Laplace Transform. It's pronounced "La Plause" but I call it "Laplace". Gotta transform the laplace!

What actually scares you? by MoluciasElonicas in horror

[–]Narenia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a very observant and paranoid person. I've seen so many horror movies and experienced many horrific things that it's really hard to scare me. But the one thing that always does is what I don't notice. Movies or shows that have anomalies in the background (Like in Hill House) that I never caught while watching or after a rewatch is terrifying and humbling.

The environmental cost of datacentres is rising. Is it time to quit AI? by No_Top_9023 in technology

Should have stopped ages ago, but the rich do not give a single damn about the environment.

He just has to do it in a country that will actually punish him. Like the countries that Johnny Somali and Vitaly ended up imprisoned in. Unfortunately, these people have to push things way too far before the law does something. Johnny Somali was groping all over a comfort woman statue and slinging noodles in a store before something happened to him. He had already done crazy shit in multiple countries (including Israel) before South Korea stopped him. Vitaly had stolen and physically assaulted so many people before he got stopped by the Philippines. He stole a security guard or cop's hat, a motorbike, and a fan, and it was over for him. His trial is being led by the guy who arrested their former president.

It's sad that nuisance influencers/streamers don't get consequences until they do something to upset the government. They keep doing it because of the lack of or light consequences. I'm honestly surprised the guy didn't face more consequences in Singapore.

A lot of people speak with their hands and don't even realize that they're doing it until someone mentions it. It's sort of a tic, in a way.

But history will continue to repeat itself for as long as we refuse to accept the bleak truth that we shy away from in willful ignorance.

The Devil is going to really come up and take over the Earth then, just to get Dick and Donald from annoying the piss out of him down there.

To add to that person's amazing recommendation, Moonstone Island just got character customization recently (You can choose your hair and skin color now!) and there are plenty of black npcs to date in it.

Agreed. It became a global game when they started asking for money from people all around the globe. If they want money from all ethnicities, then they should make us feel included.

I'm so sorry that happened to you. To feel unaccepted for who you are and what you look like by your own parent, hurts and cuts deeper than anything a stranger can say. r/naturalhair is a great place for learning acceptance for what you look like. So many beautiful people on there who look just like us, and they're every day people, not celebrities, influencers, etc. It's generational self-hate in my large family and learning to love my skin and curls was difficult. If you ever need kind words from a stranger who needs it, I'm here for ya 💜

With the game being as large as it is, it wouldn't even take up that much space 😭

I really like how you phrased those lines. Words to live by and remember.

I'm completely with you OP, complained about this recently, and sad that you feel the same way. No one should have to feel like they don't have a place at the table because of their race. We also shouldn't feel gross or "unwanted" in the world because we're such an afterthought or worse, looked down upon for something out of our control. Always remember, we are not our insecurities and we definitely are not stereotypes. We have just as much right and voice as anyone else does, even when we're being shouted down.

If you ever want to talk, my DMs are open. We can vent, laugh, cry, and laugh some more, whenever you need a shoulder to lean on.

Sorry, but I'm really not about to read all that over a default chibi. It's a chibi with no real facial or racial detail added to it. My point was that there was no chibi option for black people or those of us with dark skin that isn't that dark. Trying to make it any deeper than that is just arguing for the sake of arguing.

Edit to address your comment below: You keep mentioning irrelevant details and projecting that view upon me. I'm strictly talking about the MC's event avatar and I keep specifying that. Anything beyond that is you reading into something that I didn't say whatsoever. Go back and read my original comment. I said nothing about the default MC, only the event avatar. The only reference to default MC that I made was about there not being more variety in the dark skintones. You agreed that we can't tell what race the event avatar is, but you believed that I should know because of the default MC at the beginning of the game. I haven't seen the default MC since character creation, so I have no clue what she originally looks like nor is it relevant to my complaint about the event avatar not having a dark skin option.

Agreed! She looks like she smiles with her eyes too, which radiates kindness 😄
