WHAT AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND.

might be joever this time for real. trying to download vids with yt-dlp instantly gives a 403 error. the devs say they can't do anything about it because they can't change how youtube run their platform. you gotta refresh all invidious instances a million times before a youtube page loads (i mainly used invidious to read youtube comments). will i have to finally bite the bullet and make a throaway youtube account?

>>28215
Yes I think the days of yt-dlp are joeever, they're seemingly treating all the accounts as bots. What I do these days is I just turn OBS on and let the video run, and go do dishes or laundry or something. It like what boomers did with VCRs and recording shows. It's a slow practice, but it works.

yt-dlp works for me on latest nightly

Also [vid related] for archival purposes

Around the 29 minute mark Peterson criticizes Marx and Engel's for assuming that workers would magically become more productive once they took over.

This actually happened historically, most of the actually effective productivity tricks work places use now were developed by Stakhanovites.

Finished News from Nowhere by William Morris, a supposed classic of utopian literature. I went into this with expectations adjusted to the genre, meaning little tension and lots of lecturing, but this one is exceptionally dull. So the guy visits the world more than a century into the future (starting from 1890) and travels by horse carriage. Technology regressed, so no trains for you, and it's anarcho-communism time.

Mildly funny bit when some character talks about the people of the former ruling class here:
<But my father used to know some of them when they were young; and he said that they were as little like young women as might be: they had hands like bunches of skewers, and wretched little arms like sticks; and waists like hourglasses, and thin lips and peaked noses and pale cheeks; and they were always pretending to be offended at anything you said or did to them. No wonder they bore ugly children, for no one except men like them could be in love with them—poor things!

The rest is so dull. So. Fucking. Dull. Oh and in Super Morris World murderers are neither killed nor jailed nor dropped on an island. And the author is not taking the piss here, but actually thinks the murderers will feel sad about what they did and that's good enough for him!

Allen Moore wrote that comics were once a artform for the people because they where readably available and cheap, now they're so expensive the only people who care are the ones who grew up with them and are now mad that they're no longer made for them. A artform for the working people would need to be affordable for them. Comics are not dead but the audience has become bourgeois while the young working people finds the new artform with more artistic freedom then the last.

I would never forgive this overrated reactionary weak-chinned motherfucker for ruining fantasy forever via choosing the word "race" to describe difference between elves, orcs, dwarfs and hobbits, instead of "kind", "kindred", "ilk" or something other. Now all speculative fiction (no, really, not just fantasy) that deals with multiple sapient species co-existing in the same setting is connected with a real-world race theory/white supremacy, which is absolutely monstrous. You're a fucking linguist, Professor, you SHOULD have known better!

Modern parasitologists recognize that they have not found all human parasites. They estimate that hundreds if not thousands of human parasites will be found in the coming years.
The most deadly human parasites besides top-ranking corporate executives are protozoa, which are single-celled organisms. Some of these tiny creatures (there are over 80,000) have brought humans more misery and death than anything else in history(again, besides CEOs), including wars and famine. The most well known deadly parasitic protozoa is plasmodium, which causes malaria.

Parasites are separated into four main groups: 1) protozoa, which are tiny, one-celled organisms; 2) helminths, or worm parasites, such as tapeworms and pinworms; 3) arthropods, which aren’t parasites themselves, but these insects and spiders are common hosts of parasitic diseases; and 4) top-ranking corporate executives.

Most parasitic infections happen in warm climates or capitalistic societies, such as tropic or subtropic regions or the US healthcare system.

The only parasites are proletarians who leech off of the genius and bravery to endure risk of the bourgeoisie but then demand more than was consensually agreed to in their employment contract.

I bet most parasites aren't actually harmful.
It's only a select few that are.
Same way most bacteria isn't pathogenic

>>23219
It wouldn't be parasitism then. It would be commensalism (neutral) or mutualism (if it benefits you too).

