  • Shape of Water? Really?

    I know the top comments are bringing the usual boring answers, but man, I'll take them over pretending that is anywhere close to being bad. There's way too much shit out there worth recognizing, like, the latest stinker is Five Nights at Freddy's.

    If someone wants a bottom 30 contender, I suggest looking up A Fish Called Wanda. It has two jokes: Long winded rants and Homophobia. Laugh. I made the delivery better.

  • I see at least three catches here, and all of them taken from the basic guide

    • Good doesn't mean "humane".
    • Lawful doesn't mean "thoughtful".

    A demon that follows an moral code of conduct that is immoral by our standards is still canonically lawlful good by theirs. The nature of a fervorous Paladin is a matter of perspective.

    • Lawful nor Good mean "non-violent".

    I don't need to explain this part. A Paladin is... Sometimes less a matter of perspective.

    As an example, in the Movie Rabbit Proof Fence, the villain is a British Guy who falls, by his perspective, Lawfully Good. For reference, the movie starts with him doing a presentation on Eugenics and how he can save the "aboriginal people" through race mixing. Him mandating the two girls kidnapped from their village was entirely lawful. He really thinks he's doing good and he does not at any point play dirty with those close to him to get what he wants. His biggest issue was being born in the wrong place, at the wrong time with the wrong people, with the wrong amount of scrupulosity.

    I don't know how, but you probably did more damage here than even some other more aggressive responses. I think you just indirectly turned every government inherently authoritarian, albeit with society still functional. Because the lawmakers everywhere will catch on to how the cops function, and any semblance of progressive thought would soon stop developing.

  • Eh, time and effort is limited depending on what the matter at hand is. Sometimes, you are required to just impulse buy or not live at all.

    ... And yet, I know exactly what you mean. There's a class of people who just live with a phone for nearly everything they do 14 hours of their daily life, day in day out, 12 months a year. No rest whatsoever. And yet, the moment they find any resistance anywhere in their life, not even on something related to the phone, they just. dont. google. They literally refuse to help themselves and will just do what they know and refuse to do or even concern themselves with better.

    I've seen a 20-year-old who, when asked to give in their homework on Moodle, like normal people do, instead... wrote everything on a Mac's Notes app, took a photo and then pestered people for the teacher's phone number so they could send the shitty photo of their homework on a very popular chat application. When told that this was not going to count, they just shrugged and stopped caring. Again, they used technology daily. That was objectively the stupidest and laziest "functional" person I've ever met, a true sheep, and I fear ever becoming like them during onset of dementia.

  • Comments like these is literally the first thing the article warns against.

    YouTube is doing this in a staggered and flaky rollout. Seeing the videos fine as an anecdote is no indication of anything. The only people who can claim a method works are those who have gained access to affected accounts, know how they're affected, and have issued a fix.

  • Yeah. I don't see the moderator leaving as a huge loss or anything because the fight against misinformation and noise in inglorious and full of people who refuse to help themselves. They have a life demanding their concern, and as far as I care, if they finally ripped the bandaid and went and focused on that life of theirs, then the world has become a better place.

  • And it works with hidden tabs, and thus by extension, with the tab groups add-on.

    I have a whole group of tabs for uploading add-ons that have their own session, and the group's behavior is persistent. And I can switch to them on the fly. When not in use, I don't see them there at all.

  • If you're not designing the NFT game around the profit and trading aspect - then the NFT is pointless and you could just make a game with tradeable assets registered to a conventional relational database.

    Aka: What MMO's, browser social platforms and Steam itself has been doing successfully for more than a decade before NFT's showed up.

    It's a technological dead end (in gaming) even without the greed, because the use cas is already done cheaper, simpler and better.

  • """upscaled""" 4K, righto.

    I dunno why people expect extreme levels of graphics anyways. Alan Wake 2 will not be a better game just because the pores in the wood are rendered at all times.

    A $600 PC runs everything if you learn to ignore this one, meaningless attribute.

  • People will just slowly move to northerner places. When those get back, they'll move again. Lots of borders will close. There will be some wars over the likes of Siberia but they won't last.

    Eventually people will run out of places to go too up norther, and they'll just deny the existence of an issue.
