Firefox reader mode just grabs the text and images and let's me read the whole article on most of these sites.

I mean

There was this whole thing called the Soviet Union then there was like a missile crisis

And there was like a group that called themselves National Socialists and they did a genocide and tried to take over a bunch of land by force

We also had to fight a bunch of talking trees that dug tunnels because military industrial complex and heroin

It's definitely many layers of propaganda but as an American I definitely understand WHERE it comes from, I understand why most people here flinch at the word.

You also gotta understand we had multiple generations in a row huffing lead gasoline so while younger millennials aren't impacted as bad, MOST Americans are legitimately lead brained.

I feel like this should be submitted to someone for a mental health review, this person should not own guns

There are a few sound clips that got used a lot when the whole dumbass sigma male thing was popular

I find the internet is super good at locking people into echo chambers. For some reason, I feel especially keen on this when I was super into reddit over the last decade. I could FEEL just how a community would shift into just saying the same 10 things on repeat and any deviation would result in downvotes and messages in my inbox.

But it's not just reddit. Modern video feed algorithms and other social media just need to feed you the same stuff you've engaged with previously.

So what ends up happening is young boys only see the videos of angry purple haired stereotype liberal feminist first year college student get SLAMMED/DESTROYED by Ben Shapiro or Jordan Peterson or a woman who is clearly saying something sarcastic with sad sigma male music in the background and all the comments are calling for her to be put in prison or death.

And that's not to say people don't experience these types IRL and it morphs their opinions, my sister is this stereotype and is pretty fucking stupid and she will get into heated debates on Facebook about stuff she has no idea about. She'll read a headline and form a whole mindset of bullshit around it and never verify if it was just a click bait article posted to Facebook to get ad revenue with no concept of journalist integrity. It's really difficult talking to her about anything political because even though I'm pretty liberal/progressive myself, she'll just say things that are factually wrong and when I try to talk to her about it she takes it as me disagreeing and won't listen to reason or logic outside of her preconceived image of reality. Very difficult person

I often have to look at her and remind myself that people like her are a very small portion of the population and aren't really indicative of the masses.

How well does proton work on Nvidia GPUs now days?

I'm really tried of windows as a whole and would like to get away from that ecosystem. There's really nothing keeping me there other than I've been told gaming on Nvidia is still way behind, but that might have changed

At this point I really only watch ACG, he seems the most honest out of them all.

Seems like most reviews are afraid to say bad stuff about a game until the general consensus has turned against it.

They make money from this, and I think many feel they'll be locked out of getting review copies if they don't "play ball" with these companies.

I think anyone who reviewed it should publish a secondary videos explaining this.

This seems like it's legitimately false advertising

Just a tangent, how long until game companies use AI voice synth to make us think we're playing with real people?

Public education has gone down hill. Reading comprehension is at an all time low

One language

Godot has native support for 3 languages and community support currently built for like 6 other languages.

If you don't add comments, even rudimentary ones, or you don't use a naming convention that accurately describes the variables or the functions, you're a bad programmer. It doesn't matter if you know what it does now, just wait until you need to know what it does in 6 months and you have to stop what you're doing an decipher it.

 

I'll be working on my first game jam game, courtesy of my friends' brilliant ideas.

I usually stay out of them because I never could come up with any mechanics, but I asked my non game dev friends and they supplied me with some stuff to bound ideas off of.

I'm excited to use Godot because of how quickly prototyping can be done, and my idea is no more than a prototype really.
