I haven't seen Pulp Fiction, so I don't get the joke.
It just made me chuckle how it seemed like he was shaming the guy for posting a video of a black guy using the word nigga. It's one thing to not like the word nigga. That's cool. But to feel the need to point out to the guy that he didn't watch it? Talk about fragile. Will Smith is about the only black rapper to never have used the word nigga, so if the guy was that triggered by the word, he should have known by now that in rap you're probably going to hear that word from time to time lol.
If you were implying that I'm racist, remember that this is the Funny Videos thread, not the Post Your Serious Thoughts thread. There's been one hundred times worse than that on here. This video below is hilarious, but that doesn't mean that I found the events of 9/11 to be funny. Lighten up. Sorry if I misunderstood your post.

The joke is just that it's pulp fiction in russian.
I posted the "I'm on crack" video.
And I don't really see how any of this could be misconstrued into me saying you are racist.
Edit: On second thought. If you haven't seen Pulp Fiction, I guess you wouldn't know this is a parody reïnactment. And with the Nazi's I guess you could think I'm calling you racist. Not the intent. Just saw you post a clip which contained a part of pulp fiction and had it's scene as the paused start-screen.
In russian I just said: "Not this one either, Comrade." Meaning his parents wouldn't want him to see my clip either.
Sorry, I'm an idiot.

Holy shit. Getting triggered to the point of tears over a liberal speaking out against racism.
That or it's language that is prohibited on television and, the woman at least, cares about keeping her job. Should it be allowed on television? Yeah, probably. But the list of words that aren't allowed to be said on the t.v. go back long before "liberals" were even part of the national dialog, much less the du jour boogieman. Same reason we never hear "fuck", "shit" or even "tits" on the news... George Carlin covered it years ago, and it goes back more to our puritan roots than anything else.
I would assume that is why the guy was surprised as well, but I would hardly call, "Could you not use that word on my show" being triggered.

That is beyond crazy! Did the headless zombie finally die? Did you continue with that character? I've only used that opening 12/15 times and never say anything like that. Lately I'm using an alternate start mod, so I bypass that opening.

Yes, after Alduin showed up I looked over to where the headless soldier ran off to. You can see him lying down dead by the soldiers shooting Alduin.
And yes, I continued the character: Sargon the Orc. He's a great big manly-man with a samurai ponytail and a glorious beard.
Alternate starts aren't an option on PS4, sadly. Sony doesn't let modders use scripts.

Oh, yeah, I'd read somewhere that mods don't work for the machines. That is too bad; mods do make the game more interesting. My favorite mod is one that adds a companion that has over 1200 lines--just a touch better than Lydia.

No, mods work just fine on the PS4, they just can't use scripts or custom 3d objects. I had several lighting and environmental mods running in that video, actually. The most obvious one is, "Skyrim is Windy." (Note the swaying tree branches.)
Skyrim for PS4 has this little library of mods that's accessible through the main menu. Despite the limitations, there's still a veritable smörgåsbord of good mods available.

Ah. Well as far as I know, Sony doesn't allow original voice acting either. The custom followers that are available on the PS4 use recycled dialogue from recruitable locals and mercenaries. I use Lydia 99.99999999999999999999999% percent of the time anyway, so I'm not too broken up about it. I have a mod that tags all followers "essential" anyway, so I don't accidentally kill them.

OMC! I saw on air live. I was stunned. I learned to juggle in college. A friend taught me. We got to where we could juggle off walls on the floor and even to each other. So I can guess what was involved in that music routine.
Unfortunately, juggling does not remain with you like riding a bicycle (a proposition I don't care to test after decades).
I tried to juggle again a few weeks ago and it was as if I had never done it. I could not only NOT do the bouncing of balls off the floor, I couldn't even juggle 3 balls in the air. It was humiliating! No actually, it was "humbling". "Humiliating" would have required others around to see me fail.
I've never juggled, but it looks fascinating and fun. I like to watch really good jugglers do their thing. It must take enormous hand/eye coordination!

It's amazing! But did you know it is all mostly fake?
The entire keyboard is just one touchboard. Yes the guy is hitting balls on the touchboard, but WHERE the balls hit doesn't matter. The touchboard is geared to play the next note in the song regardless of where it is hit.
Oh the down-juggler has to have the balls strike the touchboard in the rhythm on the tune, but he isn't hitting any keys that make a difference. Its all a sleight of hearing, so to speak.
And BTW, I used to down-juggle like that. Just never had an expensive touchpad... All I had were golf balls on a cement floor.
And now I can't even up-juggle (I just tried). Use it or lose it... It's not like riding a bicycle!
Yeah, more like riding a unicycle, I'd guess.

Marvel had Thor and Hercules fight a few times. Hercules had some Mallet to match Thor's Hammer. But Odin and Zues, now THAT would spectalular.
I recall when Loki and The Absorbing Man grabbed Odin's sceptre thinking it was the source of his power and he just "whisked" them both away when Thor failed to defeat either of them. I expect Zues would be about the same having suspended all the Olympian Gods over the Abyss after a mutiny.

... But there’s a surprising amount of nuance in Burger King’s joke. When explaining the Whopper fast lane system to a customer, a cashier says that “Burger King corporation believes that they can sell more and make more money selling chicken sandwiches and chicken fries, so now they’re slowing down the access to the Whopper.†That resembles the real conflict of interest at the heart of the net neutrality debate: ISPs are often trying to sell things that compete with each other, and they have good reasons to try to steer customers toward the content that will make them more money. The danger of a world without net neutrality is that ISPs that sell cable television or their own streaming TV services will carve up the internet to push customers toward the services that make them more money. ...[/] https://www.theverge.com/2018/1/24/16927890/burger-king-net-neutrality-ad

Your suggestion that they are or are not is utterly immaterial to this. You suggested that "IF" I had any knowledge about them, proves something about their sexual identity.

Here's a cute article from huffpost about all the atheists in congress:
Here Are All The Atheists In Congress (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/09/19/atheists-in-congress_n_3944108.html)
Propaganda article ... if you read it. The author clearly implies that to be Left, you have to be atheist. Isn't that circa 1920s thinking?
"only 54 percent of Americans would vote for a “well-qualified†atheist presidential candidate". That is amazingly high. Of course like any poll, they don't have an atheist presidential candidate to actually consider, so consider it a "never have to actually do this" pole and a flipped coin. The lack of atheists in Congress, is much more of a telling statistic. America is like India, only divided between R and D, not Hindu and Muslim.

If the universe were a simulation, would that make it un-natural? I don't see how that would be necessarily so.
And yes we have short, nasty and brutal lives. Just because you have Stockholm syndrome, doesn't mean the rest of us do.
Also it seems that you envision methodological naturalism so that you would deny psychology is a science, because minds are capable of thinking all kinds of irrational bullshit. If we limit ourselves to Newtonian cars rolling down inclined planes ... then we can pretend that reductionism works. It is the sub-personality type of "geek". It also seems to me that people thinking about, or making, Newtonian cars ruling down inclined planes ... is an application of psychology. I am holistic, not reductionist. I see a forest, not trees.
To put into simpler terms than a Wiki article ... let me give a historical review of "natural" for other folks ...
If one has a "nature", what that means for example ... "human nature" ... is that there are aspects of your behavior (if that is what defines you) that arise independent of your individual personality. In modern language, we would say that a human being has at least some aspect that is objective. Every person in that circumstance would demonstrate that property. And of course there is the un-natural bit, your individual personality. Notice that the origin of this isn't physics, but psychology (back then called Socratic philosophy). Eventually this was generalized to include biology (invented by Aristotle). The pagan contemporaries would have claimed that what happened (human or non-human) was simply arbitrary and random.
But Greeks had the idea of Cosmos vs Chaos. If reality is a Cosmos, then it has rules, it isn't completely arbitrary or completely random. This was simple to see, if you had a rock and dropped it. Every time you did that, that is what it did, it never did anything else. And the experiment was repeatable and could be seen by anyone, and repeated by anyone. The original explanation for why this was so, came from Aristotle, who summarized the physics of his day (throwing out atomic theory BTW because he didn't like Democritus) and gave simple qualitative explanations. A pagan would have said that the rock fell, because the gods made it so. Aristotle established a secular but biological and humanistic Cosmos, he solidified the notion that using gods to explain "nature" was unnecessary ... the fact that there were rules, and that reality obeyed these rules, was a sufficient explanation. But he wasn't a materialist (like Thales and the rest), he would't have taught that all of reality is even objective, just the interesting bits are (because that is what he was interested in, being a polymath). Socrates, to Plato, to Aristotle, had gotten away from materialism, which withered on the vine for centuries yet. Biology and anthropology (study of humans in particular) were their own sciences ... biology being the more scientific (dissection of a squid of the same species, produced the same organs).
Anthropology was pretty much tied to philosophy until modern times. The study of politics (something Aristotle also invented) was less objective, tied more closely to Greek chauvinism and Aristotle having compromised himself thru service to the Macedonian Kingdom. Philosophy then and now, continued to struggle with even defining what terms to use. Semantics. By metaphor, and given the secularism, Aristotle extended the notion of "natural" to non-human, non-biological things. He even invented part of logic (predicate logic) in order to try to get a grip on the "nature" of thinking. But the "nature" of a rock, as to seek its proper place, which was imagined (on the basis of experiments with rocks in air or rocks in water) to "seek its proper place" which happened to be the center of the Earth (already known to be spherical). All rocks would have travelled to the center of the Earth, if the other rocks weren't in the way. He didn't have a further explanation for why this was so, anymore than we have an explanation for why QM is the way it is. Of course it turned out, like any oversimplification we do, that he was only partly right. A rock dropped down a long shaft would travel all the way to the center of the Earth .. but it wouldn't stop there as long as it was allowed further linear travel.
So if one is a geek, but not a polymath like Aristotle, then one can not only believe in a Cosmos, and secular at that, but a reductionist materialist one. Which in simple terms is to say that the "nature" of biology and people too, is just rocks. Or in modern language, that everything is just atoms. But again, it is a willful choice to ignore the forest for the trees ... that this is all part of a historical and human process, and that we ignore our subjectivity at our peril. For example, if one were an ancient Athenian, and you believed that a democracy (of adult male full citizens) will always come to the best choice ... and the democracy decides to invade Syracuse ... then you are in for a nasty shock. Though of course, a committee of subject matter experts, using the latest knowledge and technique (scientific method) may come up with better answers than the PC of the Athenian assembly. That is exactly Socrates/Plato's criticism of Athenian politics. You need professional politicians, who do it full time, know what they are doing, and the hoi polloi (common people) need to get the hell out of their way and let them do their jobs. And of course, there is no wisdom in letting these ignoramuses vote on anything, because they aren't qualified, though they may be qualified to make poetry, make pottery, make sculpture etc.

Not exactly. It's not random. Unpredictable, yes, but not random. Each region of the brain has its own specializations, but no two brains are exactly alike. With hundreds of billions of neurons in each brain, there are bound to be countless differences from person to person, and the brain makes changes to cater to our experiences. If you learn a new skill, neurons branch off to form new connections. Those connections are essentially your new skill. When your brain rots away due to age or Alzheimer's disease, the neurons that die are your memories. There is no soul storing those memories in some permanent ethereal data bank. When neurons die, memories die with them. Hell, even in a healthy young brain, those memories aren't even stored accurately. Every time you remember something, your brain reconstructs that memory, creating new details that weren't there before and omitting some that were. The brain basically plays the game of Telephone with itself. There's nothing supernatural about any of that.

A very complicated answer, which I can't see how anyone can validate. A neural conspiracy theory of Jason Bourne depth. If we have to take into account, the billions of cells in a brain, and their infinite (analog) interactions with each other (obviously requiring chaos theory aka turbulence), how can you do more than hand-wave an answer?
Physics only deals with simple artificial problems, chosen by people ... we arrange a physical simplicity, that we can write simple equations to calculate simple results to compare measurements with. The people themselves are beyond any exact scientific description .. ghost in the machine aka an oracle (in terms of Turing machines).

