Fascinating, I never thought that kind of thing could exist… Does the group use VRChat?

You must be part of the great !stopdrinking@lemmy.world crowd.

Wow, I never heard about this malware trend. I guess this kind of crap will only increase with AI’s help…

I had a user do that with video editing software… seriously, what could go wrong? Ransomware. Literally ransomware.

What app was that? I’m guessing the software was not FOSS.

Try sunflower seed butter and honey!

Not if you eat it right away!

Rather, the overarching idea in Nosedive is that the flawed system pushes people to misbehave in terrible ways; it encourages you to step back, zoom out, and be more in horror at the whole thing from the start to end, rather than just at the protagonist’s actions. Same with the episode White Bear, etc.

Man, I wish I could just skip S1, then. If I can’t then I may never see it as there is so much else out there!

No, it’s not! Did you merely read a synopsis? Those things leave so much out.

Oh, that one was… yeah, I would not have been hooked off that one, personally. I would definitely reconsider if you’re at all willing. Maybe try Black Museum. Hmm… not sure of which you might like the most, but USS Callister is widely renowned, as far as I know.

Same (re: Dark). I’d rather just rewatch Steins;Gate.

But which one was it? They’re all separate situations with unique characters per episode.

Which are those (at least, which you suggest)?

In that case, we should ask: what have you finished and do you recommend?

Ironically, I couldn’t stand Expanse’s pilot and I don’t think I got past the first few episodes. It was just so slow and nap-inducing…

If you can wade through the sludge (like ST:TNG S1), it really becomes incredibly thought-provoking in especially season 3.

You didn’t find any of the art interesting at all? But anyway, if the plots suck, we wouldn’t watch, either! I recommend that you try My Hero Academia, which is about 80% of the planet’s population attaining superpowers; the story follows one boy in the 20% with no special abilities at all as he tries to navigate life in this new world.

I couldn’t keep with Demon Slayer. It was just ultimately unpredictable in plot to me, but not really in a good way. I don’t know how to describe it.

I hated watching Riko constantly treat Reg like a machine.

But… is he not?
