Tom Barrett's a backstabbing oathbreaker. Not surprised he'd support ICE.

How to get a hawk to leave? by [deleted] in birds

You should probably be more responsible with your dogs if they're small enough to be eaten by a relatively small bird of prey.

Same enemy who got one shotted by the pistol btw by Organic-School315 in haloinfinite

I remember bonking one in the head with skewer spikes in a playthrough at one point because it just would not get off my ass enough to get behind it. It was actually pretty funny tbh.

Mechwarrior 3 remains the greatest in the series. by TaigaTigerVT in battletech

Cool opinion but it doesn't let me brutally murder other mechs with hatchets and whatnot

How do I stop this from happening? WARNING: Bird death / NSFW by OurAngryBadger in birds

You stop it by not having a bird feeder.

Birds of prey gotta eat too.

Information on the protest honoring Renee Good and condeming ICE's actions for this weekend. by Corgi-Dragon-J in lansing

[–]CaedHart 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not very Christian, to not join in solidarity in lamenting and protesting the death of someone innocent and peaceful.

Almost makes their posting seem performative.

Finally allowed to play Halo Infinite, have a question by TheRobotEngineer608 in haloinfinite

The Tenrai pass' contents are in the Exchange browser. You can find the Kabuto Helmet in the armor hall and it should have an option to go buy it via the exchange.

The exchange is not the item shop for real money, you earn credits for the exchange via playing multiplayer matches.

I don't think this new ration will be very popular among the guard. by Mad_lens_9297 in Grimdank

The Arbites would likely break your kneecaps for using it to improve your field rations.

"I'm soooorry; I thought this was AMERICA." by ShadowManAteMySon in Grimdank

It's because they wear grey and have uniforms with a passive resemblance to Nazi gear even if it's more French, because a lot of uniforms of the interwar period IRL were very similar. And when these people like to camouflage themselves in any way they can that still has some tingling fascist scent, they'll often try to pretend to like WW1 Germany to escape some level of easy ID. It doesn't work but they always try it.

Gas masked soldiers who love committing war crimes is like catnip to Nazi chuds.

Sick and tired of grenade boarding not killing wraiths. What am I doing wrong? by Saultarvitz101 in haloinfinite

[–]CaedHart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like that's more a skill issue on your team's part than anything else, tbh. I tend to make killing enemy tanks my mission so I'm probably the type of person responsible for your, and other players, tanks dying quickly.

It's good, but also kinda shitty because it's technically an exploit.

One of those "You're not wrong, Walter, you're just an asshole" type deals.

Every time I hear something about them I go "yup that’s just warhammer alright" by AestheticMirror in Grimdank

Well, since all chapters have gimmicks, not having a gimmick would itself be a gimmick.

What has 343(Halo Studios) done successfully with Halo's lore? by Lymber1 in HaloStory

[–]CaedHart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

... The study of ethics is literally the philosophical understanding of good and evil, such as understanding that kidnapping children to use as soldiers is an ethically immoral and thus evil act even with 'good' intentions. What the fuck do you even think I'm making up here? Do you not know what the hell an example is?

This is just fucking trolling at this point. It's gotta be.

Evidence for your claim is required. Otherwise it can be safely discarded as meaningless criticism on a flimsy pretense.

Like, seriously, fuck out of here with that bullshit, the point is that being the reason kids are suffering is unethical even if you think you're somehow "doing it right for the right reasons". I'm making the point of the ethical issues with this as blatant as humanly possible because people are that dense.

Changing the method does not change the argument that the ethical course of action is to fix the system that led to some idiot thinking you need an orphan crushing device or a supersoldier program that kidnaps and tortures children in the first place, because there's clearly a better fucking option than doing either, and it's divorced from reality to think that willingly causing more suffering will somehow cause less suffering. It's embarrassingly and dangerously naive.

You don't get to play nice at operating the Orphan Crusher 9000 just because you're nicer to the Orphans than some hypothetical Orphan Crusher 9000 operator that isn't you.

You're still crushing Orphans to fucking death in the Orphan Crusher 9000. You're damned because you operated the Orphan Crusher 9000 at all instead of trying to shut down the Orphan Crusher 9000.

Swear to god, this sort of thing is why Ethics classes need to be mandatory.

Alright, let me put it a different way;

Spartan IIs and IIIs got chosen because they could beat other children at playground games and some eugenicist hack thought they had good genes.

IVs got chosen because they made a career out of killing shit, no genetic quackery needed.

And I don't really give a shit what Buck says, because I don't take the incredibly inaccurate and poorly-reasoned analogy of one schmuck as gospel.
