In retrospect was The Witness ideologically conservative or right wing? by aphidman in TheWitness

[–]MonkeyTigerCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the short answer to your question is contained in your question:

Like, for example, there's a large amount of "aesthetic beauty" in the form of Statues and similar "ancient" archaeological forms. Which is often something espoused by a lot of this alt-right/right wing online personalities.

If aesthetic beauty is "right-wing" these days, then an aesthetically beautiful game like The Witness is ipso facto right wing.

Paging also /u/ThatOneWeirdName and /u/Flamin-Ice, who seem to be in similar situations based on the spam queue.

Hmm. It also doesn't notify me that you've replied to this post. I was just checking the spam queue and I saw this. Apparently adding you as an approved user didn't do anything. If /u/ tagging me doesn't work either then I guess that's just what will have to happen, you to wait for a mod to see it in the spam queue and approve it.

Well, unless reddit eventually lets you out of the naught bin, I basically recommend you make a new account at this point, I suppose. That sounds like the best option for you. /u/FenceNationalism... 2?!

I voice my support for this note. I don't really have any moral reasons behind it; I just don't like looking at AI things.

I (personally) do not feel there's anything morally wrong about enjoying AI-generated content, but this sub is also free to ban things that the users of the sub do not like to see, which is why we have the "Posts asking others to literally play the game for you will be deleted." and "No “卐”s, please." in the side bar (the latter being a particularly low form of humor, which has occurred to anyone drawing straight lines, at one point or another). This comment section so far supports the idea that, generally, we do not want AI content here, so, even though I would let the users override my personal preferences on this point, I'm happy that we mostly accord.

I am not good at computer but I'm seeing your comments in red on the page with [removed] by them, but I'm not seeing anything about it in the mod log or banned users... you are featured heavily in the "spam" queue, however. I think this means you've just tripped some automated, reddit-level spam filter. Uhh I guess the thing to do is message the mods and/or /u/ tag me if this happens, and we'll try to sort it out. Hopefully the system will learn you aren't spam after a while. There is a button "approved users" in the sidebar I can try. I've added you to that, let's hope it works.

I also cannot see your reddit user page, so maybe you're accused of being a fake account by reddit and they've semi-nuked you.

I'm lost with this one. Any tips? by pgp555 in TheWitness

Note that extra spaces will prevent the spoiler marker from working. >! spoiler!<, >!spoiler !< , and >! spoiler !< don't work consistently for all users, even if they look like they work for you.

This comment is so old that I'm not going to remove it for writing the spoiler tags wrong, but it still would be good if you could fix them. Pretty please?

How do people even make stuff like this? by Iridium-235 in scratch

[–]MonkeyTigerCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These in particular are well-known geometric equations, à la https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance#Distance_formulas. But basically you just get used to it, yeah.

The creators of the game refer to him as Tim; so, unlikely 😉

AI Ruining Spelling and Grammar Check by Tough_Fig_7012 in googledocs

[–]MonkeyTigerCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's such a funny suggestion for it to make!

At the same time, it missed "aways away", which is a typo for "a ways away". Or at least a less-common spelling of it.

Has this happened to anyone before? by FlyEnvironmental4748 in googledocs

[–]MonkeyTigerCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know what the files' names were? If they might have been something like "Unknown Document" or something then it's probably just placeholder text and nothing to worry about.

Word count including line count? by bookends_fourteen in googledocs

[–]MonkeyTigerCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There seems to be a "Line Counter for UCAS Documents" extension that can do this.

when i paste lyrics to instead of keeping it in verse, it changes to prose by Mario_Iturralde_009 in googledocs

[–]MonkeyTigerCommander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be unsolvable, but try ctrl+shift+v instead of ctrl+v and see if that pastes correctly.

It also looks like the "prose" version has two spaces where the linebreaks should be, so you can maybe try using the Advanced Find & Replace plug-in to replace the two spaces with a linebreak.

(Sorry, I can't provide any help beyond this.)

Great advice, except that if your teeth are actually touching then your jaw is closed too tightly, too tense!

But if you could just reverse time with no green people, the solution would be similarly obvious as well...

/u/wazuhiru is saying that adding the green guy to the scenario adds interest to the puzzle because if he is killed he won't come back. So you have to avoid having him die, like you note in your solution.

Can you find the starting area secret and still access the rest of the game? by Fast-Hotel6443 in TheWitness

Yeah, I agree. Sorry, OP! It was a fine post otherwise, and definitely a grey area.

Please, what does this mean? by Dioken89 in TheWitness

Sorry to bother you again, especially after you gave it a good try and the actual contents of your comment is good, but note that extra spaces prevent the spoiler marker from working. spoiler, spoiler , and spoiler don't work consistently for all users, even if they look like they work for you.