What you are claiming is that physical things can not produce non-physical results, but they obviously can (if we accept that the origin is physical in the first place). I can use software to simulate any disallowed paradox ... not just a simple violation of gravity. Computers produce inconsistent results all the time. And people accept this, because garbage in, garbage out. Well there really isn't a ghost in the machine, there are in fact men/women who produce the machine and the software ... and they are indirectly present.

cgi kids movies just all look the same to me these days. The problem with it is they developed the detailing and smoothness so much, they all just look the same, at least when they were growing as an art form seemed they had different styles.
I can look at something like snow white, beauty and the beast, howls moving castle, and 101 dalmatians and the art style is unique enough to pop out. Modern cgi movies, not so much, because its less now about artists applying their art styles to paper, and now just about making it look good.

(...)
Physics only deals with simple artificial problems, chosen by people ... we arrange a physical simplicity, that we can write simple equations to calculate simple results to compare measurements with. The people themselves are beyond any exact scientific description .. ghost in the machine aka an oracle (in terms of Turing machines). Which is to say, reductionism ... arguing from atoms up to a person, is impossible to do in practice.
Just because something is unknown at present, doesn't mean it is always unknown - I don't think it is impossible to "argue" from atoms up to a person, just that's a monumental task.
As for reductionism, I don't see how using that process of thought invalidates it. It's merely taking things apart, viewing the component parts, and how they function, to try to "re-build" the thing to see how it functions as a whole.

Only insofar as the
internal logic is consistent would things fall upwards, otherwise you'll get a run-time error.
The constituent parts all the way from a human down to single atoms is reducible to a wide range of functions, this is reductionism, but the whole doesn't have the same function as the parts, this is well known. These
emergent properties of a whole from the parts isn't some nebulous thing arising ex nihilo, it's simple rules evolving into complex materia.

We are talking past each other. This was originally in reference to "actual simulations" not the notion that reality is a "simulation" was proposed by Drew_2017.
Well the dictionary is a complex web, more complicated than circular, but invalid for the same reasons why a circular argument is invalid. Jargon, especially math jargon, is an attempt to escape from this.

My Baby Boom generation was treated to the same fantasy, only 20th century style. It may be a stereotype, but 21st century youth is ... a one time thing more or less, same as any other youth in any other century.
Advertisers aren't out of touch, they are practicing brain washing you, just as the politicians are doing (political marketing). They will be successful getting you to believe that your collective conformity equals individual rebellion. Freud's nephew said so.

Wow! I saw exactly the same thing happen in front of me on a freeway exit in Quebec, except the wheel exited on a right ramp, rather than a left ramp. It came off a car, which slowed down and I passed. Oddly, at high speeds the car seemed to handle quite well on three wheels. I don't know what happened when it lost it's momentum. Sparks I suppose.

OMG, Tina Driving was GREAT. I knew, I KNEW Tina was going to hit that one car. It was HOW she was going to that was great.
I once was selling a previous car. The person who came by said he was "not and experienced driver". I thought :how bad could it be around the local neighborhood once"? In 10 seconds, I thought I was going to die! I literally had to grab the wheel to keep him from hitting a mailbox. I had to turn off the car, switch places and drive home.
He said "I think I need lessons". Yeah, ya think? I did not realize that anyone could be 30 years old and not understand the basics of driving. I understood it better when I was 12 pushing a lawn mower!
I donated the car to a charity that promised "full value" on tax returns because they actually gave the cars to families (not just sold them). And then 6 months later, I got a letter from a towing company 100 miles away asking for $1,000 for storage fees. Happily, I had the letter from the charity taking ownership and told them to bug off.
And all this because Tina (and I LOVE Bob's Burgers) couldn't avoid that one car. LOL!

Car-driving is actually pretty complicated. It's just that most people have mastered so much of it that they do a lot of stuff unconsciously. For someone who has been poorly trained or not trained, it can be pretty difficult to remember what to do and to be prepared to have to do it in an instant.
Even among people who know how to drive, some people think they have more of a handle on it than they really do and so we get craziness like people trying to text and drive. If you sat them down and showed them footage of their driving, they'd probably concede that they needed to pay more attention. But absent a wake up call, nothing's wrong in their minds and they keep on rolling the dice.
Yeah, it's like Russian roulette with cars, except that it isn't only themselves they'll kill.

I took driver's ed when I was fifteen. When I was done I got a full license at 15.5 years old. My brother was seventeen and had to do two years as a permit driver. I had to be with him when he drove. :snork: Driver's ed made me a better driver than being taught by the Y-donor, I saw his first attempt at teaching bro to drive, the front end of the car suffered.

We're living in the safest, freest time in human history, but the media on both sides has people convinced that everything is terrible. As a result, there is no middle ground, no compromise. There's just dehumanization of the "other," shouting matches between two sides, neither one knowing what they're talking about.

Correct. Under US Eminent Domain the government owns everything. They let you pretend you own something (including your bank account or your body) in order to not trigger you unnecessarily. In GB, which has no written constitution (not that having one helped the US anyway) ... the Queen owns everything and everyone. She doesn't point that out to you, again to not trigger you unnecessarily.

Funny, but not QUITE accurate. Snopes says the basic story is true. But the event occurred in Michigan and the correspondence has been "improved" over time.
In other words, a Michigan State query to an owner of a pond that was emptied suddenly when a beaver dam failed has been transformed into a falsely overly-officious bureaucratic demand and wonderfully sarcastic response from the alleged property owner.
Neither the demand letter nor the response is true.

Seriously, we have used our intelligence to go from prey to the meanest critter on the planet. If we really wanted there to be no sharks or crocodiles to threaten us, there wouldn't be any in a few decades. And it sure isn't because we have big teeth, sharp claws, or strong limbs.

But they meant something to the people who made them, and that suggests something about how they thought. And I don't mean sex-fanatics. Fertility meant life and death for the tribe then. Life was complicated then too, in its own way. No regular supply of babies and your tribe died...
The Venus figures may be part of the woman cult, not the man cult. In that case, not pornography. But what can men think, beyond their gonads. In the woman cult, it would have represented fertility and easy pregnancy, childbirth, milking.

No. Costello realized that the brand-spanking new joke he was about to drop â€"the one he claimed was never heard before and original to himâ€" was the old joke about Jonah seated on the stool selling those apples three for a nickel in the whale's stomach, an old joke told on the schoolyard.

George Carlin once came out on stage, said absolutely nothing for 5 minutes, had the audience rolling on the floor with laughter, then just left the stage, all the time saying nothing! He wasn't making funny faces or anything, just standing there.

Yep, a realistic animation?? ... but it would be X rated if Eve was going down on Adam, and was sharing his spunk back to him with a kiss of death ;-) A man taking on the female role being the worst perversion imaginable.
Back then, a man's spunk was considered even more magically life giving than a blood transfusion ... the woman's role in fertility was imagined to be passive ... when in fact her role is even greater than the male role (as any reader of Kinsey could tell you).
In the extra-bibilical sources, Eve was Adam's second mate, the first was Lilith, who refused to be a "bottom" for Adam. She escaped from Eden on her own, and became the wife of Samael (the Devil) instead. Girl's do prefer bad boys to douches. Eve was the other kind of girl, the welcome mat type. Satan = a title aka Vizier of G-d. And per Disney Aladdin ... is still the bad guy.
In Mesopotamian religion a "lilitu" is a she-demon, a succubus. Responsible for troubled child birth and sudden infant death syndrome. In Biblical terms, an inversion of normal motherhood, like the bad mother in Solomon's judgement. The mother who takes the child's life. This is why abortion is such a visceral issue for Christians.

No. Costello realized that the brand-spanking new joke he was about to drop â€"the one he claimed was never heard before and original to himâ€" was the old joke about Jonah seated on the stool selling those apples three for a nickel in the whale's stomach, an old joke told on the schoolyard.
OK, you got me there. Never heard about Jonah and the apples.. Would you explain the joke?

'Wanna play a game or pretend we're kiddies?'
QuoteThe Guangxi New Media Centre, unveiled to the public in the southern city of Nanning on September 24 to mark the Mid-Autumn Festival, quickly drew criticism online as netizens discussed the questionable resemblance of it to a penis. This video shows an aerial view of the colourful building flashing in bright red, blue and green against the night sky. According to local reports, the building was designed to reflect the historical rice terraces on the outskirts of the city, with the grooves in the architecture built to look like the different levels. Online users disagree, however, with one video in which an amused local animated fireworks sparking from the tip of the structure making its rounds on social media.

"After the new CCTV headquarters was built in China, online forums were abuzz with jokes about how it looked like a figure sitting on a toilet, and it was nicknamed “The Big Underpants Building.†But things took a racier turn when Rem Koolhaas had to fight rumors that he’d intentionally designed the building and its annex to look like a woman bent over, next to a penis. A critic named Xiao Mo wrote an essay called “The Structural Similarity of the CCTV Headquarters and Hindquarters,†and dug up some pornographic images from the book Content, in which women are posed explicitly next to pictures of Koolhass’s building. Koolhass claims the CCTV building “has no hidden meaning.â€I think Chinese architects are so sexually repressed from government laws it just comes out subconsciously in their designs.
I'm not really surprised that some buildings have already been built that look...uh...vulvular. That stadium in your link, that hasn't yet been built, sure does...arouse...wonder!

A duck, a badger and an ostrich walk into a bar. Inside they see Sherlock and Mr Watson talking to atheist. The duck says "We better leave, we're in the wrong joke".
But they didn't know Holmes was telling a joke about a duck, a badger, and an ostrich walking into a bar.
But the atheist got up and left because the joke wasn't about him.
So he met the duck, the badger, and the ostrich outside as they were about to go into a bar across the street. And he asked "do you know any good jokes? And the duck said, well I've got a great one about Holmes and Watson and their tent".
So the atheist said "OK, first round is on me"...
Don't applaud, throw coins... I still have to pay for that first round!

Dafuq? Yes, men are sexually assaulted. And? Women shouldn't complain about how they're treated in sexual assault cases because men suffer too? The hell kinda logic is that? Sounds like the same stupid logic behind people who say "all lives matter" in response to "black lives matter."

From Jan. '70 to March '72 my primary job was bow gunner on river boats. I swung a pair of Browning .50 cal. HMGs, guns that can kill at four miles. (And no, that's not an aimed shot, but they're lethal at that distance if somebody gets unlucky.) I was in combat roughly four hundred of those days, nearly all with fire fights of some degree or other. I did not keep score, if you lay 1500 rounds a minute into a tree line you don't actually see who gets hit most of the time.
I also did combat time later in my career but we won't go into that.

Nobody is undermining sexual assault on men. What men go through when they're victimized is an entirely different situation. They're dismissed. People think men always want sex, and so can't be sexually assaulted. That is a real concern and should be discussed, but not as a way to shut down discussion about sexual assault on women.
It is ridiculous that anyone here supports, supports sexual assault on anyone. Everything else is virtue signaling and special pleading. Aka gaining political brownie points.

and yet, thats pretty much what the joke there is, female officers shutting down or dismissing a man who was sexually assaulted. I happen to not find that funny anymore then someone making a sketch there the roles were be reversed. Such a sketch would create outrage anyway and get pulled.

I'm not interpreting the skit in the same way. The man in the video wasn't sexually assaulted, he was robbed at knifepoint. This joke is about blaming the victim when an assault is sexual and how ridiculous it sounds to blame victims of other types of crimes, such as theft (by dressing "provocatively wealthy") or online harassment (what font did he use?). The joke would have still worked had the man been a woman who had been robbed, although not as pointedly because women are more frequently sexually assaulted. Another element of the joke is how the detective is androgynous and bland, lest s/he be accused of appearing in any way provocative. I see this skit as skewering attitudes toward sexual assault in general, for example, if a man is sexually assaulted by another man his sexual orientation is called into question: "Are you sure you're not gay? Were you acting in a feminine manner?"

