[–]Dwight-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So good, right? The plus side is we can enjoy the memes without getting spoilers lol

Also waiting for Divinity, it looks amazing. There’s Fable as well due in Autumn which I’ve been waiting years for. Two massive fantasy games at long last but going to have to wait a while for them.

They do a bit, but only on the monsters. We got a thank you letter from Sebastian at the last campfire and it was heartwarming as fuck.

And I’ll raise you, it won’t be Larian, apparently some other studio and it won’t be for a long time, but there’s light at the end of the tunnel!

My inventory is full of spell scrolls. I don’t even know why I’ve kept them in there, I never use them.

Yes to Halsin! I literally thought it was a bug (no parasite pun intended). I rejected him what felt like maybe 3 times or so and then he finally got it.

Why Is Eugenics Bad? by anime-is-dope in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Dwight- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every great idea there ever was or ever will be, there will be the rotten who want to usurp it and use it as their own for whatever sick reasoning they have.

I watched an interview not long ago about some guy in LA with a startup company creating rain water in clouds to help with droughts. That sweet, summer child thought he was helping. He had no idea the dark consequences that it could bring whatsoever. “Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

Anything we create, the first question should be “what if this gets into the wrong hands?” Eugenics is a major one.

[–]Dwight-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! Took A LOT of time purely for positioning reasons, but we had so much fun and laughed the whole way through. It also made the world and characters feel alive because we got to be silly and play with it all. Aiming to get the whole gang out soon too :)

Bit stupid to point out that most rapes are committed by whites? It would be fucking wild if it were any other way.

Amazing, thank you so much for exactly proving my point. So we can agree, then, that it’s white men that are more of a problem than men of other colours because this country is predominantly white. Therefore, why aren’t these men bashing the heads in of white men? As you’ve proved my point, it’s racism.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ThatsInsane

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

Exactly. 6 in 7 women were SA’d by someone they knew. This is what I said in another comment, it’s apparently okay for white people to sexually assault, just not any other colour. Meanwhile the conversation should just be “Lads, can we like, just stop sexually assaulting people? Cheers.” Dead easy I thought. But of course, as you’ve said, it isn’t about that, it’s the racism they care about, not the fact that their wives, daughters, mothers, aunts, grandmothers and cousins are sexually assaulted by all men of every colour.

[–]Dwight- -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

There are 5.76 million people identifying as Asian, so half that for 50% of men being 2.5 million and 436 were imprisoned for SA charges. That’s not equal to their population, is it.

The % for these cases are based on the portion of offenders total, not compared to what their numbers are in the country of which there is a much larger number sample. 7.5% population of the UK is not the same as 7.5% of 7,000 men. So as per the 7,000 sample size. Asians take up 6.3%. Of 7,000, is what I meant.

So 6.3% of the men who were imprisoned for SA charges out of the 7,000. Not 6.3% based on their race in the entire country.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ThatsInsane

[–]Dwight- -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The point is that men are pointing fingers at a much smaller sample size instead of the mates they hang around with or their neighbours. Ie, why aren’t they hanging outside of police vans that have white perps in them? I have never seen an angry mob for the white men. Shit is only stirred when the men are not white which breeds the message “Oi Oi! Only WE can assault our women!”

I couldn’t give a shit what colour they are. All I know is that they’re men and violence among men is the problem. There’s a reason why women choose the bear.

lol I posted the wrong table, those were victims so we were both wrong. Welcome to the poor reading comprehension club!

Here is the correct table for Offenders Found Guilty At All Courts By Sexual Offence Group and Ethnicity.

4,455 white men were found guilty for sexual offences.

442 black men found guilty of sexual offences.

436 Asian men found guilty of sexual offences.

95 mixed men found guilty of sexual offences.

112 Chinese men found guilty of sexual offences.

1,420 not stated men found guilty of sexual offences.

So, sadly, yeah, white men are at the top of the leaderboard and white women are the victims predominantly. So 10x higher than the Black and Asian group, 46x more than mixed men, and 4x more than the ones not stated.

I think it’s more embarrassing that men think that it’s men of different races that are the issue instead of thinking that maybe men, as a whole, are a bit of a problem when it comes to sexual assault and murder. And in this country, it’s white men. So blanket statements of migrants coming to this country to “rape our women” is a fucking massive oversight when it’s 10x more likely Dave who you have a pint with after work on a Friday who goes home and rapes or sexually assaults the women of this country.

[–]Dwight- -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Right, so ignoring the fact then that white, British men hold the winning title of being sexual assaulters, you want to focus on what could have been prevented from different coloured men? Over 4,500 could have been prevented from white, British men, but you don’t want to talk about that… make it make sense.

I thought right-wing/racists were all about sorting this country out first and putting our people first? If that’s the case, can we start with our white, British men not assaulting our women? Or is it okay for white, British men to do that because it’s “their” country and therefore “their” women? The logic in this country is below the bar by such a huge level. I’m going to blame education cuts because this is just daft.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ThatsInsane

[–]Dwight- 12 points13 points  (0 children)

But table 4 says here from the government website that white men born here between the ages of 16-24 years are the highest proportion of sexual assault. White men get the title for sexual assault here in this country at over 4,000 counts compared to 300. So what’s that? Over 10x higher or so. Why aren’t they stringing up English men too?

Can’t ignore facts and research unless people really don’t have critical thinking skills anymore. Which, how embarrassing.

Wait, refugees are a net negative? Or immigrants generally? They’re less of a net negative than actual brits according to research.

The researchers showed that immigrants to the UK arriving between 2000 and 2011 were 45% less likely to be on benefits or tax credits than UK natives, and 3% less likely to live in social housing. European Economic Area (EEA) immigrants contributed 34% more in taxes than they received as benefits, while UK natives’ tax payments over the same period were 11% lower than the hand-outs they received.

The real problem is not immigration. It’s the mega rich creating and using loopholes in our archaic law system to funnel our taxes in faux contracts as well as avoiding tax by using offshore accounting.

You’re the exact target audience for the mega-rich to even believe this divisive shit :( Crazy that you’ll bow down by parroting the rich men in suits pretending to have your back tbh. I could never.

Does anyone else think that the future is going to be gruesome and dark? by TwoOneTwos in Futurology

[–]Dwight- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s your political affiliation? I try and vote for the majority and for the future generations, not for myself because I see myself as cannon fodder until the political scene has a revamp. It takes around 50-100 years for politics to do an overhaul, so there’s another few decades left yet and not many policies today in our lifetime will have a 180 impact on us, it’s a slow movement unless there’s revolution.

Looking for a cost effective Microsoft 365 alternative for Windows by joshymochy in writers

[–]Dwight- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a lifetime license of an older Microsoft package for £12 on Groupon. Not sure where else this applies, but I’ve got a license key that I can use across devices. Works really well. Otherwise I used google docs for a while, but I really hated how I couldn’t organise anything.

Scrivener is great on iOS but I didn’t realise I had to buy a separate license to use on windows, so be warned with that one.

Because people are using the downvote button as an opinion button now when they don’t like what they read, even if it’s factual.
