  • They are very upfront about the bot describing bias against the American center and not the global or whatever “objective” standard people try to insert. By that metric, center-left perfectly describes NYT. Their editorial board has posted multiple times describing Trump as an unfit candidate and they have historically endorsed the democratic candidate. They’re obviously not even American leftist and they’re not center-left on the global scale, but it’s all relative.

    I personally like the extra information and those who don’t are free to block the bot. I have seen commentor twisting themselves into absolute pretzels to avoid admitting that they can simply block the bot.




  • I got this bundle and it has been really disappointing. The board games are good but the digital versions leave a lot to be desired… Lots of sync issues and UX trouble on Root. Quilts and Cats of Calico started in like 800x600 resolution and the first item in the main menu was a tutorial popup. Declined it to change my resolution and could not find a way to launch it again. Haven’t tried the rest yet but given that most of them are made by Direwolf, I’m not that eager to.

    It really is the “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” or “just don’t take any drugs, duh” of weight loss. Like, you can’t just ignore all the social, systemic issues in our health and food industries, reduce it all to cals in vs cals out, and expect that to work. It’s reductive and unproductive.

    People aren’t having trouble with math or willpower, they’re having trouble with the fact that most (emphasis on “most”) readily available, cheap food is bad for you. Most people in poverty grew up with processed, heavily advertised junk and have literal addictions to this shit.
