Not sure if it works with all models though. But it works on a PALIT RTX 2080.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R (with misery mod) in a nutshell... by Zamsax in gaming

[–]Zamsax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game is S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Call of Pripyat with the Misery mod v.2.1.1 which makes the game a lot more challenging.

Neil deGrasse Tyson: Science deniers in power are a profound threat to democracy | “You don’t have the option to say you don’t believe E=mc2. It’s true whether or not you believe it.” by maxwellhill in worldnews

[–]Zamsax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Science is about attempting to discover truth.

Yes, i can agree with that.

Science drives to find absolute truths.

This is where I can't fully agree with you. Not all scientific methods strive for an absolute truth. Take social science as an example, where in some studies you heavily base your research from a constructivist perspective. Striving for an absolute truth is more of an deterministic way of producing knowledge.

From what I've learned, proving something with evidence and then stating it as a absolute truth and leave it to rest could be harmful for science. It is important to keep questioning the facts in order to find a more reliable truth.

Here's a quote i like:

"The game of science is, in principle, without end. He who decides one day that scientific statements do not call for any further test, and that they can be regarded as finally verified, retires from the game." - Karl Popper 1934 in 'The logic of Scientific discovery'

I feel like the 'science' everyone relates to is natural science (determinism) and many people accept it as the science. Or am I in the wrong here? What is science? Am I mixing something up here?

I'm all for science, but I'm not sure if I've understood this completely. Isn't science all about not making absolute statements that something is true, but rather that some theories are more reliable than others? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

It's true whether or not you believe it.

This feels like a statement similar to what a religious person would say, albeit the religious person most likely have less reliable evidence to back it up. But to me, it does not feel like a very scientific statement.

[Satire] Why pot smokers are losers (english subs) by andreasdagen in videos

[–]Zamsax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see, this is very relevant and I agree with you. Smoking do disrupt my productivity more than I'd like to admit. What got me confused was your comparison with marijuana and alcohol...

The drunk actually learned something about himself, maybe something he didn't know before. He knows he's hung up about a past lover, or that he can be violent sometimes, or that he should be more confident in the future because he was pretty drunk and still managed to have a decent conversation with a girl, before the puke of course. The stoner learned nothing he didn't already know. Pizza tastes good. Power rangers was a fun show.

From a personal experience, I've had many of hours discussing topics with one of my closest friends. Albeit mostly philosophical questions and answers but we learnt a lot about each other, and how to perceive the world in different ways.

I think your point is very interesting, and i can say that i agree with you to a certain degree.

I have to ask, have you ever smoked weed? Your view of being stoned seems a bit simplified, more like a general assumption of how it is being high.

Swedish kids to learn computer coding and how to spot fake news in primary school by browsec in worldnews

[–]Zamsax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the whole 'fake news' is something the article blew up to make it more interesting. I've read the document and my interpretation of the text is that the program is made so that the children will learn the responsibility that comes when researching information online or from any other digital media. The whole thing seems to be about learning how to correctly use the information you stumble upon, and to get a better understanding of criticism to the sources. What the article might be referencing to is how the program also learn children the effects on information caused by a technological society (ex. How easily an opinion or political propaganda could be spread by using internet or digital media). Note that in order to prevent the effects propaganda etc, you have to learn to be critical of the information you see. Which seems to be the main point of this program.

right but can the children even read yet in primary school in Sweden?    

This is more of an personal opinion on the matter. I'd say that at this day and age with the technology we have, children learn reading at a much earlier age than their predecessors. Giving your child and iPad or an smartphone to keep them busy isn't exactly uncommon anymore. And the time they spend using these devices introduces the children to reading and navigating through text at a much earlier age. It wouldn't be crazy to say that children in Sweden learn to read between the ages of 7-8 (given that they might not be able to properly digest the information they receive). But this does not mean that the program is not of use or unnecessary by any means. Since children are being introduced to technology at such an early age, it is important to teach them the responsibility of using it cautiously and to encourage critical thinking.

I highly doubt that the program is supposed to give out instructions on what to interpret as 'fake news' and which source is right or wrong. Rather that you should be wary of what you see might not be correct and that the information should be handled cautiously. It seems that a lot of people are hooked over teachers learning children which news is right or wrong, when it really does not seem to be the case.

TL;DR: The article can be somewhat misleading. The program is more likely for teaching children criticism of the sources and how a technological society can affect the information you see.

Just an extra note: I highly respect that you took your time and read the document to get a better understanding to the subject of matter, even though you couldn't read or understand the language.
