Disregarding the extremely baby brained 50 year old man: How is Bethesda getting worse with their UI in every single no iteration?

Half the screen is empty space despite the sliders being smaller than in the original, and not even some flavor text? It looks like a cheap mmo with generic assets. Oblivion’s graphics were ass, but at least the lighting built nice atmosphere, the remake looks washed out and boring

Autocannon to Full armor is actually a downgrade, you should never buy that tech in competitive play. You lose too much mobility and fire rate for what, an extra +2 pierce armor? What a joke. But the rocket path is crazy overpowered, despite only two tiers

I know dedicated MLs who are good on almost everything, then come out with the shittiest takes related to trans people

This is exactly my take on Severance as well. I really loved S1 but got bored out of my mind and straight up frustrated with S2.

That’s a mouse though.

Rats usually can handle choking on their own. While they can’t burp or vomit, they have super complex throat muscles and can slowly back up a blocker object to clear the airways. But it wouldn’t surprise me if they also did first aid like the mice

Grooming is a heavily social behavior in rodents, so my guess is that it is used as a simple wellness check, to see how the choking party reacts and how severe the problem is

The biggest problem with AC Shadows is the perfect Japanese Assassin’s Creed game already came out. This studio called Mimimi Productions (two words, pronounced phonetically) came out of nowhere in 2016 and released this game called Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, then just dipped off the face of the earth.

It does everything an assassin’s creed game does, but better. And no one knows where they came from or has heard from them since.

Okay but for real Shadow Tactics is great, even if not really like AC. It’s more like a feudal Japan Commandos game.

There are valid critiques of China and I’m personally on the more “ultra” side with my org not liking the CPC, but seeing shit like this makes me embrace Dengism wholeheartedly. It’s honestly just fucking racism all the way

I had a similar experience, sans jail and FBI. During a family gathering, I argued with my father that poor people should not be poor and jobs exploit us all. He’s like “this sounds just like some run of the mill Marx and Engels”.

So then I read Marx and Engels and now I want to destroy the West

There are a few ML parties in Europe that have technically participated in elections (though more as an instrument of agitprop rather that to actually win), I bet they are referencing those and not just being a lib

You’re right on the money there’s already a lot of focus on “poor isolated white swedes”, nothing on the fash narratives soaking every corner of society

The “personal ownership” is already commodifying the animal, and the “well cared for” part is bullshit, chickens kept for laying can not be well cared for by definition, as the modern breeds are literally slowly killing themselves through nutrient depletion. Such chickens can only thrive if they for example are stopped from laying (e.g. with hormonal implants), which negates the very reason a person like that would keep them. Then, the very motive for keeping the animals in the first place will eventually drive a small scale farmer to compromise on the conditions, because keeping animals alive is not cheap in on itself.

And don’t give me this shit about “not caring about animals” and “lashing out”, you literally wrote the most stereotypical anti-vegan slop just because I said people should eat beans rather than commodify animals

What are you even talking about, “long standing peace” and “harassment campaigns”? They started posting eating memes about dogs and local scratched anti-vegans tried to turn it into an anti-asian hate thing when there was no such element there at all. That was the “campaign”. It’s like calling out people who post cracker memes for doing “harassment campaigns”

Holy shit, a bona fide anti-vegan reactionary on hb, I thought yall went silent back when vcj migrated here

Or don’t, eat beans instead of exploiting non-human comrades

I didn’t even go through HR for my last two jobs, it’s as if the positions were completely pointless. Only contact I had with them was ordering vegan refreshments for various company events

Self driving cars are still not “done”, it seems like most big manufacturers work on them and it’s still hot. I’ve worked on one such project for a huge global company, and I’m about to start working on another, this time open source and for a university. Kinda sucks if this is what becomes my niche then dies off lol

They are machines, so I rage against them

I have zero media literacy

Many wine-based alcohols are non-vegan due to animal products being used for clarification. As far as I understand, it’s often “cheaper” in the same sense that HFCS is cheaper to use in place of sugar in food - subsidies make a shitty side product viable instead of better alternatives.

I brew beer as a hobby and my go-to clarifier is irish moss, a type of kelp, and it works great.

They use gelatin to clarify it
