- Comment on What's a TV series you've tried repeatedly to get into, but can't? 2 hours ago:
I haven’t watched it in many years, but I do know that apparently him abusing of Morty is actually supposed to be bad and it’s a whole major plot point later on

What movie is this?
- Comment on Rule 34 rule 1 week ago:
Having taken care of many children, I strongly disagree. Not just punching someone rather than talking it out is a learned thing that’s also reinforced by society (for the most part).
If there wasn’t an innate violence within humans, human history would look very different, and fascism wouldn’t exist.
Also, both processes can activate the adrenal axis actually. It’s not totally different, and there’s some similarities.
- Comment on Rule 34 rule 1 week ago:
No clue, but for what it’s worth we know violent video games don’t cause more violence and some studies show they can even reduce it at least so I’d imagine it would extrapolate similarly to other visual media
- Comment on Why does (human) organ trafficking exist? 1 week ago:
So a lot of people here don’t realize that any kind of transplant outside of a waiting list is considered a trafficked organ (excluding Iran). Or how cheap it is.
I had kidney failure for many years (btw, being young doesn’t help with wait times except unless maybe if you’re a kid in some cases).
At some point after some years, my dad (who still has a Facebook) started asking for help for a kidney donor (for the swap program thing, basically you donate to someone else on a chain), and immediately started getting messages from people in places like the Philippines “willing” to sell their kidneys. In quotations because you never know how willing they actually are, and even if not under direct pressure, I’d say extreme poverty is still a forceful pressure.
Regardless, the prices they were asking for? Between 5-15k$.
You’d think it would cost more than a used car, but apparently not. I scolded him for even thinking about it - explained that just because you can live with 1 kidney, you’re still more prone to kidney failure yourself now.
I ended up on dialysis for a little over 8 years and essentially lost my 20s to that, but at least when I finally got a transplant I didn’t have to deal with any guilt (came from someone who was braindead - wear your dang bicycle helmets people).
And I’m glad I never even considered that offer - apparently I was destined to get an aggressive cancer after a kidney transplant because I’m part of a very rare estimated 5% of the world population never exposed to an extremely common virus (Epstein-Barr). That cancer would likely not have been caught by an overseas doctor who is doing shady surgeries, and I’d be dead anyways.
So maybe karma does exist (in the psychological/outcome sense at least). I got the good karma and Steve Jobs got the dumbass karma (look up the details of his liver transplant and death. I want to point out, he must’ve been a true asshole to not have a willing live donor for a liver transplant, as it’s actually the easiest of them all to get).

It affects your aging by 1,042x as much as the speed used. Careful, or you’ll either become dust or Benjamin Button yourself.

It messes with your memory severely and the more you use the power the more severe a temporally caused form of schizophrenia you develop becomes as well.
- Comment on Let's play this game again 1 week ago:
This irritates your intestines terribly every time you use it, causing you to be the one to have to cancel every time tho, or play the session in agonizing pain and very frequent bathroom trips

The devices summoned are of so bad quality that even attempting to use it will cause it to break.
As for the first one, using said magic will change your brain chemistry so you become a hyper aggressive, far right leaning man.

I mean, gain that lifestyle and it already comes with plenty of bad side effects anyway I suppose?

That currency collapses and becomes worthless
- Comment on List of Fan (OpenSource) Ports/Remakes of Games 1 week ago:
I’d just say it’s an inspiration and say it’s a standard era 4x game. Graphically it’s a demake, but the cpu opponents are superior to those from V I’d say

He also invented the destructodisc, which is what technically felled Frieza the first time, and works even on enemies as strong as perfect cell. It’s just that cell has crazy regeneration.

Could be useful for reverse engineering and decompilation though no?

Soooo, just curious but, instead of modding, why didn’t you just set your console region to Japan? That’s what I did. Just seems a lot easier.
