Agreed - unfortunately i found the writing pretty average. Dialog is incredibly bland in season 2 and 3. Hoping it’ll be better than lost is laughable. I find Lost so much better than From, both in concept and storytelling.

I can sympathise, but it’s interesting as one of the only books to depict a truly terrible person being summoned to a fantasy world. IMO it has quite the slow burn character arc over the series.
2deckto World News•Millions of children and teens lose access to accounts as Australia’s world-first social media ban beginsEnglish6·2 months agoThe solution is education not bans. This is crazy. Regulating social media access has some major privacy concerns, will make parents more complacent and will only cause kids to seek other more dubious means of communicating. It also places a major wall in front of the development of new social media platforms.

Pushing this regulation is not the solution. Does more damage and will only make parents more complacent.

The key for any successful politically and economically equalized system… Is circular oversight. Committees arranged to observe and contribute to each others decision making. Shared and necessarily equal responsibilities.
You actually have an insane person leading your country. What are you doing.
Leela: Uh, Professor, are we even allowed in the Forbidden Zone?
Prof. Farnsworth: Why, of course! It’s just a name! Like the Death Zone or the Zone of No Return. All the zones have names like that in the Galaxy of Terror!
Nuke it from orbit… It’s the only way to be sure.
2deckto The Cool Side of the Pillow•How do you escape someone being cringe af without hurting their feelings?English3·4 months agoIt sucks to feel responsible for someone elses feelings, but it doesnt sound like they’re that sensitive. I’d just be sure to share that it’s your feelings that cause you to not join and not their actions. Don’t shame if you can help it. Things are only cringe if you think they’re cringe and this person seems comfy with themselves.
I remember SLAs including ‘five nines’ ensurances. That meant 99.999% uptime or an allowance of 26 seconds of downtime a month. That would be unheard of nowadays because no cloud provider can ensure that they will have that uptime.
Yeah. Overshoot then overcorrect, then overshoot again. Only we’ve got our priorities skewed and now we’re tuning using ‘engagement metrics’. Numbers representing human happiness and contentment just aren’t important in the face of capital.
They’ll probably build a highway, cutting the boulders natural habitat in half.
