@matana @xianc78 "as he fixated on the potential fame" is what I was basically thinking of
youtu.be/xP0YISXBHeU?t=430

But yeah, it's just speculation. From what I've seen fame is usually the motive for these kinds of killers, especially one's that first kill their family

@xianc78 @matana He wanted to get famous for murdering people. I could see how the sizzled out acting career played into that

@noyoushutthefuckupdad They're supposed to look and act like little girls. Anime girls, kids, and cats are cute because they have huge eyes and heads. On a scale of neoteny anime girls are higher than babies

Moeblob anime girls also have the same head and eye features from babies to adults. Yui is a highschooler but her head is the same as an elementary schooler's

(this is also why normies think it's pedo when the anime girl has booba, they're not used to it and just see a child's face)

@xianc78 The main things that drove me away from libertarianism was it's focus on money and deontology

Libertarianism and socialism are both extremely money focused. They put their prime goal as money and only disagree in how to achieve and spread it. Almost every point a socialist/libertarian makes is about how it prevents the spread of wealth

When it's not about money, it's a deontological "because I say so", with this extremely arbitrary definition of freedom that accepts acts like driving your kids into the woods to let them die (Rothbard), debt slavery, and media manipulation as free

A more minor thing is also how they can't ever admit a fault capitalism. Certain industries have extremely large networking effects that you just can't overcome with a free market. Power tends to centralise because having it means you have the will and power to gain more power

@beardalaxy @noyoushutthefuckupdad Longer, going "out of bounds" was really fun, bigger story arcs, funnier quips, more lore, more characters, bigger and more complex puzzles, Co-Op, level editor, workshop puzzles, creepier atmosphere, more detailed environment and better graphics, especially the lighting, light grids, gels, the ending, everything

It honestly feels like Portal 1 was just a tech demo for Portal 2.. Not downplaying how good Portal 1 was, but Portal 2 was amazingly good

@beardalaxy
also because free

Yeah, I could afford €60 for a game, or I could just pirate. I don't want to pay more than €20 for a game

It's digital, each copy costs almost nothing but it's inflated because the state uses violence to give them a monopoly on the item. In other regions they price it at 1/3 the price and put in extra restrictions over it. It's a.scam

@xianc78 @beardalaxy He wants to make Beard Fox 64 though, it's fast enough

Like a ship model, a bunch of asteroids, some bullets, maybe a loli announcer shouting "Amazing!" as you score points, that kinda thing

@Gronsak Look what they need just to mimic a fraction of nigger

@LodedDiaper @matana @matrix

If consciousness involves action instead of just pure perception, then it would have to depend on physical mechanisms in the brain, since it affects conscious behaviour, so animals must have some version of the same thing

But then how does the progression work? I've thought whether computers have some form of it since they have something kinda sorta similar

It makes sense that something like this would have evolved. Brains are huge and extremely complex, with each neuron working basically as it's own CPU, so there would have had to have been a central coordinator so we don't get half of our brain going left and the other half going right, something like semaphores in computing

But still, why am I so sure I don't feel like a computer?

@matrix @matana @LodedDiaper Honestly the only good argument I know of for god would be consciousness. I can't explain the ghost in the machine, but I've hardly ever seen religious people use this point
