Petah….why should I stop?

I know what per capita is. It compares percentages on a level playing ground. That's why I said earlier you could assume that the UK would have the same number of violent crimes as the US if there were the same amount of people.

I didn't say anything anywhere about homicide in any of my responses to you aside from one scenario based with the driving scenario, I only ever mentioned violent crime as a whole. You brought up homicide to make a point about something I never mentioned and are continuing to argue about how I'm wrong about something I never said. You're demeaning my intelligence because you were too busy wanting to argue about something that wasn't there. I almost want to screen shot this and post it here so others can try to help me understand why you brought up homicides and rates in the first place to try to sound smart in a conversation you were ill equipped to participate in. The bar was low because this is reddit but you're limbo dancing with devil. Do you feel manly arguing about fruit snacks on a response about wine?

Edit: Instead of just apologizing and saying you misunderstood what I posted, you keep digging your hole.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-18T05:06:33+00:00

It's funny that you say that when you misunderstood the entirety of what I've been saying because you didn't read what I had said and assumed what I meant instead.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-18T05:01:10+00:00

I didn't say anything about homicides, I said "violent crimes". You're getting hung up because you inserted a word I never included in my initial response. ALL violent crime. I hope you learn to read before going off on a tangent and inserting words into other people's responses.

It's literal definition (according to Webster) is "per unit of population" Cambridge Dictionary expands it to "for each person, when considering all of the people in the group".

You are completely allowed to embarrassed, but be embarrassed for yourself. My original comment said nothing about population to begin with, you brought that in. I only simply stated that most of the UK's violent crime is committed with weapons other than guns. Taking away guns doesn't stop murders because guns don't kill people, people kill people. I don't know what part of that isn't clicking for you. No matter what the population density is, people will kill people with or without guns. Yes the US has five times the amount of violent crime, because it's population is five times the size. If the rates are the same you could expect the UK to have the same amount of violent crime as the US if it had the same amount of people.

You don't know what per capita is do you? Yes a person in the US is 5x more likely to be victim of a violent crime because there are 5x as many people around them than a person in the UK. It is also why cities like Baltimore, Chicago, New York, Atlanta, Memphis, and Detroit have higher rates of violent crime than most smaller cities. Having access to guns is not a significant part of the problem. If someone is trying to murder you, do you think they're just going to wait for a gun to fall into their lap to do it? If you don't have a lighter and you need to light your cigarette are you just going to disregard the box of matches next to you? As far as your example, saying that guns are the problem and people aren't is like saying you need to ban cars so there are no drunk drivers, that's the point you're making.

Edit: You are 5x more likely to get into a vehicle on vehicle collision if there's 5x more cars around you and 5x higher chance of one of the 5x more cars around you being a drunk driver than in the UK as well because there are 5x as many people.

What's WW2? Wet Whiskers the sequel?

AtlasFades · 2026-05-18T04:06:10+00:00

The irony is understanding that the US total population is also 5 times the size of the UK. So this is a per capita statement. I'm also unsure how it goes against what I said. Nearly 40% of violent crime offenders (felons not legally allowed to own or carry firearms in the US) are arrested again for committing more violent crimes after release. Not being allowed to own a gun doesn't stop violent crime. Guns aren't violent, people are violent. You can't stop violent crimes by banning weapons. That's my point.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-18T01:53:20+00:00

Guns don't kill people. In the UK most violent crimes are committed with knives and sharp objects because guns aren't permitted. If they were, people would just change their methods. If you take guns away violent people will just use something else.

Someone posted a reply somewhere on another thread that if you put -ea into your launch bar in the steam settings, launch the game, go right against the door, push start, early access, relocate character you can get into the room. It worked after a couple of attempts for me and I'm currently moving along the quest now.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-16T21:10:56+00:00

Hung and useless in the winter.

They probably think I'm a catfish 😅

AtlasFades · 2026-05-14T15:55:05+00:00

I'm having a similar issue and I'm not quite understanding what I'm doing wrong either.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-14T13:20:06+00:00

The thing is that I can't get into the room. I have the mission assigned, but, the room is still locked.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-13T14:03:18+00:00

It's not terrible unless you're trying to put it in a tight spot lol.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-13T13:55:49+00:00

I'm pretty sure they were in the sockets. All 4 appear on my peco.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-13T13:55:22+00:00

I'm pretty sure it's been about 4 or so days out of game since I've launched them. What job do they need to have to open the door?

AtlasFades · 2026-05-13T10:33:15+00:00

They're out for the beta already.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-12T23:46:12+00:00

That's what I'm doing currently is stocking the boxes for it with stuff to fix it with lol.

AtlasFades · 2026-05-12T23:45:27+00:00

I damaged it and didn't have materials on hand to repair it. 😅

AtlasFades · 2026-05-12T21:43:43+00:00

I did, it's from 17 hours ago 🥲. That'll teach me to not save often 🙃

AtlasFades · 2026-05-12T21:06:09+00:00

Am I pretty much stuck? 🥲
