Baldurs gate 3? One of the best games I ever played.

If it’s even an argument and not a simple refutation, I think it’s got to be based on personal anecdote, but it also kinda just sounds like “No, you’re wrong.” with a sprinkle of anecdote or no true Scotsman.
Argument from asininity?

The whole auto tune thing is baffling because he can really sing his ass off.

This is the origin apparently.
RRB: “My calculations are irrelevant on this point. They are only valid in speaking of the shock reflection.” Ogle: “How fast did it go?” RRB: “Those numbers are meaningless. I have only a vacuum above the cap. No air, no gravity, no real material strengths in the iron cap. Effectively the cap is just loose, traveling through meaningless space.” Ogle: And how fast is it going?"
This last question was more of a shout. Bill liked to have a direct answer to each one of his questions. RRB: “Six times the escape velocity from the earth.”

- Comment on Why isn't Putin receiving the same level of hate than people like Trump and Elon are? 4 weeks ago:
I get angrier when I think of Musk or Trump because, bafflingly, my peers have been fooled into giving these frat boys control over parts of my life.
Not so much Putin. Yet.
Granted he is probably more objectively evil.
- Comment on In the US, is this actually the moment past the point of no return? 4 weeks ago:
I hope you’re right. I’ve heard nothing but how weak and poor etc. Russia is but it seems like they have been advancing their plans since Moldova, Georgia, Crimea, Belarus, Ukraine… and only gaining momentum.

They’ve been Russia’s main aid all along. The no limits agreement?

Russia has almost totally shifted to a war-time economy

But they’re not fighting a conventional war. They didn’t invade the US or Belarus on foot.
Once they have Ukraine and US is not supporting NATO it’s not looking good for Europe.
Der Spiegel agrees

It’s a bit like trying to figure out who invented the car but I would tend to agree it’s when people turned their power over to daddy Regan and went shopping after Carter treated them like adults…
Still don’t get what OP meant vis-à-vis Russia and Europe.

What?

I think it’s possibly the end of Western democracy. If Russia and China stroll through Europe with Trump’s help, that’s pretty much it, no?

- Comment on Fields of Mistria is one of the most impressive games I've ever played 2 months ago:
But seriously, Stardew is just remade Harvest Moon or even maybe Animal Crossing. It’s not like it invented the genre.

Yeah, I wouldn’t say history shows humans usually treat outsiders really nicely but I agree this should be an example we strive for.

My father had this album on cassette growing up. I played it so much I wore out the tape. The unicorn song is straight fire.

No, the horse.

There’s lots of other guys there that got ignored too. He’s only famous because of the basic gear and whole steeze like he could replace Liam Neeson in the next Taken.

Evidence of a false dichotomy to me!

Not to be pedantic but I would call them more of a science denier than a skeptic. It’s too close to scientific skepticism which is completely different.
