  Im not sure if witcher 3 was hyped but I recently played and did not get passed a few of the initial quests before I yawned out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you lose your memories, are "you" dead? If a close relative/friend lose their memories, are they still "your relative/friend"? What the hell even is memory? How sentimental are you about memories?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Im. Well. Old. I mean not super old but I have passed a half century. I have come to the realization that I have a been a different person throughout my life and I can’t say for sure if I even know past versions of me with clarity. I feel I need to point out that I am an unusually static person. Like while I physically change people will comment how Im kinda the same. Which kinda bowls me over when I think about who I was. When I was in gradeschool I could barely talk to other kids. In high school my look changed as I started doing what I decided to do in terms of dress and such and while I was not talkative with people I did not know was very talkative with those who I did but I would interact with other people and did drama and model un. In college I did a bit more drama and got back into choral things and mock trial. In the work world I give presentations and training seminars and between jobs I substitute taught. I got married and I mean I change a lot. But I also didn’t. There is some semblance of self and way of doing things that im pretty sure would be there even if my memory were wiped. I would over think things and gravitate to certain subjects and I bet my likes and dislikes would gravitate in the same direction. Without memories though I would not know my past selves. It makes me sorta get the buddhist thing about what comes forward in rebirth. Its something but its hard to say its anything tangible but it just may well be like the periods in the lives we live. We are the same but we are not the same.

  yeah but I would like 3 positions of relative equal power.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you all not notice there are NO communist countries?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I really wish the founding fathers had split the executive into a tribunal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you all not notice there are NO communist countries?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean there are many countries that call themselves communist. Seems like really early on lenin was trying but he ultimately had to start dictating to get things done. cuba after castro may come closest. hard to say.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did Border Control exist in previous eras? (Say, like 500+ years ago or more) Can people go to other places? If so, what does the procedure look like? Just walk across a border?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  alls that really mattered before a certain point was taxation. I would not be surprised if some contested areas had tax collectors from two different countries collecting from the peasants. The fuedal system was essentally a way to organize tax collection. Local lords collected form the territory they were given dominion over and they had to kick it up the chain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Steam Controller's stick is upgradeable!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  eyup. upgradeable and obviously repairable but in case anyone missed that conclusion its one of the reason the steamdeck is so great. its like the fairphone game system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Aight. Let's be honest. How many of you dress for yourselves, and how many dress for others?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  both my wife and I dress for ourselves. She used to do more for others but my lazyness has worn off on her. She effected me a bit to as she used a lot of cheap fashion and now I wear the pants equivalent of tshirts if im not wearing shorts and tshirt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does the GOP think “ANTIFA” is bad?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  same reason they think vaccines are bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Game developers desperate for you to join their Discord "server"⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  for like pen and paper role playing it can be nice when you have rooms for particular games but I agree for video games I rather have forums. I mean if its an mmo or such I can chat in game and if its not then I don’t see any point to chating.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When did Cash for Chritianity become a thing? When even Jesus the son of god wouldn't stand for it in a church? If they preach why don't they practice from the bible?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  “1-877-Kunts-4-Kriste, K-U-N-T Kunts for Kriste, 1-877-Kunts-4-Kriste, Donate your kash today!”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it me or does it seem like review bombing on Steam has become so much worse recently?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I honestly have never looked at the review section. I only get guides there because its practically the only place for some games

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people hate reality?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Natures about the only thing I like in our reality.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When did Cash for Chritianity become a thing? When even Jesus the son of god wouldn't stand for it in a church? If they preach why don't they practice from the bible?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean I grew up with the tammy fay baker stuff so way before my time and im old.

  Every year my head hair grows slower and my everywhere else hair grows quicker.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨do you remember a time when societies were so polarized and shifted so much to the right like today? How long did it last?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  thanks. reminded me to check.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨do you remember a time when societies were so polarized and shifted so much to the right like today? How long did it last?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  To be accurate you need like 5 figures. far right, far left, moderate right, moderate left, and me. Then you have moderate right in the second panel move to far right and have far right go further right on the third one. Then the bubble for the moderate right in the third would be looking to the far right and going. wait for me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨do you remember a time when societies were so polarized and shifted so much to the right like today? How long did it last?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So at most we are talking a bit over 200 years that might be relevant to this. Just fyi if this is unique its not been a possibility for very long history wise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Long is Too Long for a Reply?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that arose at some point but I to had commented on very old reddit posts. in the early 20teens.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Long is Too Long for a Reply?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to me man. Sure no one but the OP will see it but who cares im not here to posture.

  Sorta. Its why you sorta lose a person to demetia. Even with retrograde amnesia I have heard a persons personality. Likes, dislikes, etc. Do not change. So there is something a bit more to a person.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of October 5th⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah the controls are not bad. I did take it off. Honestly its an rpg where I have to be in a character class that im not big on basically. I like the horse mechanisms and such. Would sorta like fast travel from anywhere to the markers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do boycotts work?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  For me it sorta does not matter. When I boycott usually the thing disgusts me and any revenue less for them and more for their competitors especially in regards to how I act (consume) is important to me. Because its my actions. Like there is a lot of indication that the plastic recycling I do likely does not get recycled, but im still going to stubbornly do it. If I was in europe I would totally do the buy european. Will it change what trump is doing, unlikely, but it will help europe gdp over us.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of October 5th⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  playing the witcher but I sorta don’t like it. thinking of dropping it and pal world and bringing in the next biggest (in disk size) onto my steamdeck.

  Everyone knows the fbi fucked up and his dad handed him in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would a wealth tax affect real estate rentals?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  thats one good thing about high property taxes including the land value tax idea. Makes it harder to sit on real estate because of the recurring costs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would a wealth tax affect real estate rentals?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone who buys is not longer a renter. So for every rental lost you lose a renter. I don’t see why it would effect it at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If A.I. is so fast and efficient, and CEOs are paid so much, why not replace CEOs with A.I.?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Its likely the only use case that would actually pay off and it makes sense as the board of directors can have it made and maybe even do a lot of chief and vp stuff.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If A.I. is so fast and efficient, and CEOs are paid so much, why not replace CEOs with A.I.?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  the llc is a legal entity and has all those powers and even free speech now. no human needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are the character names in most Anime real Japanese names or just made up?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I always wonder about this and whole this is how its spelled thing.
