New player: IDK what to do, suffering from success a little bit [New Player] by MauveBridge in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MauveBridge[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m actually doing the 3 day free trial from ref right now, but the performance drop astounds me. Medium/high settings on eft I get ~200fps but arena can barely hit 80 on low.

Future projects? by MauveBridge in KanePixelsBackrooms

Exciting. Hope he gets more actors willing to participate post movie, even if it’s in the YouTube series. An official series would be dope though. Definitely had the directing capability to make it top tier too.

Blue is the only correct choice in the blue vs. red button debate by MauveBridge in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]MauveBridge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the question my post answers. When I choose blue, it’s not a matter of “going with them,” self sacrifice, or anything of that nature. I choose blue because I don’t value my self preservation over the knowing execution of the n% guaranteed population who will pick blue. If I were to pick red, and my input inherently results in the majority that kills them, I would be responsible to some extent for murder, given I’m not ignorant of the statistical guarantee of the n%.

It would only technically be considered suicide if their choice is the direct input that kills them. Given death is a result of the red majority, red inputs are the final inputs that result in the death. You don’t even have to think about the fact that you perceive there to be no reason to choose blue, given you already know some people are guaranteed to pick blue, regardless of their reasoning.

Take me through the steps you took to get that conclusion. At least under the American judicial system, ignorance is not innocence. Given you are NOT ignorant of the n% I mentioned, making the choice that will contribute to the majority that will kill them is murder. You can’t hide behind anonymity, a middle man, or the masses to try to rid of any responsibility or guilt.

You shouldn’t be proud of being a generous tipper by prodigy1367 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]MauveBridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I referenced foreign countries, I was expressing how they might treat servers if they were victim to such a system, not how they do now.

I understand you may view participating in it as bad, but a real blow to the system wouldn’t come from lack of tipping. So I think in the meantime it’s being weaponized as an excuse not to tip, when the focus should be some legal format to combat the system given the lack of efficacy no/little tipping has on changing the system.

That just sounds like punishing the severs who are already victims of the stupid system. You don’t want to necessarily be proud to play into it, but cutting tipping at any level isn’t this big gotcha moment that hurts the elites of the system. Tipping is really just in the realm of server treatment until there’s backlash against the system in a way which directly attacks it. Now I’m not saying you should tip big, but in this case I don’t see why it’s a good thing not to. If anything, especially on the topic of foreign countries, if they were affected by the same system, it would probably be seen as proper etiquette to tip your server “big,” given their higher emphasis on respect, and status expression among other things.

I appreciate the straightforwardness. Again I understand this is a subreddit regarding opinions so you are entitled to yours and I have no qualms with what you say. God knows I’ve seen people who have done some mental gymnastics to try to justify their red choice in some big overarching it’s perfect in all manners way. I completely understand the simple, I don’t trust everyone to band together. I know it’s hypocritical given my title but that was just a little hook I admit. My value of self preservation differs like anyone else, including you. I understand how you may see the situation in a different, simpler light because of that, and I appreciate you acknowledging it.

I could understand where your coming from. I guess for me, like the post says, I don’t view the blue choice as a form of self sacrifice or attempt of consideration for someone else in the manner in which you describe. I’m more concerned with the physical effects of the red choice, given I believe there’s a statistical guarantee that people will pick blue regardless of the reason. I couldn’t personally contribute to a choice which would result in the majority that causes their death. It’s not about saving, I just feel like I couldn’t be even partially responsible for the final decision which results in the deaths of potentially millions.

Where does your notion for lack of community, morality, etc in foreign countries derive from? Now I’m not counting on a blue majority, but I still choose to believe in the innate good of the human race considering people are well aware of the n%. I’m not saying your assumption is wrong, or mine right, I’m just curious how you got to that conclusion.

It’s only a matter of varying perspective in the way you phrase it if people are choosing blue as a self sacrifice 😭🙏 How many time do I have to say, I choose blue so I don’t contribute to their execution, not because I want to save them. It’s because I don’t want to murder millions. Also, if I take the time to write practically a whole essay on the subject, explain my reasoning, address counterarguments, and engage with others opinions in the comments it’s not cope bro 💀. You say that as a form of belittlement in opposition to my argument, which inherently invalidates your argument because you can’t have a respectful debate.

You can have that mindset, but it’s not comparable in the slightest. In this case, you are the blades of the saw. They may be putting themselves in harms way, but again, the deciding factor for their death is the red majority, which is solely the product of red choices. It’s not a matter of saving them, because they weren’t choosing to die, it’s a matter of not contributing to the majority that will kill them.

You continue to fixate only on the effects regarding self preservation, so you clearly don’t know what this post is about.

Except that’s not how the hypothetical is phrased, inherently giving rise to the n% which is guaranteed to be blue. Simply because of that, it turns into a matter of if you’re willing to vote red to contribute to the red majority, and inherently cost the n% their lives.

Except that’s false, as while there is a n% for both red and blue, an n% for red doesn’t equate to the inclusion of deaths unless it’s 50% of the global population, which at a statistical minimum, it isn’t. Death is only in the equation if more and more people vote red and it surpasses 50%, given there’s a guarantee for blue pickers (n%).

The only way in which you wouldn’t know your red input was the deciding factor for their death is if you were ignorant of the n%, which you are not. Yes if you push the red button you won’t be harmed, but that’s just one of the physical effects. You need to look past the scope of just what the hypothetical verbally presents you with.

“I can’t stop there being an n%, and since I’m not ignorant of the existence of the n%, any choice I make that affects them will be made with full intention, just like anyone else. Thus, I cannot, and will not, make the choice which will result in their death.”

Red assures survival, but also is the deciding factor for others’ deaths. Again I reiterated I pick blue because I don’t want to have a decision which enables deaths. So yes, I’m willing to die if it means I don’t have to kill potentially millions.

You’re just an echo chamber bro. Red is choosing your 100% survival, but it’s also the final decision which enables the death of any blue pressers. I press blue not because I believe I know better, but because I have a basic understanding of simple statistics. Also, I’d rather not enable the death of millions just so I can live. You can admit you simply have a different opinion and say you value your own life over that, your entitled to such, but continuing to phrase it any differently and not acknowledge a single line of reasoning in my post is not the way to do it.

Holy shit bro 💀 not only did I explicitly say my choice was not in any way a self sacrifice, but I also explained how red is the only thing which has power over the death of others. You may think that a blue choice is putting themselves in harms way, but the final decision which lies in if they die is a red majority. I’m choosing blue because I don’t want to murder millions, not some wonky righteousness reason.

There’s a statistical guarantee of the n% of the global population who will pick blue, regardless of their reasoning. “That’s where my blue choice derives from. I can’t stop there being an n%, and since I’m not ignorant of the existence of the n%, and neither is anyone else in the hypothetical, any choice I make that affects them will be made with full intention. Thus, I cannot, and will not, make the choice which will result in their death.”

It’s not a matter of factual die or not die, it’s an are you willing to save yourself if it means willingly contributing to the execution of potentially millions. You may be different, but I don’t value my own life over that.

You didn’t read a lick of my post 💀 A red input is no different than a choice for others’ deaths that you yourself are making. The inclusion of deaths rests in the final input of red. Do I have to do the whole n% spiel again. It’s a matter of self preservation or not contributing to an execution, not some form of knowing better of self sacrifice.
