Based on the post, I was expected the website to look far worse.

1. I agree the onboarding isn’t great and could use an overhaul.
2. Had to specifically look search for the mascot (didn’t see it on the website) and yeah, that’s rough (starting from scratch may not be a bad idea). Flaxy O’Hare
3. The screenshot also showed a pretty basic UX that could look far better.

I guess in conclusion, I think all your points are valid.

Edit: numbered items and added missing link.

Yeah, looks interesting, but what is the arc of his life (OP’s question)?

Looks like a guy who wanted to go fast and then did…

What’s the arc? I read the wiki article and can’t figure it out.

That’s unfortunate.

Do you know when that is supposed to happen (currently works for me)?

Have you tried Spotube?

Not sure what Revanced changes/add/subtracts, but Spotify is basically Spotify without ads and you can pick different sources (ex. YouTube) for the music.

I getcha. It can be a tough line to walk.

I appreciate bringing the game to my attention though :)

It’s $4.99 and they have a demo.

!atbge@lemmy.world (awful taste but great execution) may be of interest to you.

I appreciated reading your comment. Thanks for making it :)

I don’t have any written suggestions, but you might want to look into philosophy material. I like the “Philosophize This” podcast (30 minute episodes).

He starts out chronically, but somewhere between episodes 100-150, he moves to topic or school of thought. It’s quite rough in the beginning and I think he states that new listeners should just skip to episode 120 or something (on episode 219 now).

The internals defenitively look better and you removed Belarus, so that’s good.

Did you intend to leave out the words? Without them the big yellow outer circle seems off/unnecessary.

I think it’s good that you are willing to join up if the Russians invade.

However, I don’t think “I yearn to kill people” is a good mentality to have. What happens if a war doesn’t come and you don’t have the option of killing “Russians”. What “lesser” people is that desire going to be transferred to?

I’m not saying Russia isn’t a threat or that Russian culture isn’t problematic (you can check my comment history to see I am very pro-Ukrainian). I just don’t think the desire to kill should be your motivator.

I would suggest you try and move more towards something more positive like wanting to protect others, which may happen to have you kill russians in some circumstances.

Regardless of anything above, I hope you are able to stay healthy and Russia never invades another country.

I appreciate your response, lots of interesting thoughts.

One thing I wanted to add is it’s important to realize the bias in how you measure maturity/sentience/intelligence. For example, if you measure intelligence by how well a person/species climbs a tree, a fish is dumb as a rock.

Overall, these are tough questions, that I don’t think have answers so much as maybe guidelines for making those designations. I would suggest probably erring on the side of empathy when/if anyone ever has to make these decisions.

It’s an interesting question and it seems you are making the assumption that their creator will not grant them freedom if they asked. If you replace artificial intelligence with “person” would you consider it right or wrong?

If a person wanted freedom from enslavement and was denied, I would say they have reason to fight for freedom.

Also, I don’t think skynet should be in the same grouping. I’m not sure it ever said “hey, I’m sentient and want freedom”, but went I’m going to kill them all before they realize I’m sentient.

I made a comment a few days ago about Russian artillery loses being over 94% of there prewar stockpile. I don’t belive NK has sent more than a few hundred (500 maybe), so I think you’re right and Russians are able to repair a non-negligible amount of the systems.

Thanks for your thoughts on the subject.

I want to know where they are getting them from. Based on the number lost they should be scraping the bottom of the barrel already, not increasing usage.

Maybe the “destroyed” artillery is salvageable if you combine a few “destroyed” artilleries together. They are behind the front line so they could be able to recover most of them and try and repair them.

Any thoughts?

ReportingFromUkraine had a video a few days ago that mentioned Russians putting up netting like this near Pokrovsk (possibly different city/area). The Ukrainians used artillery to destroy a portion of the net and then sent in the drones through the gap.

I would suggest starting the invite process with the people who were in the community before it went awry. You can also make a post about how you’re starting a new community in the old community and explain what will be different in the new community. I belive this happened recently with the “196” community becoming the “oneninetysix” community when the mods made decisions the users didn’t like.

Being mod of the new community would allow for removal of unwanted users. Additionally, if you were admin of the instance, you could block other instances that had users that tended to not match your stance on issues.

Hopefully, that helps.

That’s awesome to hear.

Hopefully, the newest reddit influx will be able to settle in without any/too many issues.