It's far more complicated than that. When there is no real, strong, united opposition votes get divided as you'd guess. But then we don't have just two strong parties to vote for. So it cahnges. There is a barrier here. A party has to pass 10% with votes to get in the parliament.
People vote with strategy over here. For example, millions of Turks vote/voted for the Kurdish party, actually how the party entered the parliament to begin with. Against him and his wing party (far right), so they wouldn't get the most seats. Last elections it was 5,5 million I guess. First time it was 9 or something like that? Voter turnout is around 87-90 %. But then millions of Kurds vote for Erdogan. That's freaking Middle East for ya.
This is something like having an all minority party -an all mexican party?- in the US; in senate and around 20 millions of Americans voting for it, against Trump and Republicans. It makes around 20 million right? I am a math moron.
"A party has to pass 10% with votes to get in the parliament. " Gotta prevent balkanization thru excessive sectarianism. Anatolia back to the Bronze Age, has been the Balkans before there was a Balkans.
We may have an all-Mexican party some day ... if the R & D uni-party continues to be elitist, and ignoring the pull of populism (Trump). Our rulers don't want to be popular, they want to be monarchial. They look to Old Europe for inspiration.

I have no idea what do you mean by balkanization or the rest. But it's about preventing anything that may come in. Fake democracy. Idon't care if a party get 3 or 5 % vote, if people will vote for it, should be in. It's about forcing people to vote for big parties. Fuck that.

Turkey needs to be monolithic, like Japan - channeling the original Young Turks. Even in the Bronze Age, Anatolia was multiethnic, multi-lingual. The collapse of the Hittites were probably the first collapse of a multicultural experiment. Luwians and other folks there didn't care for Hittite hegemony. Assyria and Egypt didn't care to help out their enemy either.

QuoteTerry Moore 6 months ago
This is unspeakable and very eye opening. I gave my son a magic kit when he was young and pray that God forgives me. I had no idea. This is very upsetting because the devil is bold and letting you know he is real. If you don't believe in our Heavenly Father Jesus then I don't know what to say. You have been shown the devil, why can't you believe in our Heavenly Father. Hell is real and you better know that Heaven is real to. You better wake up and decide where you want to spent eternity. I declare that Hell was not built for me.

I'm sure he feeds his pets. It's just that he didn't train them to behave. When a pet begs for food, it's typically because their owner shares their food with them. Or in my dad's case, they hover around him because he eats standing up and has a habit of accidentally dropping food. I don't know what this cat's deal is, though. My guess is it used to live outside, where stealing food was necessary for survival. My cats wouldn't try anything like that, since they know we'd get mad at them.
its actually kind of concerning. When I had a dog, I walked him every day, and it did wonders for my health and his. By nature, having a pet dog should have this effect on most people since dogs need a way to spend energy (or else they take it out on furniture/cloths/shoes), so just having not just a dog but multiple cats around, and him looking like that, I'm kinda worried about the animals.

Funny. The ones screaming "I'm the victim" without justification seem to me to come from the Right. Every fucking Christmas, there are evangelicals arguing that there's a "war on Christmas." Every time Christians are told they can't force their beliefs on everyone else, they're being "oppressed." But sure, moron. Black people should just stop whining about being murdered by cops in cold blood, and those cops getting off without so much as a slap on the wrist. Gay people should just stop whining that their families abandon them, Christians try to deny them equal rights, that some try to "fix" them with gay conversion therapy, and they're threatened with Hellfire just for being who they are. Transgendered people should stop whining when people continue to call them by the wrong gender, just to spite them. Arabs should stop whining that they're treated like terrorists, despite being peaceful people. The poor should stop whining that they're being paid a wage they couldn't possibly live on, while the rich continue to get richer. The Left are such whiners! Who cares if your human rights are being violated! Just suck it up! Clearly, the right to be an asshole is more important than treating people like human beings!

Well, if intelligence follows the standard bell curve, it would be true. The bell could be skewed, however. I haven't seen a recent study on that, but I think I remember hearing that most people have an IQ above 100, though.
IQ is a forced bell-curve based on how it works, but it's global so it's possible for people within a country to not fall on the curve, or even be above average. Or below.
Actually intelligence on the other hand... it's tricky.

Well, if intelligence follows the standard bell curve, it would be true. The bell could be skewed, however. I haven't seen a recent study on that, but I think I remember hearing that most people have an IQ above 100, though.
Technically, a Poisson curve ... since it starts at zero and goes up from there. A Gaussian is centered at zero, and trails negative and positive. When you aren't too far from the mean (average) which should be at the peak of the curve, it doesn't matter too much. It only matters at the far ends. Back in the day, with people using tables to do functions, it was easier working with the Gaussian than the Poisson. Today with calculators, not so much. And yes, 100 isn't the true average. It actually varies below and above that.

The curve is created by the people, the people don't serve the curve. Most people have an IQ around 100. I can't understand why some think only one person can have a point on the curve, a curve that is wholly artificial.

So do politicians. Liquidate them. Establish true purity, by satisfying every paranoid instinct.
At Don Adams' 75th birthday celebration/roast, James Caan told a story about playing Golf with Don, in which he got really pissed off and slammed him to the ground and stuck a golf ball in his mouth.
Don says "remind me never to go bowling with you."

Yeah, I have read that 20% of African-Americans are part White. That girl is really pretty. In fact part-Black prostitutes were very popular among African-American gentlemen who habituated those kinds of places. I have a genuine bordello advertising token from LA pre 1950, that advertised that their girls were 1/8 Black aka The Octoroon (the term then used for African-Americans who are only 1/8 Black). It is futile to white-wash American history, regardless of your politics.

Actually, I went to school first in Oregon, then Alabama (shithole description is correct), moved back to Oregon in the 9th grade, then CA for 10th; graduated in CA and spent one year in a Jr. college. Yeah, I would have preferred Berkeley to anywhere in conservative southern CA. No wonder you display such evident brain rot!

Well I was a little young for the rock/orgy/drug/commie scene ;-) But observing it from S California elementary school 62-70 ... I was unimpressed by my older Boomer contemporaries. My older god-sister got caught up in a feminist commune. I am still underwhelmed. In Colorado 70-78 (HS thru college) in my next phase ... (Colorado was a bit more conservative than S California), as long as you stayed out of Boulder ;-)) The hippie dippie scene still exists "up canyon" from Boulder, but it is a second generation of stoners (visited last time, 2 years ago). Ironically, I am profiled in airports these days as a stoner, but I choose not to rebel like a teenager.
Back in the day, Monterey and on up the coast thru the redwoods was lovely. The northern chain of the Sierra Nevada was nice too (Chico for example). A scenic beauty, but I wouldn't have gone there for the people (except for Chinatown). The state population was only 17 million in 1962., half what it is today.

It is odd of me to remember just how conservative I was right out of HS. I rooted against Cassias Clay; I was for the war in Vietnam; hated Communism; rooted for the Yankees; knew the USA was Land of the Brave, Home of the Free; liked corporations; thought capitalism was the very best of the very best; thought politicians were honorable; and that racism and racial hatred was a thing of the past. I don't know that person now--we agree only on the Yankees and the dislike communism even if it has never actually been practiced anywhere but in Utopian pockets mainly in this country.

True about bullies. I learned that the hard way. But I never considered my country to be a bully--quite the opposite. Then college happened. Started out to be an accountant, but ended up a historian. Then graduated into the Army (was drafted, really) and became a Special Agent. Learned from those two sources (college and Army), that as a country we are indeed a bully--and becoming more and more one. But that is our tradition.

I liked the 60's. Don't think I have any form of PTSD. If I had had gone to Nam, I would have died--either actual death or a slow death of PTSD; lucked out and did not have to go. Seems to me you chose to be bitter about not only the 60's, but about your entire life. Your choice.

That is the real thing. Most real problems can't be solved in closed form. Some of those hard problems can be solved numerally. But for some of those the algorithm doesn't converge much.
Once upon a time, I think I did give an example of various meanings of "converge". More and more, hard problems actually show chaos, and that is why they are not closed and not well behaved numerally. Because the variance of the solution depends very sensitively on the initial conditions (aka butterfly causing a thunderstorm).

QuoteWhy do people see the Virgin Mary on cheese sandwiches or hear demonic lyrics in "Stairway to Heaven"? Using video, images and music, professional skeptic Michael Shermer explores these and other phenomena, including UFOs and alien sightings. He offers cognitive context: In the absence of sound science, incomplete information can combine with the power of suggestion (helping us hear those Satanic lyrics in Led Zeppelin). In fact, he says, humans tend to convince ourselves to believe: We overvalue the "hits" that support our beliefs, and discount the more numerous "misses."

Philip Fernbach is a cognitive scientist and professor in the Leeds School of Business at the University of Colorado, Boulder.

At an outdoor market many years ago, there was a stand-up comedian doing impressions, like Rich Little, and I was kind of drunk, so I kept yelling at him to "Do Rich Little!"

It's clever, but if you've ever played a keyboard of any type, it's obvious that the ones they're using are set up as triggers for a pre-recorded MIDI track. Points for being able to hit the board more or less at the right moments, but they're not actually playing any tune. They only have to hit the keyboard anywhere; they're just triggering the next note in the queue, and even I can bounce a ball to a rhythm. I know, I've done it. Not as well as they have, but I still have to say it looks a lot trickier than it actually is.

But to constantly deny evidence of the shape of the earth when there is everything showing you your wrong, you can even get up videos showing the earths rotation, yet they still deny that all to live in that bubble is bizarre.

I just saw the original Willkins and Wontkins proto-muppets; there's a touring Henson exhibition that's currently visiting our local science museum.
I did
not expect the emotional hit from seeing used-in-production Muppets in "person", as it were. But then, they're rooted deep in my childhood... and Henson and his team gave them more life and personality and character than some actual human beings I know. Seeing a "real" Kermit was especially tricky (https://tinyurl.com/y5rjfl3v) (bring kleenex for this link).

Keith Comstock was little-known as a journeyman pitcher but remains unforgettable for one thing: that photo of him taking a ball to the groin. Thirty years later, Comstock reflects on how he became a minor-league trading-card legend.

The Billy Ripken 'fuck face' card is probably the most famous of the 'odd' baseball cards.
How much is his card worth on the open market?
Quote from: Unbeliever on August 24, 2019, 01:41:44 PM
How much is his card worth on the open market?
It's on a Fleer card from '89. And there were a ton of those sets made. The entire set (660 cards) goes for about 5-15 bucks for a factory set. Usually error cards are not worth much--an uncorrected error card is the same as a regular card. Believe it or not, there are several variations and the most expensive variation sells for 15/20 bucks at most. Any of his regular cards have a price tag of about a dime--essentially worthless.
For those who don't know, the card is a picture of Billy Ripken (Cal's brother) from the waist up with him holding a bat on his shoulder; on the bottom of the bat handle one can see the works 'fuck face' written on it. Then Fleer went crazy trying to fix the error.
Quote
Ripken’s card also had several versions printed, all of which, besides the original, blocking out the cuss word. Of course, with Fleer acting quickly to correct their error, the original ‘fuck face’ card was increasingly hard to find and became a lottery ticket among collectors. According to some old-school hobbyists, the original card was selling for upwards of $1,000 at the time.
Not sure what "at the time" refers to. Maybe cards aren't the collector's items they once were. I had a few as a kid. My friends had more. They came with bubble gum. I don't think there was another way to accumulate them besides buying bubble gum, none that I had heard of. Their commercial gimmick was that they were "trading cards", not necessarily collector's cards. Some kids had six of one, and none of others, but I can't remember anyone ever trading a card for another one. I remember some of my friends taking pride in holding certain cards. I was too young and not interested in baseball, so I didn't know who any of the players were. A Hank Aaron was of no more value to me than a Sam Jones.

At the time--refers to 1989. I was selling cards at that time, and the fuck face card (or rather, some of the corrected versions) were selling for around a grand. I knew it was stupid then--and it still is. I was a small seller of cards and would usually get 5/6 wax boxes (36 packs) to sell. I'd open some and sell the hot singles--and Fleer was one of the brands I carried. I sold most of my fuck face cards (only about 12/15 as I remember it) for 5/6 bucks each--and I thought that was too high then, for error cards (with rare exception) usually did not become all that valuable.

