This isn’t even a conversation. You just say random tangentially related bullshit every post. What a waste of time
- Comment on cis friend does witchcraft 15 hours ago:
Sorry I thought you were the other person re painting prayer as more respectable. Still no idea what the point of your whataboutism bullshit was though. You also seem to think I believe in witchcraft, which I don’t. I just don’t give a shit about witchcraft because they aren’t hurting anyone, and the least dangerous Christian is still lending momentum to the Christian nationalists.

You’re making a completely pointless argument. Neither obviously false belief deserves respect and science isn’t required to understand that.
- Comment on cis friend does witchcraft 22 hours ago:
Sure. I think anything that encourages people to believe things that they want to instead of because they’re true opens the way for them to apply that blind faith in other things that matter more, like politics. I do think organized religion is a bit worse because it also teaches subservience to undeserved authority.
Anyway, in the end, I’m waaay more worried about the one that is organized and has power than the people that aren’t bothering anybody and my opinions will reflect that.
- Comment on cis friend does witchcraft 23 hours ago:
Then don’t try to paint one as somehow more respectable? Or better yet just don’t respond to a comment if you don’t want to follow a side conversation? What a weird reply

The mechanism in both cases is that the practitioner does ritual and stuff happens because magic. Who gives a fuck what the magic is???

At least witches aren’t angling for a theocracy.

Like cool you feel that way about windows I guess but you’re spreading misinformation

The fact they keep trying harder and harder to make me switch off a local account is reason enough.
- Comment on What are your favorite metroidvanias? 2 weeks ago:
Absolute favorite is probably either Bloodstained or Castlevania Portrait of Ruin. Every Metroid and Castlevania is good though. Ender Lilies, Shantae, Momodora and Alwa are some other ones I’ve really liked off the top of my head.
Not Hollow Knight, which thinks it’s clever to not fill out the map as you go unless you happen to pick the path the map dude is on. Makes me feel like my time isn’t respected which is a pet peeve of mine. Also other than bosses the combat is boring and repetitive and you don’t get stronger fast enough for revisiting areas to not be a slog.
I mostly play on PC these days but historically it was Nintendo consoles. I like exploring maps.

Corporate greed.

The joke is officially dead when you force someone 3 layers above you to demand “why did Galactica go down over the weekend, who is responsible?!”.
On the contrary, that’s the best thing that could possibly happen.

That one is fun because it’s so fundamental that everyone that takes developmental biology in college gets you read about it
- Comment on "Can i ask you for a favor?" Is it rude to say no? 4 weeks ago:
I’d say something like “uhhh what’s up?” or “maybe?” and let them ask a specific question since saying yes sort of feels like agreeing to do the favor without knowing what it is first.

As a kid my mom kept a list of questions and we looked them up in the encyclopedias at the library every weekend, and a lot of people with more money had encyclopedia sets at home. So people could get information but it took a little effort and wasn’t instant

Polygraph is basically just there so there interviewer can say the polygraph says you’re lying and try to get you to say what that want to.

It’s old lunacy. Believe it or not we live in a class based society where the vast majority of the people that actually provide value to society have their labor stolen by leeches that make money by having money and that is what that person means by the investor class.
- Comment on DOOM: The Dark Ages Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 1 Million Copies 1 month ago:
I didn’t even look at it enough to know if I’d buy it otherwise when I saw it has denuvo. Always online DRM is a hard pass for me. I haven’t played the last 3 games Atlus released either and I’ve been playing almost every one since the ps2 era.
- Comment on Software engineer lost his $150K-a-year job to AI—he’s been rejected from 800 jobs and forced to DoorDash and live in a trailer to make ends meet 1 month ago:
Earlier this year, the CEO of Anthropic Dario Amodei predicted that more software jobs will soon go by the wayside. By September, he said AI will be writing 90% of the code; moreover, “in 12 months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code,” he tells the Council on Foreign Relations.
Sure, Jan
This is drawing lines between the job market and AI that probably aren’t there. We’re just in the beginning of an economic downturn.
- Comment on Who Is ‘Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves’ For? Following Abysmal Sales, SNK's CEO Will Transition to an Advisory Role 1 month ago:
I was excited until they put real people in it. So they lost at least one sale trying to mainstream it (and probably paid out the nose to do so)

I don’t think it will pass this time… but people were telling me roe v Wade was safe when I was raising alarms a decade ago and now look where we are. The theocrats and facists mean what they say and they’re way more persistent and capable than Peel people give them credit for.

Just like all the other horrible shit that’s happened that “will never happen” amirite

Business leadership is a club with a specific culture. To be in the club you have you drink the cool aid, so unfortunately most of them have the same mentality

- Comment on What game do you really want to play, but haven't yet because you feel it in your soul that it will get a remake/remaster soon enough? 3 months ago:
Makes sense, though unlike zero mission i suspect it would essentially be a graphical update more than a remake. Gameplay-wise dread isn’t that different from super

Lol plenty of stuff with Mary sues comes out including in anime and nobody cares (except you apparently)
- Comment on What is the point of the Nicole spam? 3 months ago:
If their claim is so preposterous then why are they providing sources and you’re not. Writing longer and longer walls of text and being more and more disrespectful isn’t going to convince anyone. If you have evidence just provide it instead of insisting is exists.
- Comment on What is the point of the Nicole spam? 3 months ago:
Provide the evidence?

More like he was one person in a company and gets all the credit because society can’t fathom that anybody other than the leech on top has the impact they really do
