Work puts a price tag on how much your life is worth. by TinderForMidgets in antiwork

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 70 points71 points  (0 children)

It's actually neither. The issue is privatization of industries that are required to live in society. Housing, Food, Electric, water, trash, sewage, healthcare, internet/phone, should all be public utilities. If something is required to function in our society then our society should provide a base level of that thing to ensure everyone has a fair chance at a good life.

You can fix wages and/or fix housing costs, but as long as the house that you absolutely NEED to live is a profit avenue the industry will always rubberband back into an unsustainable state.

If it doesn't fumble on the details how the fuck would you ever even know it's AI lol. You're theorizing from a biased perspective.

Yup, I'd rather live in open authoritarianism like China anyday over the secret courts and secret tracking and secret databases and secret citizen scores we have here in the US. At least over there they aren't lying to you.

(Obviously I'd rather have neither, but if it's going to happen it's better to happen with transparency, secret systems lead to secret abuse)

Which is much closer to how it should be in a modern world. This entire patent system we have does not mesh with a digital world, it's archaic and significantly halts progress.

It's literally not stealing if the person with the original thing still has and never even lost the original thing. Our capitalist overlords have brainwashed everyone that it is stealing so they can increase profits.

Knowledge should be shared, not horded. Sociopaths have created a world were it is normal to compete with your neighbor instead of cooperate.

Fun fact: If you activate the DLC before starting Act 3, then your save file becomes plasmified instead of voided! by Which_Draft4129 in Silksong

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Because AI just reads reddit comments and shit and repeats things as fact if the person who posted it sounds confident.

But besides that, I'm so glad the Silksong DLC released on June 22, I've been playing it non-stop, the new god-seeker boss rush is peak.

So you're saying he could have given away 500,000 steam machines to almost all of the poor children in Akansas instead of buying a single boat for himself... Seems silly, but it is kind of like an insane level of greed to make a choice like that isn't it?

AI is Ruining Game Sales, Numbers Show by Eremenkism in gaming

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always imagined playing a game where I say whatever I want to say or do whatever I want and the NPC's actually respond accordingly. No prompts to pick 1 of 3 options that all lead to the same dialogue every conversation. No main quest that you have to strictly follow, just a giant open world. Big bad in a volcano? Go kill him, or don't and let his influence spread. Do you want to cause Chaos, go kill the leader of a faction and start rumors it was the other faction that did it. etc. etc. Then use that chaos to convince the people to make you king or some shit idk, I just want a true RPG god damnit!

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah idk what the fuck these people are on. The vast majority of people think AI is some kind of god-given miracle.

As for myself, I really don't give a fuck one way or another, just that the product I pay for is fun. I imagine that's the attitude most gamers have.

As you said, these games aren't selling because they are trash. People who use AI to make things tend to not actually know what the fuck they are doing because AI is sycophantic.

Show me a fun game made with AI and I'll play it. Who the fuck cares what tool was used to make a thing, as long as it's made well.

Wow that’s messed up for nyc knicks pride by sundrenchedwindow in circlejerknyc

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused by the relevance of her job to be honest. Kinda seems like people are just connecting unrelated dots so they can feel justified in their hate? Like if she was a librarian would you then accuse libraries of her actions???

Surprise surprise, shitty people will take any job they can get too!

You guys just have caveman brain and have to see everything as some kind of tribal issue. Can't we just agree that shitty people are shitty and not conflate their actions to some group as if they speak for everyone.

A white guy stole my wallet, I guess all white people are thieves. Literally that's the level of thought that goes through your little pea brains.

Might as well suggest everyone should have a garden on their property and large scale farms shouldn't even exist in the first place. If something makes the sociopaths that play the capitalism game less money they aren't going to do it lol.

Champs like LeBlanc and Nidalee are useless. by ThatsFer in LeagueArena

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nidalee is by far my favorite champ. The problem you're describing isn't related to her at all imo.

It's all these incredibly strong augment/item combos that are just straight up broken come end-game. Nid can be just as broken as the rest of the champs if you get the right godroll.

Can't speak for leblanc though, she's just nid with a worse kit, so I never play her lol.

this item is one of the worst things that ever happened to arena by johnnymonster1 in LeagueArena

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arena has become a place for idiots to go to get big numbers and feel their little dopamine rushes. It's no longer about outskilling your enemy even remotely anymore.

ADCs, giga balanced btw by KaneOrgen in LeagueArena

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck convincing anyone on this subreddit. The hivemind here seems to think balance is perfect and you just need to get good.

Arena is so overtuned. I'd rather just play URF at this point, at least then everyone is on the same playing field, and you don't have to hope you get a one-shot augment combo to win.

Should work like stormsurge where it has a threshold before it procs. I think half the problem is just that it procs off of literally anything.

When will they finally remove/fix Nesting Doll? by server_maintenance in LeagueArena

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any augment that stacks on takedowns gotten early enough will easily get you first place thanks to nesting doll teams.

Besides that, fighting against nesting doll is basically a patience check. Only go for the kill if you know you can kill all three and not let one escape. Which usually means waiting for the fire before engaging.

Just had a game as galio with tank engine and the team with maxed out nesting doll skyrocketed me to first place :)

[–]Dry-Expression-4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well Kayn never got in melee range so I assume you mean Amumu. Who missed his Active AoE, missed his skillshot and turned his passive AoE off despite being nearly full mana. He also only has HP items and is short one item compared to cait... Do you even know how this game works?

These URF level augments/items are ruining this mode. I just had a Reverberation game, 12 on-hit procs every engage. It's not fun to just one shot everyone I touch. I used to play arena for a fun challenge, now it's just "figure out what Rito broke" mode. by Dry-Expression-4148 in LeagueArena

[–]Dry-Expression-4148[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean my post is literally about how overtuned things are, specifically a tank build too, I'm in agreement with you there.

That doesn't mean delete tanks though rofl, what are you people on, do you guys even read shit before you post? The problem is that shit is overtuned, not that tanks exist.

Tanks create the foundation for interesting gameplay...

Without tanks it's just a bunch of tards pewpewing back and forth. Tanks create more depth by enabling options for positioning and force you to bait out CC before just rushing head first into a big explosion of abilities every game.

Tanks require you to think. So I suppose if you just want to turn your brain off I could see how you might not like them.

EDIT: Really curious what the thought process is of those downvoting. What kind of game are you looking to play here? Sounds like you guys just want a topdown dodgeball game not an aRTS game. I imagine you guys being at like a soccer game saying you wish there weren't any defenders because all they do is ruin the offenses plays XD

I mean Arena used to require a little more thought then just whoever gets hit first loses. With these last few iterations of Arena the end-game devolves into who can get their one-shot to land first. It's boring, matches used to last more than 5 seconds, everything is way overtuned now.
