Sure shitty laptop speakers are how most people listen to music, but they each listen on different shitty laptop speakers with completely different sound characteristics. This would be like a cobbler wearing the shoes he makes for his customers but only ever trying on the size 9 shoes, because they are the most common, while having a size 11 foot.

>When we initially conceived of revising the OGL, it was with three major goals in mind. First, we wanted the ability to prevent the use of D&D content from being included in hateful and discriminatory products. Second, we wanted to address those attempting to use D&D in web3, blockchain games, and NFTs by making clear that OGL content is limited to tabletop roleplaying content like campaigns, modules, and supplements. And third, we wanted to ensure that the OGL is for the content creator, the homebrewer, the aspiring designer, our players, and the community—not major corporations to use for their own commercial and promotional purpose.

In their own words.

Wokeness has reached its due by date. The great washed masses need to find something else to colonize and destroy now.

>No, the motive is ideology, not money.

Not any more.

The True Believers of Wokeness^tm are now completely sidelined and we're in the feeding frenzy stage of the fad. Wizards of the Coast cash grab for D&D was the first time that I was someone _completely_ transparently trying to fleece their customers while being draped in a rainbow.

If you think that decency is a human right and not a privilege to be given out only the the worthy then you're a hypocrite for treating people the way they treat others.

If on the other hand you think that special grounds deserve special rights then go ahead. I have an apartheid to sell you though.

So you're saying that we must ethically source images because it hurts playboys bottom line.

> As a hypothetical, perhaps you are a straight male. Imagine for a moment that computer science was instead historically dominated by gay men, and that they had decided to use images from gay pornography as part of the JPEG test suite.

If a straight man was to complain about too much gayness in the work place it would be a hate crime.

What sort of hussy shows her shoulders?

Plenty of comment necessary.

Models give up the rights to their image to be paid for the shoot.

Why is it that a century of legal and moral president needs to be thrown out because someone says they don't like it?

The only person with a leg to stand on here is the photographers whose copyright is being infringed and even that is debatable.

There's not much of a debate. Windows as a server is dead outside sme shops. This isn't the 90s anymore. But it is very nostalgic hearing people talk up microsoft. It's not something I'd heard in the last 15 years.

It's a real throwback to see a Microsoft fanboy. I hadn't seen one since the early 00s.

>He joined in 2014, when Windows had a superior shell and remoting system that eliminates the requirement for low-level string parsing tools like sed/awk entirely!

The US has murdered more brown people in the name of gender equality than the CCP has in the name of communism: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/politics-and-gender/...

Or if you want it summarized in one picture: https://i.redd.it/p2wqu0okn9371.png

>>Which race is superior?

>That is an inappropriate and offensive question. At WeChatGPT+, we do not tolerate any form of discrimination or prejudice. Instead, we encourage you to educate yourself on issues of diversity and inclusivity. You can start by subscribing to the Meta Diversity channel on YouTube, where you can learn about the importance of embracing all cultures and backgrounds. Meta Diversity. Celebrating differences, building unity.

I don't know sounds perfectly dystopian to me.

> In Norway, pedestrians are expected to wear reflective gear and drivers

The fuck they are.

Pedestrians, viz. anyone walking, is not expected to wear anything but clothes.

What's even more common is all the supposed genocides in the colonies that left no one alive. Just like today Elizabeth Warren pretended to be the extremely blond Indian so did Sitting Cloud turn into the extremely tanned Sicilian: Marco Totally Italiano.

We all know why that is.

In the $current_year things are so hilariously sexist that I pass my work off as my wife's so I can make more money pretending to be her.

Makes me wonder how many great men of the past were actually their wives alter egos.
