It only stops being magical if you let cynicism win.

Sylvanas is a bold example, considering I think most non-gooners would actually prefer her older models.

Good! Hopefully one of those other apps is federated and free from any hostile interests.

Yeah, they should shut down both. Honestly, X should be on the chopping block even faster that Meta, but Zuck seems committed to racing Musk to the bottom.

Won’t ever happen. Americans are complacent fools. They’ll starve themselves for years if you promise them bread tomorrow.

I have! It is very laid-back, but I also found it to be a bit lacking in content. That was like a year ago though, and it’s my understanding that they’ve added a lot more to the game since I played.

Nah dude, you’re thinkin of Trevor Moore.

That’s the guy who died having anal sex with a horse.

Right but take what you just said to it’s logical conclusion. Why should only men have those responsibilities? All you’ve really done is create a different, nicer patriarchy, that still expects men to conform to specific gender roles and still expects women to conform to specific gender roles. Consider the inverse, all the people who physically can’t produce more than they require to survive, who need additional attention or care, through no fault of their own. Can those people not be men?

You’ve described just a generally good person, and realistically you’ve described more women than you have men. The goal should be to get rid of the idea that certain responsibilities are reserved for certain genders completely.

You’re maybe in the vast minority of normies, but I think a lot of gamers have actually realized how lame Skyrim is. There’s certainly hours long rants on Youtube breaking down each little issue the game has, as well as examining it from the perspective of modern game design and as a failure of the Elder Scrolls brand, but beyond that; is anyone really holding up vanilla Skyrim as the pinnacle of gaming any more? Even Bethesda realized it needs mods to be enjoyable.

Feel like this one should have stopped after the first two panels.

100% believable and 100% pointless. So much of that money is basically being wasted on their digital art team making technically distinct assets for each game. They all have to be exceptionally high quality, because Call of Duty is a AAA franchise, but do any players actually care if their sniper rifle looks slightly different if the numbers and mechanics are identical?

Feel like all of CoD’s successful competitors have figured out that FPS players don’t really give a shit and will happily play the same client on the same maps with minimal updates year after year, but Acti-Blizz is addicted to reinventing the wheel each time even though they’re reusing the good maps.

At least in recent memory, it was Dragon’s Dogma 2 teaching me that I could pick up and carry downed party members by having one of my party members pick up another one and bring them over to me. There’s so much that’s possible in DD2 that just isn’t in a typical videogame, that throughout the entire experience I was mostly learning niche interactions from my other party members instead of my own experimentation. It was a really cool experience, and felt way more impactful then a text prompt just lecturing me about all the mechanics the game has.

I think the only thing that’s changed is that our rich people lack imagination, and we describe them as somewhat cringe.

Yeah, keep more snacks on hand. Nothing tastes better after a few hits on the bong than some kale chips or baby carrots.

because the goal isn’t for more transparency in their service, CTA is mismanaged trash rn. It’s to have less transparency, so less people realize that the delays between trains still have not returned to pre-pandemic levels, and likely never will.

Okay but imagine how badass you’d be to actually take down like an enemy hind or w/e with this bad boy. Legendary.

Aren’t all of those essentially just city-states? I’ll forgive anyone who’s not able to tell which dot is which, that’s pretty fair.

Okay but like, how could you miss Lichtenstein? As long as it’s in scale, you should be able to know it’s the smallest country on the continent and go from there.

I dunno, seems pretty good for queer spaces and shitposting, but I guess .world doesn’t know much about either.

I’d add another difference: way more idiots. Back in the day, that idea that everything on the internet needed to be taken with a grain of salt was incredibly widespread. It was one of the bedrocks of internet culture, and it’d get memed to death.

Now, the number of people who view everything on the internet as gospel truth has surpassed the number of healthy skeptics.
