I organized pen and paper RPG conventions back when D&D 4 came out. We banned D20 based games even then as a boycott of WotC.

FreeBSD of course.

I read posts just like yours ten years ago.

Lots of Indie game developers actually don’t make enough to live off.

Developers need to eat and pay rent.

Lots of programmers are autists and dont like new information.

Most pages don’t need dynamic loading.

Better than continue building something useless.

The best new use of woke is the woke right.

The author James Lindsay has defined it in similar terms, as “a victimhood-based identity politics” whose “victim groups are whites, Christians, men, and straight people”. He argues that the movement is “roughly intersectional” insofar as it is obsessed with identity politics and a grievance relating to anti-white racism. “Like their counterparts on the Woke Left,” Lindsay writes, “the Woke Right have accepted as fact that there’s a conspiracy against people like them and that their only real hope is to lean into the identity grouping and advocate for collective power under that heading”. In these terms, the “woke right” is a kind of ideological doppelgänger, whose members exhibit the same precisionist and absolutist tendencies of their leftist counterparts.

Pierce Morgan uses it more and more often against right wingers to great effect.

If you really want to make a man’s day, compliment them on their dick.

Woke is now a synonym for Social Justice warrior.

A person or movement prioritizing moralizing outrage about minor grievances over actual effective societal change.

As my half Nigerian cousin likes to say on issues like white people wearing dreadlocks: “That’s something only white privileged women care about.”

YouTube supports multiple audio tracks and multiple language subtitles. Same for Netflix and pretty much all major streaming platforms.

Is it that long ago already? I thought they had kept it around. Thank you for updating me.

We felt poorer, so economists should be lynched!

The contrast between people’s experiences in their everyday lives and what politicians or experts say is important.

If the economy is supposedly doing great but I can afford less and less and my life gets worse, that’s a contradiction.

The USA is moving more to something like the gilded age with more wealth disparity, more suffering for the poor, more violence.

The anti-intellectualism and anti-elitism of the cultural revolution was far more extreme. You are right that there are some similar ideas brewing.

When the political and economic system is no longer delivering for the population, it will turn against the (perceived) leaders. Trump and the right spins this very well by directing the anger against „woke“ liberal academics, foreigners, and away from the billionaires.

The „woke“ elites are also in crisis. The Democratic Party is in shambles.

often people know that, for example, elections are fraudulent, but they are too scared to say anything

People might vaguely understand that elections don’t produce good outcomes or have systemic bias. That’s then condensed to „elections are rigged“, regardless of the facts and details.

Most people know little about most things. It’s difficult to even have good fundamentals about most things in our complex world. So people will defer to their personal experience and information seeped into their minds by osmosis/exposure.

Things like an economy or political system are extremely complex already and not fully understood even by experts.

Samsung has it own OS on some phones.

Skill issue. I practiced and was able to hit 38-39 °C consistently.

Do you have more details?