The Comstock card dates from '88. It was produced by a company called ProSet, which specialized in minor league cards. He was a pitcher for the San Diego minor league team when that picture was taken. And if one has one and you paid more than a buck for it, you were swindled.

Just think, Cavebear, you could have ground up over a half million. I think the most expensive card sold for over 4/5 million. To demonstrate how card collecting has changed; that Mantle rookie right out of a pack would command from 20 grand to over 100 grand. That is called its 'raw' state. To make the huge bucks, one needs to have it graded. That means you send it off to a grading company who then examines it with a microscope and grades it. Top grade is a 10. If one had a 10 graded Mantle rookie, it would get hundreds of thousands of dollars. Being called 'mint' is no big deal any more.

I know I started buying them for myself when there were still a couple 12¢ and 15¢ titles. I was an early reader of classic literature. :D
I guess I learned to read with comic books, since that's the first thing I remember reading. Hell, I thought a man really could fly! I told God once that if he's let me be able to fly I'd believe in him. Well, I never could fly, so now I don't believe in God.

I don't really remember any of those early comics very well... but I do remember the stack of late-50s/early-60s MAD Magazines in the guest room at Grandma and Grandpa's that I was going through certainly by '66 or '67, when I was three or four.

I was lucky about that. I had a steamer trunk full of them. One day when I was off at college Mom told me to take them away or she would toss them. Like I had space in the dorm for a steamer trunk. Moms are so good at timing things to prevent choices...
So I collected the trunk and brought it to a comic dealer. I showed him FF#1 beat up. He showed me a dozen in perfect condition.
I got only 5 cents per comic, but I had a lot of them. Fed me for a month.
I wish I still had them though.

I'd hug an Alligator if I knew it wouldn't try to bite me.
As a boy, I liked lizards too. Had a few as pets. But my baby alligator was taxidermy. Here is the guy with the big monitor lizard ...

That's the thing, though. Reptile brains are different from mammalian brains. They have no capacity for emotional connection. At best, they may see you as a source of food they don't have to work for. These things will tear the arm off of one of their own for no reason. I wouldn't trust these giant lizards. Heck, even wild mammals might attack you if you look at them the wrong way.

Correct. A woman model got her face bit off, by a lion, during an advertising shoot. Guess the cat didn't like Chanel #5. Also reptiles want you for an effortless body heat. Or is that cats? ;-)

There is a couple with an alligator in the basement in Minnesota, who is so large, he can't get out of the basement. Fortunately they can keep throwing Elvis imitators down there to keep him fed!

Secular Talk's take-away is that evangelical Christianity is on the decline and interest is dying out, even among the charalatans themselves.
That's true to some degree, but perversely, it's never had the sort of influence it has had in the past two decades.
And I've noticed more of this stuff firsthand (maybe I just noticed it less in the past?), and I've gotta say, it's a hell of a culture shock to go from fairly reliably secular surroundings to one of extremely right-wing Christianity. You really get the impression that these people are a sermon away from eating grass or burning witches or whatever it is you want them to do. Anything goes. Quite the departure from the predictable rules of wider society.
Hydra009 I assume unlike some others here, you never practiced Christianity, or didn't practice the Southern version of that? In that case, it would be a strange experience for you. Doesn't invalidate the experience of other people, even if it isn't your cup of tea. For others, who have been in that culture, and escaped it, they have flashbacks ;-(
Cult behavior is odd, but it happens in secular formats too.
I don't approve of the whole smartphone culture, including when a pastor does it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6uSqUrL1TQ
Forward to 14:00, and the ghost hunters are in a place called skinwalker ranch. I read about this place before, about people claiming this canyon is haunted or attracts all manner of things from wendigos to skinwalkers to aliens to ghosts to dire wolves and so on.
In order for them to 'see the spirits', they need to ingest a 'special herb' to see them.

Suddenly, every one of these ghost hunter programs starts to make sense.
edit: The drug they were given was called Datura.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/pharmacology-toxicology-and-pharmaceutical-science/datura
Shamanism. Safe under direction of competent shamen they say. But don't take Datura at home, kids! A mild stimulant compared to magic mushrooms or LSD nat subs. Abused, it can injure or kill (hence the need for an experienced spirit guide). Maybe comparable to peyote?
http://www.angelfire.com/electronic/awakening101/carlos_datura.html
https://www.verywellmind.com/what-are-psychedelics-22075
So not comparable to peyote, different symptoms.

Addicted folks of course should be told ... no. Same as a drunk in a pub, being told to sod off by the publican. Social pressure should be enough, rather than War on Drugs escalation for profitable political election.

"Hey, everyone, the future of this channel is uncertain due to the FTC cracking down on YouTube with COPPA. Unfortunately, even though these videos are obviously not for children, "animated characters and cartoons" are included in the language as "directed at children" which could mean the end of my channel depending on how strict the FTC is going to be about it. They're casting a VERY wide net, including: video games, "stories", vivid colors, toys, cereal, etc. So, a lot of people may be going bye bye. This starts Jan 1st 2020. This video could be the last DarkMatter2525 animation, but I think I'd like to try to squeeze in one more for December. Nothing is set in stone. I might be okay after all, and I may be able to keep animating, but if I'm not okay, and you still want to keep in touch with me, I'll at least still have my DarkAntics channel, and my Twitter and Patreon accounts, and I will announce anything further on those accounts if my DarkMatter2525 channel is deleted (over 10 years of work down the goddamn drain)."

And no it doesn't matter if YouTube head office is in america itself, the service is a world wide protect, who's collective across the build made YouTube as big as it has.
Though it does beg the question, if YouTube now will demonetize you for putting up adult content like sex, swearing and violence, AND for making child appropriate content, then where is the middle man, the apparent safe line these people will let you upload for?

It's simple. If you wanna make money on YouTube, be a big television company that doesn't have to follow the same rules as everyone else. Otherwise, beg for Patreon support and hope your channel isn't taken down because of BS copyright claims or some automated system dishing out strikes for no reason.
Or just move to a different platform, lots of other companies/websites are more than willing to provide a more loosely governed alternative to YouTube's stringent service from any scraps that fall off YouTube's proverbial table of alienated users. The most popular alternative to YouTube, currently, is Vimeo, AFAIK, but there are lot others, like Bitchute & Bit.tube. The difference between Vimeo and services like Bitchute, is that they won't follow COPPA regulations I reckon.

Many people here have argued that there is no such thing as sexual misconduct ... cough, cough. People here using the trope of morality ... bollocks.
And I consider all Americans in treason against the British Empire. Heretics too against the Anglican Church. The Clintons are too small an issue, if you look at the wider sweep of history.

QI is possibly my favorite TV program.
I just found it recently, and it's been growing in my estimation ever since!
sandi toksvig is okay, but I'll forever miss stephen fry. His charm and how he played off alan davies was highlight of the week for me sometimes.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rZ3uq8JZ6o
I've been a fan of Sandi for ages, from The News Quiz and her guest spots on I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue; if Stephen was going to leave QI, I don't think they could have chosen a better successor -- at the very least, I really can't think of anyone else they could've gone to. And Bob knows dealing with Susan Calman on TNQ prepared her for dealing with Alan on QI.
I've always taken the replacement of an actor or chair or host or whatever phlegmatically, and prefer to appreciate them for what they bring, as long as it's not a total cock-up (like Stephen Fry or Rob Brydon hosting I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, which each did briefly before they settled on Jack Dee). It's worked well enough for Doctor Who and MST3K. The Grateful Dead chewed through keyboardists like Spinal Tap through drummers (no, really -- the only one still alive was only with them from like 1968 to 1969). If I'd gotten hung up on "Doctor Who can only be Tom Baker!" or "Joel is the only host of MST3K!" or "The Dead without Keith sucks!" I would have missed a lot of really good stuff.
So I don't mind that Sandi has taken over the chair, much as I have always had a completely ridiculous crush on Stephen. It's neither better nor worse, only different, and still one of the best things on TV.
I'm just glad to know that such programming exists. TV for smart people! What a concept!

My vote for worst reality TV show goes to
The Swan in which several women chosen for being "ugly ducklings" were given cosmetic and dental surgeries and then competed against one another in a beauty pageant to determine who would be crowned the most attractive-- "The Swan". Take women with low self-image and body insecurities, reinforce that their worth is dependent on conventional standards of female beauty, have them go through months of painful surgeries and workouts, then give the losers the message that even after all the pain and hard work they still are not pretty enough. Black Mirror had nothing on this show.
Reality TV is cheap and nasty, and nothing else.
The only reality show I ever liked was 'The Big Break' on The Golf Channel -- because the participants had to get through on the basis of their actual ability on a golf course. All the scheming and backstabbing in the world isn't going to help you when your clubs can't back up your mouth.

"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" (1890) is a short story by the American writer and Civil War veteran Ambrose Bierce.

Garlic is like money. Never enough. And Uncle Roger is right about risotto. Risotto is italian for bad rice. Imo, they both messed up eating rice with forks. Fork is for pasta, meat, big chunks of stuff; not small stuff like rice or peas.

We go with basmati...often with turmeric, saffron, garlic, peas...etc. Not a big fan of mushy rice but once in a while a well done risotto makes a nice bed.
While in the Army in Hawaii, I was introduced to sticky rice. Found I liked it. But not with fried spam, which was everywhere! Honolulu's corner lunch places were full of quick lunches, rice, of course, was in all of them--featured fried spam, baloney and hotdogs. I went with egg roll, and such, on sticky rice.
Gotta have sticky rice, how else are you supposed to eat it with chopsticks, one grain at a time?
I make an acceptable fried rice, nothing to challenge the local Chinese restaurants.

In Lovecraft country, there was a shootout and one guy had a hunting rifle with scope and must've shot a couple dozen times without reloading. Another guy had a snubnosed revolver (pretty sure it was one of those 6-round types) and fired it at least a dozen times without reloading. I thought of this video while watching it.
Six shooters often only have 5 chambers. Semi-auto pistols might have more than 6. It only takes one if you hit your target, in the right place.
Yeah, I heard people in the old west used to carry 5 shots in a 6-shooter.
They kept one empty because the guns didn't have a safety option, so they had to use an empty chamber.

Or 4 bullets in a 5-shooter. The problem is, a loaded gun is fundamentally dangerous. Lots of people shoot themselves by not following protocol.

I attended a firearms class back in the day. We were let in and assigned a table. "You have a .45 and a holster. Put the holster on and put the piece in it. They are unloaded, so you don't have to check." Anybody who didn't check was dismissed immediately.

Gotta admire their fearlessness. But come on, after you tear through a ton of mooks like hot butter, they really ought to head for the hills.
If not flee or surrender outright, they should at least regroup around a more badass mook or fortification. In some games, they spread out around difficult terrain and take pot shots at you, goading you into brutal ambushes, which is far more dangerous than coming to you and engaging directly.

Yeah...It looks like a very unreasonable demand but actually it is not. The window for kidnapped children, esp. toddlers to survive is so short while the odds of finding them alive after that is so low that is the curicial window. Few hours just after it happened. Dropping whatever you do -if it is possible and let's be honest, most of the time it is- and go around to look for the kid is pretty curcial for his/her life. And that's what you want people to do when it is your kid.
Just the common understanding known around that people in a certain area would respond this way after an amber alert makes that area very high risk for any kind of child kidnapper. Be it a lone homicidal pedo or someone works for child traficking. People who commit these crimes are not stupid. After all, basicly all they do is to take advantage of a situation.
I'm curious if that young man will think the same thing about that 10 years later.
Most Amber alerts are dads stealing back their kids from their moms? That dude shot in the back 7 times in Kenosha. The fear of the moms is real of course, I knew one who fled the state, because she and her ex (and his family) differed on if the kids should be raised Catholic. In another case, the mom was the usual bitch, but her daddy was rich and powerful and treated the children's father as a shit pile (which he kind of was). This is why police fear to enter marital/family fights.
Most kidnapped girls are victimized by male relatives, the ideal age being 14 ;-( Just ask that hair sniffer Biden ;-) Street children of course are just shit out of luck.