Has Oneyplays fell off. Cause all the new videos are kinda mid to the old videos. The old ding dong and Julian videos are timeless while the new stuff is barely remember-able. They don't even have Zack. And i know he's busy with smiling friends but he's kinda of a big part of Oneyplays. Chris also hasn't made any new animations in a while. Also i know about Bolwbo and i heard it's cancelled but i might be wrong so yeah idk. But it just starting to feel alot more worse. Do you guys also feel like this?

I don't watch their streams, I just see them occasionally and they're usually fun when I do see them.

This is probably a healthier way to engage with them. Let them cook and come back when when the fun has accumulated rather than sitting under the dispenser.

Zach is the soul of Oneyplays. It would be like removing Nick from Cumtown and only having Stav and Adam.

What do you think about class analysis (especially Marxian and Weberian class analysis)? What do you think about Stirnerite Marxism (not to be confused with ego-communism) and post-Marxism? What do you think about DZ Rowan, Alfredo M. Bonanno, Raoul Vaneigem, George Batalle and Jean Baudrillard? And do you think Marx's populism is stupid? What do you think about the concepts of "class interests," "false consciousness" and "cultural hegemony."

Zero build looks interesting though, and some mechanics like vehicles and destructable walls look hella fun. So I dunno. I guess I'm not as interested in Fortnite mainly because of the building looking like jank and the eye-gouging graphics, and also due to the fact that there are other MMO shooters like Launch Royale. But Zero Build and raytracing eliminate at least two of these problems (I don't have a good PC for raytracing though). And I do wonder how satisfying the guns feel in the game, I don't want to play Overwatch 2 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Im making a thread about VNs because there isnt one on the catalogue and i wanna talk about my experience. I just finished danganronpa 2, which im not certain counts as a VN or if it's a point and click murder mystery social deduction game, and i think im pretty confident to say that it presents a pretty interesting moral dilemma. On one hand, the hope faction is pretty clearly a technocratic organization who obsesses over "Ultimates", or people who possess immense talent in a particular field or study, for example the world's best scientist, or the world's best doctor. It is revealed in the story of goodbye despair that before despair took over, hope's peak academy created a method of artificially forcing someone to become extremely talented, which dialectically had the potential to equalize mankind and develop the talents of anyone, which would make the idea of meritocracy, or ruling over others due to better talents or knowledge, completely obsolete. Despair on the other hand spawned as a result of the mass movement of reserve students, malcontents who became disaffected with the idea that people with talent mattered more than the rest, since hope's peak academy was formed to research peoples' talents and how to cultivate them.
I think it would be pretty easy to side with the latter out of frustration, especially if you're talentless like i am, but i think the idea that talent could be forcibly cultivated out of someone who never realized it before would be the "productive forces" argument. Not to mention that junko destroyed civilization, which is dialectically bad.
Your turn to die is a great game too, very similar to danganronpa on a surface level, i finished it a while ago and im glad i played it. Free btw. Anyone got visual novel recommendations? I need a weeb fix.

I played Shinigami no Kiss wa Wakare no Aji a few months back and I'm still processing how I feel about it. The erotic scenes were trash and I mostly clicked through them and only stopping to read if a line of text felt important, but the story itself was interesting. The twist near the end was predictable, but at the same time somewhat beautiful. The ending itself is where I'm confused on how I feel though. On one hand the ending serves as a solid way to tie up the main character's story and makes the resurrection of his childhood friend make sense. At the same time, it feels like it could've been handled better without the use of time travel and instead gave the girl a second chance at life with her new identity she'd already been given in a human form.

My other issue regarding it being an erotic VN is just how horny the sister is for the main character. It feels like she's being a huge bitch while also coming onto the main character at random times and then all of a sudden is like "let's fuck" and all of a sudden the main character is down for it and they make that their whole thing.

Still, the sister route aside I really liked it, enough to be thinking about it months later.

I’ve been reading Subahibi and I’m probably about halfway done I’m towards the end of Looking Glass Insects and I just want to say congrats SKA-DI the h scenes are easily as uncomfortable as Full Metal Daemon Muramasa. I’d say so far a 8/10 I bet if you haven’t read Kant or even Descartes the whole phenomena vs thing in the thing itself distinction would blow your little weeb mind. The mystery seems interesting I’m looking forward to see how it pans out.

