Unfortunately. Mandatory military service is critical to many countries survival. You NEED to have a population that understand the basics of how to organise a defense.

It's the difference between being a country or being a province.

I will quote a Major in his response to why we don't practise defense coming from the west.

"it's possible we might be attacked from the west, but it would be a very long and strange route for the Russians to take"

Colourful image with no source. Just a bcbp logo which, wtf is that?

It's not even accurate. At least not for Sweden. So, if they got that wrong. I will assume the rest is possibly wrong too.

Ever been to IKEA

I'm Swedish. So yes. I think it's fair to say I've been to IKEA. I stand by what I said.

I strongly disagree. I've pulled and pushed carts that only turn on the rear wheels. It's not complicated nor difficult. Even with one hand.

Where to begin...

But I'll touch on something no one else has here.

Shopping carts. It's mindblowing to me that the country that sent men to the moon still hasn't figured out that its easier for everyone if they turn on all 4 wheels rather than the 2 front ones.

That way you can slide your cart sideways to make room for other shoppers. And turning it takes no effort.

And even... even if it is some weird cost cutting thing. Why not make them turn on the rear wheels? That would still make it easier than in the front. Since you steer the cart from the rear.

Get your shit together. Put gun controll aside, put your dumb ass two party politics aside and focus on what matters. Your godawful shopping carts.

let's make sure we keep them to that standard then.

Can you easily farm SC in the game? Yes.

Just because others have it worse, doesn't mean you should settle for slightly better than terrible.

If it's war and combat you want there is absolutely no shortage of that going on...

You're born just in time.

Dude, they're not racists for disagreeing with your reasoning.

Racism, of various levels, are built upon hundreds of years of mistrust, inequality and misinformation.

It's not as simple as just "cmon can't we all just get along?". And they are trying to explain this to you. And inform you that it's a difficult and long path that has to be built slowly and carefully, and each place on earth will have to build it in a way that works for them, because all places experience racism differently.

Them trying to explain this to you doesn't make them racists. None of them are saying discrimination is ok. Not a single one.

I read your comment. I didn't downvote.

I'm using the "you" in the colloquial sense, i see that wasn't apparent to you. (You as in you the singular individual)

I understand you are against kernel level anti cheat. That's ok. That's an opinion. But your argument that it's some kind of secret which games have it or not, is not a matter of opinion. It's verifiable. And It's just not true. It's not a secret. You can easily find out if you want to.

You can make the argument that platforms should make publishers divulge that information on the games page. And I say sure, why not.

But it always will be your responsibility to make sure you know what you're installing.

Unfortunately. It is an armsrace against cheaters. And 1 single cheater can easily ruin the entire experience for hundreds of players. I understand why games might want it. I hope they can find more clever ways of detecting cheats without it.

As a final word. Lemmy is a big place. It's utterly ridiculous of you to assume I'm the one who downvoted.

People need to take responsibility of their own machines.

While they might not hold out a sign that says "KERNEL LEVEL ANTI CHEAT". There is information available to make an informed decision.

Your cake and fork argument makes no sense at all. The game company isn't telling you what you can and can't do with your hardware. But they are telling you what you will be installing. It's there if you know where to look. And if you don't know where to look. You have the combined knowledge of the world at your fingertips for guidance.

I don't know what you do. But when I buy a cake. I look at the ingredients to see what and how much it contains of various things. If I don't like what I see, I won't be buying it. Because I certainly won't be eating it.

And I'm also not going to buy a plastic fork to eat it with. See how I made that decision. The cake company didn't make me buy a certain fork, and the fork company didn't make me buy a certain cake. I decide.

It's ultimately your responsibility to understand what you are installing. Information is available.

No one is forcing you to install their game.

It's so easy to look up what kind of anti cheat games use.

You can't eat the cake and have it too.

They don't have a right to install anything without your consent. However. You pressed the "Install" button. And you boxed in "I understand" and clicked "I agree".

You know what also isn't done by a significant part of the world? Eating insects. But im not gonna go and call their eating habbits weird just because it's not something I grew up with.

It's called being tolerant and accepting of others culture.

Russell said that Max said.

Seems to be par for the course. Doctors have for some time now spoken about the vast number of children that have been shot. Not just shot. Shot in the head.

I do not believe in fate.

You should stop assuming things because you're not very accurate with your assumptions.

Do you want to speculate if the rounds fired are hand loaded or factory made? Maybe this specific batch of rounds had black pepper instead of gunpowder? Maybe the hammer will break just as he's about to shoot, what are the chances of the executioner having a stroke or an aneurysm? maybe your mom would be your dad if she had balls. And your grandma would be a bike if she had wheels.

I'm not going to debate elementary school level statistics with you. Option A and C both will give you ~33% chance of survival. But for you specifically. I'd recommend option B, for all of our sake.

For instance, in the case of 4/6, one must assume the bullets include 2 sequential empty chambers

No. One must not assume that. You are trying to make all the assumptions that benefit you. A certain bald spot somewhere. A bias in the mechanism that they know about, somehow it's also about capitalism bla bla bla. You put a lot of effort into purposefully misunderstanding how simple statistics work.

And no. If you survive the first pull. You are LESS likely to survive the second. Not more.

It's still the same 5/6 chance. But you having to get that chance multiple times in row makes it less likely the longer you go on. And the math will have it so after 6 times. It comes out to about ~33%

How you feel about it on a philosophical level doesn't change the reality around you.

You can choose which ever option you feel more comfortable with. And that's ok. But it's not going to change how statistics work.

How are you looking at ~15k / ~45k and deem that terribly low?

The previous shots do matter. Because for you to even reach the 6:th shot, all previous attempts have to be in your favor.

It's (5/6) you'll live each pull. But to reach pull #2 you'll have to survive the first. To reach pull #3 you have to survive the first 2.

You're looking at events that have to take place is a specific order. You have to multiply each pull to work out the probability of this event following one of those orders. It will come out to (5/6)^6.

(5/6) is the probability you survive. And ^6 because you have to survive it 6 times.

You're looking at ~33% of getting empty slots 6 times in a row.

Previous attempts always have a bearing on statistics if things need to happen in a certain order.
