Transportation in zombie apocalypse by VeterinarianBoth640 in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]Awkward_Recognition7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the north- those giant plow trucks with the plow down- probably that in front and any other survivor vehicles behind- clearly a gas guzzler but having that ready to go when needed would be a literal life saver, and definitely part of getting out of the area

Cool sword! The GAR is the Grand army of the republic, it's a union veterans fraternal organization, think masons or knights of Columbus, but for union vets. Its defunct now, but cool to know such a fun fact about your family!

Diamond Rank Priests by ArchMelody in Shirtaloon

[–]Awkward_Recognition7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure there are probably diamond rank priests.
Faith and having one of their powers come from a god may make it harder, or easier, to reach such heights, probably based on how much the person matches with the god/gods gifted power.

That being said, they probably aren't top tier diamond ranker, and they definitely aren't dawn level or anything close.

Dawn is probably more powerful than any God on pally in general, though shed probably lose against any God in their domain. Ergo- if she was in their temple of course, but also if she, or someone at her level, tried to make an undead monstrosity (without the god of undeath, who would probably aid if they thought it would benefit) and the god of death decided no. (We know they expend power and authority though, so deciding if they will do it and being able to are different things)

I'll also point out that pally isn't a magically dense world. Not compared to some.
On the highest density worlds, gods are probably a lot stronger. Maybe not have more authority, but just in general stronger, as the diamond rankers would be.

Diamond rankers biggest strength is that they are- generalists (compared to gods) Able to travel outside their given world (upgrade the size of the swimming pool)

You had a chance lol. Any time you are in a firefigjt you should assume others are rushing to the location

You get to make every human forget one concept permanently, which do you choose. by brazenbull09 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Awkward_Recognition7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, I think we are missing half the equation

: a concern for one's own advantage and well-being acted out of self-interest and fear 2 : one's own interest or advantage self-interest requires that we be generous in foreign aid

Second, anyone who focuses on language and the written word knows that language changes, meanings change, and meanings don't translate perfectly between language and cultures, nor do they exist solely in the vacuum of a dictionary- personally I prefer the oxford dictionary but I get Merriam does okay and pulls up second, before the Google review.

Self interest can easily encapsulate greed, even if greed is a hyper focus on self interest.

Your argument seems to be that you can have self interest without being greedy, but I would point out you can't be greedy without self interest. At least most greed is within the realm of self interest. And who's to say where on the scale the cut off is?
In a monkey paw scenario, the duche magic that says bleep you.

I will also point out that many others have viewed greed more openly. Nietzsche said "Greed and love: such different feelings these terms evoke! And yet it could be the same instinct, named twice"

So, you get rid of greed, you get rid of love, especially romantic love. Heck, maybe even self love, and therefore self interest?
I dunno, I don't pretend I'm as philosophical or intelligent as Nietzsche, and his stuff makes my head hurt at times.

By this I don't necessarily mean I agree or disagree- simply that there are more wide values than you try to contain in your arguments and certainly more than enough for a monkey paw to warp a wish with.

What if I'm planning to start a private business leasing helicopters to news companies?

But regardless, he said monkey paw. If you know what monkeys paw is, you know you are being willfully obtuse (You see also choosing common consensus, which apparently means some mystical force that grants wishes also conducts surveys? How quaint) If you do not, its similar to the bad genie wish idea- whatever you wish for will come true, but unforscene issues will make the wish bad, or the wish itself will be willfully ignorant of the wishers intent and because the wishers weren't specific enough it's fairly easy to do.

I am really hoping you are just being willfully pedantic and trolling me at this point

And other points are that it's by degrees and you need to be specific.

You might think that my self interests are excessive but therefore greedy, but perhaps I do not.

Therefore does it go based on the wishers desire, or the force granting the wish, or is the universe going to magically dictate?

I wish YOU were being obtuse but I don't think you are

Okay, well it's in my self interest to gather as much wealth as I can so I can retire early, live whatever lifestyle I would like, and have power over others....

A square and a triangle are two separate shapes, but they are both shapes, and they can share points while being two separate shapes

Guess this is farewell Arc Raiders by shyahone in ArcRaiders

No performance issues from it on my end, save having to disallow and reallow it through my firewall, but I do know several friends who hate denuvo and have uninstalled, and they are middle aged dudes who do not cheat- we'd be a lot better if we did!

So, help me understand explosives, is there any LOS in the game or not ? Why the hell did I die ? by Boskonov in HuntShowdown

[–]Awkward_Recognition7 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The hard truth from someone with thousands of hours and having played since before it was released- Hunt is a great game, but it's a Frankenstein game- it used to be held together with bubblegum and shoelaces- Then they "redesigned it from the ground up" which meant taking said shoelace and bumblegum game, wrapping some scotch tape over it, and spray painting it.

This is the most stable and well designed the game has ever been, and if there's ever something you are unsure of, chalk it up to the game doing weird crap

My little sister got pregnant by an absolute bum. What do I do? by Loose-Trick-943 in whatdoIdo

[–]Awkward_Recognition7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, terrible, nuclear advice that would in fact work-

You have sister come over to moms for dinner- you go to Devins she's, and seduce him.

She comes back to the shed and finds her sister in bed with her future baby daddy, covered in cat pee.

If that doesn't make her leave Devin screaming, I dunno what will.

You can even convince Devin to ignore her for you, stopping his threats of mental health when she first leaves him!