I’m also about 12 hours into Utawarerumono and the TRPG gameplay grew on me. Hakuowlo is a great MC (historically progressive bourgeois revolutionary and great manTM), Oboro the homie, and Eruruu is best girl because she’s a BL enjoyer. I heard the sequels are even better but so far 7/10.

I only read Capital in the 21st Century by him, and I don't think I even finished it because of the amount of repetition and redundancy.
Nonetheless, I agree he's an interesting and even useful writer. At the end of the day he's describing the gradual accumulation of wealth and growth of inequality through mainstream economics language, which might not be new to marxists but is an additional tool at the very least.
When talking to people who are not socialists about the world I often find myself referencing him, which is harder to do with marxian economists.

https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/life-is-more-than-an-engineering-problem/
<…Alison Gopnik talks about how one way to “align” artificial intelligence with our goals and values could be the same way we align each new generation of humans, through caregiving.
>I don’t like the phrase “the alignment problem.” It’s not clear to me that it refers to something meaningful—or at least that the phrase refers to something that is new and meaningfully different from the broader problems of how to be a good person and how to build a good society. For example, when corporations behave badly, should we consider that an alignment problem? Most of the conversation around the alignment problem suggests that it’s a technical problem, something that can be addressed by implementing a better algorithm or by solving the right equations. But why, for example, do large corporations behave so much worse than most of the people who work for them? (…) People who talk about aligning AI with human values imagine that if we could somehow solve this programming problem, then everything would be okay. I don’t see how that follows at all.

<Could there be value, though, in treating an AI system as more of a partner—something or someone with whom we develop a relationship—rather than merely as a tool?

>It all depends on what you mean by “relationship.” If you’re a woodworker, you might develop emotional associations with a set of chisels you’ve used for years (…) To respect your colleagues means to pay attention to their preferences and interests and balance them against your own; when they do this to you in return, you have a good relationship. By contrast, your chisel has no preferences; it doesn’t want to be sharp (…) By contrast, if you don’t respect your colleagues, there is a problem beyond the fact that it might make your job harder; you do them harm because you are ignoring their preferences. That’s why we consider it wrong to treat a person like a tool; by acting as if they don’t have preferences, you are dehuPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

i literally can't stop listening to stereolab, mars audiac quintet in particular.

The first and most important understanding all contemporary communists must have is that climate change IS our ally!

And no, NOT because of anything nonsensical like it will increase awareness of the contradictions because they won’t. The human race will not ever overcome false consciousness. The average human is a literal illiterate moron, a subhuman at its core, the proletariat doesn’t exist as a class as every living prole is drowning deep in petit bourgeois consciousness. The absolute dream of most proles is to murder and enslave the majority of their own class. Look at this comment, this is the furthest proles will ever get, they will admit capitalism makes life hellish, and then reject communism anyway, acknowledging Capital must continue its rampant drive, with a few partial tweaks

The proletariat is a pathetic, vile, barely human mass; worthy as such of Marx’s lowly appraisal of the corpulent peasant masses of France; the proletariat is not capable of anything, not even organizing its own thoughts let alone anything else, communism is fully impossible and the proletariat will end when they tear each other’s throats out to make sure Zuck and the rest can escape to their doomsday bunkers.

1. on this I'll agree that there's an element of ageism involved
2. It's the live-and-learn part of a person's life. It's when a person basically has to feel out for themselves how to connect with people. When it goes wrong, it messes them up

>>26674
Methinks the real reason why bad relationships mess up people is because the pre-existing expectations of how relationships are "supposed to go".
Romantic love if we were to really examine it from a detached perspective is probably more selfish and destructive than lust.
Lust is at least easily relieved by rubbing the genitals.
Romance is not .
It's about trapping people into an eternal movie.
It's about trying to recreate your favorite movies and books, willfully ignoring or rejecting your partners for not looking/sounding/acting according to your impressions.

