No way, that’s the guy who said the industrial revolution and its consequences are a disaster for humans.

it has been suggested that ‘the cultural moment belongs to sex robots’ and that ‘sex dolls are along for the ride’ (Ruberg
2022, 24). Nowhere is this more evident than in the ‘sex robot brothel’ controversies
that have materialized across Asia, Europe, and North America over the past two
decades. Despite often self-describing or being described as ‘sex robot brothels’, these
enterprises are typically commercial venues or private residences that rent lifelike sex
dolls by the hour. None of these establishments provide access to existing sex robots –
hyper-realistic silicone sex dolls equipped with robotic heads and accompanying AI soft-
ware.2 Similarly, none but one of these businesses offers the services of human sex
workers despite billing themselves and being billed as brothels – premises where sex
workers engage in sexual services with clients (OED.com).3 A standout business is that
of Cybrothel. Established in 2020 and based in Berlin, Cybrothel provides a unique ‘Ana-
logue AI’ brothel experience wherein customers can rent synthetic sex dolls who are
‘brought to life’ by remotely located voice actresses/sex workers using strategically
placed cameras and speakers (Culley 2023; Hanson and Smith 2024).https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/23268743.2025.2476955
Why don’t they put Wobbuffet in the mix? I bet he’s pretty soft.
That sounds an awful lot like “don’t do anything that might upset the Christians.”
FWIW I interpreted this as unironically uplifting, along the lines of “Where the Wild Things Are”.
3·16 days agoWe post a lot of Bandcamp links on !gothindustrial@lemmy.world because the free song streaming is great and a lot of bands are on there. Eventually they’ll enshittify and get rid of the free streaming or require a signin at which point I’ll move on to something else (dunno what?!)
Agreed. fwiw Bandcamp is currently kinda like that for their digital tracks tho it was bought out a couple years ago so will begin enshittifying any day now…

I don’t understand everything on this chart, but it looks like sh.itjust.works lagged a bit over the past 24 hours and is now catching up.

dunno I don’t use mobile clients for piefed… I think there’s one but don’t know much about it.
Piefed is awesome. I really like Scheduled Posts, as well as Feeds (which are collections of communities). There are only a couple reasons why keep my lemmy.world account: uploading images in comments is difficult in piefed, and I don’t think piefed supports custom preview for youtube videos yet. But I imagine those will be fixed at some point in the near future.
I think you’re taking heat a little bit unfairly. This is, after all, the MILDLY infuriating community, and it can be a hassle when something stops working for you, even if it’s perfectly reasonable for it to happen.
