I love how broken and unbalanced the first game is. Looking forward to ragdolling from wild animals while my character freezes to death again

You missed the part where you zone out and replay arguments you had years ago. But this time you’re smarter and always win

Some people push it like that, but that’s not really what the observation is about. It’s meant to highlight that it’s not preordained. Life is mostly made up and we should learn to acknowledge that openly. Especially when aspects of that made-up-ness actively oppress people

- Comment on The kiwi fruit sold as "red kiwi" 4 months ago:
I mean it sounds like OP maybe didn’t know that. 'sides it sets an expectation that the majority of the interior would be red, rather than the opposite

Or as I like to think of it: with better naming schemes
- Comment on Slap a "quantum" on it = Instant flux capacitor 5 months ago:
Having to explain to your parent that yes physics requires math and that yes being a physicist is a job that requires years of dedication to fully appreciate is wild. Also, physicists are just bad at naming things, so no your brain doesn’t change reality around it because it has eye holes attached to it

- Comment on Why the original, 1999 version of EverQuest is still one of the best MMOs to play today 6 months ago:
For anyone who wants to get into this just know that A) it has aged VERY poorly. There are tons of aspects about the UX that are just terrible and frustrating. And B) it’s better with a group
But if you can get past all that then it’s really fun

Kinda sad really. A generation of people who can’t really relax into the moment

Peace is boring. I want people’s messy ugly opinions about stupid shit that doesn’t matter. It gets me out of bed in the morning

- Comment on This concept for budget double decker airline seating 6 months ago:
Nah they just charge you for not flying
- Comment on This concept for budget double decker airline seating 6 months ago:
I desperately want to take a train anywhere. BUT
A) It always costs at least as much as a plane but often much much more
B) it’s slower than driving!
C) the stops are so limited you basically have to follow major coastal cities or you’re SOL
Literally if any of these three things were changed I would take weekend trips all the time

Yes that’s why I said “total wealth based taxes.” If you want to make a meaningful contribution to the conversation maybe actually read what other people are talking about
- Comment on Saw this on Facebook 😍 7 months ago:
How do you feel about limiting loans against assets and total wealth based taxes?
In general I try to avoid talking about these things because people get touchy and act like the situation is hopeless. Captial Gains taxes does have an affect and it does improve the situation. And obviously what you brought up are clear concerns with how it is often setup today. So I’m interested in how we could continue to make things better in that regard

Most tax programs which apply to capital gains apply to the sell and exchange of the stock. Dividends are also taxed (at least here in the states). So yes, you get taxed no matter what you do unless it’s a net loss
- Comment on Saw this on Facebook 😍 7 months ago:
They do if you have taxes on captial gains :)
- Comment on the internet is worse. 7 months ago:
So the weird thing is you can still do this but only if YouTube thinks your the right audience for it. My grandfather looks up all kinds of old things on YouTube and almost always get exactly what he wants on the first hit. However if I do it it ends up more like your example. Interesting and annoying at the same time

I went through an manually deleted all the content from mine years ago. Would be shocked if it wasn’t mod-removed at this point for being both empty and unused