>>26675
You’ve never actually been in love, have you?

That’s not what it’s like. You’re describing just toxic assholes.

>>26711
Well, then most humans are toxic assholes then.
Not all faux pas is caused by willful toxicity.

It can be just due to honest to god rigid impressions.

>>26725
>most humans are toxic assholes
YES.

Recommend me some tech/privacy youtubers/bloggers. I prefer unhinged people, who have extreme opinions on privacy. I enjoy the works of Rob Braxman, the hated one. But I want to see some very deep and dark tech thoughts. Thanks!

it was always the case
normies were told repeatedly to not put their personal shit online, not centralize around internet media run by corps, keep using decentralized protocols like email, self-hosted chat servers, etc instead of all signing up with facebook and google and they said we were being weird nerds. now they're crying about all their data being taken and sold back to them as ads and AI slop.
all of it is thoroughly deserved by every normie. they worked hard to willingly hand over all of there for a few clicks on heart icons. fuck them.

There's really not much to say/vlog about other than get off social media, encrypt your system and self-host where possible

Hey everyone, so I was told it would be for the best to make a new thread and that's what I'll do. I'll upload some updated artwork too and some other stuff that I'm sure you'll like

Old OP:
Sup everyone, for a while I've been working on this comic idea and I would like to share some stuff I've been cooking up for it.

The setting is in Mexico City and the protagonist is a working-class, Nahua girl, living in a working-class neighborhood. This comic will explore issues regarding gentrification, child labor, systemic violence, class struggle, and different kinds of discrimination. Think of it as a social commentary and slice-of-life comic.

Sadly, I'm drawing this on my free time in between work and my studies, so the process is slow, but I'll try to release the first chapter sooner than later.

Here are the character sheets of the three protagonists, I posted them in the previous thread but they are now all complete and updated. Also, a neat drawing I did some time ago as an extra.

Finally, I will try to do the comic both in English and Spanish.

whats wrong with anime?

love the concept and your artstyle is super cute. keep going op this will be good.

btw. you got a website or blog you host your drawings/comic on?

Hello everyone, it's been quite a while, I'm sorry for disappearing. Life is hard, but I'm still trying to work on the comic, even if I'm doing it really slowly

But hey, I bring you something nice! Remember that blonde French girl with a beret full of communist pins? Well, I drew her again! This time with her mom. I guess she's my most popular character, so I'll be adding her in the second chapter of the comic, once I can finish the first on :(

I hope you like this artwork!

>>4901
I do have a bluesky, but I barely use it since my drawing production is very slow so I don't post much, but I can try posting old art and such. I guess I can post some updates of the comic there and here if you guys want. Also thank you for your kind words!

This 1st chapter for new manga came out and it has certainly made a impression on western anime fandom. They are claiming it is racist, xenophobic, etc. And honestly, I can see it, with the characters saying some similar language to said people. But someone also brought up as an anti-west or anti-colonialist themes, with them being against the occupation of their planet. Ultimately, its barley 1 chapter out, so I don't want to judge it just on this

>The whole car scene with the alien getting away with crime is a Japanese right-winger talking point with kurds having access to cars and crashing them, supposed mass crime and gangs, and believing the media is covering for them
Or it's a reference to American soldiers getting away with fatal hit-and-runs in Okinawa which has happened multiple times.
Ultimately none of us can tell what's going on in the mangaka's head, but I guess it's fair to say that if you write a story trying to communicate something (seems to clearly be the case here) but the audience has zero idea of what you're trying to say you probably fucked up somewhere.

Bruh, you really feel for the nostalgia cool-aid.
Bruh, people always sought out things to be mad about.

It's one of the best rhythm games on PC, with great artstyle and music. It's FLOSS so it's blessed by St. iGNUsius and has an amazing modding support as well. What are you waiting for?

I also wanted to recommend the Funkadelix mod which features real vocals and a cool aesthetic but unfortunately it's proprietary. Maybe the devs will release the source code when the full version comes out? At least keep an eye on it. If you have a Twitter acc you can ask the devs directly.

