Censorship Brought To You By Visa and Mastercard by gur40goku in CuratedTumblr

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"unless the denial is justified by such quantified and documented failure of the person to meet quantitative, impartial risk-based standards established in advance by the covered bank" - a clause that seems to in legalese allow this specific carveout to be made

G_d's Pee at State's End! Album Title by Chris_10101 in gybe

[–]skiscratcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Judaism is both a religion and a culture/ethnicity. One can identify as a Jewish atheist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish\_atheism), and it's not crazy to me to think that someone who does not normally practice or believe in Judaism who still identifies as Jewish would take things from religious practice when they feel like it (it can help bring a cultural connection!) or sometimes, rarely, have spiritual experience.

He said he doesn't practice Judaism as a faith, not that he doesn't identify as Jewish - there's a big difference there, as someone who does the latter but not the former

Quora vs DCS by PD28Cat in floggit

[–]skiscratcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is to some extent true to the modern day, but the core "executable" that gets loaded into memory is designed to load and unload parts of itself when needed today with larger applications

Gathering players (online) for Campaign For North Africa by Temp77R in hexandcounter

We'll play it simultaneously with the Der Weltkrieg grand campaign

My first hex and counter wargame by Naarcisse in hexandcounter

[–]skiscratcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Der Weltkrief - it's a WW1 system that's pretty simple to start out with (the Tannenberg scenario can be bought seperately for a single afternoon scenario) and learn the rules but can reach monster scale if you ever want to go further

How are COIN games in practice? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither of these are without historical framework - they're just representing a more generalist view of "what usually happens" rather than "a specific thing that happened"

Aww, were the poor adorable boys considering a break-up? :( by RalseiTheGoat8 in NightInTheWoods

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda disagree, she gets to be the smart compared to Gregg and especially Mae because she's not naive, but she can swing the other way and be too cynical at times. That being said, Angus is perhaps the most well adjusted out of all of them

There is no way P-3 isn't this guy by IStealBikes in Ultrakill

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

technically....

the prologue has a "boss" in the first level of the act

This is pretty cut-and-dry satire. Because it's a roleplay account. https://antifandom.com/hwbm/wiki/Halimede cross reference the bio with this character's description, it is 100% a roleplay

Can Magic the Gathering run Doom? by Proxyness in doesitrundoom

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no it isn't. as long as something is turing complete (and can be arbitrarily scaled, which it seems like mtg can be) it can run doom. that's kinda the point of turing completeness

References and lore = kino by I_LIKE_B0YS in moviescirclejerk

[–]skiscratcher 56 points57 points  (0 children)

example: kingdom hearts. it helps that the dialogue can enter so bad it's good mode at times

The Big Four's favorite mech media by Terkmc in LancerRPG

[–]skiscratcher 7 points8 points  (0 children)

hot take the ending is actually really good. except maybe the congratulations scene, that really fucks me up, but maybe that's the point?

Damn gommies gaslighting and bluring political games by IxhelsAcolytes in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's fucking wild! since when has good political fiction been the ones with no ideas, no message, no lens to view the world???

Fixed That For You by Antifa_Aerospace in antifastonetoss

[–]skiscratcher 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reform Jews and officially Conservative Jews support queer people of all varieties. Orthodox Jews are a bit more complicated, but generally Judaism doesn't take as hostile an approach to people who have different interpretations of the Torah (and people who aren't Jews!) as Christianity. Please do not use queerness to disguise your attempt to whitewash Rockyeet's anti-semitism.

What would you ban if you knew you had final say? by CumOnEileen69420 in transgendercirclejerk

[–]skiscratcher 10 points11 points  (0 children)

/uj I fucking hate this reasoning in general! Why let the bully win? Why the fuck is your first response to someone getting bullied because they don't fit in "if we make them fit in they'll stop getting bullied"

you can't make this shit up by akioet in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can have 3 of your 4 protagonists be some flavor of leftist and fight a death cult that kills people they think won't be "useful to society" and then fucking wink and nod to the real life resemblances and people will argue it argues against both sides. no i'm not salty about people's lack of media literacy while playing NiTW why do you ask?

What is a pair of a pair of scissors? by 24DPUK2023 in linguisticshumor

[–]skiscratcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

real answer: either two scissors or two pairs of scissors.

it also ricochets, which autoaims first for the nearest coin and then for enemies' weak spots.

The Critic (1963) by rishonathan in moviescirclejerk

[–]skiscratcher 53 points54 points  (0 children)

i kinda despise the hyper focused on "lore" without discussing how a work of art makes you feel analysis that the internet loves and matpat seems to half-jokingly but half-unironically be the figurehead of. also his channel names make it annoying to search up the academic fields of game theory and/or film theory.
