We’re sneaky. I call it effective authoritarianism, it’s a sugar coated baton

Creationism is pretty much rooted in religious fundamentalism, ofc it requires an act of absolute faith against clear evidences. Faith based learning is its defining feature.

I know this screeshot is as old as the internet because of that toilet. Still embarassing.

No one will lament the removal of No Mercy from sale on Steam, but whenever a net like this is thrown over an entire area of perceived problematic content, there will be well-intentioned games caught in the net too. Specifically, LGBTQ+ games are under threat - games that don’t align with the Christian values underpinning the pressure group Collective Shout.

In the article that you claimed to read…

Unironically it will bring more people to dark corners of the net, foul content was always free. Now i’m not going for these games, but also comparing the entire nsfw genre to specific games is disingenuous. At the same time violence and shocking real life images are fine, right?

Nsfw involves adult themes that aren’t sexual.

That means censoring the self expression of consenting adults.

This creates a huge bottleneck that eventually just leads to this growing in the back of the visible. Porn addiction is a problem, sure. How did pre-teens gain access to this content? Didn’t parents give them a fully capable computer at all times?

Back when i used a computer, I only had access to research and office, also flash games. Other than that I had other devices and offline games, on cd.

Modern devices have better parental controls but nobody uses them, old computers had virtually none. Turns out you can do your parenting.

The dangers of this privacy invasive solution is the exposure of personal ID to questionable places, while bringing people towards bad places, that don’t ask for things.

Kinda like pirating a game as a kid, because you couldn’t buy it, but you only got viruses afterwards. Same deal.

It’s meant to be read like a boris skit, than it works flawlessly.

Aiming for the shade i see…

It was due to the actual active minefields in certain region of the EU. But i was always so confused by that name. ‘Prato fiorito’ does it mean that if I step on the flowers i explode? This is what i thought back than.

The kraft cheese has always been a cursed product if you ever touched real cheesemaking. Fair reaction.

You have the level of understanding of a redditor.

Luanti is good for the user made games. So many of them, there’s one decent backrooms game too, I know there are rare finds.

But, minecraft is unkillable and unreplacable. I play with a tombstone and a minimap addon. I also have a herobrine mod that isn’t from the fog, and apparently herobrine likes to charge creepers so the early game was difficult.

There is an lotr game for luanti you should check it.

Luanti has a questionable menuing is awful. Survival craft has a better system and that’s one game you completely forgot. I personally like it but it’s mostly actual survival, like hunting and trying not to die to feral beasts. The night in survival craft is terrifying.

But vintage story is where you want to be. It’s gaining momentum.

If you want to play old minecraft either try multimc or betacraft launcher, that version of the game is also unique.

I hate everyone and everything at this stage.

Apparently the platform operated as some sort of gossipping/reporting system where unaware men and guys could be posted, so they could basicallly do the same thing that happened to them, all on one if the most unsafe system possible.

Honestly I see this as a consequence of their own actions mostly the database was unprotected. Their purpose was to document men behind their back. Turns out it backfired.

I know. Unless you have really humid and rusty doors you shouldn’t even need lubrification. I personally I have never needed precise lubrification for doors. But that wd40 oh yes i needed it.

I absolutely don’t go asking around if you believe. And i can’t legally carry swords. Or battle axes. Or even knives in general.

This sewing machine / small mechanism oil is absolutely overkill for the job you’re doing. Some small wd40 usually does it. Fun fact: this is also a good way to keep your tools rust free! It functions well on preventing rust.

Edit: it’s not mineral oil or synthetic lubrificant is it?

I have recipe books from that era and most of them are either excellent and timeless learning resources, or dubious cookbooks with characters that look like they want to poison me. No in between.

I’m either good enough to play a game rather good or absolutely painfully unaware of how to handle it, I don’t have the time to be hateful towards other players at all, not that I want that.

Sometimes you just need to change game or stop playing before acting like a terrible person. Nobody is that terrible they usually learn it. Competitive games are breeding ground for this logic as they reward toxicity more or less openly.

If you’re turned off by this, good. It means you have standards. I know we like to keep mentioning these mw2 lobbies, but in comparison with this they were tame. The hatred on these platforms feels more real than what it used to be.

Having public social media can be useful. And it was always possible even before (oh yes MySpace). My issue is having this eternal access as a proof of existance on you all the time. I am fine with the idea of having a public life, what triggers me is the normalisation of surveillance from subjects who never had the concept of being surveillance actors in the first place.

Not to mention, how many abusive partners are already using this feature already? I guess many more than just jealus couples. Airtags had the same problems, but thera are apps to let you spot them, even than they’re an invasive technology. Position sharing can be invasive too. Even voluntary sharing is probably worse than we think.

There are few cases where i can think this as a useful feature, like incidents or other unspecified situations.

The one thing that stands out is that this is active constantly. It’s not situational. The article doesn’t do a good job at detailing the possible abuses of the function but they’re there, they were the same with gps trackers and airtags. Gps devices are notoriously expensive relative to these alternatives so nowadays only a certain person would use them.
