Doubtful. But that could let it be an r rated or high pg13 option.

And this is why i,won’t start paying them money. They will never be content and will just keep pushing ads further and further.
- Comment on Serious statement: I don't understand the argument that not voting for Harris was the morally correct thing to do, because of Gaza. Why does anyone believe this? 1 week ago:
Morality is most definitely subjective. Talk to different groups around the globe and you’ll find different moral boundaries. The morals posed by Islam differ from christianity, which differ from buddhism, which all differ from nihilistic views, and still further diverge from tribal morals of small secluded tribes of people. While they shouldn’t be based on emotion, they do tend to be reactionary and emotional at their outset. And breaking them within any particular group tends to get you strong emotional responses.

Boring answer:Because it’s a game made by humans. Same reason the na’vi from avatar have boobs.

Trump supporters outside the us are the absolute weirdest anamoly to me. I barely get why some Americans like him. But seeing avid support for him elsewhere just blows my mind. Good luck though! Rooting for you guys too!

Lol stardew vally in doom clothing killed me. Quite the write up but all I can really say is an unhelpful “everyone likes different stuff”. i like twitch and boomer shooters. I had to wait ages for them to come around again. I had to wade through slow shooters like halo, milshooters, milsims, coverbased shooters, and other stuff that I genuinely don’t enjoy as much until the type I liked most started to resurface with Doom 2016 and the now regrettably named “boomer shooters”. Fast, arcadey, dark themed, with health and ammo drops. I’m not big on some of them but overall I’m in an oasis compared to the drought I endured.
My best advice is patience for it to come around again or to make it yourself if you don’t want to wait.

I’ve often wondered how concerned ya’ll might be. Sorry about the mess. For whatever it is worth, a lot of us are trying to clean it up.

Glad everyone else is enjoying the show at least. Half of us here are terrified we’re about to lose the country to maniacal egotists with a penchant for a bit of racism and monarchy.

Sure thing, if I were in front of my pc I’d have given you more precise instructions but yeah I was elated when I found that setting as I don’t enjoy livestreams even if it’s not a spoiler.

Bullshit. This shit isn’t a bug. It was purposeful as a test to reception and to desensitize people

Yeah I imagine so. That’s a very different scenario and it wouldn’t make sense to ignore a specific group. Getting cold calls from recruiters on LinkedIn is a very different scenario from that and I wouldn’t expect my situation to apply there at all.
- Comment on In honor of the start spooky season (yay!), I have a question about an apparently beloved spooky meme/skit. What about "David S. Pumpkins" is so funny? 1 month ago:
It really varies on the comic. Some drag shit out some don’t. I can’t stand most of Jim Gaffigan’s stuff because he does that shit ad nauseum.

It’s one of my favorite movies out of all. The visuals are fantastic and I really enjoy the story.

The Fall and The Fountain are both excellent visuals and good stories. SuckerPunch is great visuals but it is more niche on whether people enjoy the story.

www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/racism
a belief that race is a fundamental determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
You are talking about prejudice. It’s not the same as racism even though SOME prejudice is based in racism. I have a prejudice based on anecdotal experiences that causes me to avoid Indian names for recruiting unless they are attached to a company I am familiar with and consider a good company.
That’s got nothing to do with any beliefs about their race and everything to do with believing that companies seeking to abuse me have a pattern of hiring Indians.
All that said, you mentioned you are Indian. If you feel this is racist still, then I’m sorry because I really don’t intend that. I truly have no ill will to you, or any others of your race, but whether that’s perceived or not may be a failing on my part somehow whether through poor wording or not being able to see your point of view enough to satisfy you. So i am sorry if this sounded racist. I won’t qualify or equivocate anything further since I’ve endeavored to explain myself to the best of my ability.

Agreed, most are cancer.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Racism implies an opinion of superiority based on race. We both filter based on race because of a systemic issue that overwhelming relies on Indian nationals, not a racial issue. I have no problem with indian recruiters from know good companies. If it were racism that wouldn’t be the case. Using the “slippery slope” as some sort of moral justification to it is just a logical fallacy. Do whatever makes you feel better about it though I guess.

I have a simple rule that’s worked out really well for me to avoid getting recruiters like that. If their name is foreign, I don’t answer. To be clear, this isn’t me “doing a racism”. If they are from a company I’ve worked with and know to be good I’ll still pick up. But generally if they have an Indian name, they are part of a resume farm and not paying any attention. I’ve also started seeing ones from Africa this year that caught me off guard. Tried to talk to a couple before I realized what was going on amd stopped answering any of them. What’s really great is when they use the exact same introduction message.

A good HR prescreen asks more about the fitment/personality of the person. I still think that should be up to the hiring manager because too many HR depts suffer from dunning-kruger and have too much power for a generally way too petty group of people.