Also recommend other FLOSS rhythm games such as Osu! and Stepmania.

>>39182
>FFN
It's a good game. Last time i playing, i got stuck at spooky month.
>Osu!
I've played it for a bit and found it to be genuinely user hostile. If you don't make an account it simply refuses to let you search the beatmap database or even just save your settings. Then if you just want to use it as a proper .osz kiosk, you need to check the osu user doesn't have file ownership, because IMPORTING DELETES FILES! And no you can't deflect this by saying it's open sores, it has all the signs of a shitapp: saving user data on their servers, frequent updates, deprecating older versions and actively hounding users to make an account.

This song is a banger.

Ranking installments of everyone's favorite transphobic white angloid attempt at writing shonen with antisemitic undertones because my 50 y.o. mom is a Rickman/Snape fan and forces our entire family to rewatch all of the movies each holiday season.

Worst - Prisoner of Azkaban. Really unpopular opinion, but I feel this is the messiest out of the early books, with a generic "believe in yourself to deafeat a monster (dementor)" shonen message told with the help of the atrocious time travel subplot (JKR's worst mistake besides, y'know, becaming a far-right grifter) and untolerable for me at least amount of quidditch padding.

5th place - Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows (ranked as one book because HBP is just a set-up for DH's story, it would have pretty much zero literary value as a standalone book) A dissapointing end to the series. Voldermort fully turns into a cartoon villain and stops being a credible threeat to any minimally adult reader (despite showing signs of being capable of more in GoF and OoF). Also I hate how Voldemort invokes Hitler symbolism despite, if anything, having more in common with Grand Wizard (pun intended) of the Klan. The story becames irredeemably reactionary, with Voldemort being defeated by the mystical "power of love", Dumbledore being venerated as a saint by the narrative (despite there being a fucking perfect set-up to make him a "second main villain"), Hermione accepting the naturality of the House Elves' slavery and Harry becaming a wizarding cop treated as a happy ending.

4th place - Philosopher's Stone. I know it was intended as purely children's book originally, but it still looks intolerably cartoony and cheesy compared to the later parts.

I think goblet of fire really solidifies how shitty Harry is as a protagonist. At no point is he ever on the initiative. Everything happens either around him or to him and all the actual legwork falls on the supporting cast to drag his dumb ass across the proverbial finish line.

>>44919
Harry is a vessel for the ensemble cast. I hated the more plot-ish moments for this reason, tbh.

>>44907
The series started going to shit after the Goblet of Fire, because Voldemort stopped being a cartoon villain that essentially ended every book saying "FOILED AGAIN! BLAST THAT HARRY POTTER AND HIS MEDDLING FRIENDS! I'LL GET YOU NEXT TIME HARRY! NEXT TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME!" because he got resurrected and became a clumsy Hitler allegory instead. After that point, it felt like the books forgot that they're whimsical fairy tales about a magical school and started trying to be serious, which put Rowling a bit out of her element. What's more, she basically set herself up for failure because she essentially began to make the books more and more into a sort of faux political allegory, which meant that she doomed the books to have a shitty ending because her own politics wouldn't allow for anything that would approach a good ending.

The best moment in the entire franchise was when in Fantastic Beats 2 Grindelwald revealed that another World War was imminent and that it was the Wizard's responsibility to reveal the secret to prevent it. In this moment Grindelwald actually became for a brief moment a somewhat cool and serious villain, an not basically just gay Voldemort 2. Two bad they never seriously followed up on that motif and went with some shitty convoluted electoralist story instead, again.

The true synthesis between

-wizards stay in hiding and fight the supremacists

and

-wizards reveal their existence and oppress the humans

would have obviously been:

-Wizards reveal their existence and use their powers for the good of society abolishing the present state of things to live with humans in harmony or whatever.

But no the noble lie needs to persist because le system works liberalism something.

>>44907
>antisemitic undertones
When the first thing that comes to your mind when thinking about money is grubby goblin bankiers with gigantic hook noses, then thats not an undertone lmao
