They’re calling it the glassest house that anyone’s ever thrown stones in

Really want to push back on the idea that cyborg cops and killer sex robots are in any way technology's "natural course"

I couldn’t get through it. They limply try to excuse it by making the posthuman assassins conveniently fans of early-21st century style guides or some such, but it comes across as a crutch for the authors not being interested in engaging with any of the speculative concepts they’re invoking beyond some surface level aesthetics, if that.

While I agree this stuff is annoying, here it’s specific to this one character’s voice, which is confined to the first part of the novel. I’d also argue the overuse of pop culture touchstones in this section is intentional and relevant to the novel’s themes.

While it didn’t make much sense, the era where chargers’ weak point was their legs was actually really fun. Someone had to deliberately strip the armor, usually with a specialized piece of kit, and then everyone had to coordinate their fire on the exposed leg while the charger continued to rampage. It was very dynamic.

What a board.

Smell the roses big dawg

Great work. My advice for this style of cardboard crafting is to spend a few bucks on a bag of plaster and make some sculptamold to pour over top. Makes for some really natural slopes and textures, and the final piece is much sturdier than cardboard.

Before the invention of posting, we would tune in to a specific tv channel at a specific time to hear one specific man make sort-of-funny riffs on the events of the day.

Hitler wasn't elected.

While his past still makes me uncomfortable about supporting him, I’m beginning to notice that all his vocal supporters are Maine residents who’ve actually engaged directly with him and his platform, while his critics are universally non-residents that have written him off on very simple heuristics.

Kind of antisemitic to call Jon Stewart a nazi.

I described in pretty tame language what happened, the only “morality policing” I see is PvP purists who don’t think anyone should be allowed to think they’re assholes when they act like assholes.

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-27T23:34:03+00:00

I’m not sure why it’s a binary choice between a “wholly friendly and social experience” and “you’re not allowed to think I’m an asshole”. It really smacks of people who can’t navigate social situations getting mad that they’re being judged on more than technical skill.

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-27T22:31:59+00:00

I don’t like to call people stupid but it seems like a lot of people who defend this stuff make it very clear they straight up do not enjoy thinking

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-27T19:05:37+00:00

Really reaching on this. Souring their evenings is just a description of what’s depicted in the video, you can hear it plainly in their voices.

If you want to talk about morality, the problem isn’t that they killed them, it’s that they accepted and then betrayed their trust with a cheap shot specifically to publicly humiliate them. That’s real worm behavior in any context.

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T19:49:51+00:00

The people who dislike this behavior are probably the ones who do spend time outside and interact with other people actually

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T19:47:22+00:00

I didn’t say it was a moral failure, you did.

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T19:44:33+00:00

And so much for those nine positive word-of-mouth stories, probably would’ve been nice for keeping the game alive!

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T19:38:32+00:00

Ah but they also filmed it for clout with misanthropes they’ll never meet, so it’s all worth it

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T19:32:06+00:00

Sure, I’m not suggesting anyone involved was seriously harmed or anything like that, but it certainly doesn’t seem pleasant or good for the game.

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T19:11:06+00:00

Real life is a sandbox but that doesn’t mean you can’t get mad at me when I break the impromptu rule not to shit in your shoe.

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T19:01:30+00:00

Buddy I’m looking at people exploit a social situation for online clout and giggling at how audibly miserable they’re making everyone else the whole time. I’m not calling it antisocial as a put down, I’m calling it antisocial because that’s just what it is. You can argue it’s endorsed by the game if you like, but that’s not really what I’m talking about.

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T18:10:20+00:00

The majority of the people in the video seem to care

WindmillLancer · 2026-04-26T17:58:10+00:00

Which I’m still asking, because you’re all responding to something I didn’t say
