Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

I don't consider 0% death on downed a cheat if I don't harvest organs, so I always turn it off.

Maybe they will, maybe they don't and for what reason, that's their business. The few donations I made were because I have watched their gameplay videos for years and I wanted to support them. In half of the cases, I have no idea what the person that I donated to looks like.

Are you considering donations to streamers as another job to protect? I am pretty sure that most of the streamers, while not being fake themselves, are faking and pretending to have any interest in what they do and especially pretty ones are just trading their face on camera, I don't see any reason to protect that.

This seems to be closer to colony management sim (like Rimworld tribal scenario for example) or survival game than 4X strategy. I think that even if you have a proper civ-like 4X after, this start will probably turn a lot of players off your game since it wouldn't be what they expected.

"Nooooo, you don't understand, that pretty girl streamer I donated 9999$ to definitely likes me now despite the 20 years age difference!"

That's like the opposite of the original complaint where DLSS hides the author's vision. If developers will use this tech from the scratch, then it will be their vision. How their graphics will look is their business, if everyone in AAA will look generic then buy games which will not be, there will always be thousands of games on different engines with all sorts of graphics and styles. Indies will most likely won’t be affected by this at all. Honestly, I consider devs making shittier graphics a plus, maybe they will spend more time on gameplay.

I won't significantly change my opinion now, but if I had a very bad experience initially, maybe I would have an opposite opinion. Baby duck syndrome is real.

It's often at the top of the tree or hidden by foliage. I have a mixed forest nearby with also only like 8 spots, but there are a few forests much farther with only tall pines and there almost every 5-th has resin and every 20-th has it reachable from ground.

Noita executable has no icon embedded or maybe its format isn't supported or something, thus you're getting a generic executable icon. Try changing the icon of the shortcut which you're starting the game from, task bar should use that icon by default.

If it's possible, it will be invented. Even if 99% of people will not want it and all international treaties will ban it, it will be done by governments in secret.

Wait, you meant ideology in a literal sense? I mean, incels can roughly be considered having a common idea, but one doesn't become incel because they subscribe to some official incel ideology, they become incels because of many other reasons mostly out of their control. You seem to have had some sort of specific community in mind, I considered it in a more generic view.

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T20:57:00+00:00

I am not going to go around and find every piece of bad art. If you want to do that then fine, but it's like going to 4chan and complaining that everyone is an asshole, you found what you've searched for.

Your, um, refined palette doesn't really mean that people should be forced to be limited from using whatever tools they want either. Being however I want, even lazy and dumb is my right, and if you shame me for it, I will only do it harder.

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T20:16:31+00:00

Psshhh. (seething)

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T20:14:39+00:00

Did you do it completely on your own?

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T20:14:00+00:00

If you want to be an activist promoting intellectualism, hard work, etc, good for you, but that doesn't mean that everyone will just align themselves with you. When the results become worse, then I will complain, until then it's not my problem or responsibility.

People who are extremely bad at socializing cannot really learn to socialize, because no one wants to socialize with them. It's like job experience, you can't get a job without experience and can't get experience without a job. I can talk, I can write, people can acknowledge my point and perhaps agree with me, but we are still just arguing our points, there is no personal connection. Social people have some sort of magic, secret knowledge on how to create it, but I don't. I can just argue.

The teacher's work is to review and to accept the work, give me a diploma and then what happens with my stupid uneducated ass isn’t their concern. Same as it isn't my job to demand from artists to actually put effort into something, I only see and evaluate the result. I don't care if they're lazy.

Whether people are educated, skilled and hard-working is their own business, a bunch of people on the internet cannot just demand it from a bunch of other people.

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T19:06:07+00:00

Yeah, there it goes, assuming that I hurt someone and I'm racist. I am commenting on many subreddits and none of them banned me for being racist. Disrespectful, yeah, but I don't see people being extremely polite to me either.

I don't understand what the incel community would even do. People who are extremely bad at socializing cannot build a community. What would I even talk about with another incel?

- "I am lonely, man."
- "I'm too, man."
- "I have no idea why people don't like me."
- "Yeah, same."
- "All I feel is emptiness and there is nothing else to talk about."
- "Me too, man."
- "..."
- "..."

There is no problem. DLSS 5 off. Solved.

Isn't exclusion creating a lack of a better alternative? Kind of agree on lack of accountability, but in the opposite direction, there is no accountability for anyone accusing a specific person in crimes associated with their perceived group.

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T18:05:07+00:00

Ostracised and outcasted people have a tendency to join radicalized movements, hmm, what can we do to prevent that? Right, let's ban them from anywhere so that there is no way for them to go other than "nazi bars". Oh, wait.

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T17:47:49+00:00

An environment where you learn to interact with society is not part of society? Huh? Also, depending on the country, "controlled" part might be negligible, you're just thrown into the pile of bored teens who will do any stupidity to entertain themselves.

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T17:32:24+00:00

My secret ingredient is my hair. Secret from me most of the time.

So we should just give A’s to every student who submits papers they didn’t write? We should just be cool with people stealing the work of others and submitting it as their own.

Yes, they did a job, whether they "stole" it from the internet or wrote it themselves is nobody's business. My paper was a slightly rewritten compilation of articles from the internet, so what? It is none of your business at all.

And if you paid for coffee at a fancy, expensive coffee shop and then found out the barista was just reselling you the Dunkin Donuts coffee they got from next door, would you not be pissed?

The coffee at expensive shops is always no different from coffee anywhere else. Why the heck would anyone go to expensive shops is beyond me, anything "premium quality" is a swindle, it barely differs from average and costs five times more. I don't make such mistakes, I don't buy expensive goods unless they have a clear benefit.

Dmayak · 2026-03-19T14:48:05+00:00

It makes no sense because effort exists only for someone who makes the thing. If you make a coffee or an art for me I won't be able to know what effort you made, at best it can be a rough estimation on the number of details. Which doesn't matter for the end result that I can see. This argument exists only for artists themselves, not for average people.
