To be honest, I'm pretty sure beer has more nutritional value than coffee. While I don't endorse drinking alcohol in the morning, if you had nothing to eat, and are desperate for some caloric intake... beer is likely a better choice.

@LukeAlmighty Well... Chernobyl has shown us that wildlife can actually survive and even thrive in a nuclear contaminated environment. So I think the odds are good enough.

@LukeAlmighty Honestly, I find it hard to find downsides to India-Pakistan starting a nuclear war with each other.
No more bad IT support.
No more bad tech scams.
No more Bollywood movies.
Less human waste ending up in the ocean.
The low level nuclear winter will rid ourselves of the concern over global warming for a bit (and I say low level, because it won't actually be big enough to engulf the entire planet in actual nuclear winter, it will just cool things a bit).

I mean, ok, millions of Indians and Pakistanis will die... but... I mean...

@hacknorris I remember hearing about a different study, which found a similarly interesting conclusion. Basically, the study was measuring the IQ of individuals, while also measuring how much and how they swear, and they found a correlation between creative swearing and intelligence.

Ok, wtf, I watched the same video today!... But yeah, I don't get it. I haven't seen him make political remarks before, and I don't see how this wouldn't be targeting the whole "Minnesota man" thing.

@beardalaxy That's kinda my point. You're so autistic, that even non-normie things (or autistic things if you will) start looking like normie things.

Anything can be normie if you're autistic enough.

2020 Biden: We're gonna cure cancer...
2024 Biden: in Minecraft

It feels like 99% of politician promises are like this.

>the problem is that the games do still need to get made
Hard disagree on that one. There are already more good games out there than you'll be able to play for the rest of your life.
Even if you're obsessed with only playing new games, there's still about 90% more games than needed being made constantly.

The market deserves and drastically NEEDS a crash.

@beardalaxy @Gatitasecsii
Why is it that in the game price calculus people ALWAYS seem to forget that games are much easier to make today.
There are more tools people can use, there are more experienced people that can help teach new devs, there is more documentation available, there are more pre-made libraries that you can reuse or take inspiration as a starting point for coding your game.

It used to be that every game release had to reinvent the wheel and write up a new game engine from scratch. Now everyone either uses the same of a handful of engines, or they gradually improve the engine they've already been working with for years. Just for the sake of the argument, imagine Valve makes HL3 in a Source 3 engine. Would they be writing Source 3 completely from scratch? No. There'd be large portions of it that just gets copy-pasted from Source 2.

Maybe you can make a decent argument that it's not easier to make models and texture them, but I'm not sure if even that is true. It used to be an art of it's own to make optimized models, that looked good while having the minimal amount of polygons. Now, if you're truly lazy, you make your model with as high of polygon count as you can, and get Unreal engine to "optimize" it for you.

Making games is much, much, easier. Expedition 33 proves that like nothing else before it probably.
Sure, the average AAA game studio is bloated with massive teams. But that's not because the games are hard to make. It's because studios kept hiring bad artists and devs that are barely able to accomplish a fraction of the work of a good developer.
We should not be rewarding incompetence. We should not be paying based on how many people worked on the game. We should be paying based on how much value the game provides in the end. And based on that, so much of the western AAA market DOES NOT DESERVE even $60, let alone $80.

Some blind man somewhere: "I may be blind, but at least I'm not retarded. Thank you God!"

@VD15
I'm so autistic about the "processed food" label. What does that even mean?! Everything is processed in some way. A literal apple from a tree gets washed and waxed for it to last longer on the shelf. But nobody gives a crap about that processing. "Processing" is a meaningless word. Define a fucking border on what kind of "processing" is unhealthy if you want me to take you seriously.

So are the Jews not entitled to their historical homeland then?

As for genetically, I'm not sure what you mean. There is certainly a proportion of Jews that lived in other parts of the world, and likely mingled with populations there, making them partial European for instance. But from what I've seen in general, Jews tend to consider themselves middle eastern in origin.

@BasedLunatic
>aren't the protesters young people?
Not really. Even the BDS thing has been around for two decades, and they've been targeting university students for indoctrination for that long. So you easily can have people in their 40s doing this shit. There is no age limit to the antisemitic crap. At best you have young people being the fodder, the pawns of this game, but the organizers and leaders for this stuff end up being university teachers.

Also, you don't need to be a Christian, or think Jews are "the chosen people" to believe in their right to self govern.

@BasedLunatic
If I had actually seen anti-Israel boycotts conducted by rational people, I might have cared. But seeing how every time I see any kind of anti-Israel/antizionist public event, outcry, protest, or any kind of organized event, it's basically guaranteed to be organized by massive antisemites, I honestly don't give a crap.

90% of the time "I'm speechless" actually translates to "I'm offended". The other 10% of the time it is said by a man.
