very few localities are directly downstream of discourse. touching grass and talking to normal people makes you realize that 99% of people in your community are 5-10 years behind what is going on.
they're more directly downstream of the effects of tech and politics, but not the information

broke: trolling is making the internet worse and is ruining discourse
woke: trolling is a form of discourse and is often a very fair response to conversations that deserve very little more than ridicule and disinterest
reminder: not every topic of conversation is deserving of debate or air time.

it really is incredible how intuitive Blender is as a software. I am functionally a 3D modeling idiot when it comes to Blender and I was able to whip up this planter model for a game I'm working on in less than 10 minutes.

game dev is awesome (for me) because it takes me back to square 0.

you have to wonder just how innovative and industrious the US economy is when the primary weapon they use in the global market is less "innovation" and more "we will use the power of the USD as a global currency to bludgeon you to death while we whine about how unfair your trade practices are"

hey so if your decentralized currency's prices are all highly dependent on the whims of The United States President

or is it just "USD but with more gambling"

re-skinned ScrollWise to use a sidebar and I like the UI/UX a lot more, even in its currently vibe-designed form.
you can now add/remove tweets and posts from the sidebar that are relevant to the prompt and automatically inject that content into your prompt.
still aiming for a mid-November launch!

since we're re-upping the Trade War with China again, it's important to note that CN's exports are _increasing_ while the US is tanking its relationship with CN and several of its allies.
