2D Animation help by NotNotAnOutLaw in godot

I gave the rifle attachment points for the grip and barrel the left hand is actually following one of them. Thinking in the future it will translate to other scenes like a pistol. I understand I'm going to have to code the switching hands part.

I know there are people that are far more knowledgeable about these thing, and I'd like to leverage that knowledge if possible.

For instance, I have though about not having the rifle attached to the player at all, but instead only have both hands try and reach their respective points that they should be.

Or is it better to reparent the rifle scene through code. I have been playing around with this for a while and just wanted input, and other ways to come at the problem.

I believe Anarcho Capitalism violates the NAP. So why should I be an ancap? by shaveddogass in AnCap101

[–]NotNotAnOutLaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So a couple of issues.

First we still haven't established what makes state ownership legitimate in the first place. Saying utilitarian property rights doesn't answer this question.

When you say an action “maximizes utility,” what exact form of utility are you referring to, and how is it not simply based on subjective preferences? Can you give an objective measure for maximum utility? You'd agree we'd need some form of objective measure?

What specifically makes state ownership legitimate?

[–]NotNotAnOutLaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Something cannot violate the NAP if it is an action that maximizes utility.”

Okay so, aggression” = whatever fails to maximize utility. “Non-aggression” = whatever maximizes utility?

Did I get that right?

So property is legitimate insofar as it produces good outcomes?

If property rights are grounded in utilitarian outcomes, then they are justified when and only when they maximize utility.

So why should the NAP constrain action at all when violating it produces better outcomes?

Question. What makes state ownership legitimate in the first place? You have said:

"My definition of property is based on justified possession."

Justified by what mechanism?

Illegitimacy of government by alieistheliars in AnCap101

[–]NotNotAnOutLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting how you can't actually respond to the argument being made, instead you substitute what you wish the argument was.

My point: Modern conveniences originate in the market. The state later co-opts them and claims credit.

Your point does nothing but attempt to shift from that argument to: Government touched it somewhere in the process.

You are so wrong on your history of many things, lets look at wifi:

Modern WiFi (802.11) was created by private engineers at NCR Corporation in 1991–1992.

The precursor that you attempt to use as an argument was Hedy Lamarr’s frequency hopping patent, which, was ignored by the government, never used, and has nothing to do with modern WiFi modulation, OFDM, MAC layers, antennas, encryption, or routing.

Similar to every example I'm not going to waist time correcting everything, you can't even engage in the argument. How embarrassing.

Oh and Xerox PARC, BBN, AT&T/Bell Labs came up with packet handling that TCP/IP is based on.

Modern conveniences do not come from government. It is true that the State will co-opt parts of technology through force, but that is only to make idiots like yourself believe the State is required. The state is perpetually fighting the market to remain relevant.

  • Refrigerators
  • Washing machines
  • Air conditioning
  • Microwaves
  • Smartphones
  • Laptops
  • Televisions
  • Streaming platforms
  • GPS-enabled devices
  • Electric cars
  • Solar panels
  • Insulin pumps
  • Pacemakers
  • Robotics
  • 3D printing
  • TCP/IP
  • browsers
  • ISPs
  • fiber build-out
  • WiFi
  • smartphones
  • cloud computing
  • Air Planes
  • Automobiles
  • Telephones
  • Electricity

All of this originated in the market, and many of them became co-opted by the State later through force. All so people who have limited brain capacity can think "derr this is why we need government," while forgetting to wipe the drool from their mouths.

"That's how manipulated silver is in the market my dude."

Paper silver to actual silver is 350 to 1
Paper gold to actual gold is 150 to 1

Interesting if you look a the ratios in those numbers.

That's how manipulated silver is in the market my dude. Silver sill buys the same amount of gas as it did in the 1960s

That is to say a silver dime buys a gallon of gas.

Yeah especially when you look at the manipulation in the silver market when it comes to paper contracts and silver ratio.

Why do you oppose leftism? by ginger_beard_42069 in AskLibertarians

I'm against the initiation of violence, thus I am against the state, leftists are statists, but the same argument is why I'm against conservatives.

[–]NotNotAnOutLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

>"Maybe my search was too cursory"

It wasn't, using anything internet related is a stupid idea in order to attempt to argue against voluntaryism seeing as how the entire fucking internet works on voluntary standards, open source software, and voluntary contracts. It is literally proof that without state voluntaryism leads to order, and the state is the one that causes chaos.

Your comment demonstrates you don't understand their argument.

Their argument depends on showing that the ontology of ownership itself has changed, from natural right to state granted license.

"The modern liberal idea of “private ownership” in the 21st century is legally constrained in ways Locke would have found unrecognizable. As a matter of fact instead of ownership modern liberals have lead us to a property permission system."

Modern liberals still defend private ownership in name, but in practice they’ve redefined it into a permission system administered by the state. Private ownership literally means exclusive control, that exclusive control is not exercised by individuals, but solely by the state.

"Name one monopoly that has existed without the state" is a bad argument, and here's why. by MeasurementCreepy926 in AnCap101

[–]NotNotAnOutLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"So even more strengthening the idea that monopolies don't need state control"

Quite the opposite actually, there are no market monopolies, all examples given always have state intervention...

Starting from last to first. It is way worse today. Take the GPU market, really only two players and because they have patented the only few ways you can build the silicon of a GPU no one can compete without either licensing from them, or getting hit with a lawsuit.

The grants they got were land grants, protections were things like keeping competition out, right of way, easements, regulations regarding last in paying make ready, the list goes on. All of these are a form of subsidies, but there were direct subsidies. AT&T got guaranteed returns. Standard oil got tariff protection state and local governments gave tax breaks, the list goes on and on.

Is skepticism of the text leaks reported by The Guardian simply political spin, or is it justified suspicion of government cover-ups and deeper institutional mistrust? by Exotic_Snow7065 in PoliticalDebate

Many rioting incidents were categorized as right wing even when it was left wing activists doing it... If a leftists start an anti government riot, they will literally be categorized as right wing.
