@stormbringer @LukeAlmighty They're just called survival games. They all have crafting
@dave @chileanbro Hitler gained leadership of Germany because he was the most popular
Now if you question the Nazis or the holohoax you go to jail. Why?
@LukeAlmighty He has a point. I remember seeing a map like "% of people who identify with the EU over their nation" and the single place that identified more with the EU was Brussels
@KashKustomer @Aether We have physical evidence for it because it bends light

no conlict, just for you
@hideki
chair seemed simple enough imo. it was the anvil that fucked with me
@xianc78 >The problem is though is that you are writing the game's logic in a scripting language. That doesn't seem right to me. If you are making a more complex game like an RPG then you are going to need some way to script dialog and in-engine cutscenes (assuming you are not hardcoding them), in that case, you would have a scripting language running on top of another scripting language
There's no real reason for this. Games like Grim Fandango or basically any Double Fine game has almost all of its logic and scripting in Lua. It works well because Lua is a really good and fast language
>If you are a desktop developer, learn mid-low level languages like C, C++, Go, etc
Go doesn't support strange OSs and C/C++ require you to port yourself. Actually Lua here workes great because it's extremely portable
@beardalaxy @kuken @histoire
Ye, the French Paradox and such
The connection between fat and heart disease started because of a single study that got a correlation between some blood chemical and fat
It was observational and pretty weak. I remember further studies isolated the chemical into two subgroups, a good one and a bad one, and then the correlation fell away
@beardalaxy @matana @histoire Keto 100% helps with weightloss
Just the mechanism with insulin alone. High amounts of sugar make you resistant to insulin so you have a harder time burning energy and it blocks the feeling of fullness
You genuinely feel fuller eating a fatty steak instead of something carby. When people were given soda vs. water before eating a meal the people who had sugar ate noticeably more than those that only had water, even though they had more calories
@matana @beardalaxy @histoire Keto is how I got fit and I lived on no carbs for over a year. It actually became pretty common in Iceland so a lot of people I know did it too
This has also been done with whole cultures and people in scientific settings
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vilhjalmur_Stefansson#Advocacy_of_exclusively_meat_diet
The science behind ketones and their replacement for glucose is also known and real. There genuinely isn't anything you need sugar for
The relationship of blood sugar, insulin, insulin resistance is also known. Even how it makes you more actively healthy. And how more sugar makes you hungrier instead of less hungry
And uh, if you have any idea of the history of diet trends, you'd know that we started to get fat when we started a war on fat. Guess when the low-fat guidelines came out (~1980)
@beardalaxy @matana @histoire Ye I basically addressed this in my reply to her
@matana @beardalaxy @histoire Concepts like shame are evolved. You don't have social order without wrongs and rights and those only exist if you have a sense of them
I know animals masturbate, so what you said is still probably true but there are more facets to it
Shame is evolved, old society evolved over a long period of time whereas modern society is more so invented by people that have no idea what they're doing or are even actively malicious
Imagine an analogy with food. We evolved to find sweet things good and yet when we apply that to the modern world we get obese because our environment is so different from what we evolved in
Food, sex, even things like drugs are evolved drivers that can go awry
Society and it's evolution acts as a correcting factor. Being fat is unhealthy so feeling shame over it keeps you from eating sweets so you stay healthy
It's not some pure black and white thing but think of nofap basically like keto. You don't need carbs to live and eliminating them completely makes the whole thing simpler
What's the exact ideal thing in every instance can't really be described, but abstaining, I think, is a sane one that shouldn't be shit on
@matana @beardalaxy @histoire We didn't evolve our common sense, it's completely modern and artificial. The common sense for 99% of recorded human history was that masturbation was unhealthy. The common sense of other people in other countries today is that it's unhealthy
People are retarded today. They think brains are blank slates, like evolution stops at the neck, that happiness isn't tied to evolved function and is just some fucking nebulous hedonistic shit
@beardalaxy @histoire I didn't say you had to, I said there's more risk
>a well-oiled door and a door that creaks horribly
I don't see any evidence for this. I think that our evolved bodies know more about their health than "common sense" or whatever when almost everything people think now is sick and backwards. You can't draw conclusions from this kinda thinking, there's just no backing for it
@beardalaxy @histoire Why's it good if your body has a mechanism for handling it that doesn't involve the risk of porn addiction and all it's evils?
@Halo It's usually ctrl-alt-t or ctrl-shift-t or super-enter on distros
@beardalaxy Started sucking after the first season, but first one is good
@pancakewwwww@liberdon.com @JohnGritt Well, duh
