If only the “tax the rich” petition had such a great villain to reinvigorate interest, but I take what I can get.

AwesomeLowlander, (edited )

Elon, Trump, and the rest of the fucking pantheon weren’t enough to invigorate interest, I don’t who is.

Edit: how the duck is this a controversial statement

mnemonicmonkeys,

This is an EU petition, not the US.

Doomers coming out in force today

???

What does the US have to do with anything I said?

RogueBanana,

There are no billionaires in EU, didn’t you know that?

zerofk,

There were, but we ate them.

If only.

mnemonicmonkeys,

Nothing, but that doesn’t stop people with Americabrain from making terrible comments here.

The EU has a record of actually passing pro-consumer legislation such as the GDPR and forcing companies to use standardized cables. Claiming that nothing is going to happen because of lobbying doesn’t hold up nearly as well as it does in the US

Many countries in the EU already tax the rich. I mean, it could be better. It could be a lot better, and we still have right-wing types that try to destroy that positive element within the EU.

But of all the countries that would benefit the most from heavily taxing the rich, it would be the US. And since the US has made itself the centre of all the world’s attention, and the whole world still uses the USD as the primary exchange currency, anything that would shake up the economy of the US would shake up the economy of the world.

Lazhward,

My thoughts exactly, I find it very disheartening.

But how many of these have worked at Blizzard?

Korhaka,

Why would that matter? EU is generally not as shit as the US on consumer protection

Yeah, I’d like to think people would focus on other things now that SKG picked up the pace but he’ll most likely be brought up for a long time regardless on what happens with the campaign in the future - even if just as a punching bag for people to feel superior about.

TheEighthDoctor,

Dude I could code at Blizzard in a smart fridge

MurrayL,

This isn’t about you, America.

JoShmoe,

I genuinely can’t think of any way to address your level of immaturity. Here’s your reality check. I didn’t vote for the guy, I don’t like him. You’ve been checked kid.

TheTrueColonel,

And StopKillingGames has nothing directly to do with America. It’s a European/UK petition. At least understand what the topic is about before bringing up unrelated things.

Why? Are you guys trying to figure out if there is any places or people left you can colonize and massacre?

Lol, thanks for sending over your best and brightest!

I’ve recently gotten back into (indie) game dev and made my multiplayer game with Stop Killing Games in mind. When you connect to the game, if the server is down, you get a one-click solution to run the server locally and play single player instead.

This setup actually helped speed up development too, since now I don’t need to run both the server and client when making (most) changes :)

Baggie,

You’re doing gods work my dude

There is no reason to play anything on Nintendo systems other than Bassin’s Black Bass with Hank Parker for SNES. This is the single greatest fishing game ever created, and still holds the #1 spot even today. Not to be confused with Super Black Bass, which is the inferior earlier version of this game. Super Black Bass is for Mormons.

When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought this was some DOS racing game.

I don’t remember the N64 version having a semi-realistic looking map. But it’s been over 20 years since I played it at my friend’s place.

We should vote out any EU parliament member who doesn’t vote ay on that lae

Lobbying against ‘SKG’ will be massive.

As always - evey problem comes from people voting on conservative and not social-democrats or social-liberals

Every other parties are bullshit worth zero

I’m pretty sure this image was AI generated. Is nobody going to lose their mind about that like everywhere else?

iAmTheTot,

What makes you think it is?

    That’s not very helpful.

    PleaseLetMeOut,

    Zoomed to the max Firefox will allow (500%). Not seeing anything other than some film grain with JPEG compression artifacts.

    AI content usually starts to look more mosaic (random shapes clumped together) as you zoom, not grainy/compressed.

    Zahille7,

    Have you never seen Inglorious Basterds?

    stoicmaverick,

    Mostly assumption. Granted it’s a pretty good example, but I can’t imagine where this image would have otherwise come from, which means that it’s either generated, or someone spent a reasonable amount of time doing an expert level photo edit from a movie still frame just to make this meme.

    Zahille7,

    People have done more for less on the internet.

    Psythik, (edited )

    It’s a screenshot from Inglourious Basterds [sic] with the Nintendo logo Photoshopped in.

    You shouldn’t claim that something is AI, if you can’t even tell a AI apart from a real image. Work on your identification skills.

    AwesomeLowlander, (edited )

    It’s been shown in controlled studies that AI ‘identification skills’ are as effective as flipping a coin. People just don’t realise when they see the good images, and pride themselves on noticing the crappy ones.

    Edit: Ah, you’re one of those people who downvote anything they dislike hearing without bothering to say a word. Here’s the one of the studies I mentioned: nexcess.net/…/humans-struggle-to-spot-ai-generate…

    stoicmaverick,

    So I asked OP instead of flinging vaguely articulated insults based on assumptions. He (they?) said he’s not 100% sure based on the source, but “possibly AI edits” based on “the too perfect uniform texture I usually associate with AI”. So…

    Zahille7,

    Is this your first week on the internet?

    Do you not realize that memes of movies/TV shows have been made since hobby photo editing has been a thing? Do you not remember all the ridiculous bullshit memes from the mid 2000s-early 2010s where like half of them were just stills from some show or movie with a different caption to try to make it funny?

    @Couldbealeotard@lemmy.world avatar

    “I can’t possibly think of where this image, of a famous movie actor in a period costume, could have come from, therefore it’s AI”

    stoicmaverick,

    Period costume? From the terrible NINTENDO Wars of '04?

    leftzero,

    From world war II (photoshopped).

    I can’t find the exact original image, but this appears to be an image of actor Christoph Waltz portraying Standartenführer Hans Landa in Quentin Tarantino’s film Inglourious Basterds, photoshopped to make fun of Nintendo’s notorious asshattery.

    https://i.ytimg.com/vi/MHcEixj0Akw/maxresdefault.jpg

    stoicmaverick,

    Ya, I got that much. I’ve seen the movie. I appreciate the thorough explanation though. I’m just saying that I think that the edit were done with/by an AI photo editor and people are losing their entire minds at the very insinuation.

    Darth_Lemmy,

    get a grip my guy geez

    ImplyingImplications,

    There seems to be a hierarchy of outrage. “Nintendo bad” > “AI slop”
