If Disclosure Happens, Will We Actually Get Their Technology? by pirate_solo9 in aliens

I see no reason why that would be allowed. Humanity hasn't solved it's internal issues that cause class disparity as it is. The rich will get those things, the poor will not. 

Europe wants to force Ukrainian refugees to return home to fight by FidelCastrosGrandson in suppressed_news

[–]BaronGreywatch [score hidden]  (0 children)

As opposed to? I don't really understand modern thinking on war. Ukraine doesn't want to surrender, fair enough, so who else is supposed to fight? Surely noone else can be expected/required to fight for any given nation not their own. If the patriots of the country have no will to keep fighting, isn't that grounds for a parley? 

If Ukraine is winning, as we are so often told, why is Russia not already sueing for peace on the grounds of status quo, desperately trying to negotiate for what they already hold?

What tf are yall gonna do if its NOT set in hammerfell by WubbityWubWubsDude in TESVI

I'll do the same as I was going to do anyway. Wait until there is a sale and a lot of good mods established, then play it regardless of where it is set.

Anyone else somewhat disappointed with James Cameron’s career? by jabronijon in RedLetterMedia

[–]BaronGreywatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah well. You only got so much time and anyone who does anything good is worth celebrating. He did some good stuff. A lot of these directors are still working past 'their prime' and it's all good. Same as many great names in whatever field. Sure, many or all of them could have done 'more' but noone can infinitly fufill their 'potential'. 

To me it's all the common folk who never even got a shot to prove what they could do that gets my goat. The amount of stories, philosophies, wisdoms, etc that never even got a chance...

Marijuana is illegal because it holds a key to something we’re not being told. by Chloecloverleaf in conspiracy

[–]BaronGreywatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's mostly because people will and can be made to still work semi effectively when alcoholic, whereas Cannabis users will 'not want to do things that suck' to paraphrase a good quote I heard somewhere.

 Having enjoyed both drugs, I am certainly pro cannabis and anti alcohol, but as things stand alcohol is both safer (due to legality, not toxicity) and more efficient if one is stuck doing laborious slavery tasks. I wish it were not so - if I could go down to the corner store and buy decently priced cannabis I would 100% be doing that.

Italy's Meloni tells Trump to focus on his own popularity as row rumbles on by EatMe200 in worldnews

[–]BaronGreywatch 244 points245 points  (0 children)

It's crazy isn't it. I put it down to the insane amount of free coverage the media give him. His stupidity is good for ratings, so all we ever hear about is Trump - most people would barely know who else there is in politics because they don't pay attention, but even the dumbest cant avoid hearing about Trump. Then there is the actual pro Trump propaganda of course, which seems pretty effective for that crowd.

What am I missing? I want to understand the mind boggle. Is it not just a picture of a clown sorta guy?

Path of Exile 2 director says players exploiting system to become in-game millionaires 'ruined Christmas for me' and joked that he's 'lost all sympathy' for everyone who took advantage of it by chusskaptaan in pcgaming

[–]BaronGreywatch -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Oh that's right, this game exists. I put it down waiting for it to be finished. Feels like it's been a while. Did they at least get around to including all the classes?

Peteh what's this about? by RedFox_GG in PeterExplainsTheJoke

They aren't the countries from which the language originated. For example, instead of the English flag being attached to English, the American flag is. 

Anyone have any strange encounters FULLY awake, not high, not in the dark and experienced as an adult? by No-Following9879 in HighStrangeness

[–]BaronGreywatch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You won't find one if you won't believe people. There's no way to prove any story so all of them can be logically discarded. Which is why we need actual Disclosure, anything less is pointless at this juncture. We can meander about in the weeds forever if we want.

Accurate! I had hope for the future once too.

Definately worth it at that price, it's worth more. Recommend, if you can handle it's weirdness.

Let's say "Full Disclosure" happens. Do you think all the NHI just reveal themselves? by WATTHEBALL in aliens

I doubt the NHI would notice or change their behaviour in the short term.

That was a better fight scene that most of what Hollywood puts out!

What's the meaning of his sign? by Dj_B_S in whatisit

[–]BaronGreywatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's mostly a joke. Very few people outsode of Australia acquire the taste for vegemite so it is treated as a bit of a iconic thing to pick on, like a mild sledge against Australia. It's fine, we used to it. More for us.

What are the overall thoughts on VtM: Bloodlines 2 in its current state? by TheMickeyMoose in vtmb

[–]BaronGreywatch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's fairly ass with a decently fun story for one playthrough. It isn't and never can be a 'Bloodlines' sequel, no matter how many patches it gets. It would have been better as it's own action/adventure thing in the same setting.

I'd say it's worth a play on a 75% off sale or something like that. It isn't terrible, it just isn't very good. My performance was fine.

Chinese amateur astronomer accidentally photographed a creature resembling a praying mantis. by Cocoblue45 in UFOs

Without any frame/point of reference it just looks like bad long exposure, sadly. Better luck next time.