It's not realistic to expect everyone to stop what they're doing to run into the street and check all the license plates. And the way Amber Alerts work are so annoying, I just had to turn them off. No matter if you have your phone's volume down or on silent, it will blare out at full volume anyway. Trying to sleep? Too bad! Wake up, run outside with a flashlight, and check all your neighbor's license plates. At a concert? Well, I hope you weren't recording, because every phone in the room is going off now. Playing a game on your phone with your headphones in? You don't need those eardrums, do you? Nobody bothers with them, because the chances of finding the car with the limited information given is beyond tiny. Now, if the alerts weren't so goddamn annoying, I'd keep them on, but they've blasted my eardrums one too many times.

I don't know if you are aware, but the more people want to go around with nothing touching them, annoying them, or making them uncomfortable...etc the worse things get. This is a very good example of that. It's the same thing everywhere.
Yes, of course there are situations you can't go. But most of the time people have time to look around in their neighbourhoods. It is not everyone or every time. People just don't, because they don't care. If you don't care about it, you don't care about it. It's your choice. But 'alerts are so annoying' doesn't sound like an excuse. How can that alert be designed in a not annoying way? It's purpose to get you alarmed and agitated about something bad. It's supposed to annoy you. It's supposed to be something you can't ignore.
Expecting people dropping a game because of an Amber Alert is not a big deal at all. Dropping something serious you can postpone should not be a big deal. Those kids in that video have no idea what they are mocking with because they are fucking kids themselves.
Amber Alerts one of the few things I admire about the US. Because it is the right idea. Civilisation is that simple and it is that fragile. It is the things like that that make the big difference between 'developed' and 'underdeveloped' countries. OR should I say 'used to', considering the generation z will take over at some point. It's not high technology or how many nukes, chocies of food or drinks or clothes or entertainment mediums you have...
You know what, it feels like most of the America is bent on killing every good idea it had once before because they can't be bothered now. Or maybe I'm watching too much John Oliver.
If the alerts were sent as text messages instead, or just didn't ignore your sound settings completely, they would be less annoying, and people would probably pay attention to them rather than hit OK to close it and immediately forget about it. But at present, I only have two options. Either accept the risk of having my eardrums blown out while I have my earbuds in, or have alerts turned off.

There is more agoraphobia and other phobias because of chemical pollution, substance abuse, broken families and collapsing culture. Competent mental health assistance (other than throwing the drug of the week at it) is almost unobtainable. Once we become fully feral, I don't think the Amber Alerts will matter much, other than alerting the rest of the wolf pack.

I don't mind them. They're infrequent enough that they aren't really disruptive, and I certainly understand the need for them (given the office I work in).
But that's the same alert tone I mentally associate with nuclear war preparation. Alas for being a child of the 60s...

I get it. I wasn't trying to annoy anyone. But probably that's how it started and then evolved this way.
Anyway, maybe people should make a complaint about this if people really believe the alert style is pushing the help and support away. It would also make people think about it, take attention.

You mean like Biden did in the halls of Congress? What Bill Clinton did in the White House and on Fantasy Island? What Hunter did to his niece and to his brother's wife and to an Obama daughter and to the Russian prostitutes? You people are mad at Trump because he isn't ashamed. That is a crazy position, but your moral self righteousness is noted ... as a failing.

I considered doing that too. I figured if there was ever a year to vote third party, it was when we were given two choices as bad as Trump and Hillary. But then I researched them and discovered...they weren't any better. Voting third party is a waste of time, because they have no chance of winning, and their values are niche to the point of obsession. I mean, really. Who did you vote for? Libertarians? Those guys are nuts. They think it's a good idea to let people drive around without a license. Just let anybody drive! That's safe! Let's do away with all licenses!

He said that canned tuna has a little pull ring which seems to be true in the UK. But in the US, canned tuna very rarely has a pull ring. And increasingly comes in a little pouch, pouches with horrible price/weight ratios so it's basically just a sneaky price increase.
Also, I like Canada but milk absolutely does not belong in a bag. EVER. The slightest damage will spill milk everywhere, plus it's easy to fumble. Liquids in general should never go in a bag unless they're medical IVs. That's the one exception, and there's a good practical reason for that.
No packaging if you suck milk from a cow directly ;-)
Researchers at Purdue discovered a link between tuna and the lining in cat food cans with pull tabs, the reaction between the two produced a carcinogen. That may be why you don't see many pull tabs on tuna cans in the US.

That's probably the milk sold to make yogurt. We have that in one brand. It's not abundant and sells out qucikly.
But we buy raw milk from machines to make yogurt. They give you a 3 -or 5 liters- plastic bottle, you keep and use it every time you buy.
It is illegal to sell raw milk in the US. Bovine Mafia!

$1 or more for like 2-3 ounces of the stuff. That same dollar will get you 3-4 ounces of canned tuna (drained weight). And while the canned variety is slightly harder to open, the pouches are slightly harder to dispense with a greater likelihood of waste, so it's basically a wash on convenience.

I enjoyed The Rubin Report back when clueless Dave Rubin let pretty much anyone come on and shoot their mouth off. He didn't contradict his guests, because he didn't know anything, and it was entertaining watching people get comfortable and hang themselves with their own words. Then he began fancying himself the leader of "a movement" and started preaching what he called "free speech" while unironically avoiding anyone who would contradict him. He repeatedly said, "I want to bring on progressives but none of them will come on my show" which was a ridiculous lie. He dug his own libertarian/COVID-denying/Trump-supporting celebrity rabbit hole and fell down it.

Admittedly, that's a very optimistic figure. A more conservative estimation would be a dozen or less.
And even though 36 makes it sound like the galaxy is teeming with civilizations, it's a big galaxy (space is unbelievably big) so there would be something like 17,000 light-years between each one. A large enough distance that communication let alone travel is really, really, really hard.
But there are upwards of 2 trillion galaxies in the universe, although the Milky Way is a fairly large and metal-rich one. Let's say that there's on average 2 intelligent civilizations per galaxy. That's 4 trillion in the observable universe.

I don't think it's an "assumption," they looked closely at the question and put forward their best conclusion. Of course they know they could be wrong - they are scientists, after all.

Possibly. There's a brief period when an intelligent species has modernized to the point of radically altering its homeworld but is not yet truly spacefaring. That's probably the most dangerous phase of development. Who knows if any make it past that phase, but I am optimistic that some do.

I suspect that galaxies that inhabit large clusters (which is most of them) frequently have the orbits of planetary systems disrupted by close encounters with stars from colliding galaxies. I know there is very little chance of stellar collisions when galaxies collide, but near misses seem likely to me, so galaxies in clusters where collisions of galaxies are more frequent than our Milky Way may not have many planets with orbits that remain stable over the billions of years that seem to be required to evolve complex intelligent life.
The Milky Way has had few if any galactic collisions in the last 5 billion years, so Earth's orbit has remained stable long enough for us to show up.

They make an interesting distinction -- they're not talking about raw SETI numbers, but specifically CETI --
Communicating ETIs. In principle that would not include all ETIs in the galaxy, because some might not be communicative either because they haven't advanced far enough, or they are sufficiently advanced to have lossless communications and choose not to broadcast.
The other thing that strikes me is the 'error bar' â€" their calculation isn't just 36, its 36 (-32/+175). Even granting that there are just way too many unknowns to have much confidence in the numbers, that's still saying it could be anywhere from one-ninth to five times their estimate.
While I agree that it is more likely than not that we share this galaxy with at least a few other SETIs (communicative or not), this research really only points out how speculative the whole endeavor is.

It is also thought that the Sun bounces in and out of the galactic plane which would also create disruption.

It's one of the most speculative topics ever, but it's an incredibly interesting topic, so that's why there's so much ink spilled over it, even with the great deal of uncertainty.
All we really know for sure is:
1) We're at least 1 for 1 when it comes to intelligent life in our galaxy
2) there at least trillions of other galaxies out there

Companies should never offer games on platforms that can't run it decently.
Otherwise, a bunch of people buy it, say it runs like crap (it does, but it's not the devs' fault that the hardware isn't up to snuff), then the game gets review bombed by people who are understandably upset and they clamor for refunds.
Also, any game's minimum specs are meaningless and horribly misleading. Imagine trying to fly a plane with the bare minimum of parts and fuel. You could land successfully if you do everything correctly - maybe - but don't be surprised when it crashes.

I disbelieve in visiting aliens because (among other reasons) they always just look too much like us. I'm pretty sure aliens won't look anything like us. I suppose I could be wrong, but I'm not.
Yeah...lol. But would you believe it if they looked very different? Why wold any civilisation visit earth in the first place?
Yeah, no, even if they looked very different I still would not believe it.

I have watched Humanity for the second time yesterday. I love this man. Even though I have heard similar jokes, sometimes even the same topics from various other comedians, from him it started to sounds like narration of reality at this point, more than comedy. I guess because of the spankings he gave to the Hollywood.

And sometimes, your teacher will have a mental break (probably not related to the poverty) and you'll get a backup teacher for a while. Or the rest of the year, depending on how that missing person search goes. Backup teachers are like regular teachers except they don't know how to you know, teach that class.
And depending on when and where you get educated, you may or may not experience any combination of the following:
1) bullies
2) nuclear bomb drills
3) active shooters
4) a deadly pandemic
5) that weird kid who repeatedly calls you a narc because you made eye contact with him once
Gonna be a real fun time.
First two on the list. I would have been the closest to an "active shooter" when the conditions were right for our gunnery practice at an unused quarry sounds to carry to our high school. The cops showed up in force, then apologized to the owner of the guns and left. (He was a one-legged Marine who is now buried in Arlington.) Kids at school were jealous of me until I pointed out that I had shoveled horse shit all summer to get trigger time.

Sports is a sort of ephemeral shared fiction and doesn't really matter because nothing really matters. So get out there and win or don't, cause this field is going to be a parking lot in 5 years.
If you think about it, playing sports is basically LARPing, but instead of imaginary names, you have imaginary numbers. And instead of pretending to stab each other with fake swords, you're trying to get a ball to go into a hole of some specific shape, like a rectangle or a basket. Both involve wearing funny looking costumes, acting out a set of agreed upon rules to manipulate numbers to your advantage in competitions against opposing players, and both involve make believing that victory for your team somehow benefits your team's affiliated location. Huzzah! Our team put more balls in holes than the other team did! Glory to Foxboro, even though most of them aren't even from here and were drafted from all around the country! This victory is totally not meaningless!

It gets written down in the sports annals that there was a successful campaign and the party members' contributions to that victory are tracked and they get some experience, maybe go up in rank... oh my god, it actually is an rpg!

Well, this went a different direction than I was expecting. I was expecting him to talk about the corruption surrounding cereal. The way they're marketed to gets with cartoon animals, the way they claim to be "part of a balanced breakfast," despite even the "healthier" alternatives being mostly sugar. But nope. John just wants cereal companies to up their game and get creative. lol
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abuQk-6M5R4
The sports angle is because of Wheaties. The alternative is claiming that your cereal is so good that kids ought to be willing to commit second-degree burglary and go to jail over it. Looking at you, cookie crisps.
And I agree, Goths do deserve their own breakfast cereal.

I see plenty of that shit where I live, in the Greater Houston area of Texas. People have no sense. They don't respond to the speed limit changing, they don't use blinkers when changing lanes, they wait until the very last second to get out of an exit lane, and oh my god, the bridges. Going downhill from a bridge, it's like there's no speed limit at all. It's just a free-for-all. Go as fast as you like! Only rule: Don't apply the breaks!

Almost any multiplication is simple AF by just breaking it down first. 13 x 13 = (3 x 13) + (10 x 13) = 39 + 130 = 169.
But let's be real, most of us just plug this stuff into calculators and write down the result. Ironically enough, one of the few instances where on-the-fly math is important is RTS games.
I try to do it first just to exercise, but then I check it with the calculator, lol.

