to Chidi from The Good Place in terms of my overthinking and decision making).

Either she was just unconscious or they are lying. But it seems pointless for the latter since they’d find out eventually, unless they plan on blaming her death on one of the bombs that are being dropped in Gaza. I guess we’ll see if the family gets her back.

Right?! I wouldn’t have believed the other person either if it weren’t for sources from pretty reputable news organizations. And it’s interesting that basically the same mistakes were made with these two different groups (Israel and Hamas, the US and Al-Queda). I bet it’s probably been done more in South America or Africa or something.

EDIT: But for others reading, no, it doesn’t make Hamas (or Al-Queda) the good guys. It just means there are multiple bad guys all around. But you can’t make me feel bad about being distraught from Hamas killing civilians. There were babies and other innocents in there who never did anything wrong to Palestinians, and rape is a war crime that I can never just look over.

Hm. They actually seem to be kinda right. According to this article and this one, which source Israeli government officials from the time, they helped them since the 80’s and basically helped make Hamas a thing. They did it to make the Muslim Brotherhood -based organization which ended up being Hamas and the more secular PLO fight each other, to basically drive a wedge in the Palestinians.

What if they took your home? Or your father’s home, your grandfather’s? All your families and neighbors? Then put you in MA open area concentration camp, controlled your food, water, electricity and movement, started destroying your sacred places, etc. Natives killed people for that, too.
