Yeah I’m on the verge of blocking ml as well as hexbear, it’s insane the level of mental gymnastics that’s happening. Like what do they think Russia is going to do any less damage to the world than America if they get the chance?

Do you normally control more than one character then? I’ve only ever controlled one character in the ff I’ve played so that sounds weird.

Well the way you said “we don’t need to play anything on Linux” implies that you’re against the idea, my response was asking what you’d be doing instead. I’m not lost, I was wondering what headspace you’re in that you’re against that entirely. However it looks like you meant it in a purely literal sense. Most games aren’t exploiting children though, so that’s why I’d draw a line there.

Maybe they’re doing work that involves moving a bunch of furniture around and they get a portion of it from IKEA?

Well if you’d rather nobody plays anything on Linux then you obviously have something else in mind so it has everything to do with this. You’re the one insisting that it should only be used for some other purpose.

Yeah I think the biggest thing is not going into it actively looking for some kind of relationship

We’re already in the sun’s gravity well. The hard part is getting any point in your orbit to be close enough to the sun to use it’s atmosphere to slow down (or just hit it and disappear, that’s the easy part). Our orbital velocity around the sun is 29.8km/s, a low earth orbit would be in the range of 6.9-7.7 km/s depending on altitude and you can’t really get anywhere in space without getting off the planet. So even if we ignore everything else you’d still need enough fuel to change your velocity by nearly 40km/s. To carry the extra fuel into orbit you’d need a much bigger rocket and that means more fuel and expenses. In fact I’m pretty sure it takes more fuel to get into a circular low solar orbit than it would take to get to any other planet.

What would you rather do then?

Yeah same, ml is getting worse

I’m surprised turkey is the first one to do this but… good.

A bullet that is not at rest relative to the point where an external force has acted upon it.

Yeah I’d suggest looking at frames of reference and how time dilation keeps the speed of light constant or in other words special relativity.

Lemmy’s mostly alright, it’s nice that it is more politically open, though I’ve seen a lot I don’t agree with from some groups, namely hexbear, but also a bit from other places. ml is a mixed bag for me but at least you can just straight up block things easily.

Yeah, what’s important is internal consistency, I love hard sci-fi but I also appreciate some of the more fantastical worlds like the cosmere or final fantasy 14 because they set up rules and don’t throw them away. That’s why I hate whenever people come along with arguments like “oh it’s a fantasy world so anything could happen” because that’s not how it should work.

Well that’s fucked, but nobody said anything about Christians or any kind of rituals, I think it was in reference to the ongoing genocide.

Just bring a small diesel generator with you, then you won’t need a cable as long

What surprises me is how many developers haven’t realised that you can have a game that looks good without it being insane from a technical viewpoint, a solid art style does much more for a game than graphical fidelity. That being said, more graphics isn’t a bad thing as long as it’s not the only thing.

Why do they have the dota symbol though?