Yeah, well...smaller groups of people calling the shots is basically that but ultra-concentrated, so you kinda have to bite the bullet either way. At least with a super wide net, the worst impulses are mostly cancelled out.
Well, forget the current pandemic.(Because it is too dark with that.) There is a fast growing group out there that thinks we think the world is round because we are retarded. They will be the majority at some point and worse. Because half of the world population does not have internet access. This is approximately, three and a half billion people and most of these people do not have access to basic secular education. Now, the people who believe the world is flat and pushing this idea to spread around the world HAS ACCESS to basic education. Any kind of information. They live in a free speech, uncensored society. Now, can you imagine what will happen when the other half get their hands on the internet in general... THE social media?

That's something I've struggled with myself. It's best to meet face-to-face. Game stores are your best bet, since they often host D&D games. You could also google D&D meetups in your area. For online play, roll20 is the main site. If scheduling is a big problem, there's always play-by-post forums.

Fun fact about turn signals: if you put them on at the exact moment you're changing lanes, you're fine. You gave everyone a head's up for about .1 seconds, plenty of time for them to react. Then just leave that bad boy on for the next 10 miles and just kind of dare people to risk passing you on your blinking side. Are you about to turn or not? Just think of it as a fun little riddle for other people to figure out...the hard way. *suddenly veers into the passing car* *veers away at the last second* Sike! Gotcha!
And on interstates, a fun game is to position your car right next to another car, but just a little behind them and follow them for about an hour while not paying any attention to the road whatsoever. We call these people lane buddies, because of how easily they can see each other. It almost never results in an accident.
And whether you're going 20mph or 50mph or 80mph, always follow people closely, you want to have a maximum of about one car's length distance between you and the car in front of you at all times. While you're both texting or playing games or turning around and talking to your kids. Totally safe.

A couple of days ago my best friend called me to discuss investing in NFTs and the conversation was about the level described in this video. I think NFTs were invented so that people could have more things that could be bought and sold without having to actually produce anything. I believe NFTs are ridiculous, costly to the environment, and an opportunity to make stupid money.

I found this video informative, but it is dense. NFT's are a scam because they are built on cryptocurrency, which is also a scam. I hope they all lose their money and wind up giving blowjobs for pennies under and overpass. But that won't happen. The video makes some parallels to the 2007 housing bubble and that means a few individuals will get obscenely wealthy and the rest of us will have to pay for the damage they did to the economy.
Quote...they are built on cryptocurrency, which is also a scam.
I would like to think so, but banks like J. P. Morgan and businessmen like Mark Cuban have started to get involved in crypto as well... so it looks like it might be here to stay. Time will tell.
While i'm not huge on it in general, it does have some legitimate uses as a gray market/black market currency, so I respect that. Anything that can be used to subvert government attention and taxation has some merit in my opinion.
I dunno. When the best use for it is to buy stuff illegally, that doesn't sell me on the concept.

Ideally the government would decriminalize all items that don't harm (consenting) adults and then I would think crypto would lose probably 65% of its use. Until that happens though it's pretty much the only option for online purchasing of illicit goods.
If it wasn't for the environmental impact and the impact on electronic prices, I honestly would have no problem with it; people should be able to trade whatever they want for whatever they want. If a bunch of people want to group up and decide a line of code is worth $50, awesome... that's not any different than the currency we use today, it's all imaginary.
But if that $50 of code means we have to destroy the planet, no thanks.

Why is it a good thing if people have another option to commit tax evasion?
Quote from: Blackleaf on January 26, 2022, 07:42:51 PM
Why is it a good thing if people have another option to commit tax evasion?
Because taxation is theft by its very definition; "Theft is defined as the physical removal of an object that is capable of being stolen without the consent of the owner and with the intention of depriving the owner of it permanently.".
The only reason they collect it is because they have the biggest guns around and no one is going to mess with them. Sure, they give us little pieces to keep us pacified, but it's only to watch out for themselves. At the end of the day, they don't want people knowing that their lives would probably be better off without them and they sure as hell don't want to lose that cash cow or their life.
It is what it is, it's not going to change anytime soon. Unless humanity is wiped out save for the bare minimum of required survivors and culture has to start anew, that's just who we are. But if you can find a way to get around that, without technically breaking any laws in doing so, then more fucking power to you.

My friend is on Twitter, hears all the hype, and he was asking me if he should get into NFTs or crypto because I'm into technology. He knows I'm not interested in money-making ventures. My advice was these things are essentially gambling-- only spend as much as you are prepared to lose.

The short of where he's going with all that is that flat earthers do not believe the earth is flat because that what they think the shape of the Earth is. They believe it for ulterior reasons. It proves god exists or Jews are evil or whatever it is they actually want to believe, which tends to move around or vary enough from person to person that it's impossible to blanket statement. It's kind of like dealing with a hostage situation by pointing out their socks don't match. It's not about the socks, man.

The first few seasons of Family Guy were legitimately funny, imho. Back when the animation was kinda rough, Peter was a couple of shades redder, Stewie wanted to kill his mom, Bonnie was still pregnant, and Quagmire was just a pervert whose views on millenials were unknown and irrelevant.
Not all long-running shows fall into decline. For example, there's The Walking...no wait, bad example. There's Game of ...hmmm, this is going to be harder than I thought. The Simp...no, that's the opposite of what I'm trying to prove. Futurama's coming back and it's just as ...no it isn't. Archer, kinda...well, pre-coma o' clock. Nevermind, just pout. American Dad, nah who am I kidding, that show barely treaded water. King of the...nevermind that was always hot garbage lit by charcoal briquettes, no less. Bob's *makes the same face as Tina trying to drive*

Okay, based on my calculations, it's mathematically impossible for a live action tv show to be good beyond 10 seasons and an animated show to be good beyond 5 seasons unless your name is Justin Roiland, potentially.

Funny thing is there's a popular theory about the first generation of Pokemon games that says Gary's (or your rival's) Raticate dies after battling you. It's in his party until you encounter him in Lavender Town, when you find him in the Pokemon graveyard. Gary asks you what you're doing there, but he doesn't explain what he's doing there.
Of course, that's bologna. A more likely explanation is that he just traded out Raticate for another Pokemon. He's not going to lose to you over and over without experimenting with new monsters.
Earth is still important, kinda. It presumably generates an abnormally high concentration of supes, so it's important for recruitment. And it has cultural significance. End of list.
In the R&M universe(s), Earth is a primitive backwater which can kinda sorta imitate some of Rick's powers but only if they sink an ungodly amount of resources into it (the US Pres and his knockoff portals, shrinking tech, etc).
In terms of technological ability and just about every other metric, Earth lags far behind. Aliens even have better romantic relationships (alien couple's therapy, love finderrz, etc) The only thing we have going for us is the best ice cream in the multiverse, and even that is taken away after the inclusion of flies in the recipe.

This is one of those "funny 'cause it's true" videos. Another tactic pharmaceutical companies use is "patient assistance programs." For example, I take Biktarvy for HIV and it cost $3,783 for a 30 day supply. I have prescription drug coverage through my employer and because this is considered a "specialty medication" (meaning expensive) my copay is $100 and every month the pharmacist contacts me to make sure I am taking it. Because the manufacturer, Gilead, has a patient assistance program, I pay zero because they pay my $100 copay. This sounds very generous but in reality they are spending $100 so I don't switch to a less expensive or competitor's medication and they lose $3,683 a month (technically less because these prices are negotiated). People like myself who need to take an expensive medication daily for the rest of their lives and have insurance are cash cows.

Yeah, your humor is messed up! Which is why I like it so much! :) And I do miss Gary Larson so very much (The Far Side) !! So I will say--good for the 90s movies!!
I was just explaining to my brother why we both find stuff like this so funny.
A big chunk of humor is stuff that we would expect to be incredibly harmful but turns out to not truly be harmful. (a specific kind of subverted expectations)
There's a reason why slapstick revolves around people falling on their butts or taking a pie to the face or otherwise being roughed up or embarrassed. None of that is truly harmful.
Take the "reassuring" plane safety video that stokes people's worst fears. But it's just imaginary in this case, so it's funny rather than horrifying.
Deadpool is a treasure trove of physical comedy because whenever he gets hurt, he heals, so it's not true harm.
Or here's one straight off the dome: being surrounded by a pack of wolves and tackled by one seemingly on the attack only to reveal that it was just an affectionate hug. Subverted harm!
'Funny' doesn't have anything to do with being harmless. It's just about distance. Doesn't matter what the joke is about; an identity, disaster, natural trait, a situation... if it is not related to the consumer, it's funny for them. Something that feels harmful for the most, doesn't feel that way for some people. Also, conditioning works.
For example, rape or sexual abuse jokes are funny for most males because they are not used to perceive it from their gender's perception, while it's not the case. On the other hand, it is funny for the ones who can perceive it from the both ways because, well, it's just a joke, nothing real. It's just too distant to be real.
What it sounds like in my house when I'm printing something but running low on toner and my friend brings her potbellied pig and we're watching Big Bang Theory and a flock of Canada geese are nearby:
My favorites are the ones where you get in a 6-12 person team and everyone has their own individual map loading bars, so you get to see the slowest person's loading bar load extra slowly, and I imagine that they're on a farm in southern Wyoming and get their internet through a literal string tied to a windmill with an antenna on top and a feral cat keeps pawing at the string as newspapers are delivered from an old rusted pickup truck finally informing the sleepy hamlet that Dewey did not in fact win the election.
Other times, I imagine that some apocalypse happened in Detroit (hard to tell, though) but not before someone booted up the game and joined the squad, so some broken, ruined flatscreen TV is slowly loading the map with my frustrated messages scrolling down the screen. We slowly pan out and there is a scene of absolute carnage that makes Fallout look like Blue's Clues as people run for their lives in panic.
I have something of an imagination and it almost never creeps out my psychiatrist.

Thank gawrd that one of the video essayist youtubers has tackled the Amico so I don't have to. It is fitting that the Amico is kind of a side tangent in the video mostly about Tommy Tallarico, former CEO of Intellivision Entertainment and a really whacky cat.
It seems like HBomberguy has used the bit of "Thought this would be a short video" a number of times. It doesn't come across as genuine anymore.
This kind of shit is why I am apprehensive about The Elder Scrolls VI. It could be the next best thing. Or it could be released in an unplayable state, used as a vehicle for overpriced digital content, with no refunds offered for anyone who has installed the game. Def won't be pre-ordering, especially not for a super expensive deluxe edition made with the cheapest of materials.
For those who haven't watched the video, the state of Fallout 76 in its release isn't the only controversy in the video. It's just the tip of the iceberg in a list of embarrassing blunders. Makes for a hilarious video, though.
We won't know until we know.
Bethesda has put out a lot of games with high ambitions that didn't quite completely gel.
Oblivion was more physics-based and "procedural" than Morrowind, but what was promised and what was delivered were two different things, and one title is liked far more than than the other. Oblivion was reworked in Skyrim and came out much better this time, but still felt a little...lacking in some ways. (There are reasons why Skyrim has so many mods) In both cases, core RPG mechanics were simplified, which was disappointing. I expect more of the same later on.
As for Fallout, Fallout 3 was by no means a bad game. But man oh man, New Vegas blew out out of the water in many ways. Fallout 4 was nice and certainly looked cool, but the actual gameplay was...not particularly deep or memorable. And Fallout 76 definitely showed a lot of corner-cutting and bad design choices from the start (no NPCs in an RPG was... a choice)
Bethesda should really look inward to what made people want to play their games in the first place (player customization, roleplaying, open world with interesting things and people) and work on that first and foremost, imho.
Not necessarily "funny", but it put a massive smile on my face because it was the most absolutely batshit gain of like 5-6 positions in one turn (on the last turn of the race at that).
Saw an interview with him, and he pretty much was just like... "Yeah, it worked on NASCAR games on my playstation when I was 8, so I said screw it and went for it."

For those not in the loop, certain tabletop games require dice to play. Initially, people buy just the bare minimum amount of dice to play the game properly, then a spare, then maybe another set because the previous ones weren't "lucky" enough, then a shinier set...and before you know it, you're sitting on a pile of dice. Such people are often referred to as "dice goblins", and there's an ongoing debate about how many dice are okay and how much is excessive.

