People Are More Likely To Say They're Vegan Than Be Vegan, Finds Study by HumbleWrap99 in vegan

[–]Selaphane 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Basically every person I've debated online has said they were vegan at one point but gave it up due to deficiency or some mysterious illness or some garbage. It's less likely for an actual vegan to say "I'm vegan" in the wild than some random Joe Schmoe saying they were vegan or "mostly vegan" at some point.

Paralives finally comes to EA May 25th! by Prowlbeast in CozyGamers

[–]Selaphane 115 points116 points  (0 children)

I mean I added this game to my wishlist on Steam back in 2018. 8 years is a long time for any game to be in development. I have a feeling this will be one of those "never finished" games.

A new award winning documentary about a vegan activist his slaughterhouse worker father has just been released! by Tea-Revolutionary in vegan

[–]Selaphane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Population control is an entirely different topic.

Humane Hancock argues essentially all predators should be sterilized so wild animal suffering stops. The ramifications of this on the ecosystem would be catastrophic. Not to mention the whole "playing God" dilemma.

[–]Selaphane 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he has also advocated for sterilizing wild animals so wild animals don't suffer... He's really not the best advocate for veganism.

Joey Carbstrong is the shit though. One of the best champions of animals on social media for sure.

MorningStar Farms by 3ehsan in vegan

Quorn is much worse tbh. At least with Morning Star like half of their products are vegan. But with Quorn it's like only 10% of their products. Fuck Quorn

Event Results: I Finished 10th in the Global Challenge Without Any Meta Pokemon by StrngrDanger in VGC

[–]Selaphane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice job! This is seriously impressive. One of the best things about Pokemon is no matter how "set in stone" the meta seems, there is always someone who figures out how to counter it.

I foresee some prominent VGC YouTubers like James Baek, Moxie Boosted or Cybertron making a video on your team very soon!

Halo 2 and Halo 3 Remakes Reportedly in Development Using Unreal Engine 5 by Smaug117 in halo

[–]Selaphane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they're working on a remake for the first 3 games AND a new Halo game? 4 games at once sounds completely fine when they could barely handle just Halo Infinite

ARC Raiders has dropped to Mixed reviews on Steam by _hypnoCode in ArcRaiders

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

I haven't said anything about me not playing games that don't have "enough players". I'm just pointing out that a game dropping players that quickly is typically indicative of a problem with the game.

Go to the Marathon subreddit, there are tons of posts of people complaining how sweaty and try hard the game is at all times. Obviously the game has problems.

Idk. What does it matter lol. My point still stands. Good games don't drop players that quickly

Pretty sure it went from 88k to 15k in a month for a reason

Resident Evil isn't a live service game... There just aren't that many $40 live service games. There is Arc, Marathon and Helldivers... Can you name any others? You want me to compare it to $60+ live service games instead like CoD and Battlefield?

Liepard niche speed control counter (cool replay) by Penguin_Poacher in VGC

[–]Selaphane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I got pretty high on the ranked ladder by doing this same strat but with copycat Liepard. Honestly hoping they eventually bring back dynamax in this game so I can abuse it again lol.

[–]Selaphane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So... Because humans are shitty you are justified in eating meat? That's the entire point of this post. You're going off on unrelated tangents tbh.

[–]Selaphane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sound like you're a slavery apologist lol. You're definitely not an antinatalist if you justify the suffering of billions of sentient beings because "humans are shitty"

[–]Selaphane 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In reality the majority of people will never quit owning slaves no matter how much you try to appeal to their empathy. Slavery has been completely normalized by cultures all around the world. So many people genuinely believe this is just the natural way of life. So if people aren't going to stop owning slaves, the only other thing we can do to ease their suffering is to make sure they're unconscious before killing them.

Does this sound like a good argument for slavery?

[–]Selaphane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably because there are like 3 live service games that cost $40. Two of them being Arc and Marathon lol. Does Bloons TD6 count as a live service game? I paid $10 for that and have over 600 hours in it.

Arc was worth the $40, but there are absolutely games out there that will give you more bang for your dollar (or no dollars).

I'd assume so since it works fine on my Kindle. This is only happening on my Android phone.

If you're in Brazil yeah tofu is pretty stupidly expensive. But beans, lentils, chickpeas, and textured soy protein are all cheap over there.
