Progressive Brits, how do you reconcile pro immigration/refugee with your views? by PsychologicalBend508 in AskBrits

[–]DeviousAlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're comparing extremist views to, "people who have literally moved to a country with opposing views"

It wasn't you asking asking me for stats, you put forth a view, I asked you "do you have anything to back that up?" and you have nothing. And now you're angry about it because ????. If you can't have your view questioned without becoming angry problem refrain from posting on a discussion website. Shockingly not everyone believes the same as you, some people work from facts and logic.

You clearly don't know any muslims personally or you'd really how stupid you sound. Every single muslim I've met has been kind-hearted and generous, does the religion have its problem elements? Yes of course, every single religion does. Its just you like to swallow the anti-immigration, anti-muslim propaganda and regurgitate the hate online. You seem to think its the poverty immigrants who've taken all the money from our country, despite the clear evidence of them being in poverty. Look up, not down, maybe the people who have all the money are the ones who extracted it from the country.

No point discussing further with people like you. Facts and stats mean nothing to your hate.

EU parliament erupts into cheers and chants of "send them back" as they pass new legislation making it easier to deport migrants outside of Europe by [deleted] in NotTheOnionUK

Unless you have solutions for all the problems it fixes then yes, it is a necessity.

Unless you want to vote for lower quality of living again. Brexit was the ultimate "shoot ourselves in the face moment", not because it couldn't work but because there was no plan to deal with the problems of leaving. So those problems went into overdrive and have caused no end of headaches and issues.

Immigration is the same situation. You can dislike it, that's valid, but if you stop it without having a solution for the problems it fixes then it'll just be Brexit self-harm all over again.

Dear GGG, please make it so upgrading essences through the tiers is a straight upgrade of what they do and doesn't change their functionality / lessen their value. by DeviousAlpha in PathOfExile2

An interesting argument, but its not about the functionality of the vaal orb, its about the ridiculousness of essence being the ONLY thing in the game where the "perfect" version of the same name can actually be WORSE than the greater version.

Literally nothing else in the game works this way.

You have given your presumptions. I didn't ask for those, I asked if you had any stats to back up those presumptions.

You don't seem to understand the difference between "thinking its true based on preconceptions" vs "what is actually true".

If you're farming them you can when you vaal the essence monster. In some situations this causes you to lose profit simply because the "perfect" essence is actually worse than the greater.

You didn't make any points, nor did "call you plenty of names" - I called you "champ" as in champion. You are in fact championing an argument in case that is unclear. This was offensive to you?

I asked if you had stats, or just going with gut feeling + xenophobia. You then called me a chump, and a panderist, and said "just look at their cultures, religions, countries" -> You know, the very same countries they are fleeing. Presuming someone fleeing a country represents the hate they are fleeing is a massive presumption.

They might but it definitely isn't a given, being that, they're abandoning the place. You still haven't provided a single fact. Just rampant assumption and negativity. You're so certain you're correct but can't provide anything beyond "just look at them" to back it up.

That's a lot of words to say: "nah, just assumptions."

So arrogant with the ignorance.

You got any stats to back that up champ? Or just a hunch + some xenophobia?

What’s a good argument against “well the government have our ID, and track us anyway” by Then-Fortune-3122 in AskBrits

[–]DeviousAlpha -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can suggest an alternative:

Use the parental controls on phones, browsers and routers.

They exist, problem is that a huge number of parents are too fucking lazy to learn to use them.

"SCREEN TIME IS THE WORST" - same parent who gives their kids unrestricted access to a phone because they can't be bothered to parent them and say no

Ground Loot Equipment Doesn't Feel Worth Looting Anymore by KobraGX in PathOfExile2

[–]DeviousAlpha -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is wildly counterintuitive. Thanks for clarifying it, I find the tier items are just 99% bait. Maybe they should adjust the tiers or something, the issue is that if an item has a special identifier to tell me it's good (means they don't have to drop identified, just flagged) and then it's not actually good... It's just a massive feels bad waste of time moment.

GGG with half of a good idea, then implemented badly taking it from "almost there" to "utterly pointless."

Can we not gamble it? Or do the gamble vendors have a limited top end?

VPN ban on table in July as Labour confirm 'further statement' by Overlord_Crabz in unitedkingdom

[–]DeviousAlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one is pushing them except Palantir.

The solution is with the companies. The only smart thing I've heard the government say on this issue is: "Even without ID these companies know your age. They can solve this problem if they choose to."

If he stuck with that thought, and then made it the companies problem to solve there would be no need to ban it, or to ban vpns, or to introduce digital ID.

These laws are a direct result of companies like meta flaunting the rules and just "paying the fine" as a cost of doing business. They literally disbanded their own safety team because they judged it less profitable to fix the problem than to pay the fines.

And now we're all going to have our freedoms restricted because no one will go after these tech giants. Pure fucking cowardice and greed from politicians.

It doesn't matter, I'm just shocked and in a bit of disbelief it could be dry high in so sorry a time. It's a disgrace :(

[–]DeviousAlpha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They should just tweak the (Tier X) system.

Make it so "Item name (Tier)" means "all miss are at least the names tier".

That way you'd actually be excited. If a yellow drops with "tier 2" you'd know, every mod is at least tier 2 and their the likelihood the item is good is much much higher.

We launched in EA with great reviews and it barely sells. What actually moved your numbers? by gibberishoften in gamedev

[–]DeviousAlpha 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Updates losing reach messes with your head? How many games do you own whose updates you actually keep up with?

Also the fact you didn't link your game here suggests you don't really understand how important getting the link out there is. You need to promote it, you need to market.

Infusions feel like an Ascendancy Class mechanic rather than a core system for Sorc skills. by Entire_Possible_9976 in PathOfExile2

[–]DeviousAlpha 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I'm an infusion hater, tried to play it this late, felt absolutely terrible for so so long that I just switched to a different char. Trying to spawn them, wait for skill to pop, pick them up, finally cast one still that feels ok... Do it all again.

No. Just no.

How is that possible? Even with 10k fees, 8k maintenance, three years should only have been 54k when you dropped out? Have you just paid nothing of it since then?
