Sometimes the author includes images that are just a pun. A better illustration for this article might be a man angrly flinging a newspaper into a trash can.

Does any license slow you down

I certainly comply with software licenses so yes, that does slow me down. As they pointed out this precludes it from appearing in Linux distros and such.

Incidentally, I've gotten into very long and stupid arguments with people about Stable Diffusion's Definitely Not Open Fucking Source license.

“Real” musicians turned their nose up at digital music when it first came out

You got any evidence for that? What do you even mean by "digital music?" That's not a category I think musicians recognize. You may he confusing digital with electric which was not exactly as you're describing it.

Also notable because I don’t think it’s very often that eugenics grievances breach the surface in such an obvious way in a public siskind post

This one comes to mind.. Like EY's recent endeavor it's written as a roleplay so as to be nigh-unreadable by anyone without extreme tolerance for not getting to the fucking point.

I can’t understand people who watch streams of other people playing D&D but I know those are wildly popular.

I suppose people also watch other people play video games which is about the point where I started to feel like a confused out of touch elder.

glowfic enjoyers

A real category?

Seems like a write-only medium.

But then, LitRPG also exists, much to my confusion and dismay.

Ok, I tried giving it a fair shake, and I guess it's got the same problem as every other forum roleplay: it's fun to roleplay, not fun to read someone else's roleplay.

many people I know who got more from HPMOR read it carefully, perhaps stopping after every chapter to think about the goals and motivations of each character and predict what happens next

It's actually kind of an achievement that in the ultra-saturated Isakai genre they've managed to set a new standard in repulsive premises.

Pay no attention to the man behind that curtain. The rate of men behind curtains is actually quite low. Do not doubt the great and powerful Oz.