Yes.
Rock, my favorite genre, basically died sometime in 2005 with a small core still active. It's like the Byzantine Empire in the 13th century - rump state. Or maybe a better comparison is ancient Greece versus modern Greece. Either way, much less powerful.
Pop and especially rap took over in the 2000s, and from what I've heard (especially secondhand to my great misfortune), neither has been very healthy lately. There's a viral clip of Snoop Dogg talking about "mumble rap" more or less taking over the genre. That's not to say there's not occasional really influencial and memorable singers, it's just that on the whole, there seems to be a decline. I guess that once you've hit the top, there's nowhere left to go.
Metal and electronica and other niche genres are still kicking (you cannot kill the metal), neither particularly gaining nor losing popularity as far as I can tell.
Country music has recently made big gains and won much more mainstream popularity imho, which is upsetting to me as I consider this genre to be by far the most inbred (literally and figuratively). It wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say that the genre consists mainly of patriotic/rustic keywords triggering dopamine in its audience much like the Winter Soldier trigger words trigger obedience for him.
And I dunno if it's just a function of my advanced age (older millenial) but almost every time I check out the top 40, I feel like I'm listening to someone bang on a toilet with a hot mic. Like Hank Hill's reaction to listening to Bobbby's music. And even when I check out just the top 10 "rock" tracks, it's 99% crap (so one decent song every ten times of checking it out, not great). And man oh man, do they stretch the definition of rock there. I honestly half expect to see Taylor Swift up there.
If it wasn't for the YouTube algorithm and you guys and deep digging on my part, I doubt I'd continue to find good songs at all.

The first one is basically WWII but only in Europe and between Stalin and Western Europe (on paper, that seems lopsided, but apparently the Russians have better tanks, rudimentary nukes, and Tesla guns, so Russia starts with a huge military advantage slowly undone by spies/saboteurs and ultimately Einstein technology) Fun game but an old one like you point out. Fortunately, its remaster breathes a lot of new life back into it.
My joke was that the game series doesn't run afoul of anyone's political sensibilities and then immediately show the mission where the invading Russians destroy the Twin Towers, the worst act of terrorism on American soil.

Junk Fu.
It's weird how people want movies to make sense.
Let's be real: either wizards are so detached and isolationist that regular people will almost never see them in their entire life or they're running the show. Only two options.
Third option: magic is widespread but kinda weak so it only gives practitioners a slight edge, but even then you just know someone's going to juice it up and cause a catastrophe.

Obviously, it's for a laugh and I haven't watched the video, just wanted to write about it.
Magic is an inherent gift of the race of the people in HP universe. They're born as witches or wizards, they don't become witches and wizards. On the other hand, in general fantasy, these characters are most often humans and they become; work/study hard, and even sacrifice big to become what they are. Actually, the best examples of the genre are about the stories of process of becoming a witch or a wizard rather than the mature wizards we coincide in the stories.
Ordinary people in fantasy worlds -doesn't matter from what race- generally don't share the powers or the knowledge that witches or wizards have, and well they don't like them. Why would they? It's simple. (It's even worse than superheroes.) They're too powerful. They can defy nature's or humans' rules easily, become immortal, and more, because of their abilities, they're often not even subjected to common rules. An evil wizard can do unimaginable things to a weaker being, worse than dead. So people just tolerate when there is a need, but the rest of the time they're scared of them. Well, obviously ordinary people don't need much from wizards, but the previous situation is still valid.
In HP universe, the societies of witches and wizards are extremely tough and it has very harsh rules, they're like laws. (It's usually the first and most sensible point of criticism these series face.) This has multiple reasons, but besides the obvious, the most important one is that these people do not have a cultural aptitude to develop any kind of technology as muggles do and able to do everything themselves. So they're in general pretty powerful. If you don't need to invent vehicles to travel, weaponry to kill, and machinery to get things done...etc. you don't get to evolve in that way. Not can't but won't. On the other hand a child in that society -and certainly among muggles- is obviously quite dangerous, and themself in extreme danger considering just the natural circumstances they get born into. As a result, their personality as individuals, character as a whole society is pretty different and odd. Their relationship with oneself, and with each other is very different than what muggles have.
I don't like the lady who wrote the series. (I don't know, nor care about the latest squabble in media. I've just never warmed up to her, and I've read this when she was writing it.) But her premise(s) is pretty good and the world she created is consistent in itself and then some. So when I see something like that it feels like the "Why didn't they get to the Mount Doom by Eagles to throw the ring?" stuff. LOL
I mean the best answer to the specific question here actually is just 'because she wrote it that way'. LOL.
Me trying to teach literally anyone a card game or board game:
Star Realms: Basic deckbuilder. You start out with a deck containing kinda crummy cards, but your deck does get better over time and I'll show you how. You draw 5 cards, play ALL of them (you always play ALL of them) - some cards give you currency, some give you health, some deal damage to your opponent. Basically, you play all your cards, do whatever the cards say, and with whatever currency you have left you can buy any of the face-up cards on the table, then put everything you played/bought in the discard, which eventually gets shuffled back in your deck.
Simple. Takes like 2 minutes to explain. For the life of me, I can't get a third person to play who knows to play ALL the cards, calculate the effects (it's literally 3rd grade math), and put everything in the discard afterwards.
Board game: Terraforming Mars. Alright, this one's kinda complicated. But at its most basic, essentially all we're doing is taking turns playing cards. First you pay the card's cost and then you just do whatever the card says. A lot of cards either give you more resources or generate more of a resource every turn. The second option is best long-term, but the first is nice for a short-term boost.
So...let's see how you're doing. Catatonic while caressing the silver pieces. And now you're asking if it's your turn. It's been your turn for the last 40 minutes if you know, you wanna play any cards or anything.
Sometimes, you just gotta pool your resources together in a classless society. But don't put labels on it, or it'll weird some people out.

Fun sound and feeling, plus we don't often get a chance to slap things that won't either hurt us or be hurt by us in the interaction. Also, definitely a monkey-brain instinct.

I have decided that I really hate the tickytock editing style. The cuts are so fast and so short that it's disorientating. I am reminded of old home movies went my parents were kids at the amusement park and they went on one of those rides that just goes around and grandpa filmed them. Except, he only filmed went they were on his side and he'd stop when they went around the curve and then started again when they came back around. It was nauseating.
Tickytock shouldn't be popular. It should be nauseating. Because it is.
Yeah, well, sometimes you just need a ~1 min gag for some forum to get a laugh at. Something simple (but not too simple) and relatable but not overdone. Tight window! TikTok is horrible, but the concept of super short comedy clips is solid. Tons of demand.
Basically, there are 4 types of videos on the internet:
1) yarn stuff that's literally 4 seconds long and basically just gifs with sound
2) TikTok/Shorts stuff roughly 1min long. Yeah, it cuts a lot out for brevity's sake but
3) 5-20 min short(ish) videos where something is briefly explained. Don't forget to like and subscribe!
4) 1-3 hour videos - often fantastic but really takes a HUGE time commitment!

Geography is hard Unfortunately, due to several factors, American geography skills are subpar. This is likely due to a poor emphasis on geography in primary school, not great schooling in general, a lack of emphasis on geography in news blurbs as an adult, and ironically because of America's geography - we have only two land neighbors which we are quite familiar with, but that familiarity gets pretty hazy pretty quickly and it takes real effort to build up a familiarity with say, eastern european geography which a lot of Americans simply don't have the time and/or inclination to learn and maintain.
Also, I wouldn't be able to correctly multiply 7 times 8 correctly in front of a camera.
And finally, the unfamiliar orientation of the map (normally, the US is on the far left side, and Russia is on the far right) and lack of color (making it difficult to differentiate countries) is likely contributing to confusion.

I read a bunch of Hardy Boys books when I was a kid, but the only line I remember is some fat kid saying "Here I stand and here I'll die, but I'll not give up this hunk of pie." 🤠

Little known fact: it was more of a "ritualistic sacrifice to their God, who was actually a pre-Finnish spy who had infiltrated the deepest core of their society and demanded that they plunge themselves into the sea to be ritually purified".
Also, the 1 Christian argument that has ever convinced me.

I'm going to tell my kids that this is what the console wars were like:
NES sensei = benevolent teacher, rekindled the Way of the Wise Masters (Odyssey, Atari, Colecovision), took in many apprentices
SNES = sensei's son, not as brilliant but very skilled and community-driven
SEGA = upstart, quarrelsome but spurred innovation in himself and others
Playstation = literally Satan
XBOX = an unfeeling robot programmed to imitate the Way

PlayStation is a monster unintentionally created by both Nintendo and SEGA. If my memory serves, Sony approached Nintendo with their CD-based technology and Nintendo said, "No thanks. We'll stick to cartridge-based technology." That's how Nintendo lost Final Fantasy, because the games they wanted to make weren't possible on cartridge. Unless I'm mistaken, SEGA also snubbed Sony. I think Sony went to SEGA, SEGA said no, and then they turned around and made the SEGA CD attachment for the Genesis. They made it personal.
So the gang trekked through a zombie-filled hellscape to the (relative) safety of a facility with a lot of armed guards. Like A LOT a lot. The facility is run by an organization named WICKED, led by friggin' Littlefinger, and every now and then, they choose some kids who get taken away and the gang never sees them again. Nothing suspicious here.

For sure, she's absolutely right - it's just funny because women spent ages demanding the right to work the same shitty jobs men have (apparently having to rely on someone else who might love you or hate you for literally everything wasn't great or something) and now are complaining the jobs are shit... like, I cant put it any other way than he did...

It's true though. I know how Taylor Swift looks like and what she does. I know that in social media, people talk about how her songs and her relationships are related. And masses of people listen to her. But I don't know her voice, I don't know one song of hers. Highly likely, I have heard her songs many times. I must have heard one, right? But I don't know of her music. Same thing goes for Beyoncé and that Adele woman. I bet most of you are in the same situation.
But until 20 years ago, we knew the pop singers voices and songs even we didn't actually, specifically listen that kind of music. And there was far less media. I mean, maybe too high examples for the genre, but before, death metal fans knew Madonna's or Micheal Jackson's songs. Forget that, I have pop songs in my memory to the word coming from the time before I was born with no information of the artist. Some from my childhood that only stayed in lists a few weeks. Songs, people around a table can sing aloud together without the any information about the band.
I find that interesting. I don't think these people will last that long when the stop making something. Do they have 'old songs' in their own range, for example?
People say there are different reasons for all this from the current social media to the new culture, that before there was a few source before everyone's eyes...etc. but I think the main reason is simple. Songs are just bad. They all sound like each other. I mean by bad, they do not make you hear them, remain in your head. It could be a silly song, but you'd love it no matter of what, and want to sing along. Nope. Zilch, nada.

This is very true for me. With a few exceptions, I could not ID the top 40 song of the last 20 years. This music lacks depth, key changes, alternate timings, great instrumentals, and any sort of intellectual lyrics. I even think the so-called "dancing" (ass shaking) is very visually boring.

Damn, me too. I was able to read it once, then got paywalled when checking it as a reaction to your post. I found a work-around, though. If you're fast, you can simply tell the browser to stop loading the page before it's fully loaded. Not the best solution, but a quick-and-dirty solution.
Basically, the TL;DR: is that newer songs are shorter and built around short "hooks" (and therefore, more repetitive)
Funny. I often like songs that the collective has decided to hate. They say it's "fluff" music. But I listen to the music that's popular today, and I'm like, "Do you people just hate melodies?" That's what it seems like. Their music is full of fake drums, fake instruments in general. And not like in a Depeche Mode kind of way. It's not doing stuff that real instruments can't. It's just lifeless. And the singers slur their words so much I can't understand a damn word they're singing. What do they like about modern music? I struggle to even find a hook most of the time.

