Rule 4: get fucked by better and cheaper products (Unreal/Godot)
Rule 5: make an obituary presentation on what went wrong (hint: it's always management)

That is an organizational problem because my country next to it has all those things at just about every train stop (Switzerland).

Dogma is a really good movie with a Christian theme. Good Omens is a great series with Christian themes though it's more atheist in it's message than Dogma.

There's a ton of pictures on there but it seems like there's just a wall, no possibility of registering or upload so I'm wondering how 2 million pictures came on there. This can't all be done manually by a single guy. How are pics getting on there?

Ironic that Tate is a millenial. Also generations aren't like monolithic blocks of culture. The reason Tate is popular is because literally everyone is failing young disenfranchised men. Sure we get women as heroes now (good ones and very prominent bad ones ... ahem WW84)
The reason we get a backsliding is because (imo) we focus on elevating women too much. It is so so devastating for young men that just get nothing. No recognition, no support and no opportunities. Couple that with the fact that until men hit their mid to late 20s the dating power dynamic is asymmetricly shifted towards women. And you get hammered by the media "women support here, women support there" and if any young teen dares to ask "well what about us boys?" They just get shushed, that it's not their place, male privilege etc. They don't see that "privilege" everyone else speaks of. So you just get mounting aggression because no one is confirming their struggles. And eventually it ferments and turns to hate and then you can serve them whatever lies you want, if you give them the prospect of control over their life they will eat it up. And that's what Tate did. He promised them power and success.

I really got a severe case of the Baader-Meinhof-complex. Like a month ago I heard of the demon core for the first time. And now it seems like I see it referenced everywhere. Atleast 10 times randomly in the past month.

Still more progressive than Switzerland to this day. They have normalized 42.5h workweek. You need to work 8.5 hours to be considered a fulltime employee.

Google is also pretty much in crisis. Since the whole Reddit debacle their SEO infested spam results pages got even more exposed. Add to that, that everyone is trying to lock their page down because google is caching a shitton of content which nets the page owners exactly 0 clicks or they even have to pay google for their amp caching.

I would like to try building a search index for this instance (maybe others) and as such would like to crawl the site with automated spiders. Now with the shutdown of the reddit API I expect the site to come under quite substantially load and also I would ofc try to not spam the site with too many requests as to not get banned or blocked, due to looking like a DOS attack. Could anyone provide some information on this?

It's actually voice technique for the most part. Traditional old microphones weren't as good at recording so actors were specially trained to speak and articulate well to get past the interference and background noise since filtering wasn't really done. As microphones and technological advances improved so did the microphones and the need for special articulation became less and less until somewhere in the 70s or 80s the culture in film shifted to normal voices to have better immersion between the audience and the movie scene. And it just went from there. Nowadays our microphones are so good that even whispered conversations in intimate scenes can be well recorded. So the actors basically just use their everyday voice or try to emulate a real accent which are often slurred.

The instance at exploding-heads.com got defederated from by a lot of instances and among them the largest one lemmy.world
It happened due to them allowing hatespeech like "tranny faggot". Top post now is complaining about how the rest is sensitive libs and in the same breath call "Joe Biden is a pedo". They're throwing a tantrum about how they're getting cancelled because they can't smell the shit under their own shoe.
