Just your typical internet guy with questionable humor
Point 1 definitely has some 50+ countries in it, but point 2 almost immediately leads to Iran, who suffered a coup in the 1950s because the then president wanted to nationalize the oil reserves.
Point 3 is the rise of Saddam. Point 4 is the Iran-Iraq war of the 1980s and the Iran-Contra kerfuffle. Point 5 is the two invasions of Iraq by the USA, 1991 and 2003, the latter leading directly to point 6.
misskey/sharkey are also very heavy on the client side due to excessive javascript. Great looks on the browser, tho
Probably too many old fart executives that “know better”, plus directors or writers with a pet project that have to drop it and work on a “stupid game movie”
Also Uwe (suck my) Boll for tax reduction
Just yesterday I saw a post on lemmy that said that turkish xitter users were migrating to bluesky. Didn’t bother opening to see the comments or read it. Seeing this now, all I can think is “well, what did they expect?”
I’ve heard people complain a lot about its resource usage on the server side, that the advantages of it running on elixir are moot unless the instance has over 1k people. The web UI leaves a lot to be desired, true, but at least it’s not such a client-side resource hog/browser crasher as misskey/sharkey
Last panel has strong Carl vibes
I feel like a celebrity now 🤩
Hard to belle-ieve
There’s quite a discussion about that further elsewhere in this thread. To me, the combination of vector-like thick lines with that background color, the characters having such mute expressions and there not being one actual optimist.
Others also pointed to the “weirdness” that is the lines of the characters’ arms becoming part of the table, which I didn’t notice at first.
Perhaps more importantly, it does not look like the “author” has “zero drawing skill”, but actually knows how to make vector art, even if relatively simple. That makes the problems more glaring
I’ve been exposed! 🤖
I’ve always loved the pose the dude on the back does
Sounds like you’re walking a metaphorical minefield
Not OP, but let’s make this better:
PS: i doubt anyone here would honestly say “damn, that’s beyond my skill”, which goes to show that “not everyone can draw” is a bullshit argument for using AI to make comics
Lawful good: absolutely nothing
Neutral good: Pascal
Chaotic neutral: Python
Chaotic Evil: Brainfuck
Like I never heard a programmer bemoan that they do all this work and it just vanishes into a void where nobody interacts with it
Where I work, there are at least 5 legacy systems that have been “finished” but abandoned before being used at all because of internal politics, as in, the fucker that moved heaven and hell to make the system NOW got fired the day after it was ready and the area that was supposed to use it didn’t want to.
We’re as cooked as artists (when asked to do shit jobs for non paying customers)
Do comments count as posts? Because losing all comments from an instance would probably explain such a huge dip
Do you go to the gym, or do pushups frequently? If you do, you should manage to do that thing with the pectorals after a while
Good relation with family
What about committing crimes facilitated by facebook, instagram, tiktok? Those fraudsters (fake ads for high paying jobs, famous people peddling snake oil, etc) rarely get caught.
