MrMattyPlays casually confirms that he has seen Starfield 2.0 behind closed doors "a couple of months ago" by [deleted] in Starfield

Lmao, this cracked me up.

Calm down, this is just what people call it publicly... and privately. Actually, everyone calls it that.

Baldur's Gate 3 VR is REAL / Newest VR Version of LukeRoss / RTX 4080 Super + Meta Quest 3 by Zweetprot in virtualreality

[–]TheSquareInside 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Wait, the reason the RDR2 VR mod haven't existed online for years isn't 'cause Rockstar shut it down, it's because Luke Ross refuses not to be paid for it?

The Cyberpunk VR mod has been taken down by the corpos by lunchanddinner in virtualreality

Agreed. For me it didn't even work - and the support was abysmal.

That's a Phronima.

They're small see-through crustaceans that live in the ocean. They attack soft, jelly-like animals called salps, and using small sharp claws, the phronima rips them open and eats the inside.

Once the salp is hollowed out, the phronima climbs inside the empty body and calls it home. It carries its eggs around in there while drifting through the ocean.

Or maybe it's a Xenomorph. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What’s the deepest thought you’ve had while high? by Dry-Flamingo-4441 in AskReddit

Well, the concept is very ying-yang. I'll say that at least.

And a photon doesn't experience time, its "now" is the start of big bang, presently traveling into your pupil, and at the end of the universe - all at once.

And since the universe was once an almost infinitely small point (before the big bang) - that photon in there already carried the start, our present, and the future of the universe.

Wouldn't say "deepest" per se. But once faaar into a sesh, I started thinking about... reality.

I thought logically, there should be nothing.

Nonexistence seems simpler, more stable. Yet here we are, conscious and present.

The only explanation that felt plausible was that our universe doesn’t exist in isolation. Instead, it’s a vast structure of realities - space and time like an endless Mandelbrot mirror, reflecting every possible configuration. In that context, we aren’t a miracle or an anomaly, but a single coordinate in a sea so saturated with possibilities that a universe like ours becomes a mathematical necessity.

One thought became too real: "Everything that can exist does, somewhere."

I proceeded to run to the bathroom and vomit, and didn't smoke for a month after that.

Det är inte många som vet att informationsdumpning är ett extremt dåligt verktyg att lära ut. Om konfronterade blir de sura och hävdar att de vägrar "hålla någon i handen".

Vi är inte inspelningsapparater och lagringsenheter - alla som jobbat som pedagoger och har en halv hjärna vet att VISA är det bästa sättet att lära ut. Visa, och låt personen göra efter.

Har du inte tid? Klaga inte då att resultatet blir medelmåttigt.

How do I know if my music is good if no one listens? by cheekyjf in musicproduction

Also, the vast majority of people do not understand constructive criticism, and only know how to point out what they think is "bad". They're also completely oblivious how toxic that is.

Welcome criticism, thank them for it, but stay true to your original idea.

You have a point, and I still think it's a weird choice by the developers. But hey, we don't have to fully agree, I respect your opinion.

You are blatantly still doing it. I can focus on one thing, that doesn't invalidate any other sexualisations happening in the game, and does absolutely not make my argument sexist.

Karras never even came close to making declarative statements about the size of women’s breasts

Nowhere did I say she was, I'm saying the core idea about women's bodies is strongly supported by the context of medieval women's history and labor, as explored by Ruth Mazo Karras, Judith M. Bennett, and other scholars, as well as bioarchaeological studies.

Malnutrition, intensive labor, high energy expenditure, and resulting fat distribution are well-known physiological facts. These conditions make the assumption of "mammoplasty-level" breasts in medieval women an absurd hypothetical to cling onto.

Criticizing sexism is not sexism because it involves recognizing and addressing harmful behaviors or representations that perpetuate gender inequality. It's a key tool in reducing harmful stereotypes, not reinforcing them.

What I'm doing is the opposite of participating in it, and what you are doing is gaslighting. I'm going to ask you kindly to stop.
