Neither, because that would actually require praxis.

Yeah, but as you get older people a certain number of years younger than you start looking like legit children. And personally, I feel like a wider range of life experiences (on average) matter more to women than to men.

But also, this chart is flawed in that we don’t know how many people per age/per gender were asked, how they calculated variation, what the error rate is, or even what the source of the data is. It’s literally just a Microsoft Office chart.

I’ll engage in good faith: why not?

I’m commenting on this because I want to read/discuss it later. I can’t seem to save this post

Edit: Ok now that the Xmas hoopla is over and I have free time, I read this. What even was the point lol

Something something assumptions, asses, etc.

(See, I can simplify stuff too. Now there’s a chance that a certain amount of people are wondering if I’m having a stroke instead of linking it to a well-known English saying.

That’s why you’re not actually “simplifying” anything.)

You may make the distinction between saving a document and downloading a document, but most people don’t pay anywhere near that amount of attention, and don’t care about specifics.

Covering “Most people” but not all cases is where most software goes awry. We should probably try to avoid that for something as universal as saving a file.

I know someone that went to a charity performance years ago that was hosted there. She said her ass hurt afterwards. Maybe bring a seat cushion or something if anyone ever finds themselves going there for a performance.

They won’t, they’re addicted (I say this as a sporadic TT user). Look at how shit FB has gotten, yet people still hang around. Tiktok’s algo is 100x more addictive.

The only positive for TT for me personally was that the bot problem wasn’t as bad on it compared to other social media. I bet that will change pretty quickly.

MY BOY’S BACK WITH A NEW ASHLEY LETS GOOOOOO

Honestly, I’m really happy when I see a different artstyle from the “UE5 3rd person view and everyone’s covered in vaseline” 90% of games now have. I will be checking this out.

I’m so hype for this! Returnal was one of my favourite pandemic era games I played, and really helped me get back into gaming as a hobby. Very excited to see what Housemarque have cooked up.

Casey Hudson was the original project lead of Kotor 1 and the entire first Mass Effect trilogy. I think that’s why a lot of people are hopeful about the direction of this new game.

I’m curious too. Original Sin/OS2 are really tight turn based strategy games (with D:OS2 being the best game Larian has ever made IMO (sorry BG3 fans)), but Divinity II was an ARPG, and I would not mind seeing a Larian with actual resources trying their hand at it again.

I know Lara has never been flat. But I honestly wouldn’t put it past the “Feminine characters are sexist and wrong” modern gaming land scape to fuck that up

This has not been a trend in gaming for years, if ever. This was just Twitter outrage you fell for. Stellar Blade was literally topping the Steam charts a few months ago.

Thank you Remedy for not Epic-jailing this like with Alan Wake 2! That game is such a masterpiece that more people need to play 😭

I think Legacy of Atlantis is actually a remake of the first Tomb Raider, so I think Crystal Dynamics wanted to be like “Don’t worry guys, you’re also getting a new one” at the same time.

You may be right. Disney sent a cease and desist to Google right before this “partnership” with OpenAI was announced. Seems like Disney wants to integrate and control AI using their IP on their own terms.

Despite writing about dark topics - apocalyptic events, oppressed populations, the failures of heroes, etc. - he is missing the edge that you get from other authors who write similar stories.

You know what, I think you’re onto something here. I don’t need Scadrial/Cosmere to be the darkest and edgiest fantasy world ever, and a lot of fantasy readers read for escapism. But there is a certain friction you expect in the genre that just isn’t there for me in the first Mistborn trilogy, or the Stormlight books I read. Again, I can’t quantify it (and maybe I don’t have to), but the best example of my feeling is when I recall reading The Magician’s Nephew with my younger cousin around the same time that I started the Stormlight Archive, and man was I way more invested in Diggory and Polly’s reactions to the dystopias they were visiting than who/whatever was screwing with Kal again (free my boy from suffering, Sanderson).
