Today’s liberals are so deep in the “end of history” bullshit that they actually believe the very concept of a revolution is “fantasyland”

I couldn’t have satirized your position better if I’d tried.

Guillotine the educated king and the drunk president as far as I’m concerned. If the king’s really so smart he’ll renounce his title when the guillotine comes out and the bloodshed can be avoided, so it’s a win all around.

All monarchs are parasitic scum.

Gears and Halo were the big exclusives for a long time.

I’m not going to use some weird alternative url to remove ai crap, just like I’m not going to append -ai or whatever it was to every google search. I’m just not going to use these services at all. Want me as a user? Remove the AI garbage. It’s that simple.

LLMs are dead end tech which is only useful for people who want to do unethical shit. They’re good at lying, making up nonsense, sounding like humans, facilitating scams, and misleading people. No matter how much time and energy is spent developing them, that’s all they’ll ever be good at. They can get better at doing those things, but they’ll never be good at anything actually useful because of the fact that there is no internal logic going on in them. When it tells you the moon is made of various kinds of rock, the exact same thing is happening as when it tells you the moon is made of cheese and bread. It has no way of distinguishing between these two statements. All of its ‘ideas’ are vapor, an illusion, smoke and mirrors. It doesn’t “understand” anything it’s saying, all it does is generate text that looks like something someone who does understand language would say. There is no logic in the background and there cannot be.

The point is Russian Roulette is impossible with a semi-auto since no matter how many rounds you load one is always going to go into the chamber.

I mean denying those things just makes you equivalent to a flat earther. What makes you a doomsday cult leader is being on board with the “China is collapsing!!!” nonsense even though we’re on the 100th failed prediction already.

I know the reading comprehension skills of flat earthers and doomsday cultists tend to be stunted so I’m being patient with you.

Doesn’t it bother you that you’re wrong all the time? Don’t you think that after 15 failed “China is LITERALLY COLLAPSING RIGHT NOW” predictions you ought to think about whether your source of information (the CIA) is flawed?

Does it ever occur to you that to a neutral observer you appear identical to a doomsday cult leader on his latest “Um, well, I guess I was wrong, but the world really is ending next month” pivot?

What kind of complicated issue? Simply adding them as non-steam games seems to work fine. I’ve managed to get jank ass pirated 90s visual novels running, fan-patched, on a steam deck lmao

McAfee was a perfectly competent programmer in the 80s and 90s. I think by the time most people heard of him he had already fried the part of his brain responsible for programming with copious amounts of every drug.

I’d still take him over Musk any day.

You’ve gotta take the first step yourself, no one can do that for you.

Or don’t. Be a shutin. Fear the mailman. Die a virgin. I’m not your boss.

Don’t get me wrong I’m no stranger to our lord and savior Fargoth, bosmer bussy, or Nords and their secret wives. The Elder Scrolls is fantastic because you can simultaneously take it so seriously and … do whatever it is we lore nerds get up to.

I got banned from reddit last week for “threatening violence” basically because my comment contained the word “die.” It wasn’t a verb.

Reddit is super aggressive with this shit now. If you say “Don’t drink bleach, that would kill you.” Their AI bullshit just sees “kill you” and bans you for threats.

Site is fucking useless, don’t even bother at this point. It’s mostly robots talking to other robots at this point anyway.

CHIM isn’t really meta like that. It is a state of enlightenment achieved after coming to terms with the fact that the Elder Scrolls setting exists within the ‘dream’ of a godhead. The godhead is a mysterious and high order entity, think Lovecraftian gods, which isn’t really sleeping and dreaming in the way we normally think of it.

Typically when one comes to understand the nature of the dream they inhabit, they vanish, becoming one with the dream in a process known as zero-summing. It essentially means coming to the conclusion that all things within the dream are one and the same, that the individual is an illusion.

CHIM is achieved by facing this fate and asserting that, though all reality is a dream, your existence as an individual with thoughts and feelings and agency within the dream matters and is valid. Some suggest this state confers great power, such as the ability to reshape the landscape or perform miracles, like when one lucid dreams. However, I find this position poorly supported. Rather, CHIM seems best viewed as one form of enlightenment, a state achieved through great wisdom and insight but which brings with it no particular power. Vivec can be slain, after all, and relies on his connection to the Heart of Lorkhan to exercise divine power.

But do they have to submit a request if they tell the audience “fuck it, this is now a sub about X, we’ll remove everything that’s not about X”?

No that just isn’t allowed. I’m not joking, the admins have removed entire mod teams and installed new ones because the mod teams decided to change the topic of the sub.
