Sure, in the same way that using 4chan doesn’t make you a racist. But neither of these things fill me with confidence.

Queen elizabeth and margaret thatcher are not held in the highest regard so this isn’t a super gotcha. I wouldn’t say that “means” they’re paedophiles but it doesn’t make me think they’re not

Just because things are the way they have been for ages, does not mean they are correct.
It is a brutal, awful practice and completely unnecessary.
I am not being condescending or pretentious when I say these things. I understand that it is very, very hard to alter what you’ve done your entire life, and harder still to see the issues with those things.
Those 8bn humans could be sustained by a fraction of the environmental impact, suffering to life, and land usage if they were on a plant based diet.

Toby Fox was forced to add trophies to the PlayStation release of undertale and deltarune, and made them oppressively annoying in protest, so I feel like there are exceptions to this

So in other words you had nothing to add to what we were actually talking about and decided you wanted to talk about something else instead?

Nobody said there shouldn’t be consequences, but they have been labeled as terrorists, which is not a fair or correct response.

Nothing they did makes them terrorists, no matter what you think of the action they took

Sure, but how do you eat your popcorn?
Also eating the half popped kernels is absolutely a phase. Especially if it involves gradually lowering your standards of what a half popped kernel is until youre just biting off the point of the kernels

Heh what a trolly problem indeed
- Comment on Jigsaw Trolley Problem 3 weeks ago:
Hmm, you’re quite right. My intuition is that the Bayesian portion would exactly offset the Monty hall portion. I think, at a glance, Bayes would give door 1 a 2/3 probability of having 6 gold, but Monty Hall would give door 2 the same probability, so we can effectively cancel these out and just consider a raw probability
You either have 5 gold or 2 gold 3 silver behind door 1, and 6 gold or 3 and 3 behind door 2, which gives door 2 a very slight edge. Does that check out?

The ball grid problem
Albert knows that Albert doesn’t know where the ball is, and also knows that Bernard doesn’t know where the ball is, which means the ball is in a row where every ball has another ball in its column, which narrows it to C or D The information that the ball must be in C or D is enough to exactly select the ball given knowledge of the column, which makes it either C3, D2 or D4 The information that Albert knows which cell it is once Albert knows that Bernard knows means that it must be C3 because if it was a D cell then Albert would still not know C3 is the ball that was pulled from door 1, thus there was a gold ball behind door 1
Monty hall problem
Which means we dont know whether there were 6 or 3 gold behind door 1, which means its essentially a slightly different Monty Hall problem The first door either has 2 gold balls (and 3 silver) behind it or 5 gold balls, and the second door either has 3 gold balls and 3 silver or 6 gold balls The second door has a 66% chance of having 6 gold balls (guaranteed gold) and a 33% chance of having 3/3 The first door has a 66% chance of 2/3 and a 33% chance of 5 (guaranteed gold) Thus door 1 has a 2/3x2/5 + 1/3 = 3/5 chance of you pulling a gold ball Door 2 has a 2/3 + 1/3x1/2 = 5/6 chance of pulling a gold ball You should switch doors to maximise your chance of being allowed to swap tracks

- Comment on What are your favorite metroidvanias? 4 weeks ago:
I have to recommend Ascent DX - it is free, quite short, but it condenses everything I enjoy about the metroidvania genre I to a bite sized play session.
Tunic is one of the best games ever made, nevermind just in the metroidvania genre
Phoenotopia Awakening was stupendous fun and way bigger than I thought it would be. Strongly recommended.
Death’s Door was so damn fun, and it felt quite fresh in a way I can’t describe
AAAAXY was a lot of fun, and free and open source. Sort of like antichamber meets metroidvania
Otherwise, as others mentioned, I can’t recommend these enough!:
Hollow Knight
Ori And The Blind Forest/Will Of The Wisps

The term is strictly only applied to those formed from one carpel, but is sometimes used for those formed from two carpels
It is strictly only applied to ones with one carpel, but is used anyway to refer to ones with two carpels? That’s not confusing at all

“I guess it wasn’t a safe space for autistic people” is an insane takeaway from being temp banned for talking about people fucking their mothers and how people downvoting you arouses you (on a thread about not using a right wing hate symbol).
As an autistic person I’m baffled you’d try to hide behind your neurodivergence here.
