@Mr_NutterButter @xianc78 it's also possible that something like a UV laser would be a lot more noticeable. the effects of it. for now, with a blue laser, all we can really do is say "the buildings with blue rooves are unaffected" but it gets quite into conspiracy theory territory. with a UV laser, it has the potential to interact with a lot more stuff and would likely be easier to say "this is definitely a laser."

@Mr_NutterButter @xianc78 blue lasers are the most powerful for destruction if I'm not mistaken. Or, they're the easiest to make very powerful. Something like that. I'm no scientist but my educated guess is that the higher up on the color spectrum you go, the more damaging it is. Blue light probably has a good balance of efficiency to destruction. Blue light can be destructive to your eyes, even if temporarily, and something like UV is obviously a lot worse considering it can damage your skin. But it's probably a lot harder to make a "UV laser" or whatever the equivalent would be. A UV laser probably needs a lot more cooling, bigger chassis, and might be overkill for the purpose of setting a house on fire or something.

All conjecture, not 100% sure, but I am a casual laser enjoyer.

@AngryWraith are d&d books more than $30 now or something? last i checked they still are but that was like last year.

@pissman@baraag.net duuuude i dated a girl who looked a lot like zelda from skyward sword. that was like 8 or 9 years ago. i still have dreams about her, including one just barely where i went to her wedding reception.

@AngryWraith that was right after the whole change to stricter rules for content creators and trying to leech money from them too

"dear mr gay ben.. pls add cunny to steam games thx xoxoxo 📜 ✍️ :gigaChad: "

@ChristiJunior @TeaTootler @monsterislandcolonizer Nintendo took a stance of having zero religion in their games in the early 90s and haven't had it since, that's why zelda got its own mythology because it was originally Christian and Link was more or less a Templar.

@smugumin I don't think sending letters to valve to please allow cunny games on their store will work very well.... xD

Director of the tekken games talks about how to petition changes from devs:

"Let me tell you what is actually most effective for these requests.

First of all, as explained earlier, online petitions are not very effective. Compared to that, a large number of documents hand-delivered by fans with handwritten signatures is still more effective.
But in any case, the signatures are not authentic. because although they are numerous, their enthusiasm is not genuine.

In addition, demonstrations in front of developers' buildings and Q&A sessions at shareholders' meetings have had the opposite effect in some cases (setting a bad precedent if they succumb to such actions).

In my 30 years of experience in the gaming industry, I have found two things to be most effective.

One is to create a big fuss on the Internet and in magazines at a level that is picked up by media outlets outside the gaming industry. This is what I call a big flame war. When this happens, the management of the company has no choice but to take top-down action. However, there have been almost no community-based cases of such an uproar, so this is practically an empty theory.

Let's move on to another example.

In this case, we received multiple letters from multiple fans (unique users) on a daily basis. But they do not include e-mails, but old-fashioned letters by physical mail.

Having experienced this firsthand, I can assure you that a few letters in a postal envelope delivered every day sticks with us more strongly than 10,000 Online Petiiton results streamed to us on social networking sites.

At one point I received several letters a day about requests to reinstate some characters. Some of these letters were terrible, with razor blades in them, which I don't recommend because it is counterproductive.

However, receiving enthusiastic letters from all over the world on a daily basis has a significant impact on the awareness of the development team, making it easier to talk about within the company and attracting the attention of management.

On the other hand, as mentioned earlier, e-mails and Online Petitions no longer give the impression of being indistinguishable from mass spam advertising.
In other words, the ease and convenience of making requests in the online digital space tends to dilute their value.

So, let me just say that in this day and age, requests by letter are actually more effective than you might think.

Thanks"

Susan is adorable! She's sweet, innocent, cute... yet some fans don't like her. 💀 she's literally the nicest girl in the story. People are mean.
