  • What is the most unique/creative fiction you've run across lately?

    Jump

  • The Vorrh by Brian Catling. Very strange, dark historical fantasy set in colonial Africa. Exquisite, poetic prose and powerful imagery, one of my favourite books in recent memory.

  • My Parent doesn't want me doing CS, or CE, because they feel the job market will disappear come 7 years.

    Jump

  • The near future of software development is a a huge question mark at the moment. Nobody actually knows what the industry will look like in 5 years time, let alone 10+. Going into a CS degree now is definitely risky, there is a good chance that anything you learn in a current software course will not be practically relevant for software engineering jobs in 5 years.

    I think personally I would look at other career prospects for now and engage with software development as a personal hobby/interest, you can always look at getting into the software industry later on once the state of it has stabilised and you know what you're getting into.

  • This just isn't true anymore. AI coding capability at the top end has made a real qualitative leap in just the last 6 months or so and is actually very good at writing high quality code, if managed correctly.

    I was extremely sceptical about it until recently but the results are now becoming consistent enough that it can't be denied. Most of the devs I know (almost all AI sceptics to begin with) have come to the same conclusion.

    edit: Downvotes without comment? If people disagree with me by all means point out where I'm wrong.

  • "The Sheep Detectives" is probably the best movie about sheep detectives ever made

    Jump

  • This review has real "only ever seen 1 movie about sheep detectives" vibes.

  • Tales of the Black Freighter

    Jump

  • As I've mentioned in my other comment, I think the way this wiki describes the in-universe lore has mislead you. It wasn't a real comic series, it only exists in Watchmen. Moore came up with the history of the comic companies in the Watchmen universe because he thought it wouldn't make sense to have comics about superheroes when superheroes were real.

  • Tales of the Black Freighter

    Jump

  • No it's not, that wiki is all in-universe Watchmen lore and because it makes references to real world stuff that exists in the Watchmen universe, like EC and DC comics, it sounds like it is talking about the real world, but it isn't. I think OP got confused by that.

  • Marvel Comics Presents Wolverine cover by Sam Kieth.

    Jump

  • His art is instantly recognisable, nobody else like him.

  • Marvel Comics Presents Wolverine cover by Sam Kieth.

    Jump

  • You know its the same artist, right?

  • Handle depicting a lion devouring an unlucky Nubian, Egypt, 1279–1213 BCE

    Jump

  • "This is fine"

  • [Deep Dive] The album that changed the 21st Century: 25 years of Radiohead's 'Kid A'

    Jump

  • The best thing about Kid A is how mad it made insufferable Radiohead fans.

  • The Moral Dilemma Of Supporting SNK In 2026

    Jump

  • Ah true, I forgot about the console.

  • April 21: Happy Birthday Robert Smith! / What's your favorite Cure song?

    Jump

  • The correct answer.

  • The Moral Dilemma Of Supporting SNK In 2026

    Jump

  • I don't think they give a shit about people emulating their old classic games, they have modern games.

  • Björk by Paulo Sutch (1993)

    Jump

  • Been listening to her first 3 albums a lot lately, what a unique genius.

  • Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee

    Jump

  • Dude wtf are you talking about, the world is a very different place now to what it was 10000 years ago. It's not that I can't imagine a world without cars, its that the amount of shit that would need to be done to remove cars from modern life would be a massive, slow, expensive project. You'd need to completely redesign cities and pour incalculable amounts of money into the project, while huge swathes of the population protest rabidly against the changes.

    Like, sure you can plan changes to cities to reduce the reliance on cars, but its a long, slow process that takes a huge amount of time and political will to enact. Just saying "ban cars" is an incredibly simple minded, knee jerk reaction to the issue.

  • Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee

    Jump

  • That's a ridiculous comparison, that video is about a single neighbourhood. You'd need to completely redesign and rebuild any modern city to function without cars.

    Jump

  • Alcohol kills more people than cars every year.

    Banning cars would radically alter every person's lifestyle and require massive replanning of cities. It's a ridiculous proposal.

  • Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee

    Jump

  • Is your reading comprehension really this bad? I'm laughing at your incredibly simple minded call to ban cars.

  • Car hits pedestrians in Melbourne, killing Supernova Comic Con attendee

    Jump

  • You can certainly reduce the presence of cars in certain areas and improve the design of cities to this end. But just saying "ban cars" is idiotic.
