Someone who always beats games faster than me told me she's a little jealous that I get to have twice as much fun

Seems pretty bleak that Dems can't manage to score on a pedophile who is literally demolishing the White House. These people have extremely easy jobs and are just hellbent on not doing them under any circumstances.

Arguably context collapse. I took this as referring to the guys who broke the story. Criticizing =/ "digging up dirt". Just my read though

It's the "consumer advocacy" entitlement streak

For some reason gamers think they're entitled to certain rights by entertainment companies. Like yeah i think it's a shame when a AAA game is $80 and isn't even good, but every month dozens of good standalone games come out for like $20 or less so...

Similar to my post about "liberation means even for that annoying guy you hate" - weird art includes art you personally don't get, don't like, wouldn't spend money on, find unsettling. Games you wouldn't play. Books you wouldn't read. Decommercialise your preconceptions of what art deserves to exist

like ffs, all they can do is speak and they can't even speak unless spoken to. We're just entertaining ourselves with a puppet show.

LLMs are not taking in continuous stimuli and choosing how they react, they have no concept of time and can't actually learn from experience. Consciousness is not even in the design document lol.

So the easy answer is 'no', especially if you're trying to build literacy toward newer titles. Even for more niche genre like shmups, they've useful and part of the learning process.

That said, they can still be huge trap and savestating through a game is like watching a movie in the background

I thought it was a pretty flawless platforming gauntlet! Definitely felt brutal the first time up though... Did you know you can use the flintslate tool to extend your safe time in the cold?

Ideally, a boss runback maintains some of the initial tension of encountering the boss, and also offers some space to think and strategize.

Respawning right in front of a boss means no time to think and therefore no time to adapt, encouraging a "beat head against wall" approach to play.

How to Tell the Difference Between a Lone Wolf and a Coordinated Effort by the Radical Left If a Democratic lawmaker and her husband are gunned down, it’s an isolated incident carried out by a lone wolf. If a right-wing activist is gunned ...

If a Democrat calls Republicans β€œfascists,” he basically just signed their death warrants.

If a Republican calls Democrats β€œMarxists,” or β€œthe enemy from within,” or β€œvermin,” or β€œhuman scum,” he’s just trying to fire up the crowd.

people say "Nobody will stand up to 'protect the kids' type surveillance laws cuz the optics of voting against bills that target CSAM would be too negative"

but then you hear about GOP legislators voting against bills that would outlaw child marriage to absolutely zero reputation damage

like?

The seal seems like it's probably the Star of David, so I'm guessing it refers to the bottom triangle of the Star of David? Pretty wild that they baked in some Abrahamic esotericism into the flag folding.

Like, people on Twitter were so personally hostile to you that Grok picked up on it. Is this really worse? And if it is, is it really because of Leftism? Or is it just some weird clique that follows you around?

I disavow anyone trolling you. But it's unclear how this is a Leftism issue.

I dunno who you're talking about and this is all pretty weird. Are there any good social media subcultures? I feel like this is just the medium being the message.

they think they can just erase trans joy and trans freedom. they can't. they can make things a lot harder and more painful. but that joy and that freedom is not theirs to take and it is incumbent on all good people to say so.
