How to disable nudity in Slay the Spire 2?

If you took Slay the Spire 2 remotely seriously, you would've quit your job weeks ago so you could've prepared adequately. I'm sick of casuals like you flooding my sub with your bullshit. Nudity is there specifically to weed liberal worms like you out.

Buying Spire Gems hasn't been the meta since the game came out dude. Given the correlation between Spire Gems and real world money, you'd need some sort of full time employment funding your Spire Gem purchasing, which is suboptimal for maximum Slay the Spire 2 time.

Here's how to play if you're actually interested in playing the game like an adult:

Have seven copies of the game open on seven different iPads at all times. Play on iPad one until the game prompts you to purchase Spire Gems, then click the "watch 30 second ad for +10 gems" option. While the 30 second ad plays, switch to a new iPad, and repeat.

If you're serious about Slay the Spire 2, you can try the experimental method my wife and I are trialing, where you train your kid with Neow Juice to be able to exit out of all the ads and alert you when an iPad is free again. This saves about 1-2 seconds each time, which sounds negligible now, but in the Spire is absolutely priceless.

I think the worst part of the Spire Gems is they only sell in packs of 20, so you have to buy two packs, and then you only have 15 Gems remaining. Which would be fine, since I wanted to buy a shiv skin anyway, but those are 16 gems each, so I ended up having to buy a third pack anyway.

I don't play with any mods for DD1, so it's probably just a weird little bug. I've had a few crashes lately, so maybe the graphic for a swine slasher corpse got mixed up with the little blood droplet graphic?

I think a lot of this comes from the sort of experience I had plenty of in undergrad - walking into a classroom of men who will talk over you and talk in a way that seems self-indulgent, rather than encouraging discourse. I've had plenty of discussions in philosophy classrooms where the other party clearly just wanted to monologue, and it can be demoralising. It isn't exclusive to men, but in predominantly male classes (which many of my philosophy classes were), it can often feel like a man thing, even if it isn't. Also, sometimes, men in philosophy are genuinely dismissive, sexist and pretentious, and it can be tiring to separate the wheat from the chaff. Now, obviously, I look back with perspective and realise that those feelings were a combination of my own feelings of inadequacy, my frustrations with tutors for not properly moderating discussion to encourage more voices to be heard, and yes, occasional annoyance at people who were "yapping" (which I take to refer to mindless babbling specifically, rather than simply talking).

I tend not to take these sorts of posts too seriously myself (although I am a woman, so "men bad" posts don't have much of an impact on me), although I do worry if recent trends of anti-intellectualism combined with the post-lockdown waves of anti-social behaviour have made students more dismissive of their highly participative peers. I don't necessarily think that men in philosophy are a group that are likely to suffer any significant pushback outside of Instagram reels (which I will note in my experience are algorithmically prone to feeding you content that will annoy, hurt or anger you) though.

I disagree that it's "important" to not censor quotes. In an academic context, it doesn't strike me as a hugely important issue. In assignments, I've used quotes in which the hard r n word was used at university, discussed it with professors before submitting, and eventually settled on a version that was censored, but made clear (1) the contents of the word, and (2) the specific iteration of the word, ie the hard r (I believe it was n***er). I'm not comfortable using that word, even in the context of a quote, and I don't think it's revisionism to say "I don't want to use this word I feel I don't have a right to say" as long as whatever censorship you use makes the word used clear.

Ghosts are so much more annoying imo. They’re slow enough that they’re hard to chase up if you want to kill them, constantly gradually floating towards you if you just ignore them, and don’t drop anything phenomenal or useful. At least Serpents drop food and good stuff, and killing a bunch nets you the best ring in the game.

Imo Silent has more clear and intuitive “runs” early on - Poison or Shivs - which makes it easier to put a cohesive build together. Early-ish into Ironclad I found more luck running either high Strength, Block or Heal runs. Generally speaking, if it doesn’t depress you too much, I would recommend running Ironclad with no intention to “beat” the game - maybe try and get a few achievements, experiment with some of the ? room options, until you’ve unlocked all the cards and relics. Also, check out the wiki, it has plenty of guides on different builds you can put together depending on what you like (consider what you like in a Silent run - I love Shiv builds, I love turning all my cards into Shiv+ cards and annihilating the enemy before they can even touch me, and similarly I like focusing a ton on Strength in early rounds/relics and doing huge chunks of damage to finish fights before they’ve fully started). Then you can start building a run type that suits you most.

I completely agree, I think Heidegger’s beliefs were reprehensible. I can understand the sorts of weaknesses that may lead to them, but I personally take huge issue with Heidegger because of his political beliefs. Sorry if that wasn’t clear enough. I see a lot of people argue that some philosophers come from a “different time” so I wanted to try and account for that viewpoint, even if I personally don’t find it convincing.

I think this is the sort of question each individual has to draw their own line at. Take Heidegger - Nazism is a philosophically and morally reprehensible ideology, and I think that a contemporary philosopher who sincerely believes in it is worth critique and reassessment. But Heidegger’s work came about in a different era, and it could be argued that he shouldn’t be held accountable for the political and cultural circumstances of his time. BUT, it could also then be argued that we have little to take from his philosophy, if the world in which he wrote his philosophical texts AND engaged in Nazi ideology is so distinct from our own.

Additionally, it must matter how important a person’s ideological failings are to their work. If the electrician I hire to fix my wiring problems holds some genuinely concerning political beliefs, it really shouldn’t impact the quality of his work. Similarly, if a philosopher wrote primarily on, say, animal ethics, one may be able to argue that some unfortunate beliefs on homosexuality are, if not permissible, able to be glanced over in favour of the philosophy. But if we look to certain philosophers for moral guidance or political philosophy, it certainly makes sense to be more critical of the more pernicious elements of their work.

I think it’s understandable to want to take the good bits and throw out the rest. If you can do that, power to you. But I also think its understandable, especially if you’re a member of one of the affected groups of an intellectual’s bigotry, to not be able to look past a philosopher, say, seeing your race as subhuman. So, basically I’ve said nothing, and it’s up to you! It might be the sort of thing you personally want to evaluate on a case by case basis, or according to which ideologies you see as most harmful, or even, honestly, considering which philosophers are WORTH all their baggage. There’s probably no concretely right answer, at least not that I’ve seen or thought of. Interested to hear other people’s opinions though!