That's the thing though. You remember the old shit because even that's the failure of something. Even when it is shit, it can have a place, you can react to it, I dunno, you'd remember it just because it reflects some part of the pop culture, a point of view...you name it. These don't, probably can't.
The interesting part is that I'm curious about how the young generations will relate to it in the future when they're old. I mean what kind of a nostalgia through they will relate. Does it work the same with other generations? Is nostalgia a universally personal cup of feeling independent from its object?
Omg, the 90s were amazing. Everyone had SNES and Sega Genesis and huge CD collections and wore flannel and bright colors...well, not me but some people did. Oh, and the "no-smoking" sections at restaurants, where you're basically eating next to a smoker, but it's okay because they're doing their thing like 5 feet away and smoke doesn't travel more than a couple feet.
If you don't want to be riding your horse across the vast steppes, living in a camp of thousands of fellow nomads, living off the land and by the sword, fighting to die before 30 so that you do not face the shame of growing old and dying a cowards death, while raining arrows and slaming into Roman lines with your BIG BUFF HORSE and your LONG HARD WOODEN POKEY STICK as you raid frontier settlements in Dacia and Macedonia, and (someday) even raiding Rome herself along side a bunch of other steppe horsey-bois fleeing the Huns... don't talk to me about wrong generations.

I doubt if grocery stores would give a damn one way or another, but we have a windowsill that usually has some sort of lineup of growing roots from the organic market. Green onions and garlic sprouts grow so fast we can hardly keep up with them. Every pineapple ends up out in the garden.
The big "stuffy" supermarket chain around here is called "Publix" and I don't think we have gone in there one time in the last ten years except to grab some sub sandwiches from their deli. There is a family-run, local market about 1/3 of the size, frequented mostly by Latinos that has such better quality of produce at 2/3 of the price. For dry goods we go to a warehouse market, "BJ's, LOL" every few months. Bobby says BJ's is false advertising, bait-and-switch store.

I actually like marine isopods. :/
Just don't do an image search on them because there's an image that's just a collage of them and I'm pretty sure it's a memetic kill agent (an image so jarring for human perception that it can kill the unwary) You see one in isolation and you think "that's a really weird bug!" and you see like 12 more with slightly different bodyplans and it's like looking into the ark of the covenant.
Those marine isopods remind me of trilobites.
So yeah, why do we have HFCS drinks instead of cane sugar? I mean, the Caribbean is right there. And Brazil is the top exporter, iirc. Just saying, if Mexico can do it, we can do it too.
Also, now I'm curious about what German Fanta is like.
I've never cared for Coke. Maybe I'd like Mexican Coke better. 🤔

I have this very detailed trilobite fossil in our curio; picked up from an online fossil hawker like 20 years ago. We also have a 3-inch Spinosaurus tooth and a 5.5-inch megalodon tooth I got from a diver from the Savannah River. I like to fondle them and ponder on the circumstances when they were alive.

A perennial debate with my brother. His latest salvo:
While I respect and appreciate operating systems which allow for superuser behavior (users who command vast amounts of control over their system, usually in tandem with higher technical knowledge than the average person, because such nearly unrestricted power can have adverse effects when implemented incorrectly) I maintain that the bulk of humanity is either incapable or uninterested in such a setup and merely wants to watch YouTube, fire off emails, etc and a "good enough" OS is perfectly fine for that, especially if it is relatively simplistic and intuitive.
However, "good enough" systems are often poorly managed - victims of bloatware, nagware, adware, and - a relatively new phenomenon - very short product cycles requiring "upgrading" to the new OS which is no longer much of an actual upgrade but simply an excuse to force a new round of license-buying. It seems inevitable that "good enough" software degrades into "not good enough" software due to well-meaning but detrimental actions (bloat) or to greedy and unscrupulous management decisions. For this I have no solution that doesn't involve threats similar to the one allegedly uttered by the Costco co-founder to the Costco CEO regarding the price of Costco's hot dog combo.

Power Word Kill seems like total BS. The kind of spell that shouldn't exist.
"How much HP do you have?"
"85."
"You're dead."
"What do you mean? Don't I get to roll a save or something?"
"Nope. You have less than 100 HP, so you're dead."
To be fair, it's a 9th level spell. By that time, you should definitely have that much hp.
Also, 9th level spells are supposed to be devastating. Meteor storm is a 9th level that does way more than 100 hp in aoe damage.

It just seems like if you're in a situation where that spell could be used against a player, it's going to come off as a bit unfair. I see the GM's roll as finding a balance between providing challenge and avoiding having your monsters just steamroll through the party. Insta-kill magic leans on the latter half, and I only see it being used fairly as a punishment for being really, really stupid. Like challenging the clear Big Bad way too early.

Fair enough. It's interesting to me that there are lots of spells and tactics that would be fair for the PCs to use on the NPCs, but not vice versa. Death magic, focus-firing the squishiest member first, stunning, etc. Because these things are fun when the PCs do it to NPCs but not vice versa and the goal of the game is of course for the players to have fun.
And also because the PCs normally face vast amounts of NPCs over the course of their character's career but not vice versa, so NPCs inherently get the advantage because they're incentivized to go all out, using all their potions and hitting the red button, while PCs generally don't get nearly as much benefit from such desperate tactics because they have to fight multiple battles while the NPCs usually only fight once. I call this inherent imbalance between NPCs and PCs "the grenade dilemma" (I'm still work-shopping it).
Imagine two armies armed solely with one grenade per person - PCs take control of one army while the NPCs control the other. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be. Well, not quite. The NPCs are incentivized to use all their grenades with reckless abandon while the PCs have to be careful because this battle is only one in a long series of battles. All else being equal, the PCs are at a disadvantage.
Death saving throws are another example of imbalance between PCs and NPCs. When an enemy hits zero hit points, they're dead. Super simple. But if a PC dies, then they start rolling death saving throws, giving them a chance to recover. It's not totally realistic, but if your odds were 50/50 each encounter, you wouldn't get far in a campaign.
Well, i've seen matches in which the dm had the pc enemies roll death saving throws.
Of course, if your hero then walks up and puts another arrow or two into the bastard, they are finished regardless.
And as for commoner-npc's, if they get hit with like, i dunno, 18 damage, they are out of death saving throw range, aren't they?

I always assume that commoners are dead as a doornail unless they're on the far edge of a blast or the villain is intentionally trying to merely wound them.

"Störtebeker is said to have asked the mayor of Hamburg to release as many of his companions as he could walk past after being beheaded. Following the granting of this request and the subsequent beheading, Störtebeker's body arose and walked past eleven of his men before the executioner tripped him with an outstretched foot. Nevertheless, the eleven men were executed along with the others. The senate of Hamburg asked the executioner if he was not tired after all this, but he replied he could easily execute the whole of the senate as well. For this, he himself was sentenced to death and executed by the youngest member of the senate."
Now you know why the executioner is typically as silent as the...well, you know.

We were encouraged to drink the wine, even while at work. So it was a very fun job!

Not enough to make assumptions, perhaps, by i fo think there is a distinction in broad terms at least.

Our species' survival up to now never really depended on comprehension of super slow events relative to a human lifetime. Any person tied up in immediacy will never get evolution nor understand how everything from continental drifts to the introduction of oxygen by plants has shaped their existence.

That'll be super easy, barely an inconvenience! We just show him popular culture stuff and just normal life stuff - just all sorts of stuff - and it'll make him want to go on a green screen and talk about how that stuff is bad. I know that sounds like a downer, but he'll do this man-from-mars concise breakdown of complex stuff that's somehow endlessly entertaining. Endlessly entertaining stuff on youtube is tight! And he'll be so distracted doing that he'll just completely forget about the constant crushing passage of time inevitably wearing away flesh, bone, even the most treasured ideas, and ultimately reality itself into just this super fine mist that eventually evaporates into nothingness.

Dear Nintendo, you did a good thing reviving the video games industry after its collapse.

QuoteMedieval Latin pirata "sailor, corsair, sea robber" (source also of Spanish, Italian pirata, Dutch piraat, German Pirat), from classical Latin, from Greek peiratēs "brigand, pirate," literally "one who attacks" (ships), from peiran "to attack, make a hostile attempt on, try," from peira "trial, an attempt, attack" (from PIE *per-ya-, suffixed form of root *per- (3) "to try, risk").
An Old English word for it was sæsceaða ("sea-scather"); a pirate-ship was a ðeofscip ("thief-ship").
I gotta admit, I like pirata. Very catchy. And "thief-ship" is growing on me. And sea-scather sounds cool, but no one except Supcom players understand "scathe" as a verb, so that's unworkable.
As for the clothing, it's like 99% exactly what you'd expect to see on a normal sailing ship. Very practical - dare I say piratical - for the time. Just normal seamen. Black Bart was a special case - known for his scarlet silk coat and waistcoat (hence the French nickname, le jolie rouge) Blackbeard was also a special case - known to enhance his image to the point that he could be compared to a wrestler walking into the ring. All an act to frighten others into submission, of course.
The dungeons in Morrowind were and are scary AF because the ambiance was so threatening and because at any moment, something could pop out and absolutely wreck you. And it didn't help that most of the NPCs are in the uncanny valley.

I must say, he's good. A continuous and often complete break from logic and reality will certainly have me not giving a shite at all about what happens. Please throw in a ton of AI graphics so I can disassociate 100%, why don't cha?
Thats just the point of view of a stupid atheist who lives in an artificial world where the Supreme Court is Trump's personal defense attorney, billions of people know they are going to heaven "up there" and we have a creation "museum" and a giant Noah's Ark building filled with stuffed animals. So yeah, there is plenty of "reality" to disassociate from without another movie.
So, two conspiracy theorists walk into a bar. Now don't tell me that is just a coincidence.

I've been listening to the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant lately
I read them decades ago, and remembered that they were very good, but I recalled few details about the plot. I'm about to begin the Second Chronicles, and I'm looking forward to the part where Covenant finally becomes more confident in the use of the wild magic. I hope I can get to the third Chronicles, which I never got around to before.

Ah, Supaidaman. I actually found the complete series on the Internet Archive. Haven't watched it yet because, well, fucking look at it.

I love how it loops so perfectly.
ISIS-K sympathizers in Russia:
ISIS-K head: "Here we go again with this Zelenskyy guy. The Kremlin seems to think he's some pro-lgbt Jewish nazi terrorist. *chuckles* And what, he paid some poeple to do an attack in Moscow then flee into an active war zone for safety? Absurd. It's us, actual islamacist terrorists you've known and been around for years."

Let me guess...someone stole your sweetroll?
Lol, some people on the internet...
So apparently, a "proof" that the Earth is flat is that someone - allegedly - flew a helicopter near Antarctica and saw an endless, unbroken expanse of ice. If you said that's because that's what Antarctica is, ding ding ding winner winner chicken dinner.
Also, and let's think about this for a second, if you see ice in all directions, it's not because you're surrounded by an impenetrable wall of ice. Obviously, you got there somehow. Secondly, and I can't stress this enough - the world is somewhat bigger than what you can see on the horizon. Unless you think the Earth is orders of magnitude smaller than what it actually is - which would certainly shave some time off the trip to Antarctica - that conclusion doesn't jive with reality and is therefore wrong.

She simply illustrates how the median person has the mental facility to filter-out bullshit that falls somewhere between moron and idiot. Fortunately, many of these same people have excellent mental abilities when thinking about other things. It still amazes me when a fully formed adult person (with shoes-tied), talks religion with full sincerity like a 4-year-old talks about Santa Claus. Same when sheeple actually believe people like Trump, Hitler, and Putin. Then the fucking internet comes along and with it, the melding of millions of flawed monkey brains.

Today seems appropriate for this:
Definitely can't stop at marijuana. Once you start, you HAVE to do harder drugs. Just like people who smoke. One day you smoke a pack, next day you're snorting cocaine. And people who drink? Oh, boy. You start with one bottle of beer, then before you know it, you're constructing a moon shine distillery in your back yard. Don't even get me started on coffee. Think you can just drink one cup in the morning? No, you start and soon you'll be drinking those caffeinated lemonades from Panera Bread, and you die of a heart attack.
Quote from: Blackleaf on April 20, 2024, 04:49:12 PMDefinitely can't stop at marijuana. Once you start, you HAVE to do harder drugs.
Yep. It's just like people who drink beer inevitably decide to drink spirits. It's either nothing or everything with people with no middle ground. So if any activity can be taken to an unhealthy extreme, then logically, it should be avoided entirely. Foolproof logic.
