O #meaculpa do Rodrigo, ao final do post, demonstra o grau de dificuldade não só de instituições, mas de todos, em lidar com o atual cenário de captura pelas corporações anti-democráticas. Mas concordo que cabe a governos induzirem a mudança positiva.

Posso dizer que os #museus brasileiros estão fazendo a parte que lhes cabe. Os consultores estão contratados, e as primeiras conversas são promissoras!

He leído sobre el #DLC #MeaCulpa de #Blasphemous2 (que tiene mal recibimiento entre los jugadores en #Steam y #GOG).

Me parece caro: el DLC, en su actual rebaja, son nueve euros y pico cuando el juego me costó quince euros.

Me queda claro que añade (básicamente) dos zonas nuevas con su misión asociada y dos jefes. Y mucho plataformeo. Y el arma Mea Culpa, claro.

De plataformeo tengo suficiente con la actualización "True Torment" y prefiero acabar el juego así. De momento, paso.

Speaking of #MeaCulpa, about a week ago ...

> the latest changes at NZ Herald owner NZME, including canning the jobs of dozens of journalist

mastodon.nzoss.nz/@strypey/114

In my head, possibly confusing it with previous waves of news media job losses, I was thinking the number was in the hundreds. A subsequent listen to MediaWatch corrected that, to just about 40;

Technically this is about 3 dozen, which is still a lot of people losing their livelihood, but ...

One of my permaculture teachers says;

If you're not making any mistakes, you're not learning anything.

That really stuck with me. When I get things wrong - especially in areas I consider myself knowledgeable about - what I try to do is focus not on what I failed to do (be right), but what I did do (learn something).

I give myself props for having the humility to accept my human limitations, and the courage to transcend my current knowledge. I celebrate it (see the #MeaCulpa tag).

A while back someone told me an electric car was not a car, because it doesn't have a carburetor. So you have to call it an EV. I took him at his word. Then I was on a train and I said something to another passenger about the train car we were in. And I thought;

Maybe the word "car" isn't short for "carburetor", maybe it's short for "carriage"? So I checked. Yup;

Was that EV geek messing with me, or did it never occur to him?

> Stalin only joined WW2 because the Nazis had the hubris to attack the USSR

As I learned sometime after this, from Snyder's Yale lectures about the history of Ukraine, Stalin actually helped Hitler *start* WW2 by invading Poland with him, and occupying a big chunk of it. Strange that this isn't part of the popular narrative if WW2 history.

But my comment here is still fair if applied only to why they started fighting the Nazis.
