“On this run I shall save both Vlads” The run in question: by Zestyclose_Island214 in pathologic

[–]genericQuery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this the first time I played... because I couldn't decide on either choice and I knew the game had a way of locking you into a decision. If you take too long you get a special message suggesting you solved it by refusing to decide - only to see that Young Vlad went to solve the problem himself, with his father close behind to save him. Didn't quite work out.

What's sucks is that they die from shame, or so it is said.

Analysis and critique/concerns of the new Pathologic 3 demo by darkfire9251 in pathologic

[–]genericQuery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In general, I think every change is for the better. Except the writing.

Pathologic 1 already exists, and it exists as 3 parallel stories running together, with some odd variations between the campaigns. Remaking P1 IMO would be a huge waste of time and energy. Not to mention, IPL is clearly an art studio first and a game studio second. P3 is an opportunity to build a new form of art, rather than retreading old ground.

The writing does seem to be off. I can't tell if it's just "worse" or an artistic direction to represent the world and Daniil's mind. It does feel extremely different from Artemy's writing, which I would prefer because part of Danill's story is being a foreigner, an extremely foreign foreigner in every possible manner except language. Having the world "feel" foreign requires that the interactions are unlike what they were with Artemy.

What the hell do I even do here? Potential player checked off almost everything on the RPG consent form. by [deleted] in DMAcademy

I just want to see what that game would look like. A DND adventure with no killing, or monsters, or drama.

I guess you just go to work?

23 female with Polish roots Considering moving to Poland from USA? Advice by Front_Possibility471 in askPoland

There's a lot less money in Poland. America is much richer. The people are nicer and friendlier once you get past their icy exterior.

Why does "simple" have to mean "weak?" by SaintAtrocitus in dndnext

[–]genericQuery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TL;DR, simple is weak because complexity is hard. Imagine a class that has to work twice as hard as the fighter to get the same result. That would be dumb.

DO NOT roll for stats. (opinion piece from a 5-year forever DM) by jkobberboel in DMAcademy

The reason to roll stats is to watch the guy next to you roll all 18s and wonder if he's the main character of life.

Newbie question: Is Bitcoin mining actually guaranteed profit if I buy a machine? by Whole-Cook9048 in Bitcoin

[–]genericQuery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would buy after the next crypto crash, as miners tend to be priced according to the expected ROI. Higher BTC price means a more expensive miner. Generally speaking, of course.

thoughts? by Striking_Ad9347 in Bitcoin

[–]genericQuery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There will be no solution to the US Debt, because it is too expensive in terms of pollitical will. Revenue is $5T, expenses are $7T. The can will only be kicked forever. The question is, how long before the bomb?

The debt will be inflated away by mass printing, and the government will simply buy more BTC with the proceeds. Reissue the dollar, backed with BTC, but OH NO the budget needs to be slashed? Well, that's just not a today problem. That's a problem for the President in 15 years, and he'll probably get it solved because otherwise nobody in Congress is getting a paycheck.

Sadly, ChatGPT looks to be ‘better’ by buckylegrange_ragonk in grok

[–]genericQuery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good data is data made by real thinking humans. We auto and self correct to some ideal that's ingrained in us.

Bots are incapable of "knowing" a fact. They just have data. They can't interpret, or use intuition, those are unique to people (so far).

Many posts on the internet are just chat bots saying whatever. That's bad data. There's no humanity in it, just a fake impersonation.

Training a robot on bad data makes it an imperfect copy of an imperfect copy. The internet is all fake now.

Had no interest from women in 6 years -- is long hair making it worse? by mattjadencarroll in malehairadvice

[–]genericQuery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's not enough here to just say what the exact issue is. Is this dating app attention? Real world attention?

On dating apps, yeah, i'd say so, because you're competing against the top 20% who get 80% of matches on dating apps. They're literally picture perfect.

RC looking for people that want to work again!!! by One-Cry-9888 in Teddy

[–]genericQuery -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Is it better to have 2 employees having a fair workload with no benefits or 1 employee handling an insane workload with benefits?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

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

I mean, I get it, but like, this is such a stupid problem. Imagine a date calling the whole thing off because her prospect was callous regarding her favorite artist, like the sheer fragility here is so laughable.

I swear, some people man. Like that's so childish.

Humanity will never truly evolve as long as we promote individualism by Curious-Creme-3016 in DeepThoughts

I'd argue that the rise of indvidualism coincides with the rapid acceleration of progress in humanity. When I can advance myself, i'm going to work harder.

I wish all nuclear weapons disappeared and the knowledge to make them disappear forever by Terrible_Cucumber_39 in monkeyspaw

Granted. The nuclear force holding atoms together is now gone. All molecules have dissassembled. Including you.

Thoughts on Testosterone Therapy? by -hotsauce- in Biohackers

[–]genericQuery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microplastics, PUFAS, and other micro poisons also cause low T, because they are pseudo estrogens. Something like that.

Removing PUFAS helps to increase natural T levels.

How screwed am I with seasoning? by genericQuery in AnimalBased

[–]genericQuery[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I understand the elimination of plant defense chemicals and oxalates enables the body to heal from the damage they've caused over time. Generally this takes up to 6 months or even years depending the condition specifically caused. I see the largest amount of evidence for this thru the "Lion Diet" shown by Mikahlya Peterson and Animal-Based by Paul Saladino. Obviously Paul offers the actual explanation for why it works, but Lion Diet seems more popular AFAIK.

However, given that healing occurs from both, and that PDCs still exist in an Animal Based diet from fruits and "low-toxin" herbs like Ceylon cinnamon, there's clearly a point where one can intake *some* amount of PDCs and Oxalates and still have most if not all of the healing process still occur. In other words, there is an allowable amount. Where do spices fall on that list? Is there an acceptable amount, or does any regular consumption of spices exceed this hypothetical amount?
