This actually happened to me once. I illegally streamed a show and then this Italian guy Vinnie the Foot blasts through my screen. Nice guy. Asked for a towel, I made him an espresso, we watched movies and smoked cigars til sunrise.

is TPB dead?

Anti-feminism has taken a huge hold in SK. it’s partially related to the draft, but that’s nothing new. women have been getting increased respect over the past decades, esp in sharp contrast to the pre-war era when women didnt even deserve names beyond “X’s mom”.

the situation for women is actually improving a lot here, in many ways better than in other developed nations. consider it just one last baby whine

Skyrim sucks too

Thanks! It’s scary how simple it sounds to play, knowing how vast the possibilities are calculations are. I should go find old korean guys in the park and start getting my butt whooped i guess

I’ve been watching that on TV lately! We call it Ba-dook :) I do really wanna learn it, but it seems sooo complex

Um, Chess

TES6 isn’t out yet? neat. wouldn’t know, cuz fuck Bethesda

they don’t even need to make a good game anymore eh? just skinner box their way to the top?

I dont mean this as a “dunk” but more of a how neat is that

It’s truly shameful that disclaimers like these feel necessary in this age of shitting on everyone else online. Lemmy users suck too.

Lol i was expecting to get a lot of downvotes for asking clarifying questions without having any opinions formed. The internet doesn’t like that. ME SMASH!!

So… just to check my understanding, what you’re saying is that whether or not cats can survive on a vegan diet, it doesn’t matter? Right? You’re saying that you decided the admins overstepped and you regret approaching ambiguity the way you did? I suppose that seems reasonable. There’s plenty of misinfo all over Lemmy as is, and as such there’s gotta be various ways we can handle it - from top-down bans to trusting the readers.

As for the diet stuff, what, are they using lab-grown meat? Is that the TLDR here?

EDIT: Guys I am just checking my understanding - maybe check your own if you think such a comment does not contribute to the discussion.

Oh come on, now you’re just feigning ignorance. The body types correspond to both modes of human sexual dimorphic presentations. Just because you take away the names doesn’t mean the dimorphic traits are absent. It IS a sexually dimorphic character creation system. So within that, let’s look at who gets to be the default and who gets to be the “second sex” (highly recommend reading de Beauvoir, again). OP is taking issue with not just the veiled binary but also the hierarchy within it.

Let me put it this way. Imagine if the body types were no longer sexually dimorphic but had varied skin tones. And despite the fact that we know skin tones present in a variety of ways, they only offered light peach skin tones and dark skin tones. And they made the secondary one the darker skin tone. Maybe you or I would have a problem with it, maybe we wouldn’t. But could you understand why someone might take issue with that? It’s a fair objection to make, whether we can conceive of a solution or not.

And hey I think OP’s solution would apply pretty well here: let us create characters with a variety of presentations! Or maybe just take away the “light” and “dark” options? A lot of people in this thread responded with great rationale from game dev standpoints, and that stuff is valid. I can see why devs do things the way they do. But I can also see why OP doesn’t like it.

OOPS sex is a social construct too

“Why do we have to be Universe B?! You be Universe A and we’ll be Universe’s 1!”

lol you should see what the slider does. it’s not great. max femme makes you turn cartoonish puffy and red

yikes, OP wasn’t calling this secondary any more than Simone de Beauvoir was when she published The Second Sex… it’s an actual problem that deserves recognition, and shitting on someone for recognizing it? you’re the one reinforcing the problem now!!

OP was merely gesturing at another instance of patriarchal culture treating the feminine as secondary by putting it second. not a controversial revelation tbh quite trite really

Tons of Satisfactory. They’re finally releasing 1.0 on September 10th and I’m stoked. Replaying new worlds, figuring out efficient build setups, messing around, etc. Great sandbox game.

still haven’t tried it! it’s in my library
