That's hardly a reason to get rid of it or replace it. Clearly people are benefitting from it and it's evident if you look at your tax return. If anything, the fact that people don't know about the return is a failure in marketing. So sure, there are maybe some improvements to make.

But really, no matter what carbon scheme you put in place, the cons will find a way to complain about it. That's not a failure of the carbon tax. That's just how the conservatives operate.

I'd love to see the logic of the cons trying to explain why a foreign agency is spending so much effort to promote their candidate. Clearly Putin is a true Canadian patriot.

That's OK. I've already removed Netflix

Looks like it's out of beta.

Don't be biased except for these biases.

From the article:

Within the restricted zones are hundreds of oil and gas facilities. One open-pit coal mine in the Rockies is before the provincial regulator and the expansion of another has already been approved. Much of the area has been extensively logged.

Lol, after both steal every image on the internet.

No wonder the images look similar.

Death From Above, by ACTORS (actors.bandcamp.com)

I'm starting to get into this band and I'm liking them so far!

It doesn't really bother me, but like you I am bored of it and I generally ignore it, or block communities if I'm seeing too much of it.

It is really cool that the models can generate fairly detailed images, but they're all so similar and... boring. I once saw someone describe it like corporate art. It just tries to imitate something popular in a very mediocre way. You can keep re-training it, but it can still only imitate.

Still, if people are into it then that's ok too. I have used it at work on occasion to create stupid little icons for internal tools I've built, so I guess there's some little bit of utility.

My guess is that it'll be used for a while for cheap and low effort branding, but soon companies will want to hire real artists again to differentiate themselves from the ML spam.

Beatings will continue until morale improves

In honor of Skinny Puppy's final tour, here's a video that's apparently from one of their earlier tours.

One of my favourite bands!

STONEFIST, by HEALTH (youwillloveeachother.bandcamp.com)

I love the way HEALTH mixes melodic vocals with some cool noise.

Came here to say exactly this.

I'd trust the piracy sites more actually. We don't voluntarily give them our credit card and address.

Spike Hellis (spikehellis.bandcamp.com)

I like this album. I've heard they put on a really good live show too.

It's a total guess, but my theory is that people on the right are tolerant of enshittification and may even find it appealing, while the rest of us just leave. This seems to be the case with Twitter, so maybe Reddit is following?

The Steam Deck is the full package that not only integrates the hardware and software, but is also an open system. Slapping a some inputs together onto a windows PC just isn't the same thing.

Does anyone know if the grievance is legitimate?

I just got the game and I'm not familiar with the history here, but I am using the original mod in question. I did verify the files as well and they are indeed the same.

I'm not even sure how to see if Donation Points are enabled on a particular mod or author's account.

I don't mind mod authors getting some kickback if that's an option, but taking someone else's work is rather poor.

Edit: Looks like this mod was now taken down.

Edit: There's a forum post from the author of the mod in question that mentions talking to the Nexus staff.

Hopefully this was all just a bit of unnecessary drama.

This was posted on Hacker News but I thought it was a really cool article explaining how Elliptical Curve Cryptography works.
