• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How can people with ADHD possibly enjoy movies if they daydream and can't focus on the movie?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I daydream a lot when I watch film and TV. It’s usually about me self-inserting myself into the story. So, while I daydream, I “follow” what’s happening on the screen.

  I still enjoy the stuff I watch when this happens. Plus, this mainly happens during parts of the film/show I enjoy, like fight scenes or confrontations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the smartest non boss enemy in a video game⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Not necessarily smart, but very aware: a lot of NPCs in Red Dead Redemption 2.

  They’ll often comment about Aurther when his clothes are bloody, dirty, he has long facial hair, etc. One of the NPCs in your main camp will complain if you stay in the camp for a while.

  It really makes the world feel alive.

  Looks real interesting, and it’s on Steam. Definitely wishlisting. Thanks!

  I though The Crew got delisted? Wasn’t that what the SKG was about?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Open-World Games with Drivable Motorbikes?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think Skyrim has motorbikes (also I already have it), unless you’re talking about mods.

  I checked out the game’s store page, and it looks interesting. Definitely wishlisting it!

  I just tried to mod Skyrim earlier, but doing so on Linux is really painful.

  Mod Organizer 2 (MO2) runs fine under Proton, but it doesn’t support collections, so I would need to manually install hundreds of mods, which is not worth my time.

  As for Vortex, I couldn’t even get it to install.

  So, I gave up on modded Skyrim. For comparison, on Windows: It’s click, install, done. I wish it was the same on Linux under proton.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Games like Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll definitely look into this. Thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Games like Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Palworld isn’t bad, but I feel like it doesn’t respect my time with how grindy it is. It’s about as grindy as some major MMOs, which isn’t what I’m looking for right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Games like Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I checked out the demo and it seems good. Some controller issues and gameplay issues (Bow aiming sensitivity is too high), but otherwise quite cozy.

  Nintendo Switch

  Mario Odyssey was fine, but I didn’t really see the use for a portable slab compared to a pocket-size device like my phone or the 3DS. Also, this was the first Nintendo device that felt completely soulless. At least the Wii U had some charm to it.

  Yeah, to me all of these scream “Run tf away, go inside and don’t come back out until tomorrow.” (I am deafly afraid of bees)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you actually tax the ultra wealthy?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, there’s probably a better set of formulas to use.

  The main idea behind my idea is that people who make more pay more, whereas people who make less pay less. Additionally, those who don’t make money pay no tax as it works out mathematically.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you actually tax the ultra wealthy?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A potential mathematical approach to equal taxation that works in any country:

  1. Calculate the average income of every citizen. Let A = the average income (amount per year)
  2. Set a baseline tax amount for the average (e.g. 10%). Let P = baseline tax percentage
  3. Given a person’s income, calculate how far above or below they are compared to the average. Let I = a person’s income. We can calculate the difference, D, with D = I - A. A positive value means the person’s income is above average, whereas negative is below.
  4. Calculate the difference as a percentage. Let Q = D / A
  5. Calculate the percentage of the tax percentage. This will determine how much more or less a person will have to pay: R = Q * P
  6. Finally, calculate the person’s unique tax amount: T = P + R. If R was a positive value, that means the person will pay more. If R was a negative value, they pay less. If R = 0, they pay the base amount.

  Example: Let’s say the average income per year is $50,000 USD, and the baseline tax rate is 10%

  So A =50,000 and P = 10% / 100 = 0.1

  Given a person’s income: $30,000/yr:

  I = 30,000

  Calculate the difference:

  D = 30,000 – 50,000 = –20,000 Q = –20,000 / 50,000 = –0.4 (–40%)

  Calculate how much more/less the person pays:

  R = –0.4 * 0.1 = –0.04 (–4%)

  Calculate the unique tax amount:

  T = 0.1 + (–0.04) = 0.1 – 0.04 = 0.6 (6%)

  There might be a better set of formulas, but this is what I came up with. Let me know if I made a mistake in my math.
