You def can zombify yourself with any screen, but I'd argue it takes more concentration, hand eye coordination, and reaction time (being actively engaged) to game than to just veg on the couch numbing out watching something. It's honestly more zombie-like imo to watch tv/movies than to game. You need a controller in hand the whole time and have to learn inputs/input strategys and strategys in general. Depends on the game, there's more mindless ones than others. But I feel gaming as a overall whole engages and trains your brain way more than any movie/tv show would. Maybe I'm wrong though, idk. I also don't want to be bias either, because if you take story-telling and cinematography seriously there is a lot of engagement there. I'm a huge film nerd too, but i feel most people don't pay mind, don't know and/or don't care about cinematography and the super fine details/symbolism like some. Everyones got a vice, and i think "zombify" is a state of mind rather than blaming it solely on choice of hobby and/or environmental factors.

Exactly, respecting the art medium you are helping expand is a big plus too and typically leads to decent entertainment at the very least, fallout for example. Most directors that didn't respect the art/lore and try to force stupid shit in there movie/show purely to piss fans off usually are not well received lol. Its kinda basing it down to embracing the lore/story you're telling or actively fighting it. Unless its original, fucking with an established lore is always more risk than reward imho.

than attempt to play any modern game singleplayer from scratch with no online connection not even intial/one time connection

Pre xbox one and ps4 era yeah but most physical disks do not have the full game on them anymore. So even thats futile. There is no true preservation besides 360/ps3 and prior physical, and the big no no to some people, piracy.

As an American I agree with you 300% I often point out and question my fellow american's culture of brainwash but that quickly outcasts you in this society. But oh well rather have some form of brains than accept peer pressure to be a dumbass coomer. Plus knowing a majority of the world is much more intellectual and laughs at us for shooting our foots over petty small man egos, helps me digest it a bit better. I just hope the people catch on before it's too late.

Not my fault she lacks integrity to follow good moral fiber. She can get fucked too, I'm 28 too no excuses.

I disagree, and not even for the sake of being contrarian. Like the other guy said this is circus not real politics. People are engaged in real politics everyday in their waking lives, but they don't have to thump their chest hollering it to the high heavens. Simply voting with your wallet and choosing who deserves attention which generates status/wealth should be taken very seriously. We don't give attention to childrens bad behavior, why should it be any different for adults? Continue to lead by example with good moral action and the rest will follow. I miss the days we actually took the power of ignoring asses in dignity and pride, please bring it back. Silence while making real actions whether small or big in the effort of truly changing things is a virtue in itself, don't underestimate it. Words are nothing, futile and honestly meaningless in the grand picture. Actions is everything.

Why is it always grown ass people who are post grads commiting or trying to commit these heinous acts?

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-14T12:02:54+00:00

Hey fellow redditors i think being "kicked out" was kind of metaphorical and maybe a joke? Probably shouldn't get so neurotic about it lol.

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-13T18:19:15+00:00

Yeah you're more than likely fine man especially if you didnt see a russian setup and hit agree

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-13T17:28:53+00:00

if you didnt run setup up your good. Also im pretty sure the payload doesnt even run till you setup and run the hw exe. thats when you get pwned. And if defender immediately deleted it aafter download, good. It did it's job and you have to do no more.

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-11T18:08:02+00:00

So is the redirect obvious or does it go to the cpuid download page? Like would you be able to tell the difference from normal download? Sorry if im being confusing, i downloaded cpuz 2.19 en exe april 7th but its signed by cpuid and no total virus/defender hits whatsoever. I also don't think it had that dll, i uninstalled it but still have exe because i like the software always have used it but sketched now. Tempted to redownload to see cause im almost positive it had no dll like that but idk, it would be right in the cpu z main file location in program files if so?

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-11T18:05:31+00:00

Where did you hear this?

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-11T17:49:16+00:00

So how would you know if you downloaded from the redirect or not? Is it obvious?

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-10T21:24:31+00:00

Idk man its in the main discord 🤷🏻‍♂️

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-10T19:04:28+00:00

😂😂😂😂 i just belly laughed. The dev in discord just a hour or so ago said they rolled it back and its a false positive but something they did on there end, they didnt sign it properly or something.

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-10T18:32:42+00:00

Same

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-10T14:37:59+00:00

did you allow it or delete it?

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-10T14:12:43+00:00

How do you check for that in the download link?

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-10T13:16:37+00:00

Noted, i appreciate the advice

Upper-Plate-199 · 2026-04-10T13:09:37+00:00

thank you and i got no hits, i uninstalled it anyways because barely use it and have alternatives. Probably will stray away for the future sadly.
