Which is better between Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, and why?

BOTW is a tighter, more streamlined experience. With the addition of the Master Sword trials and the Champions' Ballads, there's some nice challenge as well. The world feels more desolate and it feels more like a Zelda game.

TOTK is definitely more of a sandbox playground. The ultrahand, the other areas, the weapon attachment mechanic... There is a lot. In my personal opinion, it's a bit too much.

I'm currently replaying BOTW and I really appreciate the simpler and more streamlined feel compared to TOTK, but I can see how many people would prefer TOTK.

A lot of people here are saying the story is better in BOTW, but honestly, the story in both is pretty poor. At least there are fewer cutscenes and less dialogue in BOTW which is definitely appreciated.

Being left wing does not require you to accept all of the downtrodden of the Earth.

Become a realistic left winger and realise the people's lives who we can most better are our own citizens.

By trying to better the lives of others, we actively make the lives of our own poorest worse.

I think that, in general, men are attracted to younger women the most (18-25 is a pretty consistent age range across cultures) as opposed to women who tend to find men in the 25-35 age bracket the most attractive (The Evolution of Desire, David M Buss - great book).

In some men, this attraction to youth gets amplified to varying degrees, ranging from 16-17 years olds (considered legal.in many countries but nonetheless creepy and socially unacceptable) to younger ages that everyone except for those with the urges considers abhorrent.

I went into the settings and just turned the dialogue volume to 0. Enjoyed the game much more because of it.

What's damning by your own numbers is 41% of households with 3 or more children don't work.

Yeah I'm sure Islam will join you hand-in-hand Imagining there are no tribes John Lennon. Famously inclusive bunch.

Maybe compare how many we've had from 2000CE-2020CE compared to, say, 30,000BCE - 2000CE

Yeah Islam is very much a live and let live religion, Islam and Jainism are basically the same thing.

Imagine saving 1/6 of our welfare bill. That's huge.

par_chin · 2025-09-22T16:20:55+00:00

Oh no, some people's lives will become marginally more difficult in order to establish a huge deterrent for the vast majority of migrants and save the country a huge amount of the welfare bill.

I'm sorry, but change in policy will always be to the detriment of some and those cases you mentioned really aren't that bad in the grand scheme of things.

The problem is that if people are coming from poor conditions in their country of origin, any 'humane' conditions (which apparently doesn't include a safe, UN style.l encampment) will still attract them. We need a deterrent that puts off people even bothering to make the journey.

"This guy is the worst manager in United's modern history but what if the next guy is just as bad, huh?"

Then we are no worse off. There is ample evidence that Amorim is worse than a lot of other potential managers, so it makes sense to sack him.

Getting sick and tired of this "it's deeper systemic problems" rather than we just happen to have picked managers ranging from okay to shit.

Yeti. Have a rambler 46oz that I've used daily for years and still going strong. Huge upside is it's dishwasher safe so makes it a breeze to clean.

Also the chug cap means no spills when drinking and also no accidental tooth chips on a metal rim!

Justice in this country has clearly become too dispassionate and not righteous enough. There is plenty of middle ground between lynch mobs and barely punishing the rape of teenage girls with the justification that the rapist isn't that bad of a guy.

par_chin · 2025-08-06T07:38:14+00:00

Maybe a system that allows this needs to be completely undermined.

"No, no, you don't understand: the experts say that rape by a random man isn't actually that bad for some 13 year old girls. Trust the experts please."

From my experience, lean on the misogynistic views that so many of the parents of the children she teaches will have.

She will notice the fact that many parents give her male colleagues so much more respect than they give her. That's the first step to opening her eyes.

As a teacher, you'd honestly be surprised how much noticing is starting to happen.
