This one in particular is owned by the public, meaning the Berlin state government can control who is on the board and appoints the advisory committee.
So, yes, it is essentially state controlled.
So, what exactly does Minecraft (one of the primary games mentioned in the lawsuit) do to cause this? Because that seems like a major outlier compared to the other listed games.
It would help if the lawsuit was actually focused on lootboxes, microtransactions, and the like as harmful gambling.
But it doesn’t. The lawsuit claims video games themselves being good creates an addiction.
I mean, individual IDF soldiers have been uploading this sort of thing to their social media the whole time. They seem perfectly happy and proud of such footage.
The dumb part is certain people are now trying to bring up the cases of rape that did happen as some sort of gotcha to claim the NYT report was accurate (see the Reddit /r/news thread about the UN envoy statement right now).
When that wasn’t the issue with Anat Schwartz’ article in the first place. The claim was never that no instances of rape happened, we know they did, there’s video of it. The issue was her claim that sexual violence was an explicit part of Hamas’ strategy and goal on October 7th, which was completely unsubstantiated by her and the others involved. They, in fact, couldn’t find any evidence of the sort to back up the claim, but still reported the claim as accurate anyways.
Hamas is an evil terrorist group, but that doesn’t mean we should just open-faced accept pretty obvious propaganda and lies about them. The truth matters, especially in conflicts like this.
But…they don’t? Their mainline games are always a few years apart (with the exception of Bloodborne, which they had a separate team doing concurrently).
Unless you’re referring to the other games they publish that no one really knows about or comments on? I don’t think Metal Wolf Chaos XD, Déraciné, or Monster Hunter Diary: Poka Poka Airou Village DX should really factor into the discussion.
It’s massively important in the sciences, both for computing purposes and theoretical design and investigation purposes.
AI is completely revolutionizing genetics research and subjects like biochemistry and pharmacology, because it’s able to extrapolate from already identified genes and compounds and find new ones or identify the purposes of genes just from their sequence structure.
It’s made processes that would take weeks or months just to identify a single new component to something that takes days or hours.
I can still perfectly see this comment, which is sitting at a +20/-2.
It’s weird that I have to inform you on how Lemmy/Kbin comment sections work, but when they get long enough, multiple pages of comments are made. They aren’t all viewable on the same page.
Look for the second (or more) page buttons at the bottom. It might blow your mind.
You’re looking for a top level comment by Binthinkin, by the way.
I mean, the most straightforward way that would have the best outcome is if all domestic abuse claims are treated as credible and investigated equally. The current issue with how domestic abuse victims that are men are treated, which itself is rather tied into the long-term stereotypically viewpoint on men that the bad parts of the MRA groups have perpetuated, is the idea that men can’t be abused, raped, or anything like that.
Changing that perception socially is the key to better treatment and outcomes being available, for organizations like what Silverman made to be taken seriously.
One of the top comments is all about calling feminists “shitbags”, as just one example.
Yeah, I’m glad to know about it. I just hate that this might be a further example of Silverman’s life and work being taken advantage of by the bad parts of the men’s rights movement.
See, you’re proving my point. This thread should be about men’s rights issues and focusing on improving treatment and options, like the facility that Silverman setup. But y’all instead are trying to make the subject matter about how all women are bad.
Hmm, now I have concerns after watching this thread unfold. OP created their account 2 days ago and this thread is the only thing they’ve posted. They haven’t even made any comments here or elsewhere.
And, different from the beginning, this thread is quickly becoming just the usual whinging from the bigoted MRA types that hate all women.
This thread feels like it was a setup.
It’s really sad the way he was treated and extra aggravating that the bigoted side of the men’s rights movement has tried to take advantage of his death for themselves rather than to actually progress anything involving men’s rights issues.
On that note, I’m going to go ahead and remove the quote sentence from the bigoted and extremely misogynistic A Voice For Men publication in the Legacy section. It’s not even referenced anyways.
There’s a reason why a bunch of poor people in inland Florida, which would be becoming close to beach front property within the century, are being evicted and bought out by rich people and companies.
Convenience is paramount. It’s why the in-app purchases that are most likely to be bought in games by the most people (not counting whales) are ones that make the game experience more convenient, rather than just giving special currency.
I wonder how ad view counts are affected when you actively drive away your hard core content posting audience? Hmm…
If only we had gotten Skyrim in space.
pats your head It’s okay, I know reading comprehension is difficult for some people.
