I'm fine with asexuals and representation. But currently it feels like 99% of media is catering to either asexuals or homosexuals.
And I bring up violence to point out the double standard. When it comes to nudity people scrutinize if it's relevant to the plot - but don't tend to do that with violence or clunky moral preaching.
I don't want porn. I want art to stop awkwardly excluding a major part of life.
"Everyone is beautiful and no one is horny." It's like movies these days are all set in this weird Twilight Zone world where sexuality just isn't a thing. I find this far creepier than the gratuitous sex scenes of the 80s.
Apparently I'm the only one that likes being titillated by movies. I don't get the "it adds nothing to the plot" complaint. Tons of movies have action scenes and gratuitous violence that add nothing to the plot, yet i don't see complaints about that. 90% of John Wick is gratuitous violence that added nothing to the plot, but I still love it.
I think this says more about American prudishness and people's unhealthy attitudes towards sex than anything.
Bunch of unnecessary death? Cool and fun! An unnecessary titty? Awkward and gratuitous.
Fuck all of you. I want more nudity and sex in my movies and the comparative lack of it compared to the 80s and 90s feels like we're going out of our way to exclude a huge part of life from art because it makes the prudes out there uncomfortable. But those same people are happy to watch nameless dudes get creatively and graphically killed for half a movie's run time.
I want more gratuitous sex and less gratuitous moral pandering
The day I hear complaints about the lack of men in primary education and the lack of women I coal mining, then I'll give a shit about the lack of women in tech. I don't understand why society is deciding tech is sexist but the others are just natural preference.
With Home Assistant and locally controlled devices there's no issues whatsoever. Completely locally controlled and solid as a rock ime.
Always bugged the shit out of me that he actually says "mother freaking" in that scene
Completely ruined my suspension of disbelief and I still cringe when remembering it.
"As far as you are concerned"
Correction: "as far as anyone else is concerned."
Consciousness IS continuity. If you are disentigrated and a perfect clone pops up somewhere to replace you... you died. Your current stream of consciousness ended and a perfect copy replaced you.
As far as all external observers are concerned it's still you. But from your own perspective? Well you won't have one anymore, you'll be dead.
Yes we do. Carbon tax.
Agreed, but I have a feeling I'll be using Jellyfin in a few years.
No shit it's not private. This is the digital equivalent of shouting on a soapbox in public and then getting pissed if someone records or remembers it.
I tried to find a server that isn't blocking anyone, and hasn't been defederated by any of the big servers.
I want to avoid an echo-chamber and have access to everything on the fediverse, including stuff I find distateful. If anything really bothers me I will block the community/instance myself, I don't want others making that choice for me.
Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of folks out there just searching for an excuse to clutch their pearls, rile up a mob, and defederate anything and everything that offends them.
I don't want to circlejerk in a safe space echo chamber, I want to see both the yin and the yang of humanity. I want that wild west feeling of the internet of old
It's been satisfying watching my configuration.yaml file shrink over the years as more and more things get handled by the UI.
